peonie Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 A classmate whom I have not seen for a number of years surprised me with a treasured gift when I met her recently in Vancouver, B.C: The first copy of the M by men’s uno magazine - Fall 2003-2004 I described this as a “treasured” gift because this was the first time ever that Byunghun-ssi appeared on the cover of a non-Korean magazine. Through a lot of persuasion, the publisher not only convinced him to appear on the cover but obtained BH’s consent for a series of photos and an interview. The following is an excerpt of the article. Please bear in mind that this article is over ten years old and only discussed dramas and movies made prior to 2003. Korea’s highest paid, principal actor. Melancholic Charisma In mid summer of 2003 in Seoul, Korea, Lee Byung Hun, wearing a starched suit, leisurely lit a cigarette. His silent thoughts slowly emerged through his smoke rings. His deep set eyes revealed a touch of melancholy. It is often believed that a man may have experienced vicissitudes of life to become mature. After all, sorrow can make a people grow. In today’s era, tears are no longer a woman’s perogative. We asked Lee Byung Hun his most unforgettable grief. He thought for a moment and said, “ Five years ago, my father passed away, which made me very sad. Even now, I always think of him.” He still spoke with a trace of sadness. Sadness may not necessarily be expressed through a lot of noises, from moving hands and stomping feet. Lee Byung Hun’s charm is his inadvertent expression of grief. Dedication and seriousness is Lee Byung Hun’s life philosophy. Although his acting is much highly praised, his demand for his acting has not slackened. Lee Byung Hun believes that in what ever he does, he has to fully concentrate and do it wholeheartedly in order to achieve the best results. Lee Byung Hun states in no uncertain terms that "The most important thing for a man is to be responsible for everything that he has done." He also thinks that this is a quality that a perfect man must possess. Talking about his previous roles, he said his most memorable role was that of a boxer not long after he took up acting. "That was six or seven years ago, the boxer is a nobody that people would look down on, the type that was often unhappy, and was uneducated. Given the opportunity, I would like to redo that role.” Lee Byung Hun believes that in order to improve his acting, he must review his performance regularly. Of all the characters that he has played in his career, his favourite role is that the stubborn Min-chul in “Beautiful Days”. There is a similarity between Min-chul and the real Lee Byung Hun. Beneath the toughness and coldness, is a gentle and warm person, only not obviously revealed. There is no crash course for developing charisma. Through years, Lee Byung Hun shook off his greenness and added some weathering, just like the the high school teacher “In-woo”, in “Bungee Jumping Of Their Own”. He said: “ It was quite a difficult role to play because the movie cover 20 odd years. The role was of an innocent and pure university student being transformed to a mature man, having endured emotional damages and life challenges. I liked the role very much, because the high school teacher was really affectionate. When his girlfriend suddenly disappeared, he still believes they may one day be reunited. ” Lee Byung Hun hand wrote a message for men’s uno: “A man must be responsible for all his action.” Source: M by men’s uno First edition, Fall/Winter 2003/04 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks to mistymorning for the translated fan-description.Somebody rang the door early in the morning, saying he's a movie staff, - I thought what a crook - but he said they're filming in the back of the house so it might become somewhat noisy, and gave this mug.The left is the title of the movie "Insiders" on the right is LBH's signature, with a 'Thank you' note.

rubie Posted July 3, 2014 Author Share Posted July 3, 2014 Saw the topic before but didn't realize that LBH-LMJ included in the compilation June 28, 2014K-Celeb Double Dates That Need to Happenby CallMeN00NA soompi.comFrom A-List actors to popular idols, Korean celebrities have been either announcing their relationships or being photographed on not-so-discreet dates on an almost monthly basis. It’s happening so often, that it’s not as interesting. Korean celebrity dating isn’t cool, you know what’s cool? Korean celebrity double dating. That’s right. This needs to be the future of Korean celebrity scandals. In the Western celebrity world, Kim Kardashian, Kanye West, Beyonce, and Jay-Z are having double dates at fashion show and court-side seats at NBA games (with the paparazzi as their fifth wheel). Where are my Korean celebrity double dates? I want to see Dispatch release blurry, zoomed-in photos of four idols having a double date in one of their Mercede Benz. Is that too much to ask? So here are some of Noona’s double date scenarios that need to happen in the real life. Talk about power couples! Kwon Sang Woo and Lee Byung Hun are rightfully two of Korea’s most charismatic leading men, and their wives are two of Korea’s most beautiful women, Son Tae Young and Lee Min Jung. The double date: Kwon Sang Woo and Son Tae Young invite the other couple over to their secret chateau for horseback riding and fencing. In the evening they have wine and steak next to a blazing fireplace while they passionately discuss the future of Korean cinema. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peonie Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Special interview with Lee Byung Hun in Milan by Apple DailyLee Byung Hun successfully broke into the Hollywood market with the movie “G I Joe: The Rise of Cobra” in 2009. He immediately shot the GI Joe’s sequel “ G.I. Joe Retaliation” and “Red 2”. All these grossed over hundreds of millions of US Dollars, making Lee Byung Hun an international superstar. This year, Lee Byung Hun was selected for his fourth Hollywood movie, co-starring with Arnold Schwarzenegger in “Terminator: Genesis”. When Lee Byung Hun accepted an exclusive interview with this newspaper reporter, he revealed that his childhood nickname was ‘The Terminator’ and he will challenge the role of a real villain for the first time. With respect to his successful entry into the U.S. market, Lee Byung Hun admitted, in the interview, that he is enjoying these opportunities. However, he has no plans to stay there for further developing his overall career. He said: "I perform best in the Korean language, therefore my main base will still be Korean movies. I definitely would not give this up. I am still a rookie in the United States, and will keep on learning.” Lee Byung Hun stated frankly that the working methods of South Korean differ from that of the US. While South Korea emphasizes on the thorough understanding of the actor’s condition and situation, the US has a very reasonable system, that can help the actors and crews work within a fixed schedule. Lee Byung Hun has been to Hong Kong for a number of times. He praises the vibrancy of the Hong Kong people. The gourmet food is most able to satisfy his appetite. He has met with many Hong Kong entertainers, his favorite being Tony Leung with his electric eyes. Portraying the Liquid Metal Man, a villain With respect to cooperating with Arnold in “Terminator Genesis”, he praised the film series and stated that he considers the Terminator series of movies the best action films that he has watched as a child. He even revealed that his childhood nickname is ‘the Terminator.’ Therefore being able to participate in this movie is an honour for him. Although it is widely believed that he plays the role of villains in Hollywood, he stressed that it is difficult to define whether his previous roles were that of heroes or villains. He said with a smile that in “Terminator: Genesis” he will definitely play his first genuine villain role. It is known that he will portray the villain, the Liquid metal man: T-1000.
