Han Hyo Joo’s Childhood Friends Share What She Was Like When She Was Younger
By S.Cho | Soompi
Han Hyo Joo’s hometown friends have shared what the actress was like as a student!
On the August 16 episode of tvN’s “Hometown Flex,” hosts Lee Seung Gi and Cha Tae Hyuntravelled around the city of Chungju with Han Hyo Joo and Lee Beom Soo.During the episode, Han Hyo Joo’s childhood friends made a surprise appearance and shared stories from her younger days. They commented, “Rather than being pretty, she was more good-looking. She was really good at physical education. She always placed first in races.”
They added, “Although she was in middle school, she would receive attention from college students.” Shocked, Han Hyo Joo asked, “I did?” Her friends continued, “When we went to look at cherry blossoms, people would think you were a college student,” adding that she looks the same now as she did when she was younger.
Han Hyo Joo’s close friend Lee Seung Gi jokingly commented, “I guess you looked a little old?” The actress made everyone laugh by agreeing, “I did look a bit old.”
tvN’s “Hometown Flex” airs every Sunday at 10:50 p.m. KST.

SG was saying that he couldn’t remember HyoJoo as a good singer.. maybe his memories remained at the 2009 sbs awards ceremony
love the part where both SG and Hyojoo were reminiscing their childhood while walking around in Yullyang neighbourhood cuz they really looked like they’re on a date

Thank you @eLizza for the information!
So nice to hear that Japanese fans have never forgotten about her and Dong Yi. I heard Dong Yi still get broadcasted occasionally throughout these years.Just hope that the Covid situation can be under control soon so at least her Jap movie premiere will be confirmed to be next year and we will get to watch it sooner or later afterwards..
I wonder if she has already started to shoot for Hometown Flex?

Han Ji Min, Han Hyo Joo, Park Bo Young together join "Healing Sound" campaign
By Jo Yeon Kyung | Vlive
Actors under BH Entertainment have together partaken in a meaningful campaign.
On June 8, ten "Healing Sound" recordings featuring the voices of BH Entertainment actors including Park Bo Young, Park Sung Hoon, Jin Goo, Han Ji Min, and Han Hyo Joo were published on the homepages of Kakao Together, Kakao Mini and Hey Kakao app.
During this difficult period, the campaign "Healing Sound" becomes even more meaningful when it is planned based on the volunteer of the actors under BH Entertainment. The campaign is widely supported when publishing the audio of famous actors reading beautiful quotes and poetry verses from books.
Right from the beginning of the campaign, the related boxes of donations have been opened. At the same time, the organizers also apply the form that every time listeners enjoy an audio recording, 1,000 won will be donated to the campaign. The amount of donation during the campaign is planned to use for a psychology aid project related to the Covid-19 pandemic. Just after one day, not only did the campaign surpass its initial goal for the donation money, but it also gained 200,000 "plays" and it is still intriguing many and receiving praise from the listeners.
The actors affiliated with BH Entertainment carried out this campaign with the hopeful heart to become small comfort for everyone in their difficult life. The public can listen to the "Healing Sound" audio on the homepage of Kakao Together.

Han Hyo Joo 한효주 - [FIN: Happiness (2021) || NEXT: ThePirates: Goblin Flag (Jan 2022)]
in actors & actresses
Posted · Edited by gm4queen
Please use spoiler tags when you upload more than 3 images in one post! Thanks!
Hi hi guys~~ I think Soompi was having some bugs so I couldn’t login and stuff but it’s good to be back!
I’m actually quite surprised to see positive reviews from knetz either in DC or twitter with most saying Hyo’s acting as Saebom is refreshing to see.. love it that Hyo doesn’t need to act much in this because she is indeed Saebom. Have to admit, Saebom is by far one of the best character (at least to me) Hyo has in recent years.
Soompi is still having bugs cuz I’m kinda banned(?) from anything..
K-drama Happiness: Han Hyo-joo makes formidable return to TV in focused zombie series
By Peirce Conran | SCMP
High concepts come with high expectations and as each drama series strives to be the next big thing, storytellers in South Korea try to give us something we’ve never seen before. Occasionally this results in something truly fresh and exciting, but more often than not it leads to something big and brash that tries too hard to please.
Happiness, a new 12-part horror-thriller series marking the return of actress Han Hyo-joo, is neither of these things.
Instead, this zombie show set in an apartment block judiciously picks the right elements from recent shows and films and crafts them into an easy-to-digest and fun-to-watch series that seems more concerned with doing the simple things right than wowing us with big and aggressive swings.
Ever since Train to Busan five years ago, zombies, or creatures closely modelled after them, have run rampant across Korean media. They run, twitch and squirm in unusual ways, but they’ve seldom been particularly frightening.
Instead, the stories – many of them social parables – they find themselves in, and the characters within them they try to attack, are the things that have drawn our interest.
The biggest issue facing Koreans today is skyrocketing apartment prices, which are widening an already major chasm between social classes in the country. Recent Korean zombie or monster titles have notably featured apartment block backdrops, such as #Alive or Sweet Home, both on Netflix.
But whereas those stories were more concerned with genre thrills, Happinessplaces a stronger emphasis on Korea’s complex high-rise ecosystem and the things that people will do to get into it, or keep others out.
Han, in her first drama since W five years ago – though she recently appeared in the US series Treadstone – plays Yoon Sae-beom, a fearless member of a special anti-terror police squad. Also in the police force is Sae-beom’s high school friend Jung Yi-hyun (ZE:A’s Park Hyung-sik).
The show begins with the pair back in high school, with Yi-hyun contemplating suicide when an injury torpedoes his promising baseball career.
Han (left) and Park Hyung-sik in a still from Happiness.
The police arrive and try to talk him down. Sae-beom dashes up to the roof, breezes past the police, jumps onto the ledge and trots up to Yi-hyun. After successfully talking him down, she pushes him off the roof anyway, into the police’s giant inflatable cushion down below.
After this faintly ludicrous opening, featuring the 34-year-old Han as a spunky teenager, the show gets down to business. Both Sae-beom and Yi-hyun come into contact with individuals who display extremely aggressive behaviour, albeit temporarily, after ingesting special drugs.
Enter Han Tae-seok (Jo Woo-jin), the leader of a hush-hush government task force trying to control the situation.
Jo Woo-jin is the leader of a hush-hush government task force in Happiness.
Sae-beom is brought in for testing after begin scratched by her attacker and, after helping Tae-seok, she gets her ultimate reward – extra points on a performance evaluation to qualify her for special government housing. She still needs a couple more points, and she scores them when she convinces Yi-hyun to get married for show.
The story then moves to Le Ciel, a fancy new apartment complex, but Sae-beom discovers that all its sparkling facilities aren’t available to her and other public housing beneficiaries living below the sixth floor of their building.
Unlike most shows on TV, Happiness takes place in a world that has experienced Covid-19. Lunch cafeterias feature plastic dividers on tables and people still wear masks, but far less strictly than is actually the case in South Korea.
Park in a still from Happiness.
As more outbreaks of the drug-induced zombie disease pop up over the city, citizens begin to experience pandemic déjà vu when these cases need to be contained.
When a case appears on the sixth floor of Sae-beom’s building, Le Ciel also goes into lockdown, with Tae-seok’s armed forces erecting a barricade around the complex and mandating a seven-day quarantine.
Factions begin to form among the frustrated residents as tensions rise during the dull quarantine, largely along social class lines, but before long a ferocious zombie outbreak sweeps through the complex.
Zombies go on the rampage in K-drama Happiness.
Over its first four episodes Happinessconcentrates a lot more on establishing social dynamics and presenting a relatively easy-going story with doses of drama and comedy, so gore hounds chasing their next zombie fix would do well to adjust their expectations.
New apartments in Korea are allocated through a complicated points system in a vastly oversubscribed apartment lottery, giving local viewers plenty of relatable material to fume over, not unlike the real estate-themed Sell Your Haunted House earlier this year.
Owners of the higher units are largely preoccupied with maintaining high apartment prices, but once the zombies come hurtling through their halls, their baser instincts are likely to prevail.
Han in a still from Happiness.
Memories of Alhambra director Ahn Gil-ho brings an unhurried pace to the show, while Han Sang-woon, who wrote the hugely underrated horror romcom My Ordinary Love Story, has penned a story with clear and easy-to-root-for characters.
Leading the protagonists is the strong and relatable Sae-beom, played with grace and grit by a formidable Han in what proves to a very welcome return to small screens.
