From Kim Min-jeong to Kang Soo-yeon, Best 5 child actors

2008/05/15 | Permalink |

The futures of many child stars were generally depressing.

The childish image and the weight of the years were obstacles for child stars to become adult actors.

But even among them, there are stars who have succeeded in transforming into adults. The IS Entertainment Team has picked out the best 5 actors who started out as child stars.

The first is the heroine of "New Heart", Kim Min-jeong.

Kim Min-jeong, who's charm comes from her big eyes, debuted in 1990 when she was eight, with MBC Best Theater "Widow". In 1992, she received the 'Child Actor Award' from KBS, received the 'Youth Award' in 1998, and received much love for her smart acting. Her official change to adult acting came in 2005 with the drama "Fashion 70s" and in 2006 with the movie "Forbidden Quest".

Especially in "Forbidden Quest", she had a daring exposure scene, and fully separated from her innocent, childish image.

The second is Moon Geun-yeong, who is transforming from the nation's younger sister to e...| More

Why the uncle-niece-like couples in dramas and movies?

2008/03/13 | Source | Permalink |

Movie actress Moon Geun-yeong (21)'s comeback drama, SBS "The Garden of Wind" might star Park Shin-yang (40) as the male leading role. Their age difference is 19 years.

Moon Geun-yeong has acted with Kim Joo-hyeok (36) in "Love Me Not" and Park Geon-hyeong (31) in "Innocent Steps". A ten year difference is standard. It is also interesting that she has acted with no one her age except when she starred as Song Hye-kyo (26)'s younger character.

The same goes for Ko Ah-ra (18). After graduating from the teen drama "Sharp", she acted with Yoon Kye-sang (30), who graduated from an idol group. Leaving her roles as the rebellious daughter and the innocent girl, she is acting with older men. She is currently acting in MBC "Who Are You - Drama"

At first, it was surprising, but now, the age difference between actors and actresses are becoming natural. It is like getting used to scratchy old clothes after wearing them for a long time. It is also like how the stinging smell of ammonia in a...| More

Moon Geun-yeong Returns to TV Screen

Staff Reporter

Actress Moon Geun-yeong, 21, will return to the television screen with the epic drama "The Painter of Wind".

Returning to TV screens after five years, she will play the lead role of Sin Yun-bok, a painter who disguises herself as a man. Sin Yun-bok is a painter who lived during the Joseon Kingdom (1392-1910) and was known for realistic and delicate depictions of daily life.

The painter was known as a male, but a fictional historical novel "The Painter of Wind", written by Lee Jung-myeong and published in 2007, raised the question of whether Sin might be a woman dressed as a man.

"When I first read the novel, I just thought it was a story about the genius painters Kim Hong-do and Sin Yun-bok. However, I realized that there might be more secrets hidden in the drawings and I couldn't put the book down", Moon said in a press release.

The drama will explore the life of this genius artist and mysteries hidden in the paintings. Other characters, ...| More

'Shine' takes plot from documentary

2007/11/05 | Source | Permalink |

Korean theater has been introducing a number of new musical genres -- from moviecals to musical thrillers -- this year to satisfy audiences who crave something different.

Musical producer Kim Dal-jung presents, for his serious fans, a new musical genre with "Shine", a musical based on a TV documentary series. The musical "Shine" is now playing at Sadari Art Center in Daehangno.

"Shine" is the latest musical for Kim, who has been gaining popularity among musical followers with his recent productions "Innocent Steps", "Thrill Me" and "Finding Kim Jong-wook".

Taking the story of KBS's documentary series "Ingan Geukjang" subtitled "Sungtan's 12th Christmas", the musical follows a family consisting of a father who is a poor street entertainer; a mother suffering from a mental disease; and a 12-year-old boy who loves his parents as they are.

The documentary-turned-musical pushes emotional buttons just as effectively as it did five years ago on TV.

It starts by telling the stor...| More
