Kim Sun Ah leads her Girl Scouts

Check out the newly released promo poster for Kim Sun Ah’s (long-awaited) comeback project, the caper comedy Girl Scouts. She’s had a lot of hold-ups in the three years following her notable role as Samsoon in My Name Is Kim Samsoon, and the article draws our attention to her “perfect S-line” (as though we’d miss it!), having regained her slim curves after gaining anywhere from fifteen to twenty pounds to play overweight Samsoon (who soooo wasn’t even overweight).

Girl Scouts is described as a comedy that unfolds when the four lead women take off to recover the money stolen by the head of their organization, and plans to release in April. It seems like a fun, throwaway film, and it’s got to chafe that in the midst of her legal issues, Kim Sun Ah had for one reason or another given up roles in such hits as the sleeper romantic-comedy 200 Pound Beauty, legal thriller Seven Days (formerly titled Thursday’s Child), and currently popular sports movie The Best Moment of Our Lives.

Yun Eun Hye sings for Mighty Mouth

Former Baby Vox member, Yun Eun Hye returned to her K-pop roots, lending her vocals to the new hip-hop group, Mighty Mouth’s title song “I Love You” in between CF runs.

Produced by K-pop veterans, Lee Hyundo and Joo Suk, Mighty Mouth is set to debut early next month.
I’m not sure what’s worse - Mighty Mouth’s idiotic name or Yun Eun Hye’s voice. Take your pick.

Honey Lee’s acting debut

Former Miss Korea Lee Ha-nui, otherwise known as Honey Lee, has been busy acting as a television broadcast MC and as a model for various CFs and clothing brands ever since she placed in the finals for last year’s Miss Universe pageant. And now she’s branching out into acting, preparing for her debut — in a musical.
Her rep explained that she’d considered making her acting debut in a drama or film, “but chose a musical in order to showcase her particular skills.” As you may know, she’s a noted classical musician, having majored in traditional music (gayageum, pansori) at Seoul National University. Not only that, she reportedly was in training as a vocalist under YG Entertainment prior to her Miss Korea win. She’ll begin rehearsals for the musical Nanta next week (note: further reading indicates that Nanta is somewhat loosely referred to as a musical; it’s more accurately described as “non-verbal performance,” conveying its message via music, dance, and movement, while incorporating a fair amount of traditional folk music elements).

No mp3 available, but for a look (and listen) at Honey Lee’s musical skills, here’s her much-buzzed-about performance at the recent Golden Disk Awards with Epik High, transforming their thoroughly modern “Fan” into something of a fusion artistic statement.

News bites: February 25, 2008

Actor-singer Lee Seung Gi broke a finger on the 23rd while filming his segment for the popular Happy Sunday variety program, and underwent surgery. Although he doesn’t think the injury is overly serious, he’ll most likely have stop his broadcast activities for the immediate future. Aw.

Actress and former Baby VOX popstarlet Yoon Eun Hye is singing for the first time in a long while since she left pop music to transition into a successful acting career. She lends her vocals to “I Love You,” the debut single for new rap duo Mighty Mouth (oops, not Mighty Mouse like I thought, which woulda been kinda more awesome) — but insists this does not indicate a return to her singer status.
After the recent massive oil spill, reports of local residents going so far as to commit suicide because of their troubles have reached a sympathetic Bada, who was moved by the people’s plight and is putting together a charity concert in the name of reviving the local economy of Mallipo Beach in western Korea.

Seems like Rain is in the news constantly for one reason or another — and now it’s because apparently the Chinese netizens are angry again. First it was over his participation in singing Samsung’s Olympics theme song — ’cause you know, the only people allowed to sing at any particular Olympics are the citizens of the country hosting it. Now they’re calling him “arrogant” because he turned down Chinese Olympics ambassador (and gold-medalist gymnast) Liu Xuan’s request for a song at an Olympics promotion press conference due to time constraints; they’re saying, “Liu Xuan was dishonored internationally” and “How long would it have taken to sing a few lines?” and “Koreans are impatient and give no leeway so they really seem rude often.” Ahh, nothing like the Olympics to foster discontent. Whatever happened to international harmony, fraternity, and the symbolic Olympic rings?

It’s common knowledge that actresses Han Ji Hye and Han Ye Seul are good friends — but who knew they’re also too good to mingle with the masses? Apparently the two go out clubbing — no drinks, just dancing — twice a year: once on each of their birthdays. Actor Lee Chun Hee recalled on a soon-to-air episode of Sang Sang Plus seeing the two at a club before they were famous, dancing together and ignoring any male attempts to approach them. Asked why, Han Ji Hye said that before their debuts, it was because “we had pride.” Afterward, it was because “we knew we were going to be actresses so we decided not to party with anyone else, just dance with the two of us.” Hm, I’m trying to figure out a way to interpret her answer as anything but bratty and stuck-up. Someone tell her pride and ego are different things.

Jang dong gun,Brad pitt and George cloomey

Jang Dong Gun's lips are favorable and are one of the most requested amongst patients. The survey included 20,000 plastic surgeons around the world and asked exactly which celebrities influence the choices of patients. Jang Dong Gun was included in a list full of A-list celebrities (alongside Brad Pitt, and George Clooney). Unfortunatly, he was the only Asian celebrity appeared in the list. So who's the most influential? Bradgelina (Brad Pitt & Angelina Jolie)of course! The world saving duo appeared in the most categories than any other celebrity.

Fly to the Sky as Guardian Angels

On February 22, Fly to the Sky acted as guardian angels of the day, to almost 30 orphans in Thailand.Don't get me wrong, the singing duo didn't go to Thailand to act as good Samaritans - they were actually there for a fan meeting concert, scheduled on February 23 at the Bangkok Central World Convention Center.But, despite going to Thailand for the fans, the duo initially did a good deed by spending time with the orphans at an orphanage just outside of Bangkok.The singers gave out t-shirts and souvenirs, and also gave them a mini-concert."Things may be hard now," the boys told the orphans. "But never forget how to smile."

A look at SBS’s upcoming “I Love You”

SBS’s current Monday-Tuesday drama, sageuk King and I, is coming to a close, and moving to replace it is the upcoming drama billed as “a lively and sweet love story for a different, new-generation couple,” I Love You. The romantic-comedy series is based on a manhwa of the same name, whose creator also wrote the manhwa upon which the upcoming drama Gourmet is based. Following in the newer trend, the 16-episode drama has already finished filming, meaning its production will have completed well before its premiere date in March.

Starring are Ahn Jae Wook (Oh Pil Seung Bong Soon Young, Star in My Heart) and Seo Ji Hye (Over the Rainbow) in a somewhat mismatched pairing — he’s 36 (counting by Western standards), she’s 23 — although the unlikeliness of the couple is part of the point. Her naive 21-year-old bank employee character meets his 35-year-old comic-book-writer character on the subway, and mistakes his behavior for harassment. Thus begins their relationship, which complicates when she becomes pregnant and he’s less than thrilled about it.

Also cast are Hwan Hee of pop ballad duo Fly to the Sky in his second acting gig (his first was alongside Seo Ji Hye in Over the Rainbow), who’ll be paired with new actress Park Hye Young, as well as philandering lawyer husband Gong Hyung Jin (who played philandering Sae Do from Dal Ja’s Spring) and his long-suffering wife, Jo Mi Ryung.

The drama differs from its original source — the manhwa starts with the couple’s marriage, whereas the drama starts pre-wedding — and handles such issues as premarital pregnancy, abortion, cheating, and other sex-related topics “in a light fashion.” Ahn Jae Wook explains, “If the topic of premarital pregnancy is treated overly seriously, the drama becomes less like a light show that can be watched with family and more like a documentary.” Seo Ji Hye adds: “Filming this drama has made me think lots of happy fantasies of married life, and it makes me want to get married.”


Hmm, I’m on the fence about this one. I’m all for a light-hearted series, but Seo Ji Hye and Ahn Jae Wook seem such an awkward pairing — which I know is the point — that I’m not sure how I’ll like it. And I haven’t really enjoyed anything SBS has put out recently — their series have nice acting and nice moments but the ones I’ve seen recently tend to the low-stakes, low-tension end of the spectrum.
