Awwww @ssteph, the photo of Joong Ki sitting on the couch with the white sweater looking away smiling made my heart skip a beat, too handsome 

I am re-watching Nice Guy and still feel so much in love with the Chaeki couple although it has been 9 years already. Am I the only weird one here while my fav drama is Arthdal Chronicles, my fav character is Captain Yoo, but my fav partner with Joong Ki is Moon Chae Won

Glad to hear that I am not alone

I used to ship Chaeki couple, but after 2017, I have decided to become a Joong Ki fan only, will not ship couple anymore. Although I have to say Joong Ki has good chemistry with whoever he works with.

 

So Bogota filming has ended, such a beautiful scenery there.

 

Does anyone know when Bogota is expected to be shown in big screen? Pray that its plan will not be hinder by hindered by Covid.

Joong Ki's birthday is coming soon, it is next Sunday. He might already have plans to enjoy his special day with beloved family and friends. Hope his agency will update some pics in Instagram for us

Can't believe he turns 37 soon, he always looks like 25, when I first saw him in SKKS

*** thanks for sharing the info - The shooting of the movie started last year, right? However, I know it was paused because of the COVID-19 issue. And now, they had wrapped-up the filming. The release date of the movie is not confirmed yet, though. I hope we could get the official statement on the release date of "Bogota" soon. It was reported 2021, right?

*** Thanks for sharing this. The event will focus on offline screenings and programs. So many films from 70 countries were invited to screen at this year’s event. Unlike other international film festivals held in Korea, BIFF has not formed any partnerships with local streaming platforms. All of the invited films will be screened at local theaters. However, only 50 percent of the seats per theater will be filled in line with the governmental social distancing measures.

*** Looking forward to see SJK in Busan Film Festival soon.  Last year, there were no opening or closing ceremonies and no one from abroad was invited due to the COVID-19 pandemic. I can say that this year's opening ceremony will be held normally.

[willenette]

***  tvN is partnering with TVing to run a vote for the audiences’ favorite K-drama in the network’s 15-year span. tvN has so many great dramas. I’ve watched so many dramas from this cable network. I can say that tvN is the HBO of SK. And running down the list are "Vincenzo" & "Arthdal Chronicles"  -

5 passionate and artistic roles of Song Joong Ki that dubbed him as a versatile ‘Hallyu Star’

 

 

Song Joong Ki, born September 19, 1985, is a versatile actor. He rose to fame in the historical coming-of-age drama ‘Sungkyunkwan Scandal’ (2010) and the variety show ‘Running Man’ (2010–2011) as one of the original cast members.

 

Since then, he has played a diverse spectrum of roles in the television series ‘The Innocent Man’ (2012), ‘Descendants of the Sun’ (2016), ‘Arthdal Chronicles’ (2019) and ‘Vincenzo’ (2021), as well as the hit films ‘A Werewolf Boy’ (2012), ‘The Battleship Island’ (2017) and ‘Space Sweepers’ (2021).

Spoiler

1. Captain Yoo Shi Jin- Descendants of the Sun 

The Captain and leader of Alpha Team, a fictional elite special forces team of the 707th Special Mission Battalion in South Korea. Shi Jin cares little for the politics of war and believes in protecting and defending those who need help, his country and his men's honour, even if it means having to question his superiors' orders. His light-hearted approach to life and witty sense of humour make him popular with his team and subordinates but Mo Yeon (Song Hye Kyo) quickly realizes that it is his way of deflecting her questions about his job and coping with the pain of losing comrades. He falls in love with Mo Yeon at first sight but gets rejected by her three times. His charming and sunny personality held a lot of pain and grief from memories that he locked away. Song Joong Ki does a great job of bringing the emotions to the screen, which made a lot of fans fall for him. 

2. Vincenzo Cassano- Vincenzo 

An Italian lawyer and Mafia consigliere of Korean descent. He is the adopted son of the late boss of the Cassano Family. He is Geumga Plaza's true owner and usually wears a nice, fancy bespoke suit. He becomes an Advisor/Foreign Legal Counsel to Jipuragi Law Firm, working with Hong Cha-young to destroy the Babel Group and reclaim the gold hidden in Geumga Plaza. Vincenzo is his first attempt at comedy and he has absolutely knocked it out of the park! 

3. Eun Seom and Saya- Arthdal Chronicles

Eun Seom and Saya (Song Joong-ki) are identical twins. Eun Seom is the son of Asa Hon and Neanthal, Ragaz. A member of the Wahan tribe of Iark, a foreigner to Arthdal. Ta-gon's most powerful enemy, in the days to come. The offspring of an alien relationship not accepted in Arthdal. Eun Seom and Saya are a mixed race of the Saram (human race) and the Neanthal, a pair of Igutus born during the Great War. He did a great job at portraying the contradicting characters with ease, further proving him as a versatile actor. 

4. Kang Ma Ru- The Innocent Man

A smart but poor medical student who has to look after his little sister without any parents. He was in love with Jae Hee but she left him for a rich CEO as she always dreamt of being rich, but she always loved Ma Ru and still harbours feelings for him. Six years after Jae Hee left he became arrogant and a playboy who works as a bartender. He approached Eun-gi as part of his revenge plan against Jae-hee but he started to care for her and eventually fell in love. Song Joong Ki truly brought the cold, hard and callous personality of Kang Ma Ru on screen, making it one of his most revered characters. 

5. Chul Soo- A Werewolf Boy

One day, Sun-yi (Park Bo Young) discovers a feral boy of about 19 in their yard. His blood type is unidentifiable, and he can neither read nor speak. Even though he behaves like a wild beast, Sun-yi's kindhearted mother adopts him and names him Chul Soo, assuming he's one of more than 60,000 children orphaned in the Korean War. Song Joong Ki as an innocent, harmless and curious boy hit the hearts of all the fans. His chemistry with Park Bo Young was palpable and even though he hardly had any lines, his emotions were very well displayed through his expressions. 

6. Kim Tae Ho- Space Sweepers

Tae Ho (Song Joong-Ki) is a pilot of Spaceship Victory, which is led by a captain (Kim Tae-Ri). Tae Ho will do anything to make money, but he is always broke. Song Joong Ki portrayed the fear and guilt of losing their child which brought the viewers to tears. His money-grubbing, selfish and arrogant behaviour was also on spot as some fans were even angry at that character!

Seeing his wide range of characters, it’s safe to say that Song Joong Ki definitely lives up to the hype. After 13 years, he has managed to display various kinds of emotions, proving his worth as an actor and we were happy to recount all his memorable characters on the joyful occasion of his birthday.
