Jang Hyuk : oh where have you been??

[alexandral]

There is no "Bad Guy" today (boooo!) so I had some time for extra surfing and one thought came to my mind; "Oh! What is Jang Hyuk doing?". He was amazing in "Chuno" but disappeared from the the scene straight after the end of the drama, to take part in a Chinese re-make of an old hit, "All about Eve". I found some promo pictures of this, although there are not many about and "All about Eve" is not even listed in Jang Hyuk's Drama Wiki page (I wonder why).

Anyways, the pictures amused me greatly. I like the look of the drama, but even more , I am so amused that Jang Hyuk's character looks like an absolute opposite of Dae Gil. Good bye scruffy sharp-tongued rogue, hello well-groomed sweetie! He has even curled his hair!









PS: Where can i find this drama????????? I want it!!!!!!!!!

Also, in totally unconnected, I WANT this too: Lee Byun Hyun's new film, "I saw the Devil". I have no idea what this is about, but I like the title and I love the picture below, it reminds me of "Bittersweet Life":

No, it's not the same, but they're similar. I *think* TW-dramas look more low-budget than C-dramas, but heh, I'm not much of an expert. They do share some similarities though like the over-the-top situations the characters usually find themselves into.

IDK. I tend to read more blogs or comms about kdramas and yeah, there's not much talking about this drama there, but maybe there's much hype in the C-fandom?

Oh that's so cool! I'm always giddy when I see an Asian movie on tv here. I was posively hyper when TPTB aired Bittersweet life and Oldboy and I could even switch the language to Korean (I love our subscription to some digital channels. *g*)

I think there are some good C-drama wuxias but I haven;t awatched any yet.

Me too!
We have a good movie theatre in vicinity here, in Bradford museum of media. They show Asian and European movies. But Oldboy was positively mainstream, it was shown in many other theatres too.
