Who’s Your 'Triangle'? Mixed-Gender Groups That Come to Mind After Watching 〈Wild Sing〉

It’s one of those songs you’ve never heard before, but it sounds familiar. The stage looks new, yet you get a strong sense of déjà vu. If you saw the film that opened on June 3, 〈Wild Sing〉, you probably felt that.

[Kim Ji-yeon’s Jewel Box] Right Now Is Yoon Byung-hee’s Prime

I’m interested in people. Even actors already drawing attention may be less famous today than they will be tomorrow. 'Kim Ji-yeon’s Jewel Box' introduces performers reaching new highs by the day. Think of it as spotting a breakout before everyone else does.

I find myself getting deeply lost in thought about why—of all things—this director, cinematographer, art director, or even the actor, placed that item in front of the camera. “Joo Seong-cheol’s Locker” is a record of the objects in films that landed on my eyes with a light, delicate stomp.

Gu Gyo-hwan: 'If I were wearing the emotion watch from 〈Everyone Is Fighting Their Own Worthlessness〉 now, I'd be green all over — down to my veins'

※This interview with Gu Gyo-hwan continues from Part 1. From films to TV dramas, every project Gu Gyo-hwan has appeared in is doing well. Can we call this the 'Gu Gyo-hwan era'. Calling it the 'Gu Gyo-hwan era' is a bit much. When I walk down the street, people sometimes call out, "Dong-man.
