[peanuts281]

@asdfghello ah yes thank you for your understanding. Good point about the student thing having passed, but maybe would have done better if having more time to study. We know he's a perfectionist, right? Wanting only the best 

and yes, I like the dancing in the rain. I like dancing, and if it's our Prince dancing, I will like it always, whatever kind of dance, wherever, whenever, haha. I thought it was so sweet with our beautiful doctor HJ.

hello @ella777 welcome here! I hope you'll get to know him better through this site. There's a lot to discover about our Prince 

oh he's in LA for a photoshoot? interesting! I'm curious what the setting will be. I hope he's enjoying his stay in the USA. He can practice his English  (I can totally here him saying that HJH's "Morning'" in the hotel or wherever he's staying haha)

He killed them with just that plain kind of style. He stands out without having the need to wear fancy clothes or anything. 

 

He is a MAN 

Hi everyone ! Im a new fan from Doctors ! Usually I just spazz there or in the RaeShin thread and read silently here but decided to come out and say hello ! 

I just hope this new photoshoot in LA will do justice to his manliness ! I hated the High Cut photoshoot, they made him up like a flower boy but we all know he is NOT ! They need to celebrate his masculinity and that raw sexy manly appeal that he has  

I want him in a gray suit and white shirt like the helicopter scene in Doctors if i cannot have him showing just his abs in the photoshoot  Excuse my pervy mode !!

[tatidu]

cant wait for his upcoming movie.. "The Prison" as Detective Song Yoo Gun

Hello again everyone~ I translated another part of his interview, at least, the part that I think hasn't really been translated in English yet. I translated from a Japanese article, so I'm hoping the translation is not that off. Enjoy anyhow~

Thank you so much for the translation, @Ayame

Acting is becoming more interesting for me. I think there are a lot of things I want to do and become better at.

I am so happy to read this...  I remember a long time ago interview in which he said he did not know if he wanted to act all of his life... I am so glad he is back and found his path.

(Re-posting my translation of this here.) Oh my god. I can't believe I just spent 2 hours translating this, but I just did lol. I just translated Part 1 of KRW's SBS interview. There are 2 articles of the interview, Part 1 and Part 2 since the interview was really long. I'll try to get up Part 2 by tomorrow or something. Also, this is translated from the Japanese translation, so I'm hoping it's okay... because the grammar was really hard to translate at some points lol. Well enjoy.

Thank you again, @Ayame

Secondly, I had to be worried about whether I understood the intention, or what was it that we were conveying to the viewers, but there wasn’t enough time to do that efficiently. Therefore, in the later half, there were parts where my acting wasn’t as much as I wanted. I’m disappointed that (the viewers) can’t see the real story.

He is truly a perfectionist...!    But he does also touch on important element, of the insane crazy schedule of live shooting drama. I hope he gets an opportunity to do a pre-produced drama.

Actually, in the script, Ji Hong was supposed to say his lines in a very nervous and anxious way, but I wanted to do those lines in a manly type of way. I think I successfully changed it

I think so too.... I agree with him. It was pretty much perfect the way he delivered those lines.

Thank you @maria1983 for all the updates, and thank you all dear Raewoners for your input.  It is so nice to come here and read your conversations.

No Wedding Bells Yet for ‘Doctors’ Star Kim Rae Won

 

South Korean Movie Stars Protest Against Film Quota Cuts (Photo : Getty Images)

  Even if the Hallyu "Doctors" just ended, the medical drama’s star, Kim Rae Won, has not marriage plans yet. He is like “Descendants of the Sun” actor Song Joong-ki who is hounded with wedding rumors despite saying they are only close friends and not lovers with their co-stars.

 

Movienewsguide quoted Kim Rae Won, now 35, as saying, “I filmed two movies and have a lot to do still. [Marriage] probably won’t be for another few years. I’m not self-centered, but I have big dreams for the 2nd leg of my career.”

 

Although “Doctors” failed to dislodge “W” from the top spot in terms of viewership, the medical drama still retained its faithful fans because of the good chemistry between Hong Ji Hong, the character he plays, with Yoo Hye Jung, the character played by Park Shin Hye.

 

He assured that what is going between them is only an on-screen relationship. Kim Raw Won pointed out, “We cannot but have good chemistry because she really cares about an actor who plays the opposite role. There are actors who care only about their roles. But in this drama, Shin-hye and I were all open to each other and thus had no other option but to show good chemistry. Acting cannot be done alone.”

 

He explained the good chemistry to teamwork by discussing how they would tackle a scene as well as being open to each other. Like Song Joong-ki too who was not the first choice to pay the role of the doctor, Kim Rae won was also not the choice to play the actor because he was previously identified with very strong roles.

 

“Doctors” aired over SBS 20 episodes of the TV series from June 20 through Aug. 23.

P.S. They used one of my favorite photos of him.  I think he was on the cover of "Life" with this photo. He went to that protest with Lee Jung-Jin.

LA is hot right now so probably will be like the photoshoot he did in Bali showed his abs (i hopelessly  hopeeee  it happen)  but it's Marie Claire Photoshoot they said. so.... they might wont showing his abs  not manly photoshoot i guess .....

Im sorry i killed your excitement lol  

[peanuts281]

no wedding bells yet? what about lala01's trip with oppa to Las Vegas? 

haha, just kidding. If only lala01 was able to see him, by coincidence, that would be awesome. I imagine LA is big, highest chance is to camp at LAX airport, but work is getting in the way , I suppose 

ah it's a photoshoot for Marie Claire.. well, they are very stylish. So it's OK about the absence of abs  I'm sure we will see it again someday in the future haha

 

[sunflower001]

No abs ??? Dang !!!! Hahaa ! Its ok..I can live with old photos of him showing his abs that I saw earlier ! 

If its Marie Claire then lets hope its done in a stylish sophisticated manner

Actor Kim Rae-won talks about chemistry with actress Park Shin-hye in 'Doctors'

 

 

SEOUL, Aug. 26 (Yonhap) -- Kim Rae-won, hero of the just-ended medical series "Doctors," has confused some viewers regarding whether he was in a relationship with actress Park Shin-hye in real life with his way of looking at her in the drama.

And now he has opened up about the on-screen chemistry he shares with his co-star Park.

"We cannot but have good chemistry because she really cares about an actor who plays the opposite role," the 35-year-old actor said during a news conference for the SBS series at the SBS headquarters in Mokdong, southwestern Seoul.

 

"There are actors who care only about their roles. But in this drama, Shin-hye and I were all open to each other and thus had no other option but to show good chemistry," he said with his trademark bright grin.

"Acting cannot be done alone. In that sense, I think Shin-hye is a really clever actress," he added.

"Doctors" depicts a coming-of-age story of Yoo Hye-jung (Park Shin-hye), a female high school bully who slowly changes, influenced by her supportive new homeroom teacher Hong Ji-hong (Kim Rae-won). Years later, they meet again as doctors in the neurology department of a hospital and fall in love.

Aired in South Korea from June 20 through Aug. 23, the 20-episode drama has garnered an impressive viewership of around 20 percent on average. The viewership was the highest among all dramas shown simultaneously at 10 p.m. on Mondays and Tuesdays.

When questioned about if he felt uncomfortable in acting out a romance with the young actress who is nine years his junior, his answer was "No, not at all."

   "Park and other junior actors rather felt comfortable with me and treated me like their brother who is a few years older than them. So everything went naturally without having to discuss much about how to act."

   But he confessed that he changed his hair style to look much younger than his actual age.

After the show's success, Kim said he is now happier than ever with the massive arrival of TV commercial offers.

"I'm really happy because viewers loved the drama very much," he said, adding that he now wants to do another show like it if he can.

"Doctors" was his first melodrama in five years after "A Thousand Days' Promise" in 2011. He next starred in the 2014 SBS TV legal thriller series "Punch," in which he played a prosecutor who learns he has a brain tumor and just six months to live.

He then explored the role of an edgy complicated tough guy in the gangster film "Gangnam Blues" (2015) co-staring Lee Min-ho.

But such characters did not create as much buzz from viewers as when he radiated the amicable Prince Charming image he is known for.

He made his debut in 1997 through the drama "Me" and since then has played romantic heroes in such hit dramas like "Rooftop Room Cat" (2003) and "Love Story in Harvard" (2004), and films like "... ing" (2003) and "My Little Bride" (2004).

"I didn't mean to avoid romantic comedies but just wanted to do something new and interesting."

   Since he had not done any medical dramas before, he wasted no time in accepting the casting offer for "Doctors" as soon as he read the script.

But as he shifted to the drama right after finishing the filming of a local movie, he confessed that he had no time to fully prepare for the role.

"I want to do a doctor character once again, in a really professional way next time. If I had more time, I would have visited an operating room to watch how doctors work," he said.
