Thank you @Calphurnia2007What about the joking in the beginning of their talk?

[lucy13880]

WOW Thank you @meelis for the wedding video! Never seen that before. Young JJM! His face expression is just the same as now.
One more thing, MLE has finished final poster concept today.

[Guest meelis]

LOL, indeed, @lucy13880, same expression, same smile. But is it only me or he looks now better than before. Or maybe for being his fan for almost 10 years already, we've "grown up" together and my taste in men has evolved accordingly, so that I naturally came to appreciate his mature look more? 

[lucy13880]

LOL @meelis for me his look today is totally different from his young days, even like two persons. HAHA

[Guest meelis]

Haha, @lucy13880, I think that your impression comes from his style that has changed, not his features. I don't mind, as long as the squirrel smile is still there, I'm OK with his process of ageing. )

[lucy13880]

Also add this one JDG's wife talked about JDG's buddies, especially JJM and Hyun Bin.

@lucy13880, thanks for the videos. About Go So Young's interview, @salijoo had translated some time ago the part about JDG and his buddies, but I don't remember whether she posted it here or in the WangNyang thread. As far as I remember, GSO said that JDG and his buddies are macho men who don't know much about women. She also described the way they eat meat like savage people or something like that (special mention here of the way JJM ate his steak when they went together to a restaurant) etc.  I remember how we commented that they obviously wanted to impress the "noona". =))

Wang Yoo does high tech!

[Calphurnia2007]

This is the most complementary comment I have read about JJM's acting, I found it on http://star.koreandrama.org/joo-jin-mo/
His undeniable handsomeness aside, I think his most captivating characteristic is his wonderful voice, deep, stentorian, full and sonorous, a voice that has more carry to it than many a seasoned theatre actor (in my books the best compliment that can be paid to a thespian). I have seen him in two films Happy Ending and A Frozen Flower, and he’s magnificent in both. Very different films, very different performances, yet he was equally captivating, convincing, and accurate in portraying the characters he was given, in both; that is the mark of a great and protean actor. Can’t wait for his next film (since I haven’t the slightest bit of interest in sports dramas Dream does not appeal to me, although I may have a look just for JJM). On another note, I wish people would stop advising, or dictating to, screen actors how to live their lives and what to do, not everybody’s idea of happiness involves coupledom, family,and the like (and for some of us such constitute the idea of hell). The man behind the mask is none of our business. Moreover, the mask is profound and brilliant enough to keep us amazed and engage our thought and imagination for years to come.

[Guest meelis]

WOW, thank you for sharing this comment, @Calphurnia2007, what an elevated style of language! =D>  Great compliments! Oh, I agree with the last sentences, I feel that sometimes we comment too much about his private matters which are none of our concern, after all we are here for the actor. But I can't help, I'm also curious about the man behind the mask, should I say, knowing what is hidden under the mask, I appreciate the mask itself even more.

class="at_ttl"Five Things That Always Happen In K-dramas—Except When They Don't

BY Julie Jones | Apr 16, 2015 07:41 AM EDT

Here are five k-drama rules that never get broken-except when they do.

Plenty of spoilers ahead, so consider yourself warned.

1.     The hero or main character never dies. This is usually true, unless the drama starts with the premise that the character only has a short time to live. No matter how many times Joo Jin Mo was run through with a sword in "Empress Ki," he bounced back to life. Bullet wounds are nothing and characters wake up from decades-long comas with their make-up intact. Except that there are a few exceptions. At the end of "Padam, Padam," Jung Woo Sung does not make it. At the end of "Shark," Kim Nam Gil pays for his stubborn desire for revenge. And what about that vague ending for "City Hunter?"

2.     The second lead never gets the girl. Mostly that's true but sometimes it's hard to tell just who the second lead is. For example, in "Discovery of Love," was Sung Joon the current boyfriend the second lead or was it Eric Moon, the former boyfriend. And the obvious second lead gets the girl in "Dream High," "Prosecutor Princess" and "Baker King Kim Tak Goo."

3.     The people in love suspect they might be brother and sister but turn out not to be related. This is a common way to make two people worry about their relationship. But in a few cases, they do turn out to be related. Jang Geun Suk and Yoona want to date but find out their parents want to marry. That would make them stepsiblings, still a taboo. And in "Kill Me, Heal Me," it seems like Ji Sung and Hwang Jung Eum might have the same mom for a while. But when it turns out that her mom and his dad had kids with other people, the relationship gets murky. Her mom was technically married to his dad when she was born. So, that does kind of make them stepsiblings.

4.     The poor girl is suspected of being after a man for his money but it turns out money doesn't matter to her. That's usually the case. For example, in 'Heard It Through The Grapevine," Lee Joon's parents think Go Ah Seung was having his child because she wanted to marry up, but they realize she is not like that. However, in "Cheomdamdong Alice," Moon Geun Young does decide to marry for money. It's just lucky that the man she wants to marry for money is also the man she liked when she thought he was poor. Still.

5.      If a man feels something for a girl he will give her a piggyback ride if she's drunk, sick or has lost the heel on her shoe. While this still happens in dramas, it seems to be happening less. But the piggyback ride is not always reserved for macho men hoisting up slender girls. In "Coffee Prince" Yoon Eun Hye disguised as a boy gives Gong Yoo a piggyback ride. But to be fair, once he discovers she is a girl, he gives her one.

@Calphurnia2007, Sorry about this. There is a warning at the beginning of the article.

However, the statement about Joo Jin Mo is not completely true. His character in Empress Ki died at the end of the story.  :-S
