11 AAPI Acting Contenders for Emmy Consideration

 

We shouldn’t only celebrate AAPI representation in May, as the artistic contributions of our global talents have produced some of the best television and film productions in the last decade. However, as we come to the close of the annual celebration, it’s worth noting the multiple AAPI acting contenders that are in the running for Primetime Emmy nominations.

Network: Apple TV+
Season: One
Character: Koh Hansu

 

Category: lead actor in a drama series

 

The episode that proves it: “Chapter Two”

 

Helmed by acclaimed directors Kogonada (“After Yang”) and Justin Chon (“Blue Bayou”) and created by Soo Hugh (“The Killing”), who adapts the popular book series by Min Jin Lee, it’s hard to find a more charismatic and swooning turn than South Korean star Lee Min-ho’s in Apple TV+’s drama. Alongside an all-star Korean cast that includes Academy Award winner Yuh-jung Youn (“Minari”), the passionate fans for the period piece will ensure TV Academy voters won’t, at minimum, know of the series’ mere existence.

 

It should be noted that we are allowed more than one non-English Asian show

and don’t have to shortchange ourselves.

June 1, 2022 admin

 

 

The hallyu wave has turned korean drama actors into global sensations. Today, their fan base doesn’t only include Koreans but Indians as well apart from natives of other countries. The pandemic years amplified the love for Korean dramas as almost the entire world stayed home-bound. The swelling follower count of these actors on Instagram is a proof. Generally, these actors either share pictures from their sets, of their shows or some pensive ones. But what we noticed is some of them don’t care for captions. We anyway have a wild imagination and they just give wings to that.

 

So today, we will talk about a few of the Kdrama actors that we have noticed who don’t feel obliged to put a caption. We tried to add that to their pictures… don’t hurt us! Lee Min-ho’s Guide To Click Selfies: 5 Ways To Look Hot Without Trying (View Pics)

 

Lee Min-ho

The era of movies and web series started in India where people prefer to watch a movie or web show not by the name of the actor but by the plot. Whether it's South Indian films or Hollywood, people now only value films with good content. At the same time, South Korean drama is very popular in India these days. Among the youth, there is a fascination with romantic and comedy Korean dramas. Following the success of Parasite and Squid Game, the dominance of Korean shows in India has increased significantly.

 

Not only does the magic of a Korean drama happen to Indian women, Korean actors also drive women crazy. In this article, we will tell you about the popular South Korean actor Lee Min Ho. He has been compared to the Bollywood Badshah Shah Rukh Khan. Not only ordinary women, but also Bollywood actresses follow Lee Min Ho on social media. Let's find out about Lee Min Ho.

 

Who is Lee Min Ho

 

 

Lee Min Ho is a popular actor from South Korea. His fans are not only in Korea, but all over the world. Born June 22, 1987 in Seoul, South Korea. Along with the actor, he is also a singer, creative, model and businessman.

 

First South Korean actor to own a wax statue

Lee Min Ho is the most popular actor in South Korea. He is the first South Korean actor to have a huge following on social media. In addition, he has a wax figure in Madame Tussauds. The first wax statue was built at the Shanghai Museum in 2013 and then in 2014 in Hong Kong.

 

Lee Min Ho wanted to be a footballer, not an actor

 

 

Lee Min Ho wanted to be a soccer player as a child. But it was written in his destiny to become an actor. In fact, Lee Min Ho got injured when he was in the 5th grade, after which his dream of becoming a football player collapsed. After that, he began his acting career. To do this, he graduated from the Faculty of Film and Art of Konkuk University. (Best Korean Drama)

 

World class recognition

 

Lee Min Ho is known for his amazing acting and good looks. But recognition at the world level came thanks to the drama "Flowers Over Berries". In this series, released in 2009, his character Go Jun Pyo was liked all over the world. After that, he appeared in the films Personal Taste, Descendants, Legend of the Blue Sea, The King: Eternal Monarch. His web series Pachinko was recently released...

@syntyche you posted the above previously.  Is this really from  original AppleTVPlus itself or some fan's Instagram using that same name.  Apple uses AppleTV + so I was wondering. BTW, where is the IG link that you got this from?

Someone else found the pants that LMH wore, but I can't find it.

I rewatched the DMZ epilogue.  I knew something was unusual about it and now I know why.  It's the first time that I've seen a Korean woman in uniform.  I wonder what she said.

[Friday Flashback] City Hunter

 

by DaebakGrits
June 3, 2022

 

 

Released: 2011

Genre: Thriller, Revenge, Romance

 

Synopsis: After his father is murdered by a group of government officials to cover up their unsanctioned operation in North Korea, Lee Yoon-sung (Lee Min-ho) is raised by his father’s best friend and trained to be a killer. Now an adult with an impressive (illegally obtained) pedigree, he returns to Seoul to systematically bring down the five men responsible for his father’s death. Along the way he encounters Kim Nana (Park Min-young), a newly appointed secret service agent at the Blue House. Will Yoon-sung be able to follow through with his plans, or will Nana — and their flirtatious banter — distract him from his mission?

 

Spoiler

 

 

Why You Should (Or Shouldn’t) Watch City Hunter:

 

I’m just going to get this out of the way right now: this is — hands down — my favorite Lee Min-ho drama. I think it is largely due to the fact that this role is so vastly different from his others. Yeah, he’s still a little too perfect to be true (with a face like that, it’s hard not to be, am I right?) but his character in City Hunter is less polished and more dynamic than his other roles. Instead of playing the careless rich playboy, his character uses that persona as a cover for his real identity: a kickass warrior — with a soft spot for the weak and helpless — bent on avenging his father’s murder. It adds a whole new element to his character’s personality that’s immensely appealing.

 

The heroine of City Hunter is just as interesting. At first, she appears to be another Candy type, working an endless list of part-time jobs to save for her comatose father’s medical bills, but not long after we meet her, she gets a job as a secret service agent at the Blue House. How badass is that? I’m a sucker for a leading lady who can kick butt, and the scenes where she spars against Yoon-sung as part of their inter-departmental feud are a fun extension of their bickering and a flex of her skills — even if Yoon-sung lets her win to maintain his non-threatening playboy cover story.

 

 

Although there is a romantic side-plot between Yoon-sung and Nana, the core story focuses on Yoon-sung’s revenge against the five men who ordered his father (and his fellow soldiers) to be executed after completing an unsanctioned assassination mission in North Korea. The lone surviving soldier, Lee Jin-pyo (Kim Sang-joong), kidnapped baby Yoon-sung and raised him to possess all the skills necessary to hunt and kill the men responsible.

 

Despite the harsh conditions of upbringing, though, Yoon-sung never developed the heart of a killer to go along with his martial arts and shooting skills. So instead of murdering the five men — and quickly putting them out of their misery — Yoon-sung goes against his adoptive father’s wishes and plans to systematically expose their corruption and ruin their public images one-by-one. Buuuut… well, let’s just say his attempts to take the moral high ground with his vengeance don’t go according to plan.

 

And that’s part of this drama’s appeal. Our protagonists and antagonists are more gray than your typical “good guys” and “bad guys,” and the complexity of these characters leads to some unpredictable — and often emotional — situations.

 

Our hero is a vigilante out for revenge, but his heart is pure and his motives are misguided. And the man whose betrayal hit Jin-pyo the hardest, is not the evil and corrupt politician that you want to see crash and burn. As far as revenge plots go, this one is tightly-written, multi-faceted, and presented in a way that is interesting to the audience.

 

Spoiler

 

 

 

So, does City Hunter stand the test of time? Well, I’m biased — I love a thriller with a side of romance — but I think it holds up extremely well. To be fair, it’s also the most recent Friday Flashback I’ve covered so far. So I feel obliged to acknowledge that it’s still relatively new enough to have benefited from more modern cinematography styles and avoided the clichés of the early 2000s that are both a bit distracting and cringeworthy many years later. Even so, I would say City Hunter has aged better than some of its more recent genre counterparts (and if this sounds like I’m throwing a little shade at the recently concluded revenge drama Again My Life, it’s because I am.)

 

It’s also worth mentioning the great fighting and action choreography, which is not only fun to watch, but will stick with you years later. I’m looking at you spoon scene. (If you know, you know.)
