willenette Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Kim Soo Hyun Is the One Who Introduced Park So Joon to His First Agency? The relationship between Park Seo Joon and Kim Soo Hyun has been revealed. Recently, OBS’s Unique Entertainment News (literal translation) introduced the story of actor Park Seo Joon. Park Seo Joon actually faced a tough time even after he was discharged from the military. When he auditioned, people pointed out his face that he “didn’t have a face for an actor” or “was old-fashioned” and also criticized his “child-like” way of talking. With the constant failures, Park Seo Joon even thought of undergoing plastic surgery, but decided to put more effort to show his charm that slowly and quietly captivates people. Then, when he was working as a bit-part actor in a short film, his friend Kim Soo Hyun introduced him to KeyEast, and Park Seo Joon signed a contract with the company after a short meeting without an audition, finally taking a step further as an actor. In 2011, He finally made his official debut by starring in Bang Yong Guk’s “I Remember” music video and took on the role of Shi Woo in Dream High 2 in 2012. Then in 2013, he met drama I Summon You, Gold! that gave him a turning point in his acting career. One day, he got a call from the company that there will be an audition for the drama later that day, and ran to the studio. There, he performed one of his most confident audition repertoires, Architecture 101’s Nab Deuk Yi scene, and came through a competition of 100 to 1 to get the role of Park Hyun Tae. Since then, he starred in various dramas, including Witch’s Romance, Kill Me, Heal Me, She Was Pretty, What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim, and Itaewon Class, solidifying his position as the next Hallyu star.

willenette Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 tvN and Netflix's original drama "It's Okay To Not Be Okay" receives sanctions for the usage of slander, genitalization, and justification of sexual harassment The broadcasting review subcommittee of the Korea Communications Standards Commission submitted the tvN drama 'It's Okay To Not Be Okay' to the plenary session with the opinion of judicial sanctions. On August 26th KST, the Broadcasting Review Subcommittee of the Korea Communications Standards Commission (Chairman Heo Mi Sook) stated at a meeting held at the broadcasting center in Mok-dong, Seoul, that tvN and OtvN's 'It's Okay To Not Be Okay' were submitted to the plenary session with the opinion that the drama portrayed contents of male genitalization, sexual harassment, justification of sexual harassment, and explicit verbal abuse. The Korea Communications Standards Commission stated, "Considering that it is an expression to highlight the characters of the characters in the drama, broadcasting content that has possibly focused on the libido on non-sexual objects that symbolize the sex organs and justify sexual harassment clearly shows the lack of gender sensitivity of the production team. The excessive verbal abuse that is used in the drama that is aired during the youth viewing protection time has inevitably led to court sanctions." If the degree of violation of regulations related to broadcasting review is severe, penalties or court sanction will be finalized at a plenary session consisting of all nine members of the review committee upon the recommendation of the subcommittee. Points will be deducted from the broadcasting evaluation conducted annually by the Korea Communications Commission if broadcasters, news reports, cable channels, and home shopping PPs are subject to fines or legal sanctions. source : allkpop https://www.allkpop.com/article/2020/08/tvn-and-netflixs-original-drama-its-okay-to-not-be-okay-receives-sanctions-for-the-usage-of-slander-genitalization-and-justification-of-sexual-harassment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
