Korean Drama To Watch

The Heirs…My Love from the Stars…Do you remember the Korean dramas that swept our hearts in 2014? Korean soap operas are taking the world by storm and even influencing foreigners to learn Korean and Korean culture. After the female lead from My Love from the Stars, Jun Ji-hyun, mentioned “beer and fried chicken” in one episode, it significantly boosted chicken & beer sales in China. -

Dramas are being translated into multiple languages so that audiences beyond the domestic market can follow all the latest “K-dramas”. It is amazing to see this change in perception especially when one considers the war-stricken country that Korean was 60 years ago. Did you know that a huge turning point and growth driver for the Korean economy was… the steel industry?

Into the Flames, which begins to air this month on TV Chosun, attempts to dramatize the true story of the founding of POSCO, Korea’s leading steelmaker, during Korea’s more turbulent times.

Into the Flames, the dramatized founding story of POSCO




Into the Flames takes place during the 1960~70s with Korea depicted as a poor, war-ravaged country. It is during this period that Korea began to modernize as passions transformed into reality. The dreams of the self-made man, the equivalent of the ‘American Dream’, was very much alive during this period. The beginnings of POSCO took place precisely during these times. -


The Story of Koreans Reaching for the Impossible




Into the Flames portrays the success story of one individual, Taehyung Park, who contributes greatly to the Korean economy. The story begins in Japan where Taehyung Park grows up beneath poor parents. During high school, he befriends Daechul Shin while playing Judo. The two friends meet a Japanese girl named Kumiko and fall in love with her. With her help, the two boys find work at a local steel plant. It is here that Taehyung Park discovers the intrigue of the steel industry. -




Like all beloved Korean dramas, Into the Flames has its share of lost love, challenges and dramatic twists. From the looks of it, there might be a love triangle forming between Taehyung Park, Daechul Shin and Kumiko. We can’t wait! -




Pictured here: Daechul Shin (played by Jin Ryu), Kumiko (played by Taeyoung Sohn) and Taehyung Park (Played by Soojong Choi) are the main characters that star in Into the Flames -


Later on in the story, the president of Korea sits down with Taehyung Park and proposes the idea of establishing a steel mill in Korea to rejuvenate the Korean economy. After deep contemplation, Taehyung Park charismatically says, “I will do it. I will try building a steel mill in this nation.” By overcoming hardships from the Japanese occupation and Korean War, he later establishes a steel mill which sets the stage for the beginning of POSCO. -




Behind-the-Scenes of Into the Flames


To capture the essence of this rich history, drama sets were created to imitate scenes of Pohang as well as at the former Blue House (President’s home) in Gyeongsangbuk-do region of Korea. -




Filming of the drama also involved very real action! The main character of the drama, Taehyung Park, played Judo during his youth. Therefore the young actors had to go through special training 3 to 4 times a week for an entire month in order to make the acting as real as possible.




The drama was very action packed with car explosions and helicopter appearances. For the scene with the car explosion, the film crew had to use a crane to bring the car down the cliff. We can expect a very intense drama to unfold, right? -







 Apparently the helicopter used during the filming is the same model as what Queen Elizabeth rides!  How exciting. We are curious about what role it plays in the drama episodes. -




The first airing of the drama is set for April 25th! We hope you are as excited as we are. Let us know what you think! -

Ryu Jin Appears in "Into the Fire"

Actor Ryu Jin is appearing in "Into the Fire".

Comprehensive channel TV Chosun released this fact saying that "Ryu Jin will play the role of Shin Dae Chul."

"Into the Fire" is about the success story and their love and loyalty as they overcome poverty and despair into economic development as it is a human story.

Shin Dae Chul who is played by Ryu Jin thinks that he is going to make a sacrifice for his friend but he doesn't make that sacrifice explicit on the outside and is a character with a great personality that's chill.  The protagonist Park Tae Hyung (played by Choi Soo Jong) is his childhood friend but he stays next to Kumiko (played by Son Tae Hyung) that loves Tae Hyung and conflicts between friendship and love as it pushes Kumiko and Tae Hyung to an edge.

The management said, "Shin Dae Chul getse conflicted between his only friend Tae Hyung and his love Kumiko.  Ryu Jin is the best person to take the role as he changes coldly for love and respect."

Ryu Jin said, "Shin Dae Chul and Tae Hyung are friends that went through everything together but they walk in different paths.  The conflicts in the drama are well represented and it will be interesting to see this great effort."

Meanwhile, "Into the Fire" which has started its official filming will be broadcast in April.

@omgomo13, welcome to the thread and thank you so much for the OST by Lee Ki-Chan. It is certainly more fun with others' contributions.

I always loved his voice and singing and this one is no exception. I love it...

I found the translation of the lyrics into English:

Even after time passes
Tears flow down once again
When the seashore follows the road
You are waiting

I sing without knowing
I sing about the flowers of the world
This body has lost its mind
As it goes back to that time

I look at the ocean
I look at the sky
But I just see you smiling
Calling me to you once again

The whole world is a festival
The whole world is excited
But the times that you left me are so cruel

I look at the ocean
I look at the sky
But I just see you smiling
Calling me to you once again

The whole world is a festival
The whole world is excited
But the times that you left me are so cruel

Recent photos of actress Lee In Hye shocked many as the usually youthful actress took on the role of an old lady. The role involved not only acting, but the complete look from head to toe. The actress’ role in the TV Chosun drama “Into the Flames” required the actress to play the wife of actor Choi Soo Jung.

As the actress filmed her scene back in April 3, Lee In Hye was able to draw praise from those on set for her ability to perfectly digest her role. A drama representative expressed, “We worried that it would be too much for Lee In Hye as she had to dress up as an old lady and speak English right from the beginning of filming, but she brought in admiration from all the staff as she was able to match her voice with the age she was playing.”

Furthermore, in regards to her acting Lee In Hye commented, “I don’t have a lot of air time since this drama is focused on the male actors. Yet, I will do my best to leave a lasting impression through my role.”

“Into the Flames” aired its first episode on April 25.

@irilight,... Thanks for the updates on this drama I had planned to watch this one also.. As I told suchadiva.. All the good dramas are playing on the weekends now so my weekend are pretty full with dramas alone.. 
This drama should be really good coming out of war and how the rich become born.. The actor who played in president he always plays in good dramas with good roles so I assume he always play a serious character so he will be the main lead
