*** According to News1’s report on March 18th, actor Noh Sang-hyun will star alongside Kim Woo Bin and Suzy in “Everything Shall Come True”.  Noh Sang-hyun is expected to play a character who has a conflict with Genie and reveal a deep narrative hidden behind the backgrounds of these two characters who were once brothers but are now rivals. I'm familiar with his acting because Noh Sang-hyun  has starred in AppleTV+’s series “Pachinko” (2022) as Baek Isaac, the husband of the main character Sunja (Kim Min-ha). I also watched him when he appeared in “Curtain Call” (2022), alongside Kang Ha Neul. I'm looking forward to his chemistry with Kim Woo-bin and Suzy in “Everything Shall Come True”. The drama is under production with the goal of airing this year.

*** On the afternoon of March 19, Kim Woo-bin recently made an appearance at a fashion event and he looks more handsome than ever, showing off his tall and sturdy figure with wide shoulders.  I'm impressed with his stylish appearance, looking extremely dashing and elegant in a suit. However, during the photo session, Kim Woo-bin encountered a problem when the flash directly shone into his eyes, causing him to be blinded due to bright light and his eyes seemed hurt. He had to squint his eyes continuously, even temporarily stopping posing, turning away for a few seconds and shedding tears. I got worried as this could potentially affect his eyesight.

3+ Beloved K-Celebrity Couples Who Have Been Together For Over 5 Years

What a line up.

 

The pressure in the Korean entertainment industry makes it so that only a few couples stand together for many, many years. Despite the glaring spotlight and the pressure it brings, these celebrities have nurtured their relationships, proving that love can indeed flourish in the limelight. Here are four Korean celebrity couples whose relationships have lasted over five years, proving that love can withstand all.

 

 

2. Kim Woo Bin & Shin Min Ah

 

The relationship between Kim Woo Bin and Shin Min Ah is a moving narrative of love, empathy, and unwavering support.

 

Having publicly acknowledged their relationship in July 2015, the couple faced a significant challenge when Kim Woo Bin was diagnosed with nasopharyngeal cancer in 2017.

 

Throughout his treatment and recovery, Shin Min Ah remained a steadfast support, showcasing the depth of their bond.

 

Their love, tested by adversity, has only grown stronger, marked by thoughtful gestures like Kim Woo Bin sending a coffee truck to Shin Min Ah’s filming site for Diva. Their nine-year journey together is a powerful reminder of how love can conquer even the toughest challenges.

*** On March 22, Kim Woo Bin shows support to Shin Min Ah by sending a coffee truck to the filming location of her upcoming drama Karma. Their adorable relationship continues to melt my heart. They constantly shower each other with affection. The coffee truck was decorated with beautiful pink flowers, along with Shin Min Ah’s face plastered all over. On the banner, Kim Woo Bin wishes the cast of Karma all the best for their ongoing task. Previously, Shin Min Ah also sent a food truck to show her support for Kim Woo Bin during his shoot for the Officer Black Belt movie. The couple has been going strong for many years now.  They stick together through thick and thin. Their love is truly unbreakable. When Kim Woo Bin battled cancer, Shin Min Ah remained by his side, offering her support, which made their relationship even stronger.

*** Kim Woo Bin covered the April issue of Esquire.  Kim Woo Bin said in an interview here, "I'm looking forward to my next drama "All Your Wishes Will Come True" with director Lee Byeong-heon-I, writer Kim Eun-sook and fellow actors. I played the role of the Genie who makes wishes come true, and Ga-yeong (Bae Suzy) is the one who takes the Genie out of the lamp. It will be a cheerful romantic comedy". Meanwhile, he showed his true self in a tvN show called "Beans and Red Beans". He also said, "Although I appeared for a while in season 2 of "Somehow Boss", "Beans and Red Beans" was my first time appearing on an entertainment show. That was me in the highest tension of my life. You can think of them as the real me. I thought showing good works was the only way I could communicate with my fans, but this time I started a new variety show, and just before that, I started Instagram for the first time. I will gradually expand the channel of communication." The April 2024 issue of Esquire will be available at bookstores from the 21st, and will also be available on the Esquire Korea website.

'Alienoid: Return to the Future' invited to international film festivals

The sci-fi action film "Alienoid: Return to the Future," the sequel to the 2022 blockbuster "Alienoid," has been invited to two international film festivals — Italy's Far East Film Festival (FEFF) and the Brussels International Fantastic Film Festival (BIFFF).

 

The film's distributor, CJ ENM, said Monday that both of the film series will be competing at this year's FEFF, which will run from April 24 to May 2 in Udine, Italy.

 

The film's director, Choi Dong-hoon, is expected to attend the film festival in Udine and engage with the audience.

 

"I am confident that this exciting story will garner a fandom in the West. Integrating various periods and genres, the 'Alienoid' series brings together science fiction, martial arts, mystery, comedy, drama, and top-notch action and will take the audience on a magical adventure," Sabrina Baracetti, the director and co-founder of FEFF, said in a statement. "The best way to enjoy this movie is to watch both parts."

FEFF, the largest film festival in Europe to promote Asian films, will feature 11 titles from Korea, including the recent smash-hit films "12.12: The Day," "Exhuma" and the upcoming action film "The Roundup: Punishment."

 

"Alienoid: Return to the Future" has also been invited to the 42nd BIFFF, which will be held from April 9 to 21 in Brussels. The film will be screened on April 13.

 

The festival, dedicated to acknowledging horror, thriller and science fiction films, is considered among the world's most prestigious fantastic film festivals, along with the Sitges Film Festival in Spain and the Fantasporto Film Festival in Portugal.

 

Other Korean films invited to this year's BIFFF include "Exhuma," the upcoming thriller "4PM" and the horror film "The Sin."

 

The star-studded action blockbuster film, which hit theaters in January, revolves around an android from 2022, Guard (Kim Woo-bin), who captures escaped alien criminals and his human daughter, Lee Ahn (Kim Tae-ri). While on the job to chase the criminals, a time portal opens, taking him and Lee to the 918–1392 Goryeo Kingdom.

 

After losing her dad and being stuck in time for 10 years, Lee fights to take over a legendary divine sword against Taoist magicians and save humanity.

 

Despite the high expectations set by its A-list cast, the first "Alienoid" film experienced a lukewarm reception at the box office, achieving just over 1.5 million ticket sales. Hopes were high that the sequel would outperform its predecessor with a more fast-paced plot and bigger action sequences, yet it similarly struggled to win over the hearts of moviegoers, selling only about 1.4 million tickets.
