Anyway, kuwento ko lang po na nakita daw ng Daddy ko si JiWoo sa Japan. Siyempre mangiyak-ngiyak na ko sa inggit. Sabi niya di daw niya mapicturan kasi bawal daw:( . Sabi ko dapat sinabi niya, my daughter loves you. Hehehe...Sa hotel daw niya nakita, sa Rigo Royal Hotel (?) at breakfast ata yun or lunch. Sabi pa nga niya, lahat daw ng kinukuha niya, kinukuha din ni Jiwoo like the miso soup. Sabi ko, feeling ka ha. Hehehe...
Sabi ko sa kanya, bawala ng magsinungaling, sabihin niya kung si Jiwoo yun, si Jiwoo nga daw talaga (Jodi pa nga tawag niya eh...)
Sayang, wala siyang pics.

Hi To I'm new in here and i thought it was feel free to post here
pero bkit wlang namamansin oh nag rereply?
Edba Welcome SIS??:)
before i forget pla i just want to share some INFO ABOUT CHOI JI WOO :D
here you go
Family
Ji Woo is the younger of two children, with an elder brother. She lives with her parents Choi WoonYong(52), Yun GilJa(50), and her two years older brother who attends graduate school. She recently gained a sister-in-law with her brother’s marriage.
Birth dream
When Ji-Woo’s mother was pregnant, she dreamt of picking apples from an apple tree and holding them in her dress.
Childhood
Because of her father who served the military, she had to move around often. Since 6th grade, she lived in Pusan.
Debut
MBC 23rd Open Audition (with Ahn JaeWook, Lee MinYoung). Youngest contestant to be selected.
Nickname
Because she gets surprised easily, people call her Bunny
Talent
Modern dance, aerobics, horseback riding ski
Hobby
Window-shopping, watching video, playing DDR
Attraction point
Nose
Least confident point
Huge hip
Favorite food
She likes all kinds of food. She includes meat in her 3 meals everyday. She doesn’t get tired of meat, even if she eats it all year long.
Religion
Protestant-Christian (Seoul,AhpGuJung-Dong Hope Church)
Personality
She is lively, yet careful and honest. She is very shy when she meets new people, so she usually hangs around with people she already knows. She has difficulty in making friends quickly. When she is in an awkward situation among new people, her cheeks turn red like a radish. But once she gets intimate, she’s the type who becomes eternally nice to the other. Her core personality is lively and at times flirtatious. She thinks her appeal is her adorability and or cuteness.
Favorite animals
She is a self-proclaimed pet mania. She got a ShiChi puppy as a birthday present from a friend.
Perfume
She doesn’t prefer strong or provocative scents, but she also doesn’t favor scents that are too calm. She received about 10 perfumes from her friends as presents.
Type of man she wishes to meet
She doesn’t like men who are obsessed with himself and doesn’t treat women right. She likes men who are kind, sensitive, and wise. She likes the character Dicaprio plays in the movie ‘Titanic’.
Marriage
She wishes to enter marriage after a relationship like that of dramas. If she meets a man who is tough yet caring and understanding, she wants to marry him the next day if that’s possible.
Weak point
She has a short breath and tends to speak quickly. Her speech is faster than her thinking sometimes and gets her tongue-tied, making her pronunciation slip. Recently, she is adjusting her pronunciation by playing her voice back through a new audio recorder.
Appeal
She has a facial mask that portrays both metropolitan and traditional image simultaneously. People say she looks good with her hair split in the center.
Preferred fashion
Avoiding extravagant clothing, she likes to wear simple and modern clothing with pants. When not filming, she usually wears jean pants and t-shirts.
Habits
Always visits the powder room before filming.
Figure and skin management
She works out with a hula-hoop and a running machine at home. She doesn’t like playing or watching sports that much.
Her beauty shop
Lee KyungMin hair shop in AhpGuJungDong
Karaoke favorite
She knows most of then popular dance songs. She often sings songs from Cool such as ‘AeSang’ and ‘Misery’. When she feels the need to liven up the mood among veteran actors, she sings old songs such as ‘JaeBiChuRum’. So she knows many trot standards such ‘NamHangYulCha’.
Debut work and Isabelle Adjani Contest
After her debut drama ‘War and Love’, she entered the ‘Isabelle Adjani Contest’, which was open for anyone to try. Because she was already a celebrity, entering the contest was a bit embarrassing. However, she couldn’t help it, because winning the ‘Isabelle Adjani Contest’ meant she could star as one of the character in an upcoming movie called ‘Park BongGhon Runaway Incident’, prepared by ‘Movie World’. Eventually, she was picked as the most Isabelle Adjani look-alike. Although she participated in the ‘Isabelle Adjani Contest’ to receive a role in the movie ‘Park BongGohn Runaway Incident’, calls from several broadcast televisions came as well. Finally, the moment for her spotlight began.
TO BE CONTINUED....

One of the hottest TV dramas currently being shown is "Rondo," which airs every Sunday at 9 p.m. on TBS. The drama marks the first appearance in a Japanese TV series for Choi Ji-woo, the 30-year-old South Korean actress best known for her heroine role in "Winter Sonata." She co-stars with Japanese star Yutaka Takenouchi, 35.
With the big-name match-up, it was inevitable that "Rondon" would gain most of the media attention. It has been announced that the drama will be aired in China, Thailand, Malaysia and four other countries in Asia.
TBS is pulling out all stops to promote the drama as part of its 50th anniversary celebrations this year. The first episode earned a 20% rating and it seems everything is going well ... on the surface.
The reality is very different, says one of the program's crew. "The atmosphere on the set is as bad as it could be," said the staffer. "With Ji-woo, we rarely start on time, so everyone, including Takenouchi, has to wait for her, sometimes for as long as two hours. But she makes sure that she gets her time off while in Japan and is traveling all over the place from hot springs to Disneyland. I think she periodically goes back to South Korea as well. Honestly, I cannot understand her."
There also seem to be problems of miscommunication and cultural differences in the process. Another crewmember points out the disharmony with the South Korean staff.
"Choi brought 10 staff with her from South Korea," said the crewmember. "Basically, the way we work is different from the way they are used to working. TBS is known for its long hours of rehearsals, but such a practice is incomprehensible for them. They once yelled at us not to make Ji-woo do the same things over and over. This is the first time for us to collaborate with production crew from overseas. We hope that we overcome our differences in the end."
While the Japanese hosts gave Choi the best possible treatment, this caused some tension for the staff and other actors. "Choi brought her stylist from Korea, which TBS paid for. She also brought her wardrobe from Korea, so she gets her own fitting room while everyone else shares an assigned stylist and a fitting room provided by the station," grumbled one of the crew.
Since her arrival, TBS has done all it could to welcome the South Korean star. The red carpet was rolled out at the press conference, which is unheard of. Her guarantee is also said to be exceptional. The Korean media report that it is higher than Choi's most highest paid Japanese counterpart, Yukie Nakama.
If TBS is providing such VIP treatment for her, one would think that the station should be able to maintain some order. But things aren뭪 that easy in reality. "When the two sides reached the agreement, the president of TBS, Hiroshi Inoue, was to meet with the actress. He even went to get a haircut for the meeting. But he was let down by Ji-woo's mood swing that day when she canceled the meeting," said a TBS worker.
Another point of contention, said the TBS staffer, is that Choi wanted to be able to cook during her stay in Japan. "So instead of reserving a hotel room, the station rented an apartment for 1 million yen a month. But she has been dining out most of the time. She makes the staff search for a good place to eat. Even when her mother was in town, she dined out."
Though the opening episode earned a good rating of 20%, the second episode went down to 15%.
"We started filming in November, and if things had gone smoothly, we would be done filming six episodes by now," said a crew member. "But we are still filming the 4th episode. We are all tired that things aren't going as planned. On top of that, we are getting pilloried for not earning a high rating and thus not being able to recoup the costs of the drama to the station."

Jang Dong Gun & Choi Ji Woo?
July 13, 2005
It was a hot issue in Korea the other day when the media reported that Jang Dong Gun (of the popular drama All About Eve and the all-time box-office hit Taegukgi) and Choi Ji Woo (Winter Sonata, Stairway to Heaven) got married secretly. It was kinda surprising since they are not currently working together, nor do they have any project in the near future.
Choi Ji Woo went on television denying the rumor, which was also reported by the Japanese media. And Jang Dong Gun issued a statement on his official website regarding the issue.
I am the cousin of Mi-Hyang, I am a fan of Jiwoo also, I always look forward to join this FORUM, I like to talk about my favorite actress, I have just taken this ISSUE from: http://www.buhaykorea.com/?p=118trackback (http://www.buhaykorea.com/?p=118trackback)

Choi Ji Woo is a South Korean actress (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actor) and model (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_%28person%29). Born on June 11 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/June_11), 1975 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1975), in Gyeonggi (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyeonggi) Paju (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paju), South Korea (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_Korea), she made her debut in the 1995 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1995) drama War and Love, and changed her name to Choi Ji Woo. Choi was noted for her role in the drama series First Love (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Love_%28drama%29).
Choi co-starred with actor Bae Yong Jun (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bae_Yong_Jun) in the Korean Drama Series (Winter Sonata) in March 2002 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2002), which in turn helped her to gain fame from the high popularity of that drama, especially in Japan (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japan). She is also called "ジウ姫" (Princess Ji Woo) by her Japanese fans. She is sometimes criticized and made fun of in the media becaused of a noticeable lisp she has due to her short tongue. However, that has not kept her from landing prominent roles in TV dramas and movies, as well as having a large fanbase.
Choi has gained a wide Japanese (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japan) audience watching her romantic comedy movie, Everybody Has Secrets (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Everybody_Has_Secrets), in which she has co-starred with Lee Byung Hun (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lee_Byung_Hun). Beautiful Days (2001), Winter Sonata(2002) and Stairway to Heaven (2003/04) was among the popular Korean dramas in Asian countries and thus boosted her popularity.

Choi Ji-woo Sets her Sights on Hong Kong
With the Japanese mega-hit drama "Rondo" under her belt, Korean star Choi Ji-woo is set to make a foray into Hong Kong.
As the first episode of "Rondo," the special drama created in commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the Tokyo Broadcasting System (TBS), boosted the network's ratings to 20 percent as it took to the air on Sunday, Choi Ji-woo prepared for her visit to Hong Kong to attend the opening ceremony of a new Christian Dior shop at the Festival Walk in Kowloon this Wednesday.
The Hong Kong press speculated that the grand opening ceremonies will be packed with reporters and fans gathering to see Choi, as her popularity soared in Hong Kong after the drama "Stairway to Heaven" was aired in the territory. Choi has been active as an Asian model for Christian Dior cosmetics since March of last year.
This is Choi's first official visit to Hong Kong, which makes it all the more exciting for the press and fans, according to the papers there. A Hong Kong-based newspaper, Mingpao, reported that Choi Ji-woo is to be styled "marvelously" by a special Christian Dior-affiliate beautician using the latest products from the company for her appearance to cut the ribbon. The paper also added a detailed introduction to the shop, which is being touted as "the first beauty concept shop in the world."
The 120 minute-long special first episode of "Rondo" captivated Japanese viewers who applauded that the first episode was so well-made that it "seemed like a movie." In Japan, soap operas whose first episode brings in 20 percent or higher ratings are classified as "mega hit" as opposed to a mere "hit."
The ratings for the premier of the show that kicked-off the Korean Wave in Japan in the first place, "Winter Sonata," were a mere 9 percent of the viewing market, and those of the first episodes of "Stairway to Heaven" and "Beautiful Days" also were incapable of achieving more than 10 percent. When that is considered, the first episode of "Rondo" which raked in 20 percent ratings is a laudable accomplishment. Choi says her hard work is paying off, but "I'm not going to let myself be content with the ratings of the first show. I want to incite a change that is the localization of the Korean Wave in Japan, and I'm going to giving it all I've got till the very end"

Fresh Wave of Choi Ji-woo Fever Grips Japan
One of the leading figures of the Korean Wave in Japan, the actress Choi Ji-woo, is generating renewed frenzy in the island country with her upcoming appearance in a drama specially produced to mark the 50th anniversary of Tokyo Broadcasting System (TBS). It goes on air on Jan. 15. Walls in every neighborhood in Tokyo are plastered with posters featuring Choi side-by-side with the male Japanese lead Yutaka Takenouchi.
Japan's fashion and celebrity magazines have kicked into overdrive with special articles on the drama, many running features on the shooting locations. This is the first time Choi has been involved in a Japanese production, while Takenouchi is making his return to the small screen after a 10-year absence. TBS has embarked on a PR blitz to hype the drama and its own 50th anniversary. Little wonder then that there is a major buzz surrounding the production. TBS will air “Rondo”, as the miniseries is called, in a primetime slot, 9 p.m. on Sunday. It has invested US$12 million in the drama at a cost of more than $1 million per episode, in itself a sensation in Japan.
The Japanese media expects “Rondo” with its combination of top stars and a massive budget to generate a similar phenomenon as the drama “Winter Sonata” that set off the Korean Wave. Experts anticipate that the drama will help stave off a backlash against the popularity of Korean pop culture, which some patriots feel has come at the expense of home-grown entertainment, by combining talent from both countries. Deals with nine Asian countries have been completed, recouping almost all of the stellar production costs. Japanese experts foresee that the DVD and original soundtrack -- which includes a song by Korean singer Lee Seung-chul -- will rake in hundreds of billions of won in profits.

TV Drama "Rondo" Starring Choi Ji-woo Suffers Low Viewer Ratings
http://english.kbs.co.kr/ICSFiles/artimage/2006/02/24/c_ent_nws/do_l.jpg
TV actress and hallyu star Choi Ji-woo has reportedly been distressed over the low viewer ratings of her TV drama "Rondo," currently being aired in Japan. She is still recognized in Japan as a leading South Korean actress and known as the "queen of tears." But the viewer ratings of Rondo have been on the decline, causing consternation among all the people involved in its production.
Rondo was filmed last year by TBS TV of Japan with a budget of 12 billion won. Even before it was filmed, the drama generated quite a buzz and attracted much public attention both in Japan and South Korea. Many people expected it to be a smash hit when its first episode achieved 20 percent viewer ratings.
But despite its initial success, the viewer ratings of Rondo have been on the decline, currently hovering around the ten-percent level. The drama recorded 15.8 percent during the first week of February (Jan. 30-Feb. 5), but dropped to 14.8 percent during the second week of February (Feb. 6-12), and continued its spiral downward.
Some people attribute the lower ratings of Rondo to its storyline. They say that the drama is too complicated and not very engaging to the audience, adding that the plot is very similar to that of the Hong Kong film "Infernal Affairs," which revolves around a criminal gang.
Meanwhile, Japanese fans who still remember Choi as "Jiwoo Hime," the female lead character of the TV drama "Winter Sonata," are criticizing the drama, saying that although it is interesting, Choi's image in the drama is very different from that in "Winter Sonata."

I like the way choi ji woo doing her role in all the tv series i already finish watching. She's really great actress and cute too. I wish that on my coming birthday i can met her personally here and i can be with her. Actually i don't experience to have a meaningful and memorable since before because u know my parents are separated when we are just a kid. I didn't experience lots of happy moments too with other people. I always pray for that every time im going to sleep. I hope that god will make it come true. Choi ji woo u know what u give me encouragement and inspiration in my life every time im watching ur tv series at home. But unfortunately i didn't watch your recent movie yet coz it's not yet shown here. Choi don't worry i will always support u here and take care always.

Tabloid targets skating on thin ice
http://mdn.mainichi-msn.co.jp/waiwai/news/images/20060223p2g00m0dm023000p_size6.jpg
Sunday Mainichi March 5 edition. (Mainichi)
Snaring a large chunk of the inches available in Japan's wild weeklies during the week from Feb. 20 to 24 was South Korean stunner Choi Ji-Woo.
The star of the maudlin "Winter Sonata," which sparked Japan's brief love affair with all things Korean a couple of years ago made a quick trip back to the Land of the Rising Sun to promote her new TV series, which many of the weeklies were pleased to note had been a dismal flop in her homeland.
That didn't stop hacks and snaps in their droves from turning out to cover Choi's brief media conference during her whirlwind trip.
Japan's Turin Olympians came in for a considerable basting, particularly as they had failed to pick up a single medal between them, at least until the weeklies had all gone into print. That didn't stop the huge swathe of cheesecake shots of figure skaters Miko Ando, Shizuka Arakawa and Fumie Suguri. (By Zeli)

Tide Begins to Turn on Korean Wave
http://english.chosun.com/new/img/clear.gif The Korean wave looks to be receding, as Japanese terrestrial TV broadcasters cut the number of Korean dramas in their programming. According to a report on the "Reality and Prospect of Korean Dramas on Japanese TV" published by Korean Broadcasting Institute on Tuesday, the number of Japanese terrestrial broadcasters that have included Korean dramas in their programming stood at 36 as of February, which is almost a 50 percent decrease from the 64 of last February. The report attributes the ebb in popularity with terrestrial broadcasters to the fact that no Korean stars have emerged to fill the shoes of Bae Yong-joon or Choi Ji-woo, combined with the fact that Korean dramas are steadily losing their competitive edge to Chinese and Hong Kong dramas in terms of price. By contrast, the number of Korean dramas aired on Japanese satellite TV channels have increased from 5 last year to 9 on BS and from 45 to 55 on CS. Kim Yung-duk, who conducted the research, said that the reduction in the number of Korean dramas aired on Japanese terrestrial TV channels -- which resulted mainly from the challenge offered up by Chinese dramas -- as well as the weakened price competitiveness of Korean dramas clouds the prospects for Korean dramas in Japan. He stressed that Korea needs to come up with measures to secure channels to air Korean dramas by, for instance, starting a new channel in Japan or investing capital in the Japanese channels.

In a desperate bid to stifle rumors started by "netizens" that they are to marry, South Korean movie stars Jang Dong-gun and Choi Ji-woo have reported the matter to Internet police.
By the end of June, the Web was awash with messages claiming Jang and Choi had already reserved a hotel for their wedding ceremony and had even decided the honeymoon destination.
Some "netizens" also posted messages alleging parents on both sides met each other to discuss the wedding details.
Although the star actor and actress paid no attention to the stories at first, they were moved to break their silence and take action when the rumors continued to spread.
In addition to turning to the police, who have been asked to help identify the origin of the stories, both Jang's and Choi's agents also made public announcements ¡ª maintaining that while the stories are no more than online rumors, they are in effect privacy violations, which severely affect the stars' personal lives.
This is not the first time Choi has been the subject of marriage rumors.
Press reports earlier this year alleged she was set to marry the boss of a film company this July, and more recently a series of well-publicized marriage "scandals" linked Choi with numerous Korean actors. Both Jang and Choi contend their on- and off-screen relationship in recent years has been purely platonic. They last appeared on screen together six years ago, a working relationship which did not produce any love affair.

Napapabalita daw na sila Jang Dong Jun at Choi Jiwoo ay ON na...at napapabalita na malapit na daw silang ikasal....ano!? IKASAL?...kung sya ang papakasalan ni Choi Jiwoo....here are something about him...
Jang Dong-gun
Jang Dong-gun (born March 7 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/March_7), 1972 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1972)) is a South Korean (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_Korea) actor and musician. Spending his childhood in Yongsan-gu (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yongsan-gu), Seoul (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seoul), he later went on to the Hangook School of Arts (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hangook_School_of_Arts&action=edit), dropping out before obtaining a degree. He made his debut in the MBC (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Munhwa_Broadcasting_Corporation) drama Our Heaven.
1994 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1994)'s drama "The Final Jump" was his breakout role. His popularity then grew rapidly, and he starred in other dramas including "Medical Brothers", "Model", and "All About Eve". Jang also pursue a singing career, releasing four albums.
In 1997 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1997_in_film), Jang made his film debut in Repechage (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repechage), winning the Blue Dragon (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Blue_Dragon_Awards&action=edit) Best New Actor award. In 1999 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1999_in_film) he won the Best Supporting Actor Award in the Blue Dragon Awards again for his role as the dedicated cop in Nowhere to Hide (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Nowhere_to_Hide&action=edit). In 2000 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2000_in_film), he starred in the film Friend (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friend), which at the time was the highest grossing Korean film of all time. Jang gained widespread critical acclaim for his portrayal of a troubled high school student who joins the mafia, paving the way for him to star in the 2004 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2004_in_film) Taegukgi: The Brotherhood of War (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taegukgi:_The_Brotherhood_of_War), about the Korean War (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korean_War), which again shattered box office records. His portrayal of one of two brothers drafted into the war earned him a third Blue dragon award.

Pati pala hair styles nina Choi Jiwoo at Zhang Ziyi ay napapabalita ngayon....
"Hair Colouring Splash 2006" brings latest trends"
Tokyo, Mar 17: Hair and street fashion hit the catwalk in the annual "Hair Colouring Splash 2006" event in Tokyo.
Eight Japanese hair colourists and designers from Tokyo's top hair salons presented their latest hair colour styles mixed with the latest of Japanese fashion.
Themes ranged from street chic and glam girl to "erotic-cool", many inspired by western blonde hair and mixed with Japan's Harajuku girl culture made famous by U.S. pop star Gwen Stefani.
Practically all Japanese are born with black hair but in recent years colouring has taken off and recent research shows nearly 80 percent of Japanese women, as young as 15 to as old as 69, have coloured their hair at least once in their lives and seventy percent of those regularly bleached their hair.
"In past years, people whose workplace require formality such as school or bank, rarely had their hair coloured, but in these years those people including public officers have no qualm about bleaching their hair," said Yukihiko Hisada, assistant manager of marketing division at Hoyu co. - event organiser and one of Japan's leading hair colour manufacturers.
Though the most popular colour remains blonde, with brown following closely, black is back as well. Neighbouring countries are providing inspiration, with popular actresses Zhang Ziyi of China and Choi Ji-woo of South Korea often seen showing off their glossy dark hair in TV commercials that emphasise their Asian identity.
However, light-coloured hair remains popular because it is believed to make the face appear brighter and to be easier to coordinate with Western-style fashions.
Admiration for European hair has made even mousy brown tones a more desirable option than black, while younger Japanese of both sexes seek to express individuality with a palette of colours.
While brassy blonde is out, hairdressers say very few fashion-conscious Japanese women are prepared to go completely natural, since many feel poker-straight black hair is unflattering.

Waking
The morning sun
Stares across from the horizon
In awe of her presence.
She stands in a tired robe
Watching the sun rise,
Smoking
To continue the calm.
That orange light of dawn shimmers
Across the million little blades
Blazing green.
In her eyes
Rests joy and admiration
And an epiphany almost grasped.
But, it departs
As the dew dries
On the blades
In the dawning sun.
It is just this woman
And the horizon.

She...
She takes love
She takes attention
She takes time
She takes energy
But she gives happiness
She gives joy
She gives a feeling you never felt
She smiles at you And your life is blessed
If she were to wrap her arms around you... Her hair cascades down her back
As she spits her vulgarities But it's beautiful Simply beautiful.
Everything about her is to be cherished
Every single word
Every single moment
To spend your life with her
Is to spend your life blissful
Fulfilled Dreams awakened.
Her silly gestures
Her unyielded laughter
Passionate in everything she does
Every word Every gesture
Is full of her life.
She breathes fire in every story.
Her eyes gleam and her fists fly
Then she laughs Because who cares?
I just watch her with a smile
I'm enthralled by everything she does.
Everything she does brings me peace
With all her passion and fury
She makes me calm.
She makes me happy.

Everyday...
I cannot live like this anymore, I thought to myself.
Everyday, more and more, it drives me insane. The silence, the restraint.
The movement through the house I can hear, but somehow there are never voices in my direction unless it is my own. How pathetic is that...
I talk to myself in the mirror. I smile at myself there from time to time to make me feel somewhat fulfilled.
I send letters and make calls, looking for something I have not found here.
Something, I fear, I will not find here. I will survive this just like every other failed risk I have taken.
How did things go so wrong, I think sometimes.
Across the miles I hear voices, voices calling me home.
How can I go home? How can I let go and admit defeat once again? I will never go home again.
I do not know where my next home will be. I only know that there has been no home for some time now.
How long has it been? I cannot remember now.
I can feel that entity in the next room, but it has not unnecessarily looked my way for sometime. This is fine. My dislike has always lived for her, but it is rejection that I cannot stomach.
My sickness thrives more everyday. EVERY DAY the mind grows more distant and confused.
Touch, relating... these things have also become nothing, but fond memories. Come alive again for me, I beg.
The will to go on never dies, but the weariness in continuation also grows... continuously.
The dream of falling apart lingers, but will never come into color.
I find myself wondering more and more, how did that become the colors I dreamt of?
I feel it will never happen for me again.
There is a difference between happiness and satisfaction that I suffer everyday. Merely satisfied and thoroughly happy.
I cannot live in this muted world.
How did things go so wrong?
When will those voices be close enough to touch?
Everyday the memories grow more distant and confused and I fear that soon I will not even have those to cling to.

Korea, Uzbekistan seek strategic partnership
sincerely welcome Uzbekistan's President, H.E. Islam Karimov on his fourth visit to Korea. This visit is his first trip to overseas this year and a return visit for President Roh Moo-hyun's visit last May. Uzbekistan's President Karimov considers Korea as a most important trading country, and he is also pro-Korea.
Declaring independence in September 1991, the Republic of Uzbekistan set Korea as its No.1 economic trading partner and has increased investment and technology cooperation. Korea is Uzbekistan's No.1 investment market.
The background to the Uzbek president's love and respect for Korea came from the Goryeo people's sincerity and diligence when they were forced to move to Central Asia (now Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan) from the Maritime Province of Siberia in 1937.
In fact, Uzbeks provided bread and food to the Goryeo people, and the Goryeo people have not forgotten their kindness and friendship for over 70 years.
About 250,000 Goryeo people, about 1 percent of the Uzbek population, live in the Republic of Uzbekistan. Those Goryeo people built the Soviet Union's two representative collective farms (KOLHOZ), and one of them received a heroes medal, which was the highest medal awarded during the Soviet period, and a street is still named after him, Kim Byoung-hwa.
The republic of Uzbekistan is a hub of Central Asia with a delightful four seasons and rich natural resources. It grows a fifth of the world's cotton and has the sixth largest reserves of natural gas. Moreover, in the recent exploration and exploitation of the Aral Sea oil reserves, Uzbekistan chose Korea as its main partner. It also provided development rights for a zinc mine to Korea, and this will be concluded during Karimov's visit to Korea. The Korean wave has also had an impact, with the Uzbeks considering Korea as its top partner in diplomatic and economic cooperation.
For instance, the national TV broadcaster has aired "Winter Sonata" four times and "The Great Janggeum" is currently proving to be a major hit, emptying the streets during the evening.
With a huge Uzbek fan base, the Uzbek Foreign Ministry is requesting the Korean Embassy in the Republic of Uzbekistan to invite for a visit the actor Bae Yong-joon and actress Choi Ji-woo, stars of "Winter Sonata."
The Republic of Uzbekistan has become an arena for diplomatic competition. Of course it is a country that has the geopolitical and strategic importance for rich natural resources like oil.
Now through President Islam Karimov's fourth visit to Korea, I expect both countries will have an upgraded bilateral relationship as strategic partners, and hope that this will give us an opportunity to renew the understanding and interests about the importa
nce of the Republic of Uzbekistan. I give my best wishes to President Karimov and his party for a successful visit to Korea.

The leading star of the Korean Wave (Hallyu) Choi ji woo will appear as a cover model in the Taiwan edition of the world-renowned fashion magazine "Vogue" this May. This is the first time a Korean has been so featured. Choi recently completed a photo session for the cover.
Choi Ji-woo was selected as the face for the Chinese edition of "Cosmopolitan" and the Hong-Kong edition of "Elle", both of which will be released in May and June respectively. It is the second time Choi will appear on the cover of "Cosmopolitan".
Choi once again showed off her celebrity status by appearing as cover model for world-renowned fashion magazines that mostly feature international top models and Hollywood top stars as their cover models
A "Vogue" official said Choi was selected as the cover model because the company recognizes her as the most renowned Hallyu star in Asia. "Vogue" expects to gain greater Asian market share by featuring Choi whose TV drama "Rondo" currently finished televising. Her film "Now and Forever" (Yeonriji) will be released in Japan next month.
The melodrama "Now and Forever" will be released on April 13. Choi will play Han Hye-won, a lovely woman who wants to happily live for the rest of her life in the face of death. Jo Han-seon will play Lee Min-soo, a young CEO of game company who was awoke to a truthful love of life for the first time by getting to know Han Hye-won. Choi, whose representative character has been mostly cheerful and adorable, once again challenges herself in a melodramatic role.
Born on June 11, 1975, in Gyeonggi Paju, Choi Ji-woo made her debut in the 1995 drama War and Love. Choi rose to some fame from the drama series First Love. Choi co-starred with actor Bae Yong-joon in the Korean Drama Series (Winter Sonata) in March 2002, which in turn helped her to gain fame from the high popularity of that drama, especially in Japan which still lasts till today, though in decline as time passes.
Lately, Choi has gained a wide Japanese audience watching her Romantic Comedy movie, Everybody has Secrets, in which she has co-starred with Lee Byeong-heon.

Choi Ji-woo Remains Huge Box-Office Draw in Japan
http://english.chosun.com/media/photo/news/200604/200604050020_00.jpg
The latest film starring Choi Ji-woo, "Now and Forever", is set to open in Korea on April 13 and in Japan two days later ? essentially a simultaneous release since new films open in Korea on Thursdays and in Japan on Saturdays.
In Japan, where it will be distributed by Toshiba Entertainment, the film opens on 280 screens, while domestic distributor Showbox will show it on 300 Korean screens.
The Japanese publication rights for the screenplay were sold for US$3.5 million before the movie was even completed, and a comic book and novel based on the film have also been generating plenty of advance publicity for the movie there.
As the female lead in the TBS soap opera 'Rondo' the actress gained recognition in Japan as well.
The show, whose series came to an end on March 26, saw ratings fall off toward the end, and there were signs of a backlash when a series of articles in the Japanese press painted a less than flattering picture of the actress. Choi was portrayed as a fanatical non-smoker who insisted on declaring the entire set a smoke-free zone, while the star on occasion reportedly kept crew waiting for hours. Choi was also said to be picky about her diet and prone to sulking whenever there was no kimchi around.
TBS felt moved to write to the Sankei Sports newspaper denying the charges. "Since there are many smokers among the crew, a smoking ban was impossible, and there was never a need to wait for Choi Ji-woo because she came to the set completely prepared, even with her makeup done," the broadcaster said. It added Choi never complained about even the most bog-standard food.
When it first aired, "Rondo" got ratings of some 20 percent, but the show's seriousness put some viewers off, and the decision of rivals to schedule competing programs in the same time slot dragged ratings down to an average of 15.9 percent.

Melodrama Princess Back With New Movie
By Kim Tae-jong
Staff Reporter
http://photo.hankooki.com/newsphoto/2006/04/05/ensor200604051722310melo1.jpg
Choi Ji-woo
Celebrity actress Choi Ji-woo is back with her new melodrama movie "Yeonriji, Now and Forever," which will open here on April 13.
Best known for her leading role in the television series "Winter Sonata (Kyoul Yonga)" all over Asia, Choi will play her trademark role of a beautiful yet ill-fated woman in the film.
But she says that the film will show a different side from her previous roles.
"When I first read the script of the film, I felt quite confident about this role and I thought I could do a good job," Choi said Monday during a news conference after the preview screening of "Yeonrijin, Now and Forever" at the Megabox Theater in Samsong-dong, Seoul.
"But there were also many things that I haven't tried before like 'lovey dovey' acting. I think the character I play in this movie is different from those in my previous works," Choi said.
Directed by Kim Seong-jung, the movie is a sad love story between a rich, charming man and beautiful woman with a fatal disease.
Min-su (played by Cho Han-sun) is a playboy, who seems to have everything _ the looks, money and position of CEO at a game company. He indulges in casual relationships with many girls, but he has never been in true love until he meets Hye-won.
Hye-won (by Choi) is sick with a fatal disease and has to spend most of her time at hospital, but she is not discouraged with her misfortune and tries to enjoy her life.
As they are attracted to each other, Min-su gets to learn about love and Hye-won has the best time in her life.
As the story sounds cliche, it received negative reviews from local critics, who claims that the film relies solely on the star power with its shallow and flimsy story. But the movie received positive reviews from Japanese film critics when it was premiered in Japan on Feb. 24, prior to its official release there on April 15.

Cho Han-sun, left, and Choi Ji-woo play a couple in the upcoming melodrama "Yeonriji, Now and Forever." It opens here on April 13, and in Japan on April 15.
But she said that the film was not tailored only for Japanese moviegoers.
"I think audiences in Korea and Japan will like this movie. I didn't intend my acting to appeal only to Japanese moviegoers," Choi said.
However, it seems true that she is now appealing to more fans from outside Korea.
In Japan, where she is affectionately called "Ji-woo Hime" (Hime means princess in Japanese) for her elegant appearance, she is now staring in a television drama titled "Yunmugok." In the series, she plays a Korean woman who runs a Korean restaurant in Japan co-starring with Yutaka Takenouchi, who appeared in Japanese hit film "Between Calmness and Passion."
She is also scheduled to appear in international fashion magazines as a cover model in May and July _ Taiwan's edition of Vogue, Chinese edition of Cosmopolitan and Hong Kong's edition of Elle.

YASHIM MAN MAN SHOW (4/3/2006)
Hallyu Star CHOI JI-WOO cautiously discloses about her boyfriend.....
During April 3 show on SBS-TV, when the MC, Kang HoDong asked CJW if she has a boyfriend, she only gave a peculiar smile and stayed silent ... The MC then asked her again, to raise her right hand if she has a boyfriend, but raise her left hand if she does not.....CJW then raised both of her hands to cover her face
in embarrassment and said "Why are you only harrassing me and asking me such a question? Please ask other guests here as well!" The MC then said "I've studied Psychology as my minor in high school and I think that kind of answer or reaction means she DOES have a boy friend... when other entertainers are asked that kind of question, if they really don't have boy/girl friend, they quickly say "NO!" without any hesitation.... why does JiWoo then have such tough time answering a simple question, why did she hesitate to answer it?" ....and came up with his own conclusion.
And when Jo Han-Sun was talking about when his girlfriend was meeting another male friend at a cafe, he went in and saw them there and after he apologized to the other guy, he grabbed his girlfriend's hand and just walked out of there with her....At that time, CJW said, trying to answer the question of "My boyfriend's charisma that is very appealing" ...."In the situation like that, my boyfriend would go and pre-pay the bill before walking out."
When the MC asked, if was there a real scenario like that, she said at one time on her birthday, she was celebrating with her 15 girl friends, and her boyfriend came in to "check-in" and when everyone asked him to join them, he didn't stay because he didn't want to bother their conversation, but paid the bill and left... she said that she felt his charisma at that time!
CJW, who appeared as a guest on YSMM last year in August, she was asked the same question, she then said that she had a boyfriend.... her management agency then defended by saying that she was talking about her ex-boyfriend at that time... 2006/04/05

!!!!!!NEWSSSS!!!!!
Hallyu star Choi Ji-woo to be feautured in World's Famous magazine "Vogue"
The leading star of the Korean Wave (Hallyu) Choi ji woo will appear as a cover model in the Taiwan edition of the world-renowned fashion magazine "Vogue" this May. This is the first time a Korean has been so featured. Choi recently completed a photo session for the cover.
Choi Ji-woo (http://www.hancinema.net/korean_Choi_Ji-woo.php) was selected as the face for the Chinese edition of "Cosmopolitan" and the Hong-Kong edition of "Elle", both of which will be released in May and June respectively. It is the second time Choi will appear on the cover of "Cosmopolitan".
Choi once again showed off her celebrity (http://www.tsinoy.com/forum/editpost.php?do=editpost&p=399653#) status by appearing as cover model for world-renowned fashion magazines that mostly feature international top models and Hollywood (http://www.tsinoy.com/forum/editpost.php?do=editpost&p=399653#) top stars as their cover models
A "Vogue" official said Choi was selected as the cover model because the company recognizes her as the most renowned Hallyu star in Asia. "Vogue" expects to gain greater Asian market share by featuring Choi whose TV drama "Rondo" currently finished televising. Her film "Now and Forever" (Yeonriji) will be released in Japan next month.
The melodrama "Now and Forever" will be released on April 13. Choi will play Han Hye-won, a lovely woman who wants to happily live for the rest of her life in the face of death. Jo Han-seon (http://www.hancinema.net/korean_Jo_Han-seon.php) will play Lee Min-soo, a young CEO of game company who was awoke to a truthful love of life for the first time by getting to know Han Hye-won. Choi, whose representative character has been mostly cheerful and adorable, once again challenges herself in a melodramatic role.
Born on June 11, 1975, in Gyeonggi Paju, Choi Ji-woo (http://www.hancinema.net/korean_Choi_Ji-woo.php) made her debut in the 1995 drama War and Love. Choi rose to some fame from the drama series First Love. Choi co-starred with actor Bae Yong-joon (http://www.hancinema.net/korean_Bae_Yong-joon.php) in the Korean Drama Series (Winter Sonata (http://www.hancinema.net/korean_drama_Winter_Sonata.php)) in March 2002, which in turn helped her to gain fame from the high popularity of that drama (http://www.tsinoy.com/forum/editpost.php?do=editpost&p=399653#), especially in Japan which still lasts till today, though in decline as time passes.
Lately, Choi has gained a wide Japanese audience watching her Romantic Comedy (http://www.hancinema.net/korean_movie_Romantic_Comedy.php) movie (http://www.tsinoy.com/forum/editpost.php?do=editpost&p=399653#), Everybody has Secrets (http://www.hancinema.net/korean_movie_Everybody_has_Secrets.php), in which she has co-starred with Lee Byeong-heon (http://www.hancinema.net/korean_Lee_Byeong-Heon.php).
RONDO AGAIN!
TV actress and hallyu star Choi Ji-woo (http://www.hancinema.net/korean_Choi_Ji-woo.php) has reportedly been distressed over the low viewer ratings of her TV drama "Rondo", currently being aired in Japan. She is still recognized in Japan as a leading South Korean actress and known as the "queen of tears". But the viewer ratings of Rondo have been on the decline, causing consternation among all the people involved in its production.
Rondo was filmed last year by TBS TV of Japan with a budget of 12 billion won. Even before it was filmed, the drama generated quite a buzz and attracted much public attention both in Japan and South Korea. Many people expected it to be a smash hit when its first episode achieved 20 percent viewer ratings.
But despite its initial success, the viewer ratings of Rondo have been on the decline, currently hovering around the ten-percent level. The drama recorded 15.8 percent during the first week of February (Jan. 30-Feb. 5), but dropped to 14.8 percent during the second week of February (Feb. 6-12), and continued its spiral downward.
Some people attribute the lower ratings of Rondo to its storyline. They say that the drama is too complicated and not very engaging to the audience, adding that the plot is very similar to that of the Hong Kong film "Infernal Affairs", which revolves around a criminal gang.
Meanwhile, Japanese fans who still remember Choi as "Jiwoo Hime", the female lead character of the TV drama "Winter Sonata (http://www.hancinema.net/korean_drama_Winter_Sonata.php)", are criticizing the drama, saying that although it is interesting, Choi's image in the drama is very different from that in "Winter Sonata (http://www.hancinema.net/korean_drama_Winter_Sonata.php)".

Drama "trees of heaven" to air in japan
SBS TV's special drama "Trees in Heaven" will air across Japan starting from April.
SBS said on Mar. 7, "Fuji TV, a terrestrial network in Japan, will air the drama 'Trees in Heaven' during late-night hours on Thursdays starting from Apr. 13". Prior to this, BS Fuji, a satellite channel of Fuji TV, will broadcast the drama every Thursday at 9:00 p.m. starting from Apr. 6.
The version of "Trees in Heaven" that will be aired on Fuji TV and BS Fuji will be an abridged edition dubbed in Japanese. Its original version with Japanese subtitles will air on CS Fuji, a cable channel of Fuji TV, in July.
"Trees in Heaven" stars Lee Wan and Park Sin-hye and is the last of drama director Lee Jang-soo (http://www.hancinema.net/korean_Lee_Jang-soo.php)'s so-called "three-part heaven series", following "Beautiful Days (http://www.hancinema.net/korean_drama_Beautiful_Days.php)" and "Stairway to Heaven (http://www.hancinema.net/korean_drama_Stairway_to_Heaven.php)".
"Beautiful Days (http://www.hancinema.net/korean_drama_Beautiful_Days.php)" and "Stairway to Heaven (http://www.hancinema.net/korean_drama_Stairway_to_Heaven.php)" won high popularity among Japanese fans because they featured hallyu stars such as Lee Byeo-heon and Choi Ji-woo (http://www.hancinema.net/korean_Choi_Ji-woo.php).
To discuss Fuji TV's decision to air "Trees in Heaven", the production team, including Lee Jang-soo (http://www.hancinema.net/korean_Lee_Jang-soo.php), will give a press interview at the MultiTheater inside the head office of Fuji TV in Odaiba, Tokyo on Mar. 8 at 3:00 p.m.

Celebrity actress Choi Ji-woo (http://www.hancinema.net/korean_Choi_Ji-woo.php) is back with her new melodrama movie "Yeonriji, Now and Forever", which will open here on April 13.
Best known for her leading role in the television series "Winter Sonata (http://www.hancinema.net/korean_drama_Winter_Sonata.php) (Kyoul Yonga)" all over Asia, Choi will play her trademark role of a beautiful yet ill-fated woman in the film.
But she says that the film will show a different side from her previous roles.
"When I first read the script of the film, I felt quite confident about this role and I thought I could do a good job", Choi said Monday during a news conference after the preview screening of "Yeonrijin" - "Now and Forever" at the Megabox Theater in Samsong-dong, Seoul.
"But there were also many things that I haven't tried before like `lovey dovey' acting. I think the character I play in this movie is different from those in my previous works", Choi said.
Directed by Kim Seong-jeong, the movie is a Sad Love Story (http://www.hancinema.net/korean_drama_Sad_Love_Story.php) between a rich, charming man and beautiful woman with a fatal disease.
Min-su (played by Jo Han-seon (http://www.hancinema.net/korean_Jo_Han-seon.php)) is a playboy, who seems to have everything _ the looks, money and position of CEO at a game company. He indulges in casual relationships with many girls, but he has never been in true love until he meets Hye-won.
Hye-won (by Choi) is sick with a fatal disease and has to spend most of her time at hospital, but she is not discouraged with her misfortune and tries to enjoy her life.
As they are attracted to each other, Min-su gets to learn about love and Hye-won has the best time in her life.
As the story sounds cliche, it received negative reviews from local critics, who claims that the film relies solely on the star power with its shallow and flimsy story. But the movie received positive reviews from Japanese film critics when it was premiered in Japan on Feb. 24, prior to its official release there on April 15.
But she said that the film was not tailored only for Japanese moviegoers.

Extreme makeovers to keep fans happy
ONE Korean star went from damsel to seductress.
Another transformed from romantic lover to savage beast.
That's Son Ye Jin and Kwon Sang Woo for you, both of whom underwent extreme makeovers on the big screen recently.
Why? To defy stereotyping? Prove their versatility? Or were they just pulling a publicity stunt?
Whatever the case, any 'change of style' is highly valued in Hallyuwood (Korea's Hollywood), according to the April issue of the international edition of Asta TV magazine.
CHANGES
A feature on renowned director Yoon Seok Ho reads: 'The Korean entertainment circle is the place where only the good changers, irregardless of whether they are actors or directors, can survive.'
Given the competitive industry that churns out new faces faster than you can say 'cute', it is crucial that existing hotties continually reinvent themselves to keep up.
This would certainly explain the trend of A-listers taking on dramatically different roles, like Jang Dong Gun.
He transformed from a righteous soldier in Brotherhood to a bitter pirate in Typhoon.
Then there's Lee Young Ae who played a kind-hearted cook in Jewel In The Palace before turning into a cold-hearted murderer in Sympathy For Lady Vengeance.
The latest to transform themselves are Ye Jin and Sang Woo.
Totally shedding her familiar demure damsel image - think Summer Scent and April Snow - Ye Jin, 24, turns into a temptress in angel's clothing in her new movie, The Art Of Seduction.
She manages to bat her eyelashes innocently, yet flirt so outrageously and deliver a heart-stoppingly wet and sexy dance.
'I love this character, so I pushed myself to my limits to be funny. But I must emphasise that I'm not like that in real life,' she told Chosun Ilbo.
Still, the much-hyped transformation piqued audience interest and attracted a smashing 1.8 million admissions when it was shown in Korea last December.
Meanwhile, Sang Woo's metamorphosis from romantic hunk in Stairway To Heaven to brutal, expletive-spewing detective in Running Wild was praised by critics, but met with lukewarm response from fans.
Some film reviewers in Korea were impressed with his 'splendid' portrayal of an aggressive gangster cop - his most macho and beastly character to date.
Others praised the 30-year-old's efforts at doing most of the action scenes himself - which made the numerous bruises he got worthwhile.
Sang Woo himself said: 'I want to get my acting career to a more mature level now that I have turned 30.'
But his largely-female fan base probably prefer him as a hunk, since his new image only attracted a mediocre 800,000 admissions in South Korea.
Perhaps not all changes are good after all?
Running Wild is already showing in cinemas, while The Art Of Seduction opens on Thursday.

Choi Jiwoo related goods are on sale in Japan
http://japanese.chosun.com/site/data/img_dir/2006/04/11/200604110000421insert_1.jpg
"Princess Jiwoo" whirlwind hits Japan again.
While waiting for the opening of Choi Jiwoo's movie Yeonriji in Japan on the 15th, lots of related goods are already on sale in the market. More than 30 kinds of commodities ranging from fashion products such as jeans, T-shirts, and scarves to general merchandise such as stationery articles, clocks, and soap, postcards, household account books, and calendars, etc are enticing her fans.
Parties concerned estimated that the royalty earnings of 600 million won would be collected just from three kinds of commodities such as jeans, the chocolate, and soap. Moreover, it is expected that various project commodities come one after another, will be put on the market in the future, and the royalty earnings increase tremendously, too.
It's said that Choi Jiwoo popularity is growing day by day because of the success in the Japanese drama “Rondo” that was broadcasted in Japan and had just ended recently, and now fans show their eagerness for the goods more than ever.
“Yeonriji” will be released to public viewing on the 13th in Korea, and in Japan on the 15th in over 300 theaters. The major distribution company Toshiba entertainment will be the distributor. And the premiere was held in a Toho system movie theater. The movie already begins to show early signs of success as the tickets for the large-scale preview opened in Tokyo International Forum on the sixth were sold out in five minutes.

Skin problem causes Jiwoo to cancel 'Live broadcasting TV public entertainments' recording.
2006/04/11(Tue) 23:30
http://contents.innolife.net/mobile/img/item/56707_l.jpg
Korean star Choi Jiwoo's busy schedule of promoting movie “Yeonriji” recently had resulted in her skin having rashes and unable to attend a recording of 'Live broadcasting TV public entertainments' program scheduled on the 11th.
'Live broadcasting TV public entertainments' production team added on the 11th, "We will be looking for replacement now because it is tomorrow's (the 12th) broadcasting" while saying, "They were told by Choi Jiwoo side that her skin problem was awful and it's difficult to make an appearance.”
In the program which was scheduled for broadcasting on the 12th, Jiwoo was expected to talk about some interesting moments during the shooting of Yeonriji, the awkward time she had gone through when she made her debut in acting career, no dialogue for her, only repetition of “Have some tea”, and some unidentified time of pronunciation related problems.
Meanwhile, her movie “Yeonriji” is scheduled to be released on the 13th in Korea and 15th in Japan.

'Yeonriji' Depends Heavily on 'Ji-woo Hime'
http://img.hankooki.com/times/kt_space.gif

A scene from “Yeonriji”
Choi Ji-woo is one of the most beloved actresses here and in other Asian countries _ especially in Japan where she is affectionately called ``Ji-woo Hime,'' meaning Princess Ji-woo in Japanese.
But would you be willing to pay 7,000 won and sit in a theater for almost two hours watching a cliche love story just because she stars in it?
You may have to ask yourself this question if you want to check out her new movie ``Yeonriji, Now and Forever.''
Directed by Kim Seong-jung and starring Choi and Cho Han-sun, the movie is a melodrama revolving around a rich, charming man and beautiful woman with a fatal disease.
http://photo.hankooki.com/newsphoto/2006/04/13/ensor200604131650581yon2.jpg
Min-su (played by Cho) is a playboy. With his attractive looks, money and position as a CEO of a game company, he can easily lure women he likes and simply enjoys casual relationships with them.
His life, however, reaches a turning point when Hye-won (Choi) enters the scene.
At first, she is nothing more than one of many women he has met, but as he gets to know her he realizes that he is in love, which he has never experienced before.
Although Hye-won has to spend most of her time at hospital due to a fatal disease, she is always cheerful and not discouraged with her misfortune and tries to enjoy life. (Mysteriously, Hye-won doesn't give any signs that she is dying until their relationship is in full bloom.)
As the story progresses, Min-su learns about the true meaning of love and Hye-won has the best time of her life, thanks to him.
But this seemingly sad story falls short of arousing audiences' sympathy. Their agony and sadness is not well portrayed, rather audiences are forced to sense it merely through their tears, which doesn't work well.
Their ``romantic'' dating is often cheesy and unrealistic given the seriousness of their situation.
The scenes of Min-su renting an entire car theater for Hye-won and confessions of their love for each other with video messages through cell phones would probably fit better in a teen movie. The movie adds some comic elements by incorporating two other couples, which seems to aim to prevent the film from falling into a typical tearjerker, but it simply falls short as most of it has nothing to do with the main story. As the movie uses formulas that we have seen hundreds of times in other melodramas and depends largely on star power, if you're not a huge fan of Choi you may find yourself giggling during serious scenes.

Dior-ific beginning Five-star treat
The first Parfums Christian Dior beauty concept boutique has opened its doors in Hong Kong, writes BOEY PING PING.
CHRISTIAN Dior’s newest addition to the family, Dior Beauty Concept Boutique, has bagged a premium spot at the corner of a long line of competing brands in Festival Walk, a swanky shopping mall in Hong Kong.
“We told them we were going to do something special and unique so they understood that we wanted a premium spot,” says Brice Baudoin, Christian Dior’s Asia Pacific regional director. That something different, is departing from counter culture with “floating” makeup boards, Hollywood-inspired dressing tables and art gallery-style perfume displays.
It took one year of brainstorming among experts in the field and experimenting with different plans and layouts before the world’s first Christian Dior beauty boutique took form. But Dior’s new project didn’t come cheap. Baudoin won’t reveal the exact figure but confides: “It’s triple the price of our most expensive counter.” On the opening day, a noisy lion dance, congratulatory flower bouquets and the presence of Korean actress, Choi Ji Woo ensured the event was an auspicious one.
Hong Kong’s Festival Walk offer – a corner lot with lots of space, 950 sq ft (88.26 sq m) – was too good to pass up. “Unlike the rest of Asia, this is the only place where all the beauty boutiques are on the same floor, not isolated.” According to Baudoin, Festival Walk gave Dior free rein to create its temple of beauty.
The boutique is the brainchild of fashion designer John Galliano and Tyen, Dior's creative director. Baudoin says: “It’s a space where customers can get a makeover or a facial, touch and play with the products.”
http://thestar.com.my/archives/2006/4/13/lifeliving/06dior.jpg Christian Dior’s one-stop beauty parlour.
Dior abandoned the use of clear glass walls, in lieu of reviving its classic “cannage” pattern to set itself apart from competitors. The pattern plays a sort of hide-and-seek, “now you see it, now you don’t” game.
Inside, music from the Dior couture show plays in the background while a video shows fashion runway scenes. Dior’s international merchandising director Alexandra Von Kerssenbrock says it’s all part of the brand’s aim at creating a five-senses experience. Within the store, four distinctive yet integrated zones for makeup, fragrance, skincare and treatments make it a one-stop beauty parlour.
Framed against the wall, Dior’s “ make-up floating board” is the biggest in cosmetic history. But if you aren’t tall enough for the board, you can still reach for the make-up table filled with the season’s hottest items and limited editions.
The backstage scene of Dior’s runway shows is recreated through makeup mirrors framed with crystallised light bulbs. And you can “play” model as the makeup artists “paint” your face while offering tips on the latest trends.
Rows of golden bottles of J’adore – the scent of the month – are poised on glass shelves artistically.
Tucked in a corner away from prying eyes lies the Haute Couture Skincare Zone. Here, beauty therapists scan customers’ skin with a beauty analyser to create personalised prescriptions.
But it is Dior Institut, Dior’s second beauty salon (the first is in Paris), that is the star of the show. All its six facials employ a unique 3D massage based on the placement of muscular fibres and energy circuits claim not only to benefit but re-awakens muscles in the body.
The star-studded price? HK$600-950 (RM300-475) per treatment.
THEY tell me I’m the first Malaysian to experience Hong Kong Dior Institut’s beautifying therapy. Like every good salon should, they politely request that I fill in a questionnaire indicating any allergies, ailments and recent treatments. The therapist thoughtfully notes my concern about dark eye circles and promises to concentrate more on the eye area.
My therapist leaves me in a room that could pass off as a bedroom. Minus the machines, you have the heated bed, a proper dressing table with full amenities – comb, brush, contact lens case (and tweezers even), hairspray, mousse, a silver wastebin and sophisticated chrome sink. Wrapped in warm blankets, towels, slippers and a soft, white robe, I feel like a guest in a five-star hotel.
The therapist goes straight to the source of my pain – the back – kneading and massaging it with lotion and oil. A hot pack is popped under my lower back and I feel the spread of warmth instantly soothe away nagging aches and pains. All makeup is gently removed to prepare my skin for the Capture Sculpt 10 treatment. The exfoliator is almost lovingly applied. My skin feels neither harshness nor irritation. But it is the Dior-exclusive, 3D massage along the décolleté that speedily sends me into a deep sleep. Even the chilliness of the cold mask to contour and refine my features doesn’t wake me up. But another 3D massage, this time on the face rouses me. I grudgingly change, wishing that this five-star treatment could go on forever. I down some Evian water and brush my hair with a silver comb. Ah? this is the life!

INTERWIEW
"Love wants not to be separated, and to show a strong appearance. "
Che Geu who starred in movie "Branch of Rencotowari" (Be opening it to the public) responded to a single interview of the Asahi Shimbun asparagus club to intervals of the preview in Tokyo International Forum on April 6. The mind of the fan of Japan is gripped by the heroine post of South Korea drama "Sonata of winter", and it stands from last year to this year in the front of the South Korea style now of the photograph collection, the DVD sale, the drama concert, and the serial drama first appearance of Japan, etc.It talked for about 30 minutes like the gratitude etc. to eagerness put on the movie and the fan.
Q:It is a love story that moves to tears. The reason to decide appearance?
「I wanted to do for the first time by all means in the movie in the drama though the tale of tragic love was performed. However, it is a position that doesn't stimulate the lachrymal gland but brightly invites the man in a debonaire way at time. Person..various..act..express..appearance..decide.」
Q:The appearance to make the death the near future and to live brightly is
performed.
「I think that a surrounding person cannot consider, and it becomes a self-target if I make the death the near future like Hewon (hero's woman). A strong appearance is shown to separate love in the latter half though it tries to separate from Mins that meets with great pains (lover). 」
Q:It cheerful and is the character to which it has a mind near Che Geu and oneself?
"Surroundings are said so though I did not think so. "
Qhttp://www.trulyjiwoo.com/board/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif(in playEating and drinking are good.
「Basically, it eats a lot, and there are little likes and dislikes. However, I cannot be strong unlike in the movie, and sake be drunk. 」
Q:How is the figure maintained?
「It tries as moving as much as possible. Physical strength is considerably consumed
to acting. 」
Q:Because considerable concentration is necessary, acting that means the serif
while crying :.
「It was difficult as said. It became not confident advanced by taking a picture though it was confident first. Because it was very difficult to keep maintaining feelings of Hewon. The concentration 4?5 usual time was required because it was took in early winter, strong the wind, and in the part where feelings of two people were expressed, there was a limitation at the taking a picture period, too though taking a picture started in summer. 」
Q:About Mr./Ms. Cho Hanson who co-stars.
「It was a partner whom the breath suited very much. Because I was a senior, he might have been difficult as those who acted. It tried so that the scene that did the date repeatedly may become intimate a lot, and early. I think that it was able to become intimate early because there are a lot of taking a picture in the outdoors and the provinces, and were a lot of chances to eat including the staff. It is serious and the sensibility is rich in sincerity () though it is young. In the scene that put feelings, it helped. I thought his look to be deep. 」
Q:Liked scene?
「Scene of date of fishing. After that, the last scene. It performed it while feeling
the pain in the chest of Hefon. 」
Q:What life does Che Geu want to live though the woman who lived to the utmost though it is short
was performed?
「I think that Hewon was a happy woman though it has so thought about neither life nor the life. The life was able to be shut in front of the friend who importantly regarded the person and himself/herself who loved. I think it was happy in the meaning of having died while feeling love. I want to die in the chest of the person who loves if possible, too. 」

Movie 'the ream reason branch' of the cold current of cultural popular my daily Begccnam special journalist Star choi ji woo starring has received the spectator outside. It is quite contrasted with high heat situation in the foreign country such as Japan.
There is not limiting such a situation only to Cho ji woo. A domestic movie and the dramas in stars who did the priming role of the cold current that continues in Asia such as Japan, China, and Taiwan become and the phenomenon that the pulse cannot be danced becomes deep.
Japan..maximum..cold current..star..star..movie..go out..inside and outside the country..extremely..large..concern..vast..announce..baptism..inside..last year..open..look..close..performance..result..prevent..get off.
The cold current stars named narrow like Kim Hiso Ngan San'u etc. recorded starring and the audience rating in the latter half of the level 10% was recorded as the criticism such as only most typical, old-fashioned new school classes and the other, long music videos MBC drama 'a sad love song' submitted.
Such cold current star's domestic performance failure phenomenon is connected this year. Star..brute..Chang..star..typhoon..still..star..power..lose..slack..performance..record..set up..spectator..surge.
It is the same the movie of John Gehyon to stretch oneself in the star in Asia and to receive domestic spectator the outside. 'Dage' of the John Gehyon starring who opened it last month result still following the expectation was recorded, and 'a blue warning' of high Son Hegyo was not able to do and left it receiving even spectator's snow road leaving in Southeast Asia such as Taiwan of popularity.
There are various reasons why the slackness of domestic performance of such a cold current stars was brought. The movie company and a part of drama production companies acted previously and an easy production attitude that started setting up only the star power that the cold current stars had had, receiving the investment, and offering only the viewpoint acted on the movie and the drama perfection by the cause of the domestic performance failure.
The story and the character setting that it has and the performance code of the spectator in Cni aimed only at a foreign market are the failure factors of a domestic performance. The selection to which cold current stars' works are mistaken is role it is the inactive country.
If a slack phenomenon of domestic performance of the cold current stars continues, the adverse effect that is not in and outside the country the proper land as for these stars is caused. The cold current stars must be the bases and be mostly star as for a clear, domestic fan. If a domestic slump continues, the concern of a domestic fan is decreased and marketability comes to be decreased by coming to disappear. Because the movie and the drama that puts up the cold current star of such a case decrease, this influences the foreign country.
When the Dai grade is colored to the Hollywood star, actors who make the performance of the foreign country to say nothing of the country succeed only in his name are included as for special A class. Because it is not possible to do, a performance in the foreign country alone is not good at the star who secures it the star of special A class ..the inclusion... strike the performance by the countryWe cold current stars should also keep the advantage.
Stars who recorded result following expectation in domestic movie and drama in cold current star and my daily photograph ..Gan San'u, Che Geu, Be Yonjun, and John Gehyon.. = photographs DB

NEWCOMER CO-HOST
As part of the programme, Michelle and her co-host, Canadian-Chinese newcomer William Tsang, spoof familiar scenes from popular Korean dramas like Winter Sonata and Stairway To Heaven.
She laughed: 'Ours is the funny version. It wasn't easy for us to learn our lines in Korean, and we used the same lines everywhere.'
And remember the iconic scene in Stairway To Heaven where Kwon Sang Woo and Choi Ji Woo were sitting on the horse carousel?
It's not as romantic as it seems.
Michelle said: 'My butt kept slipping off the (small) horse, and Will and I had to sit really close together. It was rather uncomfortable.'
Although it was the first time she worked with William, Michelle said they had no problems with chemistry because 'we are both angmoh pai (Westernised)'.
Both hosts also visited the filming locations of dramas like Jewel In The Palace and Winter Sonata, where they had to jostle with Bae Yong Jun's Japanese fans.
Michelle recalled: 'We went to the house that his character lived in, and the obasans (Japanese for aunties) just went crazy touching the phone, the cups and the other things he used!'

Second wave of Korean top stars crossing over to Japan http://ad1.logger.co.kr/tracker_ad.tsp?u=5337&mode=I&adCode=3264
Even before the heat of Yomiuri Giants slugger Lee Seung-yeop's bat cooled off, Tokyo Dome hummed with over 40,000 fans waiting for Korean actor Lee Byung-hun, fondly known as "Byonsama" in Japan.
Sporting a gent look in white suit, punctuated by his killer smile, Lee graced the stage for three hours, often joined by guest stars including actress Choi Ji-woo, singers Shin Seung-hoon and Ivy.
Choi co-starred with Lee in television drama "Beautiful Days" (2001) and movie "Everybody Has Secrets" (2004) and is one of the most popular Korean actresses in Japan, earning the nickname "Jiwoohime (Princess Jiwoo)."
Lee is labeled as one of the "Big Four," along with Bae Yong-joon, Jang Dong-gun and Won Bin (or Gwon Sang-woo, it depends), who have been leading the Korean Wave, or hallyu, an Asian-wide obsession with Korean pop culture. Now there is a second wave of Korean stars riding on dramas and movies in Japan and other Asian countries: Chung Woo-sung and Son Ye-jin in "A Moment to Remember," which marked the highest box office record, raking in about 3 billion yen in October; Kang Dong-won and Ha Ji-won in "Duelist," due this summer but already much anticipated thanks to their news conference held last month; and most recently director Bong Joon-ho's monster drama "The Host" that will feature Song Gang-ho and Bae Du-na.
The "Host" was purchased at $4.7 million last year even before the movie was filmed, reflecting the Japanese industry's interest in the director of "Memories of Murder" (2003), as well as actors and the subject: monster (think Godzilla). The blockbuster will be unveiled at the Cannes Film Festival before its premiere in June in Korea.
Off screen, more Korean stars are crossing the Korea Strait. On Saturday, R&B group SG Wannabe held their first concert in Japan, confirming that ballad singers can also appeal to Japanese fans. Leading the crop of singers is BoA, who topped the Oricon Chart eight times. Boy band Tong Vfang Xien Qi put five consecutive singles in the same chart's top 10 and is currently touring Japan, with their sixth single "Begin" to be released June 21.
Shinhwa announced that they will enter Japan with their first single in Japanese "Bokurano Gokoroni Taiyouga Aru (There is a sun in our heart)," which will be released next month. The six-member group started a five-month promotion tour across Asia, including mainland China, Hong Kong, Singapore and Japan while Seven will visit seven cities in Japan.
Seven performed before 24,000 fans gathered at his first solo concert in Japan earlier this month and was awarded best Korean singer at the 2006 MTV Asia Awards in Bangkok. He is expected to grab another two at MTV Japan's Video Music Awards Japan and MTV China-CCTV Mandarin Music Honors, making him a "triple crown" winner, following last year's Rain. Singer/actor Rain was included as one of the 100 most influential people in the world by TIME, adding more steam to the buzzing career of the 23-year-old, who took the stage of Madison Square Garden in New York in February. His second single for Japan "Free Way" is to be released next month. Also scheduled in June is a meeting with his Japanese fans in Budokan in Tokyo

A 10-minute ride on a ferry from Gapyeong to Nami Island on Lake Cheongpyeong transports you to an island that the Digital Age seems to have passed over. An island created with the construction of Cheongpyeong Dam which flooded the surrounding land, Nami Island, about an hour and a half from Seoul, is a slow-paced haven for people seeking solace in the tranquility of nature.
The late Min Byung-do, former governor of Bank of Korea, bought the island in 1965 upon his retirement and started planting trees on the flat, barren island. My last memory of Nami Island traces back to more than 30 years ago when I boarded the ferry for a company picnic. The ferry ride was a thrill - there were no ferries on the Han River back then - and running in the sprawling green grass was a heady experience for a child raised in the city.
Today, the more than 300 species of trees that Min planted have grown tall, turning the island into a lush green playground. There are lodgings, restaurants, event halls and of course, the statue of actor Bae Yong-joon and actress Choi Ji-woo locked in an eternal embrace (the two starred in the pan-Asian hit drama "Winter Sonata" whose many scenes were shot on the island).
Commercialism has made inroads into Nami Island: Upon landing, you will find electric carts to the left that will give you a guided tour of the island for 10,000 won to 50,000 won, depending on the length of the tour. But there is nothing of the aggressive push that you will find in many tourist spots. For example, you will not find anyone standing outside restaurants, ready to pull you in. Even the old train that traverses the island, costing 2,000 won per ride, is often out of service. On the day of my visit, the train was down again.
Despite the added attractions, Nami Island still remains a place to enjoy nature in an idyllic setting. The highlight of the island is the many tree lined paths that all lead to the central square area with its restaurants and shops. The birch tree lined path is better known among the visitors as the path where Bae and Choi rode a bicycle on their date. Then there is the fragrant pine tree path and the spectacular tunnel of tall metasequoia trees.
Large expanses of grass occupy the space between the tree lined paths, ideal for kids to run around, enjoying the wind in their face. Picnic benches are also scattered about the island, making it an ideal place for a family outing. However, visitors are not allowed to bring in burners for cooking.
For a unique dining experience, try the kimchi fried rice served in an old-fashioned metal lunch box at Yeonga. The lunch box also holds an egg, sunny-side-up, and before opening the lid, you are told to wear special rubber coated gloves and vigorously shake the hot lunch box to mix up the contents. If you find the 4,000 won meal a bit plain, you can add roasted seaweed for another 1,000 won.
The island, which bills itself as an island of "magic and fairytale," plays host to a number of festivals throughout the year. Now on through June 30 is "Nambook 006," an international book festival featuring children's books from 66 countries.
Dongchun Circus, the last surviving circus troupe in Korea, is holding regular shows during the festival period. Adding gaiety to the 70-day event is the music and dance from countries around the world with each weekend day designated to a specific country. Today, China will be the highlight while the European Union will be the featured country next weekend.
If the island's simple charms beckon you to stay another day, or if you miss the last ferry out, there is a choice of accommodations, from Nami Island Hotel to bungalows for two people, all located by the waterfront. The island's present operator, Kang Woo-hyon, a well-known book illustrator, seems sympathetic to writers struggling with writer's block. Nami Island runs several writer's cabins facing the lake. The sparsely furnished tiny one-room lodgings are ideal for just about anyone who wants to get away from it all, not just writers.

WOULD you pay $500 to see Rain here?
[/url]
Not the tropical downpour, of course, but the strapping Korean hunk whose sizzling wild dance moves are known to reduce fans to puddles.
Most wouldn't fork out such a big sum for an Asian concert - the highest in recent years is $198 for local songbird Stefanie Sun's January gig - but die-hard Rain fan Stephanie Loh would.
'Yes, if I can get super good seats like the first two rows,' said the executive secretary, 33.
'Some people will say, siao (Hokkien for crazy) ah? But you really have to see him perform live to see what's so captivating about him on stage.
'Every concert is different and to see him in Singapore would be a totally different feeling because it's our home ground.'
The reason we're asking is this: In a press release sent to Taiwanese media, Rain has just announced his intentions to tour 11 Asian countries and hold 35 concerts from December to mark the release of his fourth Korean album.
Singapore is on the list of countries he intends to perform in, as well as our neighbours Malaysia and Indonesia, and the usual suspects Hong Kong, Taiwan and Japan.
But while the news is exhilarating - if it happens, it will be Rain's first concert here and the first time a Korean artiste breaks into the concert circuit here - the reality is not so rosy.
It is common for an artiste to announce he is going to tour in a particular country even before a contract is signed - which seems to be the case here.
The New Paper checked with three major local concert organisers - Unusual Productions, Hype Records and VizPro - but none could confirm plans yet for a Rain concert here. All declined to talk about the feasibility of bringing the K-popster in, but we understand from industry sources that it will be a mean feat.
[url="javascript:window.open("] (javascript:window.open()
The main reason: Rain, 24, is deemed too expensive.
Being the top star he is, he will probably command top billing too.
Ticket prices depend largely on production costs and the artiste fee. And that's not including special requests.
For instance, fellow K-popster BoA's managers asked for a private jet as part the tour package, said one insider.
Rain's upcoming Global Project 1st Concert In The World - Rain Asian Tour, which boasts world class performance, equipment and stage effects - is expected to cost 40 billion won ($64m) to produce and attract over one million fans, reported Yonhap News Agency.
A quick calculation shows that each of the 35 shows would have to seat at least 20,000 to 30,000 people to keep ticket prices low.
Since our biggest venue, Singapore Indoor Stadium, can only accommodate 10,000, the concert promoter will have to carefully juggle production costs and sponsorship, and estimate how much the audience is willing to pay.
ENOUGH FANS?
Whether all the seats can be filled is another challenge.
The Rain Singapore fan club here has just 2,800 members and Rain's last album, It's Raining, shifted only 5,000 copies here.
However, it is believed Rain's drawing power extends far beyond these figures due to his constant media exposure - he was just in New York as one of Time Magazine's list of the 100 most influential people in the world and will release a new Japanese single next month - and his credible efforts in acting.
He is now in Pusan filming his first movie - a cyborg love story by Old Boy director Park Chan Wook - and his new drama serial, A Love To Kill, has just been released here on VCD.
Still, The New Paper decided to play devil's advocate and throw the question to Rain fans: How much would you pay to see your idol perform here?
Now, we understand that the mosh-pit rate for Rain's last concert tour is about US$150 ($235), higher than the $198 top-range ticket to local songbird Stefanie Sun's concert here in January.
The reaction we got was mixed.
Only one die-hard fan, Ms Loh, who has travelled to Bangkok and Hong Kong to see him perform, would fork out $500, while others gave lower figures.
Administrative executive Gina Wong, 30, said that $350 is reasonable.
She has seen five of Rain's concerts overseas and intends to to continue travelling to see him. Each trip costs around $1,000, including a concert ticket, she said.
'SORE-THROAT EXPERIENCE'
'Every show is a new experience, and we've been waiting for a year for him to come already.'
Events manager Tan Wei Wei, 30, who has seen Rain's concert DVD five times, said she would pay a maximum of $200 to see him perform live.
'It will be a sore-throat experience! Watching the DVD alone makes me feel like moving to the rhythm,' she added.
'His dancing is great and the whole stage design and special effects really boosted the ambience. There's also his six-pack abs and his cute, romantic, sexy and masculine persona.'
As for Secondary 2 student Lim Heng Xiang, 14, she said she would save for two weeks to set aside $150 for Rain.
'He dances very well, so I will go (see his concert) no matter what.'
Who's coming, and what albums are out
K-POP's hot, and here's the latest, hottest happenings on the Korean scene.
Whip out your calendars, and remember, you read it here first!
Hue
After dancing up a storm at the recent Thye Hwa Kwan charity show, Hue is set to return in the middle of next month to plug his new CD single.
A mini showcase is being planned, so keep your eyes peeled here for details.
Come September, the rising K-popster will be back to launch his debut Korean album for the first time outside Korea.
Se7en
This hot new hunk is slated to release his third Korean album next month, and his local representative, EMI Singapore, said it is working with Korean counterparts to bring him in for a promotional tour in June or July.
Ryu Si Won
A local video distributor is in talks to bring him down for drama promotions in August, which will mark his third trip to the Lion City.
Princess Hours
Adapted from a comic book series, this contemporary serial about a fictitious Korean crown prince and his teenage wife is coming soon to Channel U.
A spokesman confirmed that it will be aired 'latest by October'.
With its lush palace settings and young, attractive cast, Princess Hours is bound to become the next Jewel In The Palace.
Almost Love
Reuniting screen lovers Kwon Sang Woo and Kim Ha Neul (of My Tutor Friend), this wacky new romantic comedy about a Jackie Chan wannabe who falls for his childhood sweetheart is set to tickle when it opens here on 8 June.
Now & Forever
Statuesque Choi Ji Woo stars opposite the delectable Jo Han Sun in this tearjerker slated for opening on 13 July. He is a flirt who plays the field, until he meets a terminally-ill but surprisingly cheerful beauty.

ONE is hailed as the next Ayumi Hamasaki, another the new Smap, and two more are set to give Hikaru Utada a run for her yen.
http://newpaper.asia1.com.sg/mnt/media/image/launched/2006-05-23/NP_4081150_22_05_2006t.jpg (javascript:window.open() Yuna Ito.
Together, this new generation may just re-ignite the J-pop explosion in Asia.
Rejuvenation is key for this slowly stagnating music scene that last peaked in 1999 when Ayumi and Hikaru stormed up regional pop charts.
Although J-pop continues to appeal to a core group of fans, in Singapore, at least, album sales have undeniably dipped over the years as media and fans alike are swept away by the sudden rise of the Korean wave.
But the sizzling entry of sexy songbird Kumi Koda, 24, has blazed the trail for renewed J-pop interest here.
With her skimpy outfits, ample cleavage and outrageous antics, she has overshadowed Ayumi as the new headline-hogger and trendsetter.
Backed by an aggressive marketing campaign that has plastered her erotic images all over town, Kumi has sold an impressive 9,000 copies of her two albums combined.
Also grabbing eyeballs here is six-member boy band Kat-tun, which is being hailed as the next Smap for its triple chart-topping debut.
http://newpaper.asia1.com.sg/mnt/media/image/launched/2006-05-23/NP_4081152_22_05_2006t.jpg (javascript:window.open() Ayaka.
Its trump card? A killer combination of good looks and multi-talents - singing, dancing, acting and hosting. Despite little promotion, the guys have won enough fans to sell 2,000 copies of their Best Of Kat-tun album.
It remains to be seen if these upcoming artistes' combined J-pop power can be sustained, but industry execs are hopeful.
Sony BMG's Susan Tay said: 'Kumi has created a ripple here and people will notice her because her record label (Warner Music) went all out to promote her.
'There's definitely hype around her, though not as whirlwind-like compared to (the last J-pop wave) a few years ago.'
Added Mr James Kang of Warner Music: 'Thank goodness we've got one big new artiste who has captured the attention of Singapore.
'Actually you only need one big artiste to trigger the J-pop wave, but whether it is a small wave or a tsunami depends on the marketing strategies of record companies.'
Perhaps the answer lies in the highly-anticipated debut of two vocal powerhouses later this year.
You can call them aspiring Hikarus. Both are reportedly being groomed as the 'secret weapon' of their respective record labels.
First, there's husky-voiced Ayaka, 19, who, like Hikaru, shot to fame on the strength of a stirring ballad (I Believe) tagged to a highly-anticipated drama serial, Rondo (which stars Korean actress Choi Ji Woo).
Then there is Yuna Ito, 25, who is America-born like Hikaru, but found her big break in Japan playing a rock band vocalist in the hit film Nana last year. She also released the hit single, Endless Story, from the movie.
Miss Tay confirmed that Yuna is the 'next big new artiste' for Sony BMG, and hopes her debut will 'stimulate the Singapore market'.
Mr Kang, whose company pushed Ayumi to fame here in 1999, also said he has a 'special strategy' planned to launch Ayaka here in September after her Japan debut.
Meanwhile, there is hope that the real Hikaru's long-awaited return to the J-pop scene will spice things up a bit.
It has been two years since she bowed out of showbiz for health reasons and her lukewarm US debut. But she is expected to make a splashing comeback next month with a new album.
Who knows, the competition between Hikaru and the two newbies could just be what it takes to cement a new J-pop wave.
He's emotional over new role
THERE is a way to break Japanese actor Ken Watanabe's tough resolve - get him to talk about his new role as an Alzheimer's patient in the new Japanese film, Memories Of Tomorrow.
The Hollywood-based actor, 46, is so devoted to his role that he even shed tears while discussing it.
Critics are raving over Ken's poignant and sensitive portrayal, which the Last Samurai star partly credits to his personal triumph over leukaemia in real life in the early '90s.
Earlier, when speaking to the media in Tokyo, Ken had joked: 'I wanted to bring to foreign audiences a Japanese movie that did not have any samurais or ninjas in it!'
Aya wants to be a mum
IS J-popster Aya Ueto, 20, dying to get hitched?
At a recent endorsement event, she said she hopes to become a mother soon and have a bunch of kids by 25.
She has often been in the news lately, thanks to the 14 - - and still counting - endorsements she has inked.
Earlier, there was talk that the star of Attention Please had turned into a shopaholic who buys clothes without trying and has collected hundreds of handbags at home.
Apparently she spends lavishly to compensate for the lack of purchasing power in her younger days growing up in a frugal family.

Winter Sonata’ coming to Nepal [ 2006-5-21 ]
By Arun Ranjit
"Winter Sonata" is coming to Nepal.
According to the sources, one of the private enterprises is on preparations for airing of Korean popular TV drama "Winter Sonata" is now so unbelievably widespread and popular that it is clearly much more than a trendy fad.
The hyped drama, featuring Bae Yong-joon, Choi Ji?woo and Park Yong-ha, was the first Korean drama to be aired on NHK, Japan's public broadcasting station.
It also touched off an unprecedented craze for Korean pop culture among Japanese fans. It earned Bae the honorific Japanese nick name,"Yon-sama."
This, time, "Winter Sonata" will be broadcast with subtitles, not dubbed in Nepalese, the sources said.
"It is an effort to meet the demands of fans who want to hear the actual voice of "Yon-sama", joked one of the fans.
I remembered that when I visited Japan couple of months ago on my professional business, most of the Japanese persons I met, not only a cultural related persons but also a journalists, businesspersons, employees or shopkeepers talked about "Yon-sama" (Bae Yong Joon, the lead actor in "Winter Sonata")."
Thus, I thought that these Japanese might have been somewhat shocked to find out that they knew much more about the youthful actor with windswept hair'Bae Yong-joon.
Indeed, also I came to know that his popularity in Japan is rated on the top. It was also written in the newspaper that even Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi has also said that "Yon-sama is more popular than me". Actually, Yon-sama is a special honorific title originally reserved for royalty and aristocrats in Japan.
The drama brought flocks of Japanese tourists to Korea, who wanted to visit filming sites.
Some experts estimated that "Winter Sonata" generated about 2.3 trillion won (US $ 2.2 billion) in tourism and opened a new chapter in the relationships between the Korea and Japan.
The drama also been aired in various countries including the United States, China, Hong Kong, Uzbekistan, the Philippines, Malaysia, Cambodia, Singapore, Myanmar, Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, Egypt and more?.
These days the growth of cultural and knowledge industries of most Asian countries has somehow been hampered by differences in language-demographics and level of economic development.
It is our ardent hope that Asian countries, with which we share various geographical and cultural similarities, have to work to develop a common market in the culture and knowledge sectors. However, the trend setters involved in cultural and intellectual circles have developed a vision of an "Asian Cultural Community". As the first step in this direction, Nepal should strive to create a market with other countries.
The popularity of "Winter Sonata" has clearly shown how these barriers between the countries can be dismantled. Thus, this drama could be easily translated into Nepalese version.
The potential for creating an Asian cultural community and promising culture market should provide litmus test for this hoped for common culture market between the Asian countries and perhaps could be capitalized the age of narrow-minded nationalism has long passed; what is needed now is a future-oriented vision capable of transforming the whole of Asian region into a genuine cultural community into other continents.
The current "Hallyu" or Korean wave in Nepal offers an adequate background to help increase cultural exchanges between the two countries.
As the Korean people's interest in well-off arts and culture of Nepal has increased noticeably, the exchange of art and cultural shows has proven to be truly meaningful in further strengthening the cultural and friendly relations among the people of both the countries.
Cultural contact can do much in warming up relationships between any countries. The warm feeling between the citizens through traveling and the enjoyment of each other's movies, songs and other works of art can improve relations.
Nepal and (Republic of) Korea have an agreement on cultural exchange activities. And Nepalese and Koreans, with striking similarity in their Asian structures, share a cultural affinity that resulted from broad exchanges since ancient times too.
Koreans can quickly become close friends when they find out that they share something in common; for instance, the same hometown, the same school or the same hobbies. It is the sense of being 'one of us' which plays an important role in developing human relations in Korea.
As Nepal is a beautiful country endowed with unparalleled natural beauty and an opulent cultural heritage Korea is also very rich in that regard. There are many things that Nepal could learn from Korea in various areas.
Nepal and Korea both situated in Asia are home to diversity of cultures, where people live and mingle in harmony. Even though the levels of economic development and physical distance separate Nepal and Korea but they have always been close through mutual understanding, goodwill and cooperation.
Thus, Cross-cultural activities should be broadened to identify, respect, learn and incubate new trends of culture emerging from RoK and Nepal that could be proved a milestone in the field of culture.
Anyway, "Winter Sonata" is coming to Nepal soon. And, hopefully, this internationally popular drama will no doubt touch the hearts of the Nepalese viewers

The hyped drama, featuring Bae Yong-joon, Choi Ji?woo and Park Yong-ha, was the first Korean drama to be aired on NHK, Japan's public broadcasting station.
It also touched off an unprecedented craze for Korean pop culture among Japanese fans. It earned Bae the honorific Japanese nick name,"Yon-sama."
This, time, "Winter Sonata" will be broadcast with subtitles, not dubbed in Nepalese, the sources said.
"It is an effort to meet the demands of fans who want to hear the actual voice of "Yon-sama", joked one of the fans.
I remembered that when I visited Japan couple of months ago on my professional business, most of the Japanese persons I met, not only a cultural related persons but also a journalists, businesspersons, employees or shopkeepers talked about "Yon-sama" (Bae Yong Joon, the lead actor in "Winter Sonata")."
Thus, I thought that these Japanese might have been somewhat shocked to find out that they knew much more about the youthful actor with windswept hair'Bae Yong-joon.
Indeed, also I came to know that his popularity in Japan is rated on the top. It was also written in the newspaper that even Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi has also said that "Yon-sama is more popular than me". Actually, Yon-sama is a special honorific title originally reserved for royalty and aristocrats in Japan.
The drama brought flocks of Japanese tourists to Korea, who wanted to visit filming sites.
Some experts estimated that "Winter Sonata" generated about 2.3 trillion won (US $ 2.2 billion) in tourism and opened a new chapter in the relationships between the Korea and Japan.
The drama also been aired in various countries including the United States, China, Hong Kong, Uzbekistan, the Philippines, Malaysia, Cambodia, Singapore, Myanmar, Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, Egypt and more?.
These days the growth of cultural and knowledge industries of most Asian countries has somehow been hampered by differences in language-demographics and level of economic development.
It is our ardent hope that Asian countries, with which we share various geographical and cultural similarities, have to work to develop a common market in the culture and knowledge sectors. However, the trend setters involved in cultural and intellectual circles have developed a vision of an "Asian Cultural Community". As the first step in this direction, Nepal should strive to create a market with other countries.
The popularity of "Winter Sonata" has clearly shown how these barriers between the countries can be dismantled. Thus, this drama could be easily translated into Nepalese version.
The potential for creating an Asian cultural community and promising culture market should provide litmus test for this hoped for common culture market between the Asian countries and perhaps could be capitalized the age of narrow-minded nationalism has long passed; what is needed now is a future-oriented vision capable of transforming the whole of Asian region into a genuine cultural community into other continents.
The current "Hallyu" or Korean wave in Nepal offers an adequate background to help increase cultural exchanges between the two countries.
As the Korean people's interest in well-off arts and culture of Nepal has increased noticeably, the exchange of art and cultural shows has proven to be truly meaningful in further strengthening the cultural and friendly relations among the people of both the countries.
Cultural contact can do much in warming up relationships between any countries. The warm feeling between the citizens through traveling and the enjoyment of each other's movies, songs and other works of art can improve relations.
Nepal and (Republic of) Korea have an agreement on cultural exchange activities. And Nepalese and Koreans, with striking similarity in their Asian structures, share a cultural affinity that resulted from broad exchanges since ancient times too.
Koreans can quickly become close friends when they find out that they share something in common; for instance, the same hometown, the same school or the same hobbies. It is the sense of being 'one of us' which plays an important role in developing human relations in Korea.
As Nepal is a beautiful country endowed with unparalleled natural beauty and an opulent cultural heritage Korea is also very rich in that regard. There are many things that Nepal could learn from Korea in various areas.
Nepal and Korea both situated in Asia are home to diversity of cultures, where people live and mingle in harmony. Even though the levels of economic development and physical distance separate Nepal and Korea but they have always been close through mutual understanding, goodwill and cooperation.
Thus, Cross-cultural activities should be broadened to identify, respect, learn and incubate new trends of culture emerging from RoK and Nepal that could be proved a milestone in the field of culture.
Anyway, "Winter Sonata" is coming to Nepal soon. And, hopefully, this internationally popular drama will no doubt touch the hearts of the Nepalese viewers

The members of starjiwoo Japan had participated in a small “love practice activity” yesterday, the 10th in South Korea.
To our regret it rained heavily before the service started, so it was not possible to do it in the open place, and it was carried out in the underpass.
Even though it was raining many grandfathers and grandmothers came.
We apologized for starting the service late because it took sometime for the preparation.
Chocolates from starjiwoo Japan prepared by members who participated this time were presented to those present.
“Grandpas, how do you find the chocolates of Japan?”
While we were busy preparing, princess Jiwoo arrived without prior notice. She wore yellow apron and started serving the old folks busily, brightening the place with her shiny appearance.
Many people took part in the event and many thanks to everybody.
After the service ended an hour later, we went out to the open place and the rain had stopped.
Princess Jiwoo blew off the candles of the birthday cake in front of the parking lot and went off after that.
*(I'm sorry because I was not present at the scene; I am just passing on the message.)
We went to “Everland”(the theme park) by bus after lunch.
It was raining heavily again at that time. It was really strange weather. Who was the rain woman?^^*
Everyone put on raincoat, visited the safari and Rose Garden in movie Yeonriji’s shooting location, taking photographs, and everyone was happy.
However, we were not shown the place where “the interlocking branches tree” in “Yeonriji” was located. We played till late in Everland.
Surely everybody was tired, please take a well-earned rest
And for those who were not able to participate in the event this time their thought was with us in South Korea.
******
So kind and sweet of Jiwoo to attend the event even though she did not confirm that that she will be present. This shows that our dearest Princess is a very considerate and kind-hearted person.

Does 'Sonata of winter' make into a film, and do will Yonjun & Che Geu
perform?
2006/06/13(Tue) 16:53
The drama 'Sonata of winter' of heralding and Yonjun & jiwoo starring of Inoraif = So Myonfa South Korea style is told to be made into a film, and topics are collected. Such a plan was added that movie company Calcharcapmedia announced on the 13th, and the project of the movie of the South Korea style drama 'Sonata of winter' and the production copyright were acquired from KBS media in association with this recently.
As for the post of starring actor, Yonjun that gains explosive popularity in the sphere of Asia, and jiwoo, if 'Sonata of winter' that is born again is early as the movie, one's first concerns whether perform it. ..becoming empty.. possibility of public relations is guessed to be high to the supervisor still and the actor in the current situation on a side the acknowledgment level in association with this & existing actor and Yonjun ji woo and supervisor Yun Socho because it is not materialized.
'Sonata of winter' is the first time in South Korea where such a system doesn't exist at all the drama is made into a film though there is frequently a case where it is made into a film for the drama that becomes a big hit in Japan.
Open to the public to the fan at the beginning of next year is guessed, and the movie expected 'Sonata of winter' does to the foundation of the book 'Sonata Cheung San of another winter and that of Yugen' that got into the news, and is guessed becoming to the content that develops the story of the drama 'Sonata of winter' further because it is published in Japan recently.

......ETO THEME SONG RIN ATA NG YEON RI JI!
OST Julienne Taylor/ All Out Of Love
I'm lying alone with my head on the phone
Thinking of you till it hurts
I know you hurt too but what else can we do
Tormented and torn apart
I wish I could carry your smile in my heart
For times when my life seems so low
It would make me believe what tomorrow can bring
When today doesn't really know, doesn't really know
I'm all out of love, I'm so lost without you
I know you were right, believing for so long
I'm all out of love, what am I without you
I can't be too late to say that I was so wrong
I want you to come back and carry me home
Away from these long, lonely nights
I'm reaching for you, are you feeling it too?
Does the feeling seem oh, so right?
And what would you say if I called on you now?
And said that I can't hold on?
There's no easy way, it gets harder each day
Please love me or I'll be gone, I'll be gone
I'm all out of love, I'm so lost without you
I know you were right, believing for so long
I'm all out of love, what am I without you
I can't be too late to say that I was so wrong
what are you thinking of
what are you thinking of
what are you thinking of
what are you thinking of
I'm all out of love, I'm so lost without you
I know you were right, believing for so long
I'm all out of love, what am I without you
I can't be too late to say that I was so wrong
I'm all out of love, I'm so lost without you
I know you were right, believing for so long
I'm all out of love, what am I without you
I can't be too late to say that I was so wrong
I'm all out of love, I'm so lost without you
I know you were right, believing for so long
I'm all out of love, what am I without you
I can't be too late to say that I was so wrong, so wrong

Hallyu Flagbearer 겨울연가 (Winter Sonata) Will be a Film (http://asianfanatics.net/forum/Hallyu_Flagbearer_Winter_Sonata_Will_be_a_Film-talk263548.html)
Friday June 16, 2006 Korea
Submitted by ttenovy
http://www.twitchfilm.net/pics/dentistsonata.jpg
Now that I gave you time to curse, scream, and throw things at your screen, here's some details: Yoon Seok-Ho's 2002 KBS2 Drama is the most successful of all time, not necessarily at home (where it has its fans, and did pretty well in the ratings, but it would have been forgotten if not for its success overseas) but especially in Japan, where in a couple of years it made something like a few TRILLION (yeah, TRIllion) Won between distribution rights, DVD sales, Yonsama coffee mugs, toilet paper, teletubbie dolls and even condoms (OK, not really, but you get the picture). It made its stars Yonsama and Choi Ji-Woo two of the top actors in Japan, so much that Prez Koizumi joked Bae is more popular with okasans than he is (I can understand that...). It even allowed Park Yong-Ha (who can't act to save his life) to start a successful singing career over there, reaching the top of the Oricon Charts.
How's the show? If you listen to those who made money off of it, it's a masterpiece. If you listen to people like yours truly, think of going to the dentist for a visit that takes 20 hours to complete, and at the end your teeth are still rotting (or is it the brain?). Anyhow, yes, we're getting a movie adaptation of the popular Drama, with some sources saying this might end up becoming Yonsama's next movie project, and that Choi Ji-Woo might also join the proceedings, which would mean two things: most Koreans would yawn, and this thing would make gazillions in Japan. Aren't they making it for the okasan crowd anyway?
Film will be produced by Culture Cap Media, the peeps behind the Moon Geun-Young star vehicles 어린신부 (My Little Bride) and 댄서의 순정 (Innocent Steps), after buying rights from KBS Media. Shooting will start at the end of the year, for an early 2007 release -- Winter anyway, ahhh... doesn't it fit? Again, no word about cast or even the director, but some are saying Yoon Seok-Ho himself might be convinced to make his film debut. Be afraid, be very afraid...
