  1. John Woo’s The Crossing to open Dec 2


    Beijing Galloping Horse has set the China release date for the first part of John Woo’s upcoming epic drama The Crossing for December 2.

    Starring Zhang Ziyi, Takeshi Kaneshiro and Korean actress Song Hye-kyo, the film revolves around three couples on a liner that sinks during its crossing between mainland China and Taiwan.

    Woo also confirmed that the movie was delayed in 2012 by his diagnosis of cancer. He first heard the story of the ill-fated Taiping liner from scriptwriter Wang Huiling in 2008 and was moved to make an historical romantic drama that would portray events during a tumultuous time in China’s history.

    “While I was receiving treatment in the States, I saw a bad film and I thought to myself, I could not just die like that. I can’t just go away without making a film which I think is perfect,” said Woo.

    The Crossing is produced by Beijing Galloping Horse, Le Vision Pictures, China Film and Huayi Brothers. The second part of the two-part movie will be released in 2015.

    The early December release date for the first part comes a few weeks before the release of another highly-anticipated Chinese production, Jiang Wen’s Gone With The Bullets, on December 18.

  5. Kang Dong Won talks about what it was like to work with TaeTiSeo on 'My Brilliant Life'


    Actor Kang Dong Won talked about what it felt like to work with TaeTiSeo.


    In the movie 'My Brilliant Life', Kang Dong Won plays a young father who is obsessed with girl groups. In the beginning of the movie, when TaeTiSeo comes on TV, he can't take his eyes off the screen. Taeyeon, Tiffany, and Seohyun came out as cameos in his movie to add to his character line. 


    He was asked about working with the girls by Sports Hankook, and he said, "I've almost never seen idols after I debuted, so it was kind of amazing. Girls' Generation being on set was weird. We took a commemorative photo afterwards, but we didn't really talk to each other. It was unfamiliar to have idols on set. I didn't even know where to sit. It was an amazing experience."

    When asked if he liked any idols, he confessed, "I don't really listen to dance songs. I've been a rock music mania since I was young. I like Coldplay and Radiohead."
