Eeek! I can't wait for Yejin's new drama....i'm so happy right now

[Guest Syjfan]

cant wait! she's not anymore the innocent type... more of the married woman coz of April Snow... well.. we'll not see the "innocent" Ye-jin sometime soon!

Whatever role she talks, she is still as beautiful. The softness, gentleness, innocence and intelligence will always come from her face and eyes...

And old interview about AMTR.

Jung Woo-sung & Son Ye-jin

Talking about Love and Memory

Autumn has come. Trees are shedding their leaves. The crunchy sound of fallen leaves under your feet makes you feel sentimental. It's the perfect time for a heartbreaking love story. The Eraser in My Head is probably the quintessential autumn movie. The film portrays love, romance, and of course, heartbreak. The Teen Times met the two actors of the movie, Jung Woo-sung and Sohn Ye-jin, to talk about their new movie

Question: Why did you decide to star in this film?

Jung: When I finished reading the scenario, I didn't hesitate to take the role because of the ending scene. It is a sad story, but the last scene makes us think about hope.

Sohn: I loved its peculiar and unusual subject -- Alzheimer's disease. My character Soo-jin loses her memory as time goes by. Once, she had a very happy life with Jung's character. But soon, the beautiful memories fade away little by little. The fact that I had to express her varied feelings attracted me.

Q: Mr. Jung, what would it be like if something like that happened in real life?

Jung: Well, it's very hard to answer. To be honest with you, I'm not sure. If my girlfriend contracted a disease such as Alzheimer's, I think I would try to do my best for her. But the pain and grief someone would feel if their loved one lost every memory about them is indescribable.

Sohn: If I were in Soo-jin's shoes, I think I would let my loved one go as my character did. It will be very cruel to lose all my memories of him and still keep him by my side.

Q:Mr. Jung, you have shown a very tender and sensitive side to you in this movie. This differs from your tough guy image.

Jung: Oh, I am a sensitive guy (laughs). I just didn't have the chance to show my tenderness. However, it's also the result of hard effort. I tried very hard to portray my character. And my own experiences of love helped me a lot.

Q:Miss Sohn, you cry a lot in the movie. Was it hard?

Sohn: You can't even imagine how hard it was. To make myself sad enough to cry, I listened to melancholy songs. The director recommended some really sad songs for me. I sometimes got really exhausted after shooting the crying scenes. Also, the sad emotions lingered on for a long time. I kept on feeling sad and depressed even after finishing the scenes.

Q:What do you think love is?

Jung: I can't define love with one word. Love is a very difficult thing, I think. It's like a ghost -- we can't see, touch or smell it. We can only feel it deep inside our heart. That's why love is so precious.

Sohn: You may not believe what I'm saying, but I'm quite inexperienced in love. I have never even been on a blind date. These days, however, I'd like to have a boyfriend. After experiencing true love, maybe I'll tell you what love is all about (laughs).

Q:Miss Sohn, you always choose melodramas. This is your fifth. Is there a reason for this?

Sohn: Well, I think I prefer the romance genre to any other. I have experienced many different kinds of love in my acting career, but I still don't know what love is. Maybe I'll find out after shooting 10 more movies about love (laughs).

Q:What would you like to say for our readers?

Jung: Never give up on your dreams. When I was young, I really tried my best to accomplish my dreams. It was my dream that kept me going through the most difficult periods of my life. A life without a dream is like a flower without scent.

Male lead

i'm sorry..but this guy is not good looking at all...i wonder how he would look next to the ever beautiful Yejin...i prolly would be discouraged in seeing this because the guy doesn't look compatible at all...i know it's sorta shallow of me, but chemistry (even looks-wise) can make or break a drama and i just want Yejin's drama to do well

Many fans say this...but don't worry.

Many fans say the same for Jung Woo Sung when AMTR was initially announced, then the same about Sung Il Kook when Arts of Seduction was announced. Both cases turned out to be untrue.

Let's trust Ye jin decision because she has been offered lots of projects and will only choose a good one.

As long as the male lead acts well in the drama and has good chemistry with Ye jin, he will be good enough.

It's not easy to find male lead that we think is good enough for our goddess...he he..

Yup! definitely!!He's not the uber handsome kind, but I've seen his previous works,he can bring his charms to screen most defnitely! And sometimes, its these non-pinup faces that allow us to focus on the drama's plot more instead of drooling over the faces. I'm sure yehjin can pull this one off!!

Cant wait for 2006!!

[Guest hazel_witch]

so many things to wait for 2006!!!
