It’s a metrosexual box office weekend
by | March 22, 2008 | 18 Comments

The movie Sook-myeong (“Destiny,” or “Fate”) opened this weekend, and with two of Hallyu’s prettiest pretty-boys headlining — Kwon Sang Woo and Song Seung Heon, that is — it’s well on its way to claiming the weekend box office.

The movie (also starring Ji Sung and Kim In Kwon) easily took the top slot in advance ticket sales; (distant) second place will likely fall to the American dance cheesefest Step Up 2.

The plot is said to center around the “misunderstandings, betrayal, and sorrow” between the four main characters and friends. But with such a density of heartthrobs onscreen, I’m sure the theatergoers are really going for the plot.

    wow, the movie just came out? I thought it came out months ago. I’d see it only because KSW stars in it. I heard he’s a badass in this movie. Good for him. As for Step Up 2, I still liked the first one.

    can i just say that i’m pissed that “step up 2″ would get 2nd place in any country’s box office. scrap that , i’m actually pissed that step up 2 was even made. though this is from the same hollywood that thought dirty dancing 2, baby geniuses 2, speed 2, and road house 2 were all good ideas. to their credit at least road house 2 went straight to cable…i think. *scratches head* why do i even know that road house 2 exists??

    anyway, sorry for that tirade and the tangent. can’t wait to see Destiny, plus i love ji sung.

    I am not too much into KSW and SSH but it’s Ji-Sung who gets my attention more. JS is playing second fiddle here? Hope not………..anyway, hope Destiny has staying and ascending power at the box office’s.

    Bye!
