Gu Hye-seon Debuts as Artist and Music Composer

Actress Gu Hye-seon, who has published a novel and debuted as a filmmaker, is poised now to make a foray into painting and music composing. She will hold an exhibition late next month in Insa-dong to showcase some 40 of her works.

Gu is also preparing a new-age album slated for release late this year. The album contains compositions that she has personally written. She has written 11 compositions so far and is currently recording them. Originally, they were intended for a movie that she has been in preparations to produce.

Last year, Gu drew the covert art for singer Gummy’s fourth album and included more than 40 of her illustrations in her first novel, “Tango,” which was published last month.

On May 17, Gu received the Audience Award at the Busan Asian Short Film festival for a short film that she had directed and for which she wrote the script.

The versatile and talented actress says she has many dreams and wants to try many things.

Teaser Video? IS this really TRUE??

IS this Really TRUE????

Fans are left clueless after videos named ‘Boys Over Flowers Special Edition teaser video’, and some named the video ‘Boys Over Flowers Season 2 sneakpeak’, surfaced on the internet. The video is made by Planet905, which is also the company to Kim Joon on the cast.

The video shows the possible scenario of the F4 5 years later. Some netizens points this to a possible music drama release. Nothing more has been mentioned about it yet. We shall see. But if anything, 28th April is the date to note on the calender for fans.

On 15-Apr, F4 Lee MinHo, Kim HyunJoong, Kim Joon, Kim Bum and others made an official visit to Japan, and received overwhelming support even from Japanese star ChoNanGang (Tsuyoshi Kusanagi).

They recorded for a section off variety program SMAP X SMAP for about 1 hour at Tokyo Fuji TV from 10am onwards.

The section that they attended is hosted by ChoNanGang and is conducted like local variety program ‘MooReupPak DoSa’ of MBC ‘Golden Fishery’, making the guests talk over their anguishes.

Lee MinHo, Kim HyunJoong, Kim Joon, Kim Bum said during the recording on this day that they had worries as to whether the Korean version of ‘Boys Over Flowers’ would be able to be well received in Japan too, ChoNanGang encouraged them “Japanese are also anticipating it. I think it will be very well received.”

F4 members were being praised “very handsome” by ChoNanGang on this day and the recordings went on in a harmonious atmosphere. Especially idol group SS501 member Kim HyunJoong, who already holds popularity in Japan, demonstrated his fluent Japanese during the recording.

Boys Over Flower Cast heads to JAPAN

Boys Before Flowers may be over in Korea, but it’s still got its overseas markets in which to promote itself.

Gu Hye-sun and F4 guys Lee Min-ho, Kim Hyun-joong, Kim Bum, and Kim Joon are headed to Japan; they’ll arrive in Tokyo on April 15 to make a live television appearance, then hold an event to greet the press and meet fans in person.

The official cast fanmeeting will occur on April 16 in Tokyo Dome City at JCB Hall, at which the two kpop groups SS501 and T-Max will be present to give a special live performance of their songs from the drama soundtrack with actor-bandmates Kim Hyun-joong and Kim Joon.

Boys Before Flowers premieres on Japanese television on April 12, on the Korean specialty channel Mnet. Following that Mnet run, TBS will broadcast the drama on national broadcast television beginning in July.

F2 fansigning

The 28th was a busy day for F2 boys Kim Bum and Kim Joon, but particularly so for the former.

Both Boys Before Flowers stars attended a fansigning event that evening (above), but first, Kim Bum appeared at one of his own in the morning as well (below).

At 11:30 am, the fansigning session that took place in Seoul’s Myungdong shopping district drew a crowd of 2,500 fans.

This morning session took place at the store for Spris, the activewear clothing brand that Kim Bum endorses (with Go Ara), which sponsored the event.

Kim explained, “Because I’m filming the last shoot for Boys Before Flowers today, I’m sorry I couldn’t meet many of the fans. Even if it was only a short while, I’m so thankful for your huge support.”

Following the close of Boys Before Flowers in the coming days, Kim Bum moves his attention to the big screen — his war movie “71″ is next, starring Yoo Seung-ho (Legend) and Big Bang’s Seung-ri.

Following that morning’s event, Kim Bum joined his castmate Kim Joon for another fansigning in the evening, this time at Seoul’s Yongsan I’PARKmall at 6pm.

This two-hour-long event tied in to the latest Boys Before Flowers merchandising, a second photo and music book (which contains 76 pages of new stills from the set); also sold on-site were the drama’s newly released OST 2 and OST 2.5 albums. On top of that, articles of clothing worn by the actors in the drama were auctioned off for charity.

Asked what he’ll remember most about BBF when it’s over, Kim Bum answered, “the ones with my partner Ga-eul [Kim So-eun],” to much cheer from fans. (Hey, the boy knows how to do fanservice right.)

Furthermore, preceding the signing session, pop group T-Max, of which Kim Joon is a member, gave a short performance.
