willenette Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 seo ye ji + joo ji hoon lend their voices to naver webtoon series DaYUmmm. This pairing should totally be a real-life drama OTP. Joo Ji Hoon and Seo Ye Ji are the leads for the audio version of a Naver webtoon series, Men of the Harem. It is about a female emperor choosing her male empress among her harem… which sounds all kinds of awesome. I can absolutely imagine Seo Ye Ji kicking RickRoll'D in the role and having intensely sexy chemistry with Jo Ji Hoon. https://www.instagram.com/p/CFi2lJLH1YF/?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet https://www.instagram.com/p/CFi3LjNHfcO/?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet source : https://breathlesssurvival.wordpress.com/2020/09/25/seo-ye-ji-joo-ji-hoon-lend-their-voices-to-naver-webtoon-series/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willenette Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 These Gorgeous And Hot Korean Actors In Their Late 30s Are Still Single And Available As everyone is getting hooked to Korean dramas, especially during community quarantine, we know that it's hard to keep track of all the good looking actors from all the series, especially now that Korean entertainment companies are always launching fresh new faces with every project release. However, there are those heartthrobs who stand the test of time! As some would say, Korean men age like fine wine, and yes, they got even hotter as they age. Let's look at those fine handsome Korean actors that are still single and maybe ready to mingle. It seems a lot of them choose to remain single. This could be because of a personal choice or maybe because they still don't have time to be in a relationship, or maybe they still haven't found "the one." Check out the list below! See if your favorite hot actor is on the list. Ju Ji Hoon, 38 (Photo : Ju Ji Hoon fan page Pinterest) Ju Ji Hoon is probably the first-ever Oppa or the first-ever prince we have laid our eyes on. He portrayed the character of Crown Prince Lee Shin in 'Princess Hours' which is one of the most classic dramas we have ever watched. Though he may be entangled with some controversies throughout his career, Ju Ji Hoom still proved that he is one talented actor as he continues to rise to fame with Netflix hit series, 'The Kingdom.'

willenette Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 The 5 Most *Expensive* K-Dramas Produced So Far Can you guess how much the most expensive K-drama costs? If it wasn't already obvious, there's a hefty price to pay for producing the high-quality K-dramas that we love. That said, a few shows cost a lot more than most based on their setting and storylines, especially when it comes to costume-heavy period pieces, and CGI-laden fantasy dramas. Not to mention each show's top stars are also compensated handsomely per episode. Curious as to how it all works? Below we rounded up five of the most expensive K-dramas produced thus far. 3. Kingdom Seasons 1 and 2 (2019 and 2020) Estimated Cost: 35 billion won (P1.5 billion) According to series director Kim Seong Hun, Netflix's breakout zombie drama Kingdom went over its assigned budget, which resulted in the production team having to pay for the additional penalty fees. He revealed in an interview with Variety that each episode required more than $1.78 million (approximately 2 billion won or P85 million). "Initially, Kingdom was intended as an eight-episode series and production was supposed to be completed in four months. In the end, however, we took about six months on production and overspent the budget," he told Variety. The series stars top Hallyu actors Ju Ji Hoon and Bae Doona.

willenette Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 *** I heard that JJH planned on leaving his current label KeyEast, starting anew with a new agency. If so, I'm curious what Label he's heading to. According to earlier media reports, he was contacted by a startup agency, H& Entertainment - established by a former vice president of KeyEast.

willenette Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 Ju Ji Hoon’s Contract With KeyEast is Up for Renewal On October 20, it was reported that actor Ju Ji Hoon would be leaving his current company KeyEast Entertainment and joining a new agency with a new contract. However, such rumors were quashed by his agency who responded by saying that Ju Ji Hoon's contract was up for renewal. KeyEast relayed, "We are currently discussing Ju Ji Hoon's contract renewal." Previous reports alleged that Ju Ji Hoon was reached out to by a relatively new and up and coming agency H& Entertainment - established by a former vice president of KeyEast Entertainment. H& Entertainment is home to artists like In Kyo Jin, Jung Ryeo Won, Son Dam Bi, and now Krystal Jung, and more. However, no confirmed reports have been received so far. (Photo : KeyEast) Ju Ji Hoon's first leading role was in the 2006 hit drama Princess Hours. His other notable works include The Devil, Antique, Mask, Along With The Gods: The Two Worlds and its sequel, The Spy Gone North, Dark Figure of Crime and Kingdom. He also played the leading role in the record-breaking law and order K-Drama, Hyena alongside Kim Hye Soo. Ju Ji Hoon shot to worldwide popularity with his role as the titular King in the Netflix series Kingdom season 1 and 2. Kingdom was met with immense popularity both in Korea and overseas and has effectively changed the appeal of K-dramas overseas. (Photo : Netflix) He is all set to return to the small screen with the multi-million project Jirisan, alongside top actress Jun Ji Hyun. Jirisan is the story of rangers who work to rescue people at Jiri Mountain National Park. Seo Yi Gang (Jun Ji Hyun) is the best ranger at Jiri Mountain National Park. She knows virtually everything about the area, including where to climb the mountain. Kang Hyun Jo (Ju Ji Hoon) is a rookie ranger at Jiri Mountain National Park. He graduated from the military academy and was once an army captain. However, he's hiding a terrible secret. These two people become partners and they work to save people around Jiri Mountain National Park. source : Kdramastars https://www.kdramastars.com/articles/119135/20201020/ju-ji-hoon-contract-keyeast-up-renewal.htm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTBC will continue to approach you with exciting dramas.” Screenwriter Kim Eun Hee of “Kingdom S2” took home the Best Writer award, and she expressed, “Thank you for giving me such a great award.

I’ve been creating ‘Kingdom’ for over three years. I thank the directors, and I hope that our precious actors, who are like a family now, will reach the finish line we’ve promised to reach. The most important zombie actors, thank you so much. I also thank the staff who work hard under difficult conditions on set, and I will work harder to write a script that is worthy of them.” “When the Camellia Blooms” received Best Asian Drama, and the drama’s director Cha Young Hoon shared, “Thank you for giving us a big award. It’s been about a year since the drama finished airing, and receiving this great award is moving.

willenette Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Here’s What The Cast Of The 2006 Koreanovela ‘Princess Hours’ Is Up To Now The early 2000s gave us some of the best koreanovelas we've ever seen. Long before streaming platforms like Netflix, Viu, and iQIYI were a thing, OG fans know the thrill of patiently watching dramas on CDs and local networks. One of these dramas is Princess Hours, also known as Goong. The drama’s popularity soared high and was broadcasted in different countries including Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, Japan, and of course, the Philippines. It was so well-received by audiences that it even had a musical adaptation and a spinoff entitled Prince Hours! Princess Hours aired in the Philippines in 2006, the same year it was released in South Korea. The drama introduced us to the fixed marriage of Janelle and Prince Gian, who eventually grew feelings for each other. Look at comments on the internet, and you will see that almost everyone fell in love with the drama that was actually based on a webtoon or manhwa. Wonder what the cast of Princess Hours is up to now? 2. Ju Ji Hoon Ju Ji Hoon made it big not only in K-dramas but also in Korean movies. Some of his works include the Netflix series Kingdom and the high-grossing film Along With The Gods: The Two Worlds (which was followed by a sequel that he was also a part of). Ji Hoon can’t help but reflect on the changes that have happened after his first project, Princess Hours. During a show appearance, he revealed that he actually gets quite embarrassed when the drama’s reruns are played. “I couldn’t watch it for a long time, but one day I happened to come across a .gif on Instagram. I really felt my age. I looked so much younger then.” LOL! https://www.instagram.com/p/CGzShZTH8DZ/?utm_source=ig_embed Ju Ji Hoon is going to be *super* busy in the following months. First, there’s a *possible* Kingdom prequel (he confirmed this during his speech in the 2020 Asia Contents Awards where he took home the Best Actor award). Second, he will be playing the lead in the drama Mount Jiri alongside Jun Ji Hyun. And third, he will join the star-studded line-up of the movie Silence with Lee Sun Gyun and Park Ju Hyun. Phew! https://www.instagram.com/p/CG3921pBIb_/?utm_source=ig_embed (skipped unrelated.....) credit : https://www.cosmo.ph/entertainment/princess-hours-cast-updates-2020-a4575-20201102?ref=home_feed_1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
