Gu Hye-sun celebrates birthday in Australia
by javabeans
Gu Hye-sun is currently in Australia filming her new drama Take Care of Us, Captain, and celebrated her 27th birthday on the set. (It was on November 9, and is counted as her 28th by the Korean age system, where an infant is considered 1 year old at birth.)
The crew has been in Australia since the 4th, and on the day of her birthday was shooting at a botanical gardens. Hm, you know what that means: Australian drama fans, get out your maps and start a-stalkin’!
Gu said, “Since we’re shooting overseas, I didn’t think anybody would prepare an event like this. I’m really grateful to the people who wished me happy birthday. Because they looked after me while we’re still in the early stages of shooting and abroad, this birthday will be especially unforgettable.”
In the drama, Gu plays an airline co-pilot paired with leading man Ji Jin-hee, and the pair gets caught in a love triangle with Lee Chun-hee. The drama unfolds around the character growth, careers, and romances of those working at an airport — so think human drama, not occupation show or Air City-esque action — and is set to air on SBS beginning January 4 (it replaces the hot sageuk Tree With Deep Roots, which should make for a strong lead-in).

Happy Birthday, Gu Hye-sun. You look young and so pretty with flawless skin. It was very nice of the crew to throw her a surprise party in spite of the tight schedule. She looked very happy there. Hope filming goes well.
Looking forward to Take Care of Us, Captain!!

Why the insistence to keep her look the same? She is one of the most easily identifiable actresses in Korea. She has
an adorable smile :-) .

What's with her face in the first photograph? Was her character in a traffic accident? That's a nasty bruise.

A birthday for Goo Hye Sun feels like a birthday for me as well! I am grateful to her parents for giving birth to and raising this amazing young lady, and grateful to Goo Hye Sun for being "Goo Hye Sun". From the purple icing on her face, it looks like (as usual) she couldn't wait to get started on that cake... ;)

IS SHE STILL IN SYDNEY?
oh man i feel so delayed, i also missed out on stalking the kpop artists that came here (i assume they've left or are leaving really soon? ;__;) walking around the city/darling harbour doesn't seem to actually work as i'd imagine it would (aka casually bumping into a famous korean celebrity and desperately trying to get a photo without being able to understand or speak korean) sigh - i wish :(

Happy bday to hye-sun! She is the youngest looking 27 year old woman ever! That face, that skin, that smile :) I'm soo excited to see her as a pilot. She mentioned in an interview way back in 09 that she wants to learn how to fly a plane :) good to know she gets to experience it even if in dramas for the meantime.
