Yoo Ji-tae takes on a psychopathic villain for his next role, starring as the kidnapper-killer in the upcoming thriller film Late Night FM, which has cast Su Ae as the female lead. In it, she plays a perfectionist DJ of a nighttime live radio program who receives a call from the kidnapper of her relatives.
Yoo Ji-tae is the villian who has taken her family hostage, and orders her to continue with the program according to his demands; if she doesn’t, he threatens to kill them all. The film will begin shooting at the end of January.
The plot doesn’t sound all that novel — it sounds pretty garden-variety crime thriller to me — but I do like both Yoo Ji-tae and Su Ae, who are very solid actors. He’s has a lot of good-guy roles under his belt in recent years (A Star’s Lover, Hello Schoolgirl, Ditto, Hwang Jini), but then again, there’s Oldboy. I’d love to see his innocent face portraying a psycho.

yesssssssssssssssssss. the return of my favorite oldboy!!!
He was really good in Oldboy – even though he was a bad guy he was a likeable character. Can’t wait to see this movie!
I immediately thought of Yoo Ji-tae when I saw the word psycho since he was so convincing in Oldboy. But then again, I also really really loved him in Hello Schoolgirl. I think I just love him in general. Looking forward to this one…
OH MY GOSH!
A VILLIAN PSYCHO KILLER IS — YOO JI-TAE?!! Oh yeah — LOVE IT!
I rarely watched Yoo Ji-Tae in a drama “A Star’s Lover” but I still didn’t finish watch it yet, lolz. So I am still working on it, yupz! Oooh, I had watched him in the movie of
“DITTO” — but it was very good and interesting.
OH BOY! I can’t wait to see this incoming new movie “Late Night FM” — Su Ae and Yoon Ji-Tae!!!
OOoo!
yayyy, i had Yoo Ji-tae baner on top of a Yo Ji-tae’s article..
love him to bits in that movie with Kim Ha-neul but this one, I might give it a miss..
oh my god i miss him .. Good luck Oppa
“but then again, there’s Oldboy”
you got that right… YJT is always be remembered as the psycho from Oldboy for me, and it’s good to see him as psycho again…
having seen yoo ji tae in ‘old boy’ before ‘star’s lover’ really spoiled that drama for me. thought he was brilliant in his film role as lee woo-jin, but lacked appeal in ‘star’s lover’. but that’s just me. i think he fits perfectly in the darker roles.
and there were his other films ‘into the mirror’ (also starring kim myeong-min), “libera me” (cha seung won!) and even ‘attack the gas station!’. so, yes … i’m a yoo ji-tae fan! ♥ looking forward to his new psycho drama!
oh, and 생일 축하 합니다 to kim gun mo and lee seung gi!!
He was amazing as the psico on ‘Oldboy’ movie!
Can’t wait to see him acting again!
Awww! My YJT! One more thing to look forward to! Thanks JB!
The man is prefect!! Love him.
@11: Yup, yup. He is got to be one of the most handsome men on the planet.

The fact that he plays a psycho killer makes him even hotter
Sue Ae and Yoo Ji-tae! Wow…Another k-movie to look forward to.
Yup plot sounds generic but the casting is good.
Me too, I’m a fan of both, even though the story doesn’t sound much, I can’t wait to see them both in this kind of movie. I think it will be the first for Soo Ae.
