Ji Chang Wook 지창욱 - Upcoming Dramas: "The Queen Woo" (우씨왕후) (TVING) / "Bulk" (벌크) (JTBC) / Upcoming Movie "Revolver" (리볼버)

[cherkell]

@cherkell - Thanks so much for the translation.  Really appreciate all the hard work that you & Gabby (Spore) has done for us.

This one was all Gabby, so please send all compliments her way!  With my trial schedule, I cannot even attempt the longer articles; I much prefer the IGs and the short blurbs (which match my short attention span as well).  hehe

And all this talk about salaries... even the K-netz are having a hissy fit over some of these numbers.  50,000,000 won = ~ $41,000 USD per episode ain't that much compared to Hollywood standards.  And then people only see the numbers and not take into consideration that the "star" has to pay his management company, his stylists and coordis, his transportation costs, his insurance premiums, etc. This is why they take on the CFs and magazine shoots and attend fashion events for clothing sponsorships and other epherma in order to just keep afloat.

I wouldn't want to be a Hallyu Star in this day and age.  Too risky and your shelf life is finite.  *sigh*

Hi everybody !!! Oh my it has been so long!!! I don't even if anyone remembers me lol  anyways it's good to be back after being MIA for so long . I'll be honest I got hooked on an American Drama over the summer and I also was diagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome so I did my best to stay away from my phone and laptop . Typing with wrist braces isn't fun at all!!! 

 

I still love JCW can't stop watching Healer and Empress Ki because of him.  Can't wait for his film hopefully they will show it here in Los Angeles. Sadly I am a bit pic the loop all I know is that he is in the latest issue of Grazia and something about Konus event in SK not so sure . Looks like I'll be doing a lot of backtracking through this thread .

[cherkell]

And he's off to Taiwan!

[Event] Ji Chang Wook’s busy first day in Taiwan

Ji Chang Wook arrived in Taiwan this morning to much fanfare, with more than 200 fans waiting to welcome him at the airport. Upon arriving, fans rushed forth to offer him gifts and photocards for him to sign. He paused to hand out a few autographs before being whizzed away by an entourage of sports cars and staff dressed as Healers.

Ji Chang Wook was scheduled to attend a press conference at the atrium of GTV’s building at 3.30pm to promote the drama “Healer”. As his flight was delayed by an hour, the event only started 40 minutes later.

Having kept an entire room of media and fans waiting, Ji Chang Wook flashed a smile when he appeared and courteously apologised and thanked everyone for waiting. When the emcee sat at the wrong seat, he gestured to exchange seats. The crowd would burst out screaming each time he opened his mouth to speak, and he shyly greeted everyone in Chinese.

Look at the pics in SuYoungShim IG, just want to hug him.

Everyone, let make a group hug for uri Wookie. 

Sure he is hungry LOL.

[nplonly]

This is very cute and sweet of Ji Chang Wook to his friend. I have to share!

 

cred: as labelled

 

Are you curious what snack was he feeding manager Bang?

crd: kimthere_ Twitter

 

 

There are a lot more fans waiting for him at the airport than the first fan meeting. Hehe...it's so funny that they set up the security guys dressed up as Healer. 

He said he is close to Seo In Guk. That's quite surprising. He doesn't know how to get close to Shim Eun Kyung, hahaha...didn't he know that she already followed him on Instagram?

 A bit late to the game but I can't resist checking in although I am supposed to be working [yea, on a Saturday, no less]! Just wanted to share those goodies above.

JCW Kitchen team is amazing! Thank you for that interview translation! I feel it is by far the most insightful and entertaining interview. Totally enjoyed it!!

@Maja - When is this boy not ever look tired these days? LOL, sighhhh. And oh, I spotted 10c, but unfortunately it's not usable for us, *wink*.

@ReemKanabta - Bingo.

Lastyly, hehehe! I find the below picture rather amusing Hopefully Muzzy will release it in HD, but for now, let's just enjoy it through her preview. "79-ya, I know you got your girl now, but no excuse to loosen up like that." No wonder Wookie is unhappy lately, he's seen way too 'relaxed' eh? Eating well, sleeping well and all, while Wookie sweats at work. Kekeke.

[Guest minksquared]

@nploan - that's a lovely picture of Wookie-79!

 

And here's a video to accompany that snapshot - https://twitter.com/aozora8779/status/640053510139056128/

I saw this earlier and thought how cool the Taiwanese are to escort him in Healer garb! Totally awesome!!

Wow @ReemKanabta is so perceptive! I was wondering who is @fantasia  Where's your lovely saeguk lady???
