Two movie releases precede Hyun Bin’s military service

With military service looming and his current drama earning him raves, looks like Hyun Bin will be leaving civilian life with a bang. Not only is he constantly in the news for Secret Garden — whether it’s for his sparkly tracksuit fashions, his song on the OST, or the general fan-love for his quirky character — he’s also got two movies coming out in quick succession: Late Autumn and Love Me, Love Me Not.

Both movies are looking at February releases, coming on the heels of his drama role. Filmed in Seattle, Late Autumn co-stars Tang Wei and is a remake of a famed 1966 Lee Man-hee film of the same name, which deals with an intense three-day love affair between a woman inmate who is granted special leave for several days and a man on the run. It was initially aiming for a November release, but obviously that didn’t pan out.

Then there’s Love Me, Love Me Not, a small-scale melodrama that co-stars Im Soo-jung. It’s about a married couple on the cusp of divorce; after five years as spouses, the wife falls for a new man and tells her husband she’s moving out. Hyun Bin’s character, on the other hand, is a man who is extremely considerate of his wife. The film is described as a “hide and seek of the heart” between the couple, and will release on February 24.

Hyun Bin is currently drawing notice for the news that he has applied to serve with the Marines during his two years of service, which will begin in March.

Wow, the marine makes sexy heroic men (The army does know how to make em--YUMMEH) But I mean, an already sexy man going to a place where they know how to mass produce sexy heroic men can only mean one thing for hyun Bin....DAMN he's going to be even more gorgeeeeeeeee. YUMMEH!!!!

I think HYUN BIN is a better actor than George Clooney and Eric Bana combined, hehe ;-)

It is rare for someone to be effective in many genres, be it rom-com, drama or action. We are just seeing the tip of the iceberg, so to speak.

In his time in MS he will both serve his country and himself. We can't wait for an even more mature, more excellent, and more dynamic Hyun Bin...

Fighting!

Honest, I wasn't that big on HB. Don't get me wrong I liked him in MNISS and loved him in Millionaires First Love but kinda lost me in The Snow Queen...or maybe it was so loooong suffering and the lead actress was a bore.

HOWEVER. Secret Garden has brought me back into the camp. I will watch what I have missed simply because he seems to have really honed his skills.

Will miss him yet am impressed with his choice of service...
Marines are always kick ass!!

I love this guy! Great actor who does many different genres and does them well, sings well, and now heading to serve his country in the marines? Loved him in My Lovely Sam Soon, enjoyed him in Millionaire's First Love, liked him a lot in Snow Queen (though I didn't really care too much for that one generally). Sure gonna miss him, but so glad he's going out (temporarily) with a bang. The best to you, Hyun Bin. See ya in 2 years!

Hopefully when he comes back, he can start taking adult man roles, especially those nitty gritty ones. How much fun would that be to divert completely from his clean image.

tells self: Imagine this man is your blind date, whom you're meeting in Everland...

He texted to meet you at the bump cars, and that you should look for the most gorgeous guy there. When you arrived at your rendezvous, you see a man in a brown coat - his back towards you - watching people passing by. He turned around and found you there. He smiles. *scrolls to the picture above*

I wonder if his enlistment IRL was connected to the line in one of the episodes where Oska says something like,

"A lot of people are surprised when they find out that Joo Won served in the army."

Oska's comment always struck me as out of place in that context.

Or, I wonder if that line about him being in the army will somehow be touched upon in the last two episodes of SG.

By the way, it looks like HB may be one of the lucky few who get better looking as they age. I look forward to seeing him with salt and pepper temples, and sexy eye wrinkles to accompany his deepening dimples...

Darn! I've got to get the drool off my keyboard (again!).

I hope Hyun Bin's fans remain faithful during the time he is serving in the military. People do tend to be fickle and fall in love with the next rising actor or the actor's good looks.

I reviewed military exit videos of two Korean actors, Gong Yoo (12/8/2009) and Jae Hee (6/18/2010). Gong Yoo had a mob of people at his exit and security to guard him, but Jae Hee had about 25 or so and walked alone. Both are outstanding actors, but where did the faithful fans go?

So, I hope for Hyun Bin's sake, all those declaring themselves lifelong fans keep their word, wait for two years and continue to support him.

sometimes actors keep thei date of their release secret to have a private moment of exit, i think.

Gruffy Hyun Bin is delicious looking, much better than emaciated looking. Will miss him when he goes off to serve.

Does Hyun Bin look older for his movie role? I have to say that even when he's old, he will still be hot!!! Look how cute he is with that graying hair and those wrinkles!! His smile will still melt hearts when he's older!! God he's so cute.

I applaud his bravery and commitment to join the marines, but at the same time I'm a bit heartbroken by the fact that he's leaving for two years... I'm going to miss you Hyun Bin! :( <3

What the heck is up with HB looking all manly and hard in that picture?! Just when I got used to thinking he was cute even though he was thin and gangly, you see a picture like this?! Dang, he looks kinda...dangerous!

The second Film sounds like its going to be good. The title, threw me off, its the same title of a 1950 movie, with James Cagney and Doris Day, different story.

Any way, I will miss him, I thought he already did the military duty thing. So sad, wonder if his girlfriend will wait for him or will they get married before he leave...
