I'm new in this thread. I am currently watching Story of Man and man oh man am I so in love with this actor. He is so intense and so gorgeously bad that if his character wanted to destroy me I would just probably sit in front of him drooling and saying yes you can destroy be because is this guy one amazing actor. He is so wonderful and so masterful in his craft that I have actually watched Le Grand Chef, Rainbow Eyes and Beauty and Beast and I feel that with all of his works he really brings out something so different and so potent that I actually had to do a double take and realize that he was all in that works because he is like a chameleon and he really embodies all the characters that he plays and the real Kim Kang Woo blends himself on all the character he plays. I love this actor not just because he is so yummy looking but because I think he is the best and most talented actor out there right now and still he is so under-rated. I hope to see him in a new project soon and I would love to see him in another series as intense and gripping as STORY OF A MAN. LOVE HIM SO MUCH. CHAE DO WOO is now my favorite villain.

This thread needs more love! Just finished watching Story of A Man today - Kim Kang Woo was AMAZING. Handsome and a great actor. I hope he wins some awards for his role as Chae Do Woo.

More Cast Details on Korean Better Tomorrow Remake

Last word on 무적자 (Invincible), the Korean remake of John Woo's 英雄本色 (A Better Tomorrow), was that Song Hae-Sung of 파이란 (Failan) would direct, and that Korean Wave star Song Seung-Heon and possibly Lee Min-Gi would be cast as the leads. But now producers Fingerprint have finalized the cast, and I suppose the ladies will be pleased.

Lee Min-Gi seems out, unless they cast him in a lesser role (wouldn't be out of the question, considering in how many films he starred this year, regardless of screen time), but Song Seung-Heon is confirmed for Chow Yun-Fat's role, and the other three main characters will be played by interesting choices: Joo Jin-Mo, last seen on the big screen playing Goryeo's King Gongmin in 쌍화점 (Frozen Flower), will play Ti Lung's role, while Kim Gang-Woo of 태풍태양 (The Aggressives) and 마린보이 (Marine Boy) will essay Leslie Cheung's role. Waise Lee's role will go to Jo Han-Seon.

Again, interesting choices, at least on a pure acting standpoint (as far as marketing potential goes, they did a pretty formidable job, all things considered). Kim proved this year with the terribly misguided 남자 이야기 (The Slingshot) that he's a sort of male version of Lee Na-Young, someone who works within limited boundaries, but whenever those limits are overstepped the flaws become impossible not to notice. And considering how little Jo and Song have to offer beyond machismo and mugging for the camera, you find yourself in a situation where Joo Jin-Mo (again, not exactly a master thespian) has to carry the ball for all four. The result could very likely be another 숙명 (Fate), filled to the brim with macho posturing, some kinetic bullet shenanigans, and that's about it. But maybe that's the point... machismo and guns.

With a budget of 10 billion won, Invincible will start shooting in January for what looks like a pre-World Cup release. The film takes the blueprint of the 1986 original, and adapts it to a Korean setting by featuring North Korean defectors who infiltrate into the underworld.

Waise Lee's role will go to Jo Han-Seon.

This is awful. Classics like A Better Tomorrow should be left alone! I wish Kim Kang-woo hadn't taken on this role, even though he's a fine actor. And Song Seung-heon can't act! How ridiculous is it that he's taking on a character popularised by Chow Yun-Fat?

Going by "Anti-xxx Law":

Yes, the Korea and Japan investors are silly to throw away billions of dollars. The Korea film makers are crazy to do this remake and even thinking of releasing in other parts of Asia. Finally, the director, staff and actors who are casted in this remake all made a ridiculous choice to start this whole project. In addition, so-and-so should go back to acting classes as they can't act.

Dear 2uss... you can consider deleting your posts because they really looked silly here.
