By the way, while re-surfing again on LJAs thread here in soompi,I found this photo during one of the interviews about their promotional drama TWSSG held in Japan, BYJ side view image was quiet similar or alike with LJA ex-hubby, Seo Taiji.

loujaie said: Hey there damsu, yes I do remember now that it was during the MBC awards that he did mentioned. If they shall reconsider it of having a part 2 and would  be a modern drama then most probably like as I've mentioned awhile ago that a sort of a sequel of TWSSG but the plot will be in modern era or 20th or 21st century and this time a mixture of science fiction where the modern Damdeuk is the President. Then Sujini might be a presidential guard or member of NIS just like in Athena, which there will be an assassination plot of the president of which she will be able to protect the president from attack. Modern technologies will be also one of the concept of this drama (like the movie that I've watched a long time ago with the lead roleof Sandra Bolluck and Syllvester Stalone). Since it would be a sequel, then as I've said that there will be flash backs and nightmares now and then after assassination incident happen for both of them suffers concussions.Well, well I do hope that KJH and BYJ will reconsider and have a sequel by next year.

Hi Dam-su & loujaie. BYJ always want to challenge a new role that he has never played before. President Dam is really a very interesting role hahah...Let's imagine how attractive, dazzling, brilliant he is in that role! :x . And Sujini must be very beautiful in morden uniform as a guard or she maybe work for FBI...They will involve in a complicated relationship but go to a satisfied ending! (Sign...that just my dream...) Do you hear about any fanfic of TWSSG?

Hello everyone !!! I have been a silent reader of this BYJ thread for a while now. And I have known him since the WS days and thanks to netflix that I have  rewatched it over and over again. I have heard of TWSSG before and I thought that that would be the next Kdrama on my list and I admit, I had put it aside for so long that finally had a chance to watch it about a month ago. I  must say it's been too many times that I  have watched it over and over ( so does BYJ's other drama ). After that TWSSG's experience, I"ll say I haven't had days that I don't think of him more than once a day. People who knows me must say I'm crazy for thinking of some person whom I haven't even met. I guess that's not normal : ). Well, anyhow I'm glad that there are you guys who keep us updated on what's going on with him. I have read someone's comments that BYJ's face became " weird " or something and that they prefer him the way he look before on WS but heck , he's still the same guy and I'm already hooked. Thank's again .

hhhmmmm..... not much news again today, ey? i guess while waiting i'll post an old write up regarding the Dam-Su couple. i quite like this (former?)fan's(?) interpretation of Damdeok and Sujini's love and i totally second his/her thoughts. >-

LOVE THAT WITHSTOOD THE TEST OF TIME

source: Bae Yong Joon fan community
written by: bae_mac

She came into Damdeuk's life like a breath of fresh air. Yes. That's how I describe Sujini. While Ki ha is the steady rock in Damdeuk's life, she became the hurricane that took him by surprise.

Upon knowing the real identity of Damdeuk, it did not stop her from doing those stupid and sometimes childlike stuff with and in front of him. Much to Damdeuk's amusement! Rather than being intimidated by his presence, she took no notice of it and treated him like an ordinary person.

Damdeuk at first treated her like a kid sister and would watch in sidelines as she gets herself in trouble expecting him to bail her out but instead he would either scold or watch her wriggle out of trouble.

What they did not know is that in moments like these that the seeds of love that was planted from the time of King Hwanoong and Sae Oh is slowly starting to blossom.

When Sujini learned that Damdeuk be possibly the awaited King of JooShin, she was there by his side as a friend and trusted ally even though Damdeuk would sometimes dismiss her as a mere nuisance. But she did not back out. She stood her ground and never faltered in her belief that Damdeuk is the real King of Jooshin even though Damdeuk himself thought otherwise.

As Damdeuk was about to face death in the Temple of the Priestess, she was there to oppose anyone and was ready to to fight if anyone dares to harm Damdeuk.

She fought and stood by him. While Ki Ha wanted Damdeuk to give up, she on the other hand encouraged him to stand up and fight. I dare say that with Ki Ha, I saw Damdeuk as a weakling. He was hiding under her care and what he thought was their love for each other.

Sujini has Damdeuk's best interests on top of her lists all the time. Everything she did, it's always for the sake of Damdeuk and what he was fighting for even though more often than not it puts her life in danger.

Damdeuk on the other hand was starting to look at Sujini on a different light even though he was trying so hard to suppress it. The fact that he wants her *GLUED* to him is enough manifestation of how much he cares for her. He wants Sujini by his side always. She has a soothing effect on him...the calm amidst the storm in Damdeuk's life.

When he gave her the bottle (originally from his mother) it certainly speaks of how deep their relationship has become. Must I point out that in all the years he spent with Ki Ha, it never crossed his mind to give her such a special memento like that bottle?

* You never know what you got till it's gone.
       Upon learning that she might possibly become the Black Phoenix and would put Damdeuk's in danger, she decided to leave him even if it meant giving up her chance of loving Damdeuk. I believe that it was during these parts that both of them started to acknowledge the fact there really is something special between them.

        I was really crying when she showed up in front of Damdeuk wearing that dress and looking so cute and silly in it. It was so hard for her to say goodbye to him without really saying it and at the same time wanting him to remember as a woman who loves him and not just a friend or an ally. Boy...did she have a hard time conveying all of those emotions to him.

* Damdeuk's feelings started to unfold when he learned that Sujini has gone and no one knows where she is. I dare say that he probably felt like a part of him was torn away with the departure of Sujini. He went mad and would stop at nothing just to find her.

*Absence makes love grow fonder.
 
          Let me start by saying that even though he shared most of his life with Ki Ha, what he thought was love for her faded so easily. But this was not the case with SUjini.

           In the years that they were apart from each other, never did their love for each other wavered.

On Damdeuk's part, he never lost hope that one day (soon) when everything is settled he'd be able to find and be with her again. Her face, her smile and her funny antics gave him comfort in a battle scarred world he was living in. Even when she was far away, she's still the source of his strength and the hopes of finding her again gave him the courage to continuehis battle with Ho Gae and the rest.

I so love the part in the series wherein they were at the same place at the same time and Damdeuk felt her presence. Indeed she was just around. So near yet so far...It was so hard for her to watch him from afar.

When Cheuro finally found her, she told him that he must always ne by Damdeuk's side. Obviously still haunted by the idea of the Black Phoenix not knowing that she will never become the Black Phoenix for a whole lot of reasons!

So the time came when Damdeuk finally found her. This is the very first time that the words *i love you* need not to be spoken. It was in their eyes...the love and longing for each other. *From now on..where you are is where my palace is...*  arrgghhh...If that's not enough declaration of love then I don't know what that is!

And even though he was about to go into a battle...you can see in Damdeuk's eyes the peace and serenity that only Sujini can give.

So there...that's my take on Sujini-Damdeuk-Ki Ha relationship.


--------> Even thought the ending was not what I expected (due to Bae YOng Joon's injury), I would like to believe that Damdeuk and Sujini lived a happy life together. Well...I hope that part two of this series will push through.
-------------------------------------------

i am praying that someday our most precious KING will find the Sujini of his life. :x

  Hi jeunn, so nice that you were able to watch his last drama, TWSSG. It is a very well-written drama and soundtracked. So, it’s a keeper. I don't really dig "period" dramas but it was a pleasant watch mainly because of BYJ. Not flawless but a wonderful drama nonetheless.  ]

I stumble upon this video while searching for wuri Yong Joon's video's.  I didn't know that he has a good voice. Another qualities that I love about him

[loujaie]

Hello!  I know that it would be perfect for BYJ to have a role or act as President. As far as I have watched his dramas and movie, he had not yet portrayed the role as President, it would be awesome for him to do so. Then LJA would be his presidential guard or a member of NIS wherein has a special assignment to act as one of the presidential guard due to the information they got/received that there will be an assassination plot of the president. Then later love will blossoms but encounters so many hardships or obstacles and so on and so forth.

HOW ABOUT THAT . . . .

jeunn said:

Hello there Dam-su, thank you for your warm welcome. Yeah, I don't really mind if his looks had change ( doesn't anyone want to be better ) for as long as he's the same old ( not literally =)) ) person . Watching TWSSG really left a mark deep down inside of me even if I had watched some of his other past series/movies. I guess it's because he was playing a much different role this time and we got to see the other masculine side of him <:-P

 

I have far too much to see and read about this thread since it has so many pages lol. Anyhow, do you know if he still smokes ? I sincerely hope he did quit. If not oh well I'll take him for what he is

  =))

tekate said: Hey Dam-su :-h. Thank a lot for sharing this. I always believe that Damdeok and Sujini will be united in their next incarnation. And yes..., let's keep praying for our man to find his Sujini soon :x

[Translation] follow trail of BYJ’s Kyoto trip!

original source: innolife

much thanks for sharing.

tomato: omitted first part and posting only kyoto trip.


On next day (21 October), I was escorted by Yonsama fan and visited Kyoto where Bae Yong Joon enjoyed last year’s visit. Followed Yonsama’s trail.
FIrst visited Nonomiya Jinja at Sagano, a shrine famous for god of marriage.



From Arashiyama station go over the Togetsukyo bridge, and go through the bamboo grove and you will reach Nonomiya Jinja.
Took some shots of scenery where Bae Yong Joon himself took the camera shots.



on 21th October (third Sunday), there was a festival called Saigu Gyoretsu.



Moved on to Karasuma Oike, and visited Honke Owariya, a soba restaurant where BYJ had visited.



same menu as what Bae Yong Joon had, “Soba-sushi” and “Horai-soba.” Soba-sushi with wasabi(radish) was great with the soup. enjoy various tastes with 5 dishes of soba with variety of yakumi(spices).
happiest moment!!





5 minutes walk to west from Kyoto Imperial Palace, you will find “Sawai Soy Sause Honten” established in 1879.



go into the shop and there is a big barrel, and you’ll find BYJ’s photo on the wall.



Bae Yong Joon visited the shop on 9th October at around 2pm. Bae Yong Joon purchased 10 bottles of “2year aged soy sauce” in 900ml. Director of Sawai Soy Sauce gave soy sauce rusks to Bae Yong Joon upon leaving the shop. Since Bae Yong Joon’s Kyoto visit in 2011, his family (BYJ fans) have continuously visited this “old capital,” Kyoto.

anyway, i've read a not so good news regarding one of the managers of KE. gee... i hope this scandal will not have an effect to the agency's reputation and business. :-S

class="entry-title"Manager for Key East Entertainment arrested for sexual assault

just wanna share this beautiful MV made by shinara. much thanks. >- emo mode. =((

[jeunn]

Dam-Su said:   hey jeunn. :-h yeah, his role in TWSSG was very much different from his previous roles. most of his previous roles are more of a "lover" roles. in TWSSG, he played the role of a "KING" which is something new. maybe that's why many were so hooked to Damdeok. :\">

anyway, i don't know if he still smokes. i guess he still does especially when he's stressed out. but i hope he only does it occasionally.
