  1. Son Ye Jin Thanks Kim Hye Soo For Sweet Support On Set Of “Crash Landing On You”

    Son Ye Jin Thanks Kim Hye Soo For Sweet Support On Set Of “Crash Landing On You”

    Son Ye Jin was thrilled to receive a coffee truck from her senior Kim Hye Soo!

    Son Ye Jin shared a photo of herself in front of the coffee truck on her Instagram and captioned the post, “Sunbae Kim Hye Soo sent over a coffee truck. I was so, so happy!! Her existence itself is reassuring, and she’s the coolest sunbae that I always look up to!! Thank you.”

    Son Ye Jin is currently filming her upcoming tvN drama “Crash Landing on You” with Hyun Bin.

    The banner on the coffee truck reads, “I’m looking forward to Son Ye Jin’s ‘Crash Landing on You’!! To the staff and actors who are working hard in the cold, fighting!” The one next to Son Ye Jin says, “Son Ye Jin’s ‘Crash Landing on You,’ fighting!”

    Both banners say, “Featuring Kim Sun Young,” suggesting that the support is also directed to Kim Sun Young, who will be appearing in “Crash Landing on You” as well. Kim Sun Young and Kim Hye Soo are both part of the upcoming film “The Day I Died” (literal title).

  3. Watch: Son Ye Jin And Hyun Bin Grow Closer Together Facing Dangers In “Crash Landing On You”

    Watch: Son Ye Jin And Hyun Bin Grow Closer Together Facing Dangers In “Crash Landing On You”

    tvN’s upcoming weekend drama “Crash Landing on You” has released a new teaser of the romance that will bloom between Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin.

    “Crash Landing On You” tells the story of Yoon Se Ri (Son Ye Jin), a wealthy South Korean heiress who is forced to make an emergency landing in North Korea during a paragliding trip due to unexpected high winds. There, she meets North Korean officer Ri Jung Hyuk (Hyun Bin), who falls in love with her while hiding her and trying to protect her.

    The new teaser shows Yoon Se Ri in danger as she tries to navigate through North Korea while Ri Jung Hyuk stays by her side to keep her safe. She bursts into tears at the sudden changes she is facing and he comforts her as he says, “Are you hurt anywhere?” and “It’s going to get better soon.”

    His warmth seems to get her to trust him as she smiles at Ri Jung Hyuk, shares deep conversations with him, and even falls asleep leaning on his shoulder. She says, “Ri Jung Hyuk is a good person. I just want Ri Jung Hyuk to be happy.”

    “Crash Landing on You” is set to premiere on December 14 at 9 p.m. KST. Check out the teaser below!

  4. First, some screencaps of Hyun Bin in the latest teaser of Crash Landing on You. I really love Hyun Bin’s eye acting. His gaze is so irresistible, you can’t not fall in love with him :wub:

    Next, here’s a recording of VAST’s insta story of Hyun Bin at the Olive Young Mediheal fansign event today.

     

    Another clip of the event - this should be after the Fansign.  

     


    More pics and a clip of him arriving at and leaving the venue of the fansign event in spoiler.

     

    Spoiler

     

     

     

    Next, in the recent interview of Lee Jae Wook (he was Marco in Memories of the Alhambra and he also acted in the dramas www and Extraordinary You), Hyun Bin was mentioned. This is my translation of the part where he mentioned Hyun Bin.

     

    “Regarding his journey into acting, Lee Jae Wook said, “I can only say that I am lucky. It is not that I chose to go into projects, I merely chose to participate in auditions”. My first audition was "Memories of the Alhambra". After passing the auditions, the company (referring to VAST) also took me in.  Although I don’t know if Hyun Bin was involved in the auditions or had spoken about me internally, I heard that every time he is in the company, he would ask, 'is he doing well?'  He is a senior I am really thankful to have.  Whenever I see his face in the movie theaters or in advertisements, I will feel very amazed.  In person, he is even more handsome. The first time I greeted him after entering the company, I felt really overwhelmed, he speaks in a very gentle voice and looks so awesome.  “I think it's better to express that I'm in love with him," he said, expressing his infinite affection for Hyun Bin.” (Me: yes, yes, we feel you Actor Jae Wook!)

  5. Kim Jung Hyun And Seo Ji Hye Reveal Details About Their Characters In “Crash Landing On You”

    Kim Jung Hyun And Seo Ji Hye Reveal Details About Their Characters In “Crash Landing On You”

    tvN’s upcoming weekend drama “Crash Landing on You” released new stills of Kim Jung Hyun and Seo Ji Hye.

    “Crash Landing on You” tells the story of Yoon Se Ri (Son Ye Jin), a wealthy South Korean heiress who is forced to make an emergency landing in North Korea during a paragliding trip. There, she meets North Korean officer Ri Jung Hyuk (Hyun Bin), who falls in love with her while hiding her and trying to protect her.

    Kim Jung Hyun plays Ku Seung Jun, a young and rich businessman who appears like a comet in the chaebol social scene with his eloquent speaking skills. He has a complicated relationship with Yoon Se Ri due to past scandals that will take a new turn with their reunion in North Korea.

    Kim Jung Hyun shared, “Ku Seung Jun is a man who has a strong desire for what he wants. On the other hand, he is determined to not reveal his feelings. So, depending on the situation, he sometimes shows a variety of aspects, which I think is his charm.”

    Then he added, “Through the script, I am making an extra effort to express the emotions my character experiences. Also I want to show you how I play my role faithfully and meticulously.”

    On the other hand, Seo Ji Hye will portray Seo Dan, a chic and cold character with bold charisma. Her father is a high-ranking political soldier, and her mother is the president of Pyongyang’s top department store. She has strong pride, but she’s pure when it comes to her feelings for Ri Jung Hyuk.

    Seo Ji Hye commented, “Seo Dan is a character who looks perfect on the surface but has a pure and honest charm. That point was both attractive and interesting. I was curious about what North Korean women are like, so I think I can show you many charming qualities through this drama.”

    “Crash Landing on You” will premiere on December 14 at 9 p.m. KST.

  6. Aigoooo..tvN is showing so much sense in giving us teasers at unpredictable timings (as what Hyun Bin has said, the unpredictability of this drama is one of its main attractions!) “Saturday/Sunday ripped apart”!

    “토일찢어쓰“

     

    And I love that tvN is giving us so much enjoyment in its very humorous captions!

     


    Caption - 

    While Archimedes ran out of the bathroom shouting “Eureka”, 

    I ran out while screaming after watching the teaser for <Crash Landing on You>.
    :lol::lol:.
     

    Also...

     

    Seeing that there has been no English subs of Teaser 3 and with the benefit of Chinese subs, I have given my translation to hyunbinvibes to do the English subs and she has just done it! 
    Enjoy!!!

  7. There is a longer version on naver TV.

     

    tvN’s caption -
    Hyun Bin and Son Yejin’s union/combination is a wall.

    That wall is right now..complete.

     

     

     

    Okay the longer version is here.

     

    What I can figure out is this:

     

     

    YSR- Right now I am in North Korea

    RJH - Are you injured anywhere? No?

     

    Caption - Like a lie she crash landed into his world.

     

    YSR - I am crying while being in front of people I don’t know.

    RJH - It will surely be okay. Everything.

    YSR - Ri Jung Hyuk is really a good person. Suddenly a thought came to me. It is my wish that he will be happy.

     

    Okay hyunbinvibes has very kindly and very promptly done the subs. :lol:

     

    The teasers are looking so so so good!

  8. https://www.dramamilk.com/the-highest-rated-korean-dramas-of-2019/


    Dramamilk published a list of the highest rated Korean dramas of 2019 and Memories of the Alhambra came in at no.7.

     

    Memories of the Alhambra portion reproduced below.

    7. Memories of the Alhambra

    Memories of the Alhambra The Highest rated Korean Dramas of 2019Pin this image on Pinterest

    Peak ratings: 10% (cable)

    Premise: A CEO of an investment company that specializes in gaming and optical devices, purchases an Augmented Reality game the like he has never seen before. However, playing the game becomes more real than anyone could ever realize.

    Our thoughts: The augmented reality game was riveting. The opening episodes that introduced the game and the stakes were amazingly done. But then it started getting lost in this love story that didn’t need to be included at all. Whenever the game is on the screen, this show is aces. Whenever it isn’t, the show falters. The romance made me want to throw something.

    How to watch: Netflix

     

    The Korean dramas in higher positions are:

     

    6. The Last Empress

    5. Hotel Del Luna 

    4. Liver or Die

    3. Fiery Priest

    2. When Camelia Blooms

    1. Sky Castle

     

    I think Hyun Bin has gained many more new fans after Memories of the Alhambra and that’s the greatest takeaway or the most positive outcome of the drama as far as I am concerned. He also showed his existing fans like me a whole new high level of handsomeness, irresistible charm with a more mature look and great acting skills! Thanks to Memories of the Alhambra there are now a lot more fans looking forward to Crash Landing on You together :blush:

    Hyun Bin is famous for his masculine face that millions of women fall in love with. However, the actor revealed, "I look at myself in the mirror hundreds of times every day because I am an actor but I have never thought that I am handsome."

  10. This post will update on various aspects.

     

    First, re Kim Jung-hyun’s character- Goo Seung-jun 

     

    AGU3FTy.jpg

     

    https://n.news.naver.com/entertain/article/468/0000597664

     

    Kim Jung-hyun plays Goo Seung-jun, a young and rich businessman/entrepreneur who appears “like a comet” in the chaebol community. His glib-tongue and colorful rhetoric will mesmerize people. Due to a past scandal that connected them together, Goo Seung-jun will have a complicated and delicate relationship with Yoon Se-Ri. Their relationship will take a new turn as he reunites with her in North Korea.

     

    "Goo is a person who has a strong desire to pursue what he wants to gain," said Kim Jung-Hyun. “On the other hand, he is determined not to be easily caught. So, depending on the situation, he sometimes shows various aspects of his character, which I think, is his charm.”

     

    He also said, "Through the script, I will carefully express the different emotions that this character experiences. And I want to show you my portrayal of my role faithfully and meticulously until the end," he said, expressing his passion for acting. 

     

    Second, this cute promo by tvN.

     


    The BGM is Star Shower by Bye Bye Sea (별빛이 내린다, 안녕바다).

     

    The text in the IG post - Yoon SeRi and Ri Jung Hyuk’s Heart Stopping Moment

     

    The caption -

    Because of these two people, my heart has been in a mess.

     

    I love tvN’s drama promo haha..aigooo...tvN is messing with our hearts.

    Looks like the idle military land in Mukgye-ri, Hoengseong, Gangwon-do has been booked for filming of Crash Landing on You till January next year. 

     

    This place has been in the spotlight since October 2017 as the filming set for a number of movies and dramas (2 movies and 4 dramas including OCN’s Strangers from Hell and The Running Mates: Human Rights so far for this year), according to the Gangwon Film Council.

     

    It is reported that the production team of Crash Landing on You will have 150 to 200 staff and cast everyday until January next year. The relevant production committee estimates that the drama's 200 staff spends between 8 to 10 million won daily  in the region, including lodging, meal and entertainment expenses. The site comes with ready facilities to create the set for footages of military scenes as well as ready facilities for accommodation or residence during the filming period.

    Known as Pyongyang’s “맵짠 girl” (맵짠 literally means spicy sauce but in North Korea this refers to an exceptionally outstanding girl - the South Korean equivalent is 퀸카 ), Seo Dan is a girl with a beautiful appearance and perfect credentials. Her father is a high ranking political soldier and her mother is the President of Pyongyang’s Top-Class Departmental Store. She is a “model daughter” who has a strong ego but when it comes to love, she is pure and innocent. Seo Ji Hye said, “Though Seo Dan looks perfect on the outside, what’s most attractive about her is her inner charms of innocence and humanity. This part makes her warm, approachable and fun at the same time.” Seo Ji Hye also said, “I have always been curious about how North Korean women are like. I think through this drama, I can show various charms.”

    Five Korean Male Actors Who Successfully Played Iconic North Korean Roles

    large_5ebdc15ce9501bae7b023ffd2dabe21b3897e676.jpeg

    What's your favorite movie genre?

     

    One of the popular Korean movie genres is probably those that include North Korean issues. Little known to the South Korean public, North Korea is a popular yet interesting topic many movie producers use to make their movies mysterious and interesting. North Korea and South Korea share similar yet different languages, cultures, and other features. Such differences make it very challenging for actors to perfectly fit themselves into characters from North Korea. However, we all know those who have done it successfully. 

     

    Here are five top Korean actors who played North Korean roles and perfectly nailed it.

  14. 2 hours ago, cybertron said:
    is the caption on the last sentence mention “hot scene”?

     

    I have posted my translation in the drama thread. It’s funny that the caption describes the filming set as 뜨거운 which  means “passionate” when describing a “relationship”. But it means “hot” when describing “coffee” for example. Since it was used as an adjective next to #filmingset I have translated it as “passionate”. Go read my post in the drama thread where I have replicated the caption in English. :)
