What do you think of a remake of What Happened in Bali? I hope our Jisub-ssi will make a special appearance in the drama.

 

Ha Ji Won And Jo In Sung’s Drama “What Happened In Bali” To Be Remade After 14 Years

 

 

Classic SBS drama “What Happened In Bali” is getting remade after 14 years!

 

On December 28, a source from the industry reported that the drama will be returning with a 2018 version. It was further reported that the remake will be directed by PD Choi Moon Suk, the same producing director who had worked on the original.

 

In response to these reports, a source from production company A STORY stated, “We’re working on improving the script, but we haven’t decided on a remake yet.” Another source from the company, however, issued a conflicting statement, saying, “We will be doing a remake of ‘What Happened In Bali,’ and it will be directed by the producing director of the original version.”

 

“The remake scheduled for next year is our company’s first production. No other details have been finalized yet,” the source added.

 

“What Happened In Bali” is a melodrama about love and betrayal that aired back in 2004 starring Ha Ji Won, Jo In Sung, So Ji Sub, and Park Ye Jin. Would you like to see a remake of this drama?

Top Stars That Started Their Careers As Music Show MCs

 

There is one experience that top stars such as Gong Yoo, Park Bo Gum, Jun Ji Hyun, and Song Hye Kyo all have in common. They have all been music show MCs!

 

Since most music shows are broadcasted live, it is important for the MC to be articulate and ready for improvisation. These traits just might be the reason so many celebrities rise to stardom after being music show MCs.

 

Here is a list of actors and actresses who have been music program MCs in the past:

 

So Ji Sub

 

Actor So Ji Sub had been one of the four major MCs of MBC’s “Music Core” back in the day, when the program used to be called “Music Camp.” So Ji Sub’s career took a positive turn after his career as a music show MC, starring in hit productions such as “What Happened in Bali” and “I’m Sorry I Love You.”

*** I was able to buy a DVD copy of his last drama, "Battleship Island" - The highlight of the whole film was the fantastic, though totally fictional, escape of the Korean prisoners by climbing up and crossing via a long metal scaffold to land on a waiting ship to safety. I’m kind of confused about the plot, though – I find that the film attempted to squeeze in a lot of subplots, which made it seem too complicated. I know the movie is emotional and all but there were so many unnecessary long scenes. But, the movie is good.

Plastic Surgeons Claim These 21 Idols’ Faces Are Mathematically PERFECT

 

 

According to specialists, the human face can be geometrically mapped, and the aesthetic measurement of ones face is directly correlated with the famous ‘golden ratio’ or ‘Fibonacci’s sequence’ (1.618).

Plastic surgeons also take this into account when performing operations. Specialists have mapped out idols’ faces and found that the facial structure of these 21 idols especially matches the golden ratio, and that’s why they’re perceived as being so beautiful.

Famous western examples of this include Angelina Jolie and Tom Cruise.

 

Plastic surgeons in Korea compiled a list of idols’ best facial ratios, and here are 21 Korean celebrities with perfect facial ratios:

Really really I miss him..... I want to see him in a series.... ahhhh... When is the reléase of his new movie?... I want to watch battleship Island.....

Hi kiefer-taiho,  the film is called “I’m on My Way to Meet You” (working title) with Son Ye Jin. The film is expected to be released sometime this year, no exact date yet. You can watch "Battleship Island" with English subtitles in high quality with fast streaming for free on KissDrama. It is always fastest uploading. Here's the link : http://kissdrama.club/battleship-island .  

You may also try Viki (fast subbing teams) or dramafever / crunchyroll / Drama Cool. I bought my DVD copy of this movie from YesAsia. There has been a lot of hype surrounding this war film due to its star-studded cast. Upon its release, the film already impressively sold over 6 million tickets in Korea alone. The most memorable part of the plot is the father-daughter relationship between Lee Kang Ok and So Hee as he seeks to protect her. Despite this affectionate father-daughter storyline, the overall feel and tone of the movie was hard to watch at times. The brutalities of the Korean people were definitely present in the film. I'm interested in this movie because SJS was in it.  When I discovered that he’d be playing a gangster in the movie, I thought all along it was similar to most of the roles that he’s played in the past. But, it was a different one.  The film is mostly rooted in truth. Here, the camera is certainly mobile with plenty of aerial shots especially towards the end.
