BYJ & Moon Sori, made their appearances in 'TWSSG' public for the first time

[star News]9/11/06

The 'TWSSG', whose shooting is in progress beginning with Gosa (Korean traditional well-wishing ceremony) last March, showed to the public BYJ, who is acting as 'The Great King Kwang-gae-to--Damdeok' and Moon Sori playing 'Seo Kiha' for the first time on the 11th.

The appearance of BYJ in the 'TWSSG' was a portion of shooting that progressed in a set in Kyeongki Province. It is the appearance before 'Damdeok', that is the center among many appearances of BYJ, becomes the king.

'The Great King Kwang-gae-to--Damdeok' is the great king having both literary and military accomplishments, and is the respected figure who has accurate sense of reasoning and outstanding sense of righteousness. However, the BYJ's apeparance that was made public for the first time is an appearance of maturing youth 'Damdeok' instead of an appearance of 'The Great King Kwang-gae-to' with majestic atmosphere, and it makes one further more curious about BYJ's dignified appearance of 'The Great King Kwang-gae-to' which will be unveiled in the future.

BYJ also said his sense of expectation by saying, "As much as I came through long period of preparation, I expected a lot for shootings in the future. I think that the early story in which a figure 'Damdeok' is becoming the King in this drama has great significance to the entire drama."

Moon Sori, acting 'Seo Kiha' showing quiet charisma, exhibits cold and intellectual appearance. 'Seo Kiha' is Damdeok's very close friend as well as first love.

On the other hand, the "TWSSG' is pushing forward to overseas distribution aiming at over 90 nations in entire world including Japan in English title of 'Legend'. Along with unveiling of BYJ's appearance at the first shooting in this time, it also made public its main symbol and logo.

The main symbol and logo for the 'TWSSG' placed emphasis on effective expression of fantasy concept of the drama. The major design that consists of entire symbol is making configuration of images of the Four Gods (Blue Dragon, White TIger, Scarlet Peacock, Black Turtle) in the drama by making reference to mural painting in Kogooryeo. Those (Four Gods) express 'east, west, south, north', respectively, and 'world' and the round design surrounding thse is an image of the sun and that symbolizes absolute image of 'The Great King' that unites the world.

BYJ, first transformation to 'youngman 'Damdeok'

[sports Donga]9/11/06 15:46

http://photonews.paran.com/newsphoto/2006/...513291001_0.jpg

The 'TWSSG', much talked about drama in the latter half of this year, unveiled appearances of character transformation by its 2 main actors of BYJ & Moon Sori for the first time.

BYJ, let about half of his long hair down and tied, revealed appearance of a maturing prince rather than dignity of a king as he made up as young man 'Damdeok' before he became the Great King Kwang-gae-to.as he let about half of his long hair down and tied them.

Following is the same as reported in the article in Star News

배용준은 “오랜 준비기간 준비한만큼 앞으로의 촬영이 기대된다. 이 작품에서 ‘담덕’이란 인물이 왕이 되어가는 초반 스토리는 작품 전체에 주는 의미가 크다고 생각한다”고 전하며 변신 소감을 전했다.

영화배우 문소리 또한 스크린이 아닌 첫 브라운관 도전에서 조용한 카리스마를 뿜어내는 '서기하'로 변신해 색다른 모습을 선보였다. '담덕'의 첫 사랑이자 절친한 친구인 '서기하'는 차갑고 이지적인 인물로 그녀의 차분한 이미지를 극대화시켰다.

BYJ, having entered shooting in full scale, is known to have totally devoted to advance preparation for the work doing both exercise and martial arts, etc. from long time ago.

There is aftertalk that thanks to that (advance preparation), BYJ is exhibiting completely concentrated appearance into 'Damdeok',internally and in outer appearance, despite that they are in early stage of shooting. His appearance of gradually having King's majestic air as the number of shooting repeats, plans amplify expectation from fans as well as production crew of course.

The 'TWSSG'

"This is 'Tae Wang Sa Shin Gi (Legend)'", Bae Yong Joon and Moon Sori revealed in costume

2006-09-11 19

Bae Yong Joon of 'Tae Wang Sa Shin Gi (Legend)' finally revealed himself.

TSG Company that is producing 'Tae Wang Sa Shin Gi (Legend)' (Directed by Kim Jong Hak, Script by Song Ji Na) revealed photos of the main character Bae Yong Joon as Dahm Deok and his first love Seo Gi Ha played by Moon So Ri on the 11th.

The photo released that day is the figure of Dahm Deok before he becomes a king. Bae yong Joon displayed a calm yet charismatic appearance wearing armor with fantastical patterns, while Moon So Ri displayed grace and beauty in a traditional costume, rather different from her features in movies.

Along with the main characters, TSG released the drama logo and title, slowly revealing the drama that is now filming.

With 30 billion won (approximately $30 million) invested in the drama along with 13 billion won (approximately $13 million) in building the set, 'Tae Wang Sa Shin Gi (Legend)' has gathered attention in regards to its plot and scale. With a spectacular global line of personnel involved from the main cast to the writer, producer, and director, along with the music director Hisaishi Jo, the production has gathered attention as it is not lacking to be labeled a 'dream team.'

'Tae Wang Sa Shin Gi (Legend)' began filming in March after the Gosa (traditional ceremony). The main character Bae Yong Joon playing Dahm Deok began filming the special effect scenes in August and started filming on set on Jeju Island earlier this month.

Bae Yong Joon had begun preparing for the role by a special diet and exercise, while also training in horseback riding, archery, and traditional military arts in preparation for the action scenes.

Bae Yong Joon has only been in contact with his agency for necessary calls focusing entirely on the drama itself.

Meanwhile, the 'Tae Wang Sa Shin Gi (Legend)' logo and English title 'Legend' holds the ambitious plan of targeting the series to 90 countries worldwide.

Photos of the first scenes of Bae Yong Joon on set were presented along with the main symbol and logo as the drama is aiming for distribution in all 90 countries including Japan.

'Tae Wang Sa Shin Gi (Legend)' which stars Bae Yong Joon and Moon So Ri, along with a cast that includes Choi Min Soo, Jeong Jin Yeong, Park Sang Won, Yoon Tae Yeong, Lee Da Hee, and others will be aired early next year.
