Thanks to the popularity of the Hallyu wave, the contents production industry has seen a sharp increase in sales and exports this year.

On September 22nd, the Ministry of Culture and the Korea Creative Content Agency (KOCCA) released an overview for the second half of 2011 and found that the total sales made by the entire contents industry amounted to around $27.5 billion USD, a 15.6% (or around $4 billion USD) increase compared to last year’s record.

Broadcasting saw an especially sharp increase due to the popularity of dramas like ‘Daemul‘, ‘Giant‘, and ‘Secret Garden‘. Many popular Hallyu dramas were exported, adding to the total sales. The first half of 2011 saw a 379.3% increase in sales.

International sales for SBS Content Hubs came out on top, totaling around $38.2 million USD.

Next year, Kwon Sang Woo will appear as a model for the famous fashion magazine in Singapore, Bazaar Homme. Bazaar Homme magazine is targeted towards the 20-30 year old age group. With their audience in mind, they picked Kwon Sang Woo instead of inexperienced, young idols.

Kwon Sang Woo’s company said, “Since this will be the first issue, we had a lot to prepare so we got started earlier. We also adjusted the photoshoot with the schedule Sang Woo had in Singapore.”

Due to the magazine's popularity, Kwon Sang Woo’s popular dramas and movies were introduced and promoted more in Singapore.

Kwon Sang Woo was supposed to return to Korea on September 20 but his leg injury got worsened, forcing him to get another surgery on September 19. He was hospitalized and is being treated with physical therapy.

This Coming Fall, Three Movie Stars Will Melt Women's Hearts   

by: yoonahbae  on Sep 28, 2011       

This coming fall, three of Korea's hottest movie stars will melt the hearts of women. Kwon Sang Woo will star in "Pain," Gong Yoo will star in "The Crucible," and So Ji Sub will star in "Only You."

f36dd809059215a6fcf14325f2d47f60_large.jpg

Kwon Sang Woo will act as Nam Soon, who  leads a tough life fighting, but his genuine heart is unmatched. His  rugged facial features and manner of speech gives people a wariness, but  he opens his heart to Dong Hyun, played by Jung Leo Won, due to her  heartwarming words. His childlike innocence and the way in which he  treats Dong Hyun will touch the heart of the audience. 

He was highly praised, "Because of Kwon Sang Woo's  exceptional acting, Kwang Kyung Tek will surely become known for 'Pain'  than any other of his works."

Gong Yoo's acting in "Finding Kim Jong  Woo" and MBC drama's "1st Shop of Coffee Prince" is a contrast to his  upcoming film "The Crucible." Previously seen playing gentle, romantic  characters, Gong Yoo plays a character from a poor lower middle class: a  newly-appointed teacher In Ho at a special school for the deaf. Gong  Yoo uses sign language in many scenes, encouraging the audience to  understand In Ho through his eyes and expressions. 

The film is based on Gong Ji Young's best-selling novel: a  true story about an art teacher fighting against the principal and  fellow teachers who were abusing deaf students.

So Ji Sub was famed for playing a  romanticist in the KBS drama "I'm Sorry, I Love You," He's coming back  this October for the movie "Only You." So Ji Sup will play Chul Min, one  who devotes his life for Jung Hwa (Han Hyo Joo) who is slowly losing  her eyesight. 

Chul Min was a previous K-1 fighter and challenges himself  to train newbies. So Ji Sub shows his tough side in this role. On the  26th, the movie tickets for "Only You" were sold out in 7 seconds on the  Busan International Film Festival ticket website.

Kwon Sang-Woo and Jackie Chan together in one movie titled, 12 Chinese Zodiac Heads. It has been finalized and they have already started shooting for this movie.

Jackie Chan is a Hong Kong actor. He is a very well known actor in the Chinese Entertainment Industry and Hollywood. He became famous because of his amazing martial arts techniques. He has appeared in over 100 films. He has received stars on the Hong Kong Avenue of the Stars and the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Jackie Chan doesn’t usually use stunt men or doubles. He does his own stunts no matter how dangerous it may be. He gives it all for his movies, risking life and death for the sake of it. He is 57, yet he still manages to create great and amazing movies.

Kwon Sang-Woo is a famous Korean actor. He started his career as a model in the late 1990′s and soon after began his acting career. Initially, he was acting in minor roles before landing a major role in “Volcano High”(2001). As time goes by, his acting career has been getting stronger. As a result, he is receiving a lot of love and support from the fans. Now, he’s expanding his acting career across Asia. He is starring in movies with Chinese superstars Cecilia Cheung and Jackie Chan. He is also reported to been cast in a Hollywood film which will start filming in Malaysia in 2012.

The filming of 12 Chinese Zodiac Heads has already started in Paris and it’s been said that the movie will be filmed from other parts of the world including Thailand, Dubai, Taiwan, and China. I’m sure fans can’t wait for this movie to finally kick it’s way to the theaters. This movie will be released in 2012.
