Guiyeoni became an overnight sensation with her internet novellas that were adapted into silver screen features, such as "Temptation of Wolves", "The Guy was Cool", and "Do Re Mi Fa Sol La Si Do". The "Guiyeoni Syndrome" is about to spread once again with her new novel on teen romance, "Searching for an Angel".

This story was also published as a series for cellular phone services. It's about a female high school student, Park Seon-min, who can no longer feel emotions due to a poor relationship with her parents and an even worse one with an ex-boyfriend.

Seon-min's best friend is Lee Ha-young, and she learns that a first generation Korean-Japanese boy named Kang Chan-su has flown in from Japan to meet Ha-young. Chan-su is a former host at a ladies' club in Japan, and he brings along another handsome host, Shou Shinojaki. The story tells the tale of love and curiosity involving the four.

The author not only tells the tale through the young eyes of a teenager, but also weaves in...| More

Actors who starred in movies written by Guiyeoni have become top stars in the movie industry. These stars are Kang Dong-won, Jo Han-seon, Song Seung-heon, and Jang Geun-seok.

"Temptation of Wolves" helped Kang Dong-won and Jo Han-seon, who were new actors then, to rise to the top. They played high school students. Kang Dong-won captured the hearts of high school girls with his perfect looks, and Jo Han-seon captured audiences with his tough, rebel image. After this movie, they have been cast in various movies and have become top actors.

Song Seung-heon was in "The Guy Was Cool" as a rebellious high school student and acted with Jeong Da-bin, who is now deceased. He played a trustworthy boyfriend who always helped his girlfriend to get out of trouble. Although he was rough to other friends, he was affectionate toward his girlfriend. He plays a charismatic character in "Fate", which is playing now.

The movie "Do Re Mi Fa Sol La Si Do", released on April 3, is up to Jang Geun-seo...| More

Upcoming film titled Sookmyeong (English translation: "Fate") has been pre-sold for this year's highest sum. The Japanese film company Formula entertainment obtained the Japanese rights from the Korean nTorino for US$ 2 million.

Korean film exports have been slow this year and the sum payed for Sookmyeong is not particularly high compared to sales figures from previous years. Especially sales to Japan have been under pressure, however, films starring popular Hallyu stars like KWON and BAE Yong-joon are still in demand in Japan.

Sookmyeong is an action noir in the hands of director KIM Hae-gon. The film revolves around a group of friends and explores the darker side of friendship. Filming is halfway.

KWON ("Almost Love", Spirit of Jeet Keun Do: "Once upon a Time in Highschool") plays the lead and he is supported by his friend SONG Seung-heon ("The Guy Was Cool"). KIM wrote the acclaimed scenario for "Failan" and directed "Between Love and Hate" ("The Unbearable Lightness of Da...| More

A memorial for Jeong Da-bin at Asan Medical Center in Seoul. [NEWSIS]

Jeong Da-bin, 27, was found hanged with a bath towel at her boyfriend's house in Samseong-dong, southern Seoul, on Saturday. The popular actress's death was reported by her boyfriend, whom police did not identify.
Police said they found no suicide note, but believe on the basis of their investigation so far that she took her own life. Her friend said Ms. Jeong had suffered some career reverses lately and was under stress.
Her family and her agency, sounding somewhat skeptical, urged the police yesterday afternoon to investigate further and conduct an autopsy.
Ms. Jeong made her debut as a television actress in 2000 and cemented her fame in a TV drama, "Cat on the Roof", in 2003. She also starred in a romantic comedy movie, "The Guy Was Cool", in 2004. She had not been seen much professionally in recent months, however.
If, as the police concluded, Ms. Jeong's death was a suicide, some mental health experts sai...| More

Films produced from 'Internet published novels' have become a trend in Korea.

Two Internet novel adapted films, He Was Cool - The Guy was Cool (Geunomeun Meoshit seot da) and Romance on their own - Temptation of Wolves (Nukdae eui Yoohok) were released almost at the same time this summer. Both films' original stories were written by the same person: the popular on-line storywriter, Lee Yun-se (better known by her penname, Guiyeoni). Her new on-line serial story 'To My Boyfriend' has also been picked up for adaptation and other on-line stories such as 'Baekjowa Baeksu', 'Samsusaeng Sarang Iyagi', 'Oktapbang Goyangyi' (Cat in the Rooftop Room), 'Keanu Reeves Kkosigi', 'Saekma Jeonseol', 'Naesarang Iljinnyo', 'Mihonmo Iyagi', 'Naneun Aknyoilsubakae upda', are in development or pre-production stages to be produced as films.

The first popular on-line novel turned into a film was Toemarok (aka Soul Guardians)(1998); then the subsequent on-line novel adapted films such as My Sassy G...| More

The Guy Was Cool by Eleyna

T
his movie is a great comedy/drama. If you are a teen chick flick movie lover then i'm sure you will love this movie...although it is in a foreign language at least to me, on a scale of 1 to 5 i would have to rate it a 5!. Even though it is a teen movie i would recomend this movie to all ages. If you love action, drama, comedy and romance then this movie is the one for you!
