The Magic of Choi Woo-shik, the Youth Who Makes Fantasy Realistic, 'Number One' Choi Woo-shik① “I Have Great Luck with People, This Set Had Everything in Harmony”

The Magic of Choi Woo-shik, the Youth Who Makes Fantasy Realistic, 'Number One' Choi Woo-shik① “I Have Great Luck with People, This Set Had Everything in Harmony”

When Choi Woo-shik does it, it seems plausible. The setting where numbers appear before his eyes, the setting where a number decreases every time he eats his mom's food, and the somewhat absurd setting of leaving his hometown to avoid his mom's home-cooked meals, all transform from fantasy to a...

[Joo Seong-cheol's Locker] Tony Leung Sometimes Wants to Hold an Ashtray.

[Joo Seong-cheol's Locker] Tony Leung Sometimes Wants to Hold an Ashtray.

I get fascinated by objects in movies. I ponder deeply about why the director, cinematographer, art director, or even the actors placed that object in front of the camera. 'Joo Seong-cheol's Locker' is a record of the objects in movies that have lightly stepped on my eyes.
I sometimes hold an ashtray too. In the second meeting after director Hou Hsiao-hsien and actor Tony Leung's 〈Days of Being Wild〉 (1989), there is a scene in 〈In the Mood for Love〉 (1998) where Tony Leung suddenly acts out in a fit of rage.

‘The King's Warden’ Park Ji-hoon ② “I was amazed every time by the energy in every scene with senior Yoo Hae-jin”

▶ 〈The King's Warden〉 Park Ji-hoon actor interview continues in Part 1. Actor Yoo Hae-jin said he was really surprised by the energy while acting with Park Ji-hoon. How was the chemistry with senior Yoo Hae-jin. I don't think I'm in a position to evaluate senior's acting like that.

‘The King's Warden’ Park Ji-hoon ① “You must be Danjong, I decided to participate after Director Jang Hang-jun's words”

Although it is a phrase derived from the West, a king is sometimes like the sun. It signifies both the nobility of the 'bloodline' that a king receives from the heavens and the duty to spread light across the world.

The King's Warden

The King's Warden

Fortunately, he was cheerful even at the interview site. He is known to be a cheerful person, but he was probably in a good mood here because his new work 〈The King's Warden〉 received good reviews right after the premiere.

[Seongchan Eol's Comic Book] A Title That Seems Like It Shouldn't Be Said Casually, Except It's Perfect 「Teenage Dragon」

I am crazy about subculture. I check out not only movies but also webtoons, games, comics, and animations that deal with fresh stories, themes, and characters. I opened the world of 'geek' through comic books and became an 'adult child' who reads comics on e-books and webtoons on my smartphone.

[Chua-young's Music Box] Why Did 'What If We' Resonate with Today's Youth? The Romance Fantasy of the Non-Dating Generation

[Chua-young's Music Box] Why Did 'What If We' Resonate with Today's Youth? The Romance Fantasy of the Non-Dating Generation

I am captivated by the music in movies. Music sometimes conveys the intimate emotions of characters that cannot be expressed through visible images and audible dialogues alone. It can also serve as a window into the hidden intentions of the creator. For me, understanding movie music was one way to connect with the film. 'Chua-young's Music Box' listens to the voice of the movie more closely through music. (P.S. I hope you read this while listening to the music.)
The movie 〈What If We〉 is rewriting the record of Korean melodramas. Starting at number 2 in the box office, the film climbed to number 1 in its second week of release, beginning its resurgence. On social media, the 'Crying Challenge' trend emerged, drawing responses from the youth.

The Man Loved by Jang Hang-jun, 'The Man Living with the King' Kim Min

The Man Loved by Jang Hang-jun, 'The Man Living with the King' Kim Min

I am curious about people. Even if they are already recognized actors, today might be the least famous day of their lives. 'Kim Ji-yeon's Jewelry Box' introduces actors who are continuously breaking their own records. Invest in 'low point stocks'.
An actor with a pleasantly surprising quality. Undoubtedly Jang Hang-jun's man. From the movie 〈Rebound〉 to 〈The Killers〉, and 〈The Man Living with the King〉. Kim Min has been cast in three consecutive works by director Jang Hang-jun, becoming his new persona.
