oceanluv Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 ^yep! he looks awesome and younger than his age...more article from http://ph.omg.yahoo.com/news/kang-dong-won-is-a-bad-man-for-033300397.html class="headline" style="margin: 0px 0px 10px; padding: 0px; font-size: 24px; line-height: 1.21em; font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);" class="headline" style="margin: 0px 0px 10px; padding: 0px; font-size: 24px; line-height: 1.21em; font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"Kang Dong Won is a bad man for ‘HIGH CUT’Actor Kang Dong Wan recently did a photo shoot for fashion magazine ‘HIGH CUT’, where he displayed his cold gaze and bad man style.Kang Dong Won showed off his handsome appearance while filming the shoot in Tokyo. In the accompanying interview, Kang talked about his upcoming movie ‘Kundo: Age of the Rampant’, his collaboration with actor Ha Jung Woo, and his thoughts on making a comeback.‘Kundo’ which is directed by Yoon Jong Bin, talks about a group of thieves who robs the rich to give to the poor, during the era of King Cheoljong of Joseon. Kang Dong Won plays the role of Joo Yoon who is the son of a wealthy nobleman, but isn’t recognized for his talents because his mother is a concubine. Filming is currently into its final stages, and this will mark Kang Dong Won’s first full-length movie comeback since his discharge from the military.Kang Dong Won said, “I was really lacking while filming the movie. I was able to portray up to 80% of my emotions if I did preparation prior to filming. But after coming back to the set, I was only able to bring out 50% during rehearsals. To find back this feeling, I have to use more time.”As for his role as Joo Yoon, he said, “As of this moment, it’s one of the most difficult roles that I have encountered. But it is really interesting. It’s a role which doesn’t give a damn about others, and only care about whether he is having a good life. He doesn’t treat people with respect, and always acts as a bully to others. He is all in all a bad man.”Kang Dong Won was said to have done all the action scenes by himself without a stunt double, as he had prior experience through period movies like ‘Duelist’ and ‘Jeon Woo Chi’ where he wielded swords and stuff. He said, “It wasn’t 99%, but I personally did 90% of the action scenes myself.” His only weapon is a long sword to which he explained, “I also used a long sword in ‘Duelist’. I guess it’s because I am not that tall, so the sword must be long. But it can’t be longer than my hands.”He also reserved great praise for his co-star Ha Jung Woo, whom he described as being full of energy, and was very active on the set. Ha Jung Woo not only acts well, but also recently took to becoming a director for the first time through his movie ‘Fasten Your Seatbelt’. Kang Dong Won said, “I felt that Ha Jung Woo was a very capable man when I saw him becoming a director. I am envious and respect him a lot. There are some people around me who have suggested me to give it a go as well, but it isn’t the right time now. I feel like I am still lacking, and it would be too tiring.”By: Park Jin YongCopyright@KpopFighting.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest AnJilaah Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Love his casual wear in the photos! and thanks for the news! I guess I have new photos to save <3I saw this on the news, Kang Dong Won's name got mention in a song by an idol group called "BESTie". The song is called Love Option and it basically tells the perspective of females on their "ideal type" or how they want the guy be. But wouldn't it be hard to find a guy like him? kkkChorus:"A person who’s slightly tall, who slightly resembles Kang Dong Won and understands a girl’s heartWho has a lot of money, who doesn’t throw big eventsBut gives me 100 roses, a diamond necklace and ring" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"I have less stage presence now. I could use 80 percent of what I rehearsed before, but I don't even have 50 percent now. It took me a while before I could become confident again."On his character in the movie, he said, "He was the hardest I've ever portrayed, but by far the most fun. He's the type to make villains suffer when he himself lives comfortably. He harms humans and he's an evil guy."He has done his own action scenes for his previous projects, and for this movie, "I did around 90% of the action scenes."Kang Dong Won's photos will be featured in the magazine's 112th issue.------------------------------more clipsFB ScreenX ----------------------------scanned pics from High Cut vol.112from Baidu/ credit to cafe.daum.net/dongwon81 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fizzykyle Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Hi @strawberry555, welcome to this thread . Other than his father is the VP of the SPP Shipping company, there's not much info revealed by the media about his family. He rarely mentioned about them, maybe he just want to keep them away from the public attention. And yeah, he looks a little bit of the young Andy Lau especially with his intense eyes.Kang Dong Won High Cut vol.112 credit: sorarisu9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vaninavanini Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Have you guys heard about Kang Dong Won accepted a role in a movie called " Good Friends/ Goodfellas"? I'am asking because on Asiawiki website this movie is listed under his name. Here it what it says:"Three men have been friends since their school days. They do some something, believing it would be nice, but that act connects to them a crime and their friendship ends." I have tried to look on the internet but all I could find were some news on korean websites which I tried to translate with Google translate, but it didn't work very well.강동원, '좋은 친구들'로 상업영화 복귀..12월 크랭크인http://t.co/M3nJLbRVfX 이선필 기자 #OMS_ 12월 중 촬영 시작 예정...거친 친구들의 모습과 내면 연기 보인다— 오마이스타 (@Star_ohmynews) October 16, 2013 http://star.ohmynews.com/NWS_Web/OhmyStar/at_pg.aspx?CNTN_CD=A0001916581Anyway if I understood correctly he will play the role of In-Chul , one of the three friends and the filming is scheduled to start in May next year.

Orion Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 @vaninavanini I had no idea about this. How come no English media have covered it? Maybe it's not confirmed? But he is listed in it in Daum, so... Very strange that there wasn't more news of this. Maybe because the director is not very big? Still, it's Kang Dong Won, for crying out loud!
