Official poster and release date for Late Autumn
by | October 23, 2010 | 61 Comments

Listen, it’ll be a miracle if I say anything coherent in this post, because WHY SO PRETTY?

I’m a fan of the scruffy look on any guy, but on Hyun Bin, it pretty much takes the cake. And the frosting on top.

The official poster and release date have been announced for 60s classic remake Late Autumn, and it premieres…you guessed it…late autumn! The film has made the rounds in the international festival circuit, and will be released nationwide in Korea on November 25.

Late Autumn (also called Manchu) made its Korean debut at the Pusan International Film Festival, where advance tickets sold out in FIVE SECONDS. Needless to say, it broke a new record for fastest sellout of a screening. Yeesh. You’d think people were buying tickets to sit in a darkened room with Hyun Bin himself.

The film stars Tang Wei as a woman who is on leave from prison for three days, after killing her husband seven years ago. She meets Hyun Bin in Seattle and well, falls in love. Sigh. Wouldn’t we all?

Late Autumn is a remake of the 1960 lost film Manchu, and is directed by Kim Tae-yong. Hyun Bin is currently shooting fantasy-action drama Secret Garden opposite Ha Ji-won, which premieres November 13.

    Wow! In the second pic, Hyun Bin reminds me of James Dean

    • 2.1 Revy

      Yes he does. I think it’s because he is scruffy

  3. tari

  4. Ley

    HYUN BIN AND THAT STARE. /dead

  5. cille

    Y-U-M-M-Y! that solo pic of hyun bin has “come-hither” written all over it!

    i heart anything hyun bin and this “You’d think people were buying tickets to sit in a darkened room with Hyun Bin himself.” (although it made me lol) makes sense to a fan. (~_^)

    • 5.1 ditto

      i agreeee :)

  6. Fasiris Fay

    I LIKE SCRUFFY STUFF TOO :D hehehe

  7. snow

    scruffy sexy! hyun bin looks much better like this. not quite taking to his secret garden look, but here he looks yummy. rawr!

  8. Ashley

    I feel the same way! I was not happy when I sat those Secret Garden stills and he’d cut his hair and was all clean shaven. He looks much better a little rough around the edges.

  9. Sumee

    Well Hyun Bin has been my eternal love since Snow Queen well the drama sucked big time but he was a treat to watch non d less !

    Just woke up…and waking up to scruffy Hyun Bin does NOT suck. Yum. I can’t wait to see this movie.

    Thanks GF!

    • 10.1 paula253

  11. 11 Alixana

    Tang Wei! Omg, am I the only one excited about her? She was fucking awesome in Lust, Caution! Amazing acting debut, she blew my mind. :D DDDDDDDD I love her

    • 11.1 Alixana

      Well, technically, it was her big screen debut. Sry

    • 11.2 jjoongie

      I love her, too! She was amazingggg in ‘Lust, Caution’ and adorable in ‘Crossing Hennessy,’ so I can’t wait for this film!!! :D DD

  12. 12 vere

    He’s like the trimmer/handsomer Korean version of Leonardo Dicaprio here.

  13. 13 hookedonmonix

    I heart hyun bin. he is schmexy.

  14. 14 v

    lol… yes, binnie is extra hot here…
    but i thought tang wei was really pretty as well, despite looking like mess.
    and honestly, i didn’t think much of this remake but now, i’m looking forward to this movie.

  15. 15 sora

    She meets Hyun Bin in Seattle and well, falls in love. Sigh. Wouldn’t we all?

      Fremont/Ballard ‘hoods.

      good to have another k-drama addict here soon ^^

  16. 16 Nars

    On leave from prison? I didn’t know that was possible lol.

    • 16.1 favegirl13

      on parole

  17. 17 müge

    as I’m only interested in korean world, I don’t know the actress. I hope I’ll be able to watch the film soon…

  18. 18 Amber

    Hyun Bin is fineeeeeeee looking.

  19. 19 Kender

    Hyun Bin should only ever be scruffy. I don’t like him nearly as much when he’s clean-shaven and spiffy. :x

    The story doesn’t really appeal, but I might look into it later, if only for scruffy Binnie. :3

  20. 20 Sere

    Wouldn’t we all?

    Do you even have to ask? I get it, rhetorical question and all, but still ;)

    After all this time, the 5seconds sellout still amazes me. I always try to picture the faces of all the actors and crew when they were told about that. :)

  21. 21 birdscout

    I am KICKING myself for not watching this at the TIFF back in September when I had the chance!!! Arghh :(

    I read this first from the RSS feed which doesn’t show who wrote it, and thought javabeans wrote it because of the “scruffy” comment, but I see girlfriday likes the scruffy look, too. I agree!

  22. 22 kamee

    gorgeously beautiful man. :D (LUUURRRVVEEE!)

  23. 23 Ning

    Falling in love in three days… is it possible?

  24. 24 Beng

    oh wow, it will shown in time when i’m in korea. i want to watch it, i hope it has subs. But who cares, i can just look at Hyun Bin =)

    • 24.1 paula253

      It’s in English! (yes, Binnie speaks english). you don’t need subs, you lucky girl (i presume girl kkk).

      • 24.1.1 paula253

        sorry, I see rainny already made this point and wonders how good his english is. Um, i really don’t care. ^^

  25. 25 sora

    I can’t stop looking at the poster. Hyun bin is seriously sexy.

  26. 26 deannadsc

    Missed my Binnie so much!!

    Don’t know if I should thank the dramagods for a movie & then a drama co-starring Ha Ji Won, or not…..Cuz we all know he’s going for enlistment right after this series!!! :-(

  27. 27 rainny

    i heard the entire movie was done in English. I couldn’t help but to wonder how good is Hyun Bin in speaking English? He spoke a little English in Snow Queen. I was hardly could understand him.

  28. 28 Selli

    I wouldn’t! D: Nope, not with Hyun Bin. But generalising just never really works @_@~ Somehow, this movie sounds really sad… D:

  29. 29 dannaluk

    i hope it gets a US release

  30. 30 Sonam

    I am more in love with Tang Wei than Hyun Bin. There’s something so elegant about her.

  31. 31 tupai

    Late Autumn… Choi Jin-sang!!! (watching too much Hyena these days).

    Hyun Bin looks extremely ravishing! and he’s smirking at me.

  32. 32 Anonymous

    Ahh.. I am the odd one out.. lol with the scruffy look
    but guess what? I changed my mind after watching the second pic of him ><

    "You’d think people were buying tickets to sit in a darkened room with Hyun Bin himself. " – LOL

  33. 33 kopi_adik

    can we just kidnap Hyun Bin and hide him somewhere, anywhere in the world where those pesky Mandatory Military Service people wouldn’t find him?! gaaaaaahhh!!

  34. 34 theasianstalker

    Moon Jae Shin’s scruffy looks completely beats this guy!!!! >:D

  35. 35 jojo

    I usually like Hyun Bin smooth…but wouldn’t mind a little whisker burn from him…

  36. 36 ais

    He is one fine man! no wonder the premiere tickets got swiped that easy. hope to see it in theaters in november :)

  37. 37 lessaofpern

    Sounds like this will will be a great movie. :D

  38. 38 obivia

    Oh yes. Just. Yes.

  39. 39 Molly

    Wow! Is this movie in Korean then? Is Tang Wei speaking Korean in the movie?

  40. 40 Kgrl

    OMG, gotta see this film. Binnie and Tang Wei (haven’t seen her in forever!)?? It’s going to be awesome. I’m way more excited about this than Secret Garden. lols, lack of faith, what can I do?

  41. 41 Rizzy

    Hope this gets shown here in Manila :(

  42. 42 honeybee

    Well. I like Hyun Bin. But from this poster, I actually think he tries too hard to look “cool.” The feel of the character does not transpire through the poster (although I have to admit that he is hot). Well. It’s typical problem of Korean actors/actresses because they appear too much in CF and photo shooting projects. They tend to bring cfs personality into their drama/film projects.

    On the contrary, Tang Wei is totally immersed in her character. She is an excellent actress. And I was so impressed with her performance in “Lust Caution.” Apparently, her enforced “exile” from China makes her exude even more mature aura.

    I cannot wait to see her new project!

  43. 43 asianromance

    scruffy Hyun Bin! *swoon*

  44. 44 hermosa5790

    Tang Wei..she’s hella gorgeous! one of the Chinese finest actress in her generations..she was brilliant in Lust, Caution..

  45. 45 Francesca

    I heart Hyun Bin and his scruffy looks all the way!

  46. 46 lovin it

    hyunbin <3 HOTTIE.

  47. 47 Dara

    Are you kidding me? five seconds? They were probably sold online then. You can’t possibly pick a seat in five secs.

    Since we are on Hyun Bin, I don’t know why I have the feeling Secret Garden will be more successful than Marry Stayed Out All Night. It’s weird, may be it’s because of my dear girly fashionista JGS.

    Not that I don’t love him, I told you it’s weird!

  48. 48 Hello

    so pretty :)

  49. 49 M

    I really hope that some good soul will sub this and put it on the internet or I will have no choice but to cry great tears of sadness.

  50. 50 shin mi rae

    That second pic of Binnie is so hot.. If he looks at me like that, then this is what I will be saying “Sir, should I take off my blouse first or my pants…”
