Lee Ki-woo up for two movies and army duty

javabeans — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 17:17:34 +0000

Actor Lee Ki-woo (A Star’s Lover) has two movies coming up for release, but he may not get to see them come out before he’s called to fulfill his military service. He’ll enlist in November to begin his five weeks of training and two years of service. The results of his preliminary physical exam deemed him healthy enough to qualify for Level 1 service, meaning active duty.

First, the melodrama Wedding Dress stars Song Yoon-ah as a single mother suffering from cancer and comes from director Kwon Hyun-jin of For Horowitz. Her young daughter is played by child actress Kim Hyang-gi (in pic below), while Lee Ki-woo plays the director of a Taekkyeon dojang. The film has finished shooting.

Lee Ki-woo, Shin Hyun-joon

Actors Shin Hyun-joon (Cain & Abel) and Lee Ki-woo (A Star’s Lover) are teaming up as detectives in a new movie, Family Picture [가족사진].

Although the two characters are described as having diametrically opposing personalities, Odd Couple this ain’t: The plot surrounds the kidnapping and murder of a child, and the ensuing investigation aims for a “realistic portrayal” of our world. Shin’s detective is the warm-hearted and brash one, while Lee Ki-woo’s character is driven by a sense of duty. Jeon No-min (Strongest Chil Woo) plays the father of the child, a taxi driver who becomes a suspect in the murder.

In order to portray their roles realistically, a source from the production company said that both Shin and Lee would be transforming their usually polished images to fit their characters, and are studying Chungcheon province dialect before filming begins early this month.

A Star’s Lover: Episodes 15-17

javabeans — Sun, 22 Mar 2009 01:36:38 +0000

I know it’s super-late, but I said I wouldn’t quit, and I haven’t. As much as this drama frustrates me, there’s something about it that makes me want to stick around to see the ending, even if it is mixed in with so many exasperating plot runarounds that just lead in circles. At the end of the day, this is a drama that you watch to find out plot, even if you may not enjoy the watching thereof. Plus,

Baby Lee Ki-woo

javabeans — Tue, 03 Feb 2009 16:25:59 +0000

I love star baby photos. And now we get a look at the recently released ones for Lee Ki-woo, currently acting as requisite third wheel in romance drama A Star’s Lover.

These photos, uploaded onto the official Star’s Lover homepage message board, show the now-super-tall (190 cm!) actor at the age of three. I think the adult Lee Ki-woo still retains a trace of a baby face that makes him look years younger than his age (he’s a 1981-er), so it’s not hard to see him in his baby pictures.

Just to refresh your memory, here he is all growed up:

A Star’s Lover: Episode 14

javabeans — Fri, 30 Jan 2009 00:27:07 +0000

How does a drama take such a sharp turn? Well, I bet some people can argue that this drama has been growing slower… and s..l..o..w..e..r… for weeks now. But I seem to recall thinking just two or three weeks ago that things were actually getting more interesting. And then… nothing happened. I mean, stuff happened, but nothing really happened, if ya know what I mean.

However, someone commented that Episode 15 is much more interesting than 14, so I’m still going to try to power through. I’m trusting in you, o faceless commenter. It’s a shame to quit so close to the end, right? (Famous last words?)

Mari: “This is hard.”
Chul-soo: “Should we break up?”
