>> Knew about privacy-invading fans through Twitter not long ago

JKS: My life is my own. Why do I have to let people see? I am already presenting a lot of myself on television, I’m not a reclusive actor. Finding out where my house is, who I am meeting and actions such as these, either the person is sick or has too much possessive desire.

>> The higher popularity is, the more private life is lacking.

JKS: I don’t want to wear a mask in my actions, so I use twitter for easy communication. I’m a publicly acknowledged artiste, but I only want to be an artiste, that kind of artiste who can walk on the street and buy some new year’s cake to eat. However, even if I’m merely expressing my own opinion, people don’t like it. When I’m criticizing others, I would have reflected on myself first, I don’t act without thinking, I know what I’m doing.

>> You became Keun-sama after Yong-sama, why are you so popular in Japan?

Star News Interview

by

Jang Keun Suk – Next year is his 20th year since debut for this 24 year old actor, a leading representative of flower-pretty guys in their 20s. Already of threat to Bae Yong-joon in Japan, Keun-chan is continually expanding his career not only in Korea and Japan but also in China and Thailand. He is in fashion because of his widespread and overwhelming popularity.

In front of the camera, JKS who has gone through the growing-up adolescent period and transformed into an adult is an artiste who uses the most direct language and actions to bare himself. At a whim, he can suddenly dance in the middle of conversation. He will pull down his face mask to joke with fans, and will also leave this kind of warning on Twitter: “This is not right!”

Playful, frank and eloquent. In fact, this is not the seasoned deviousness of a pretentious style that gains the upper hand by striking first; [*this is accepted by JKS recently]. Despite the shield of “Kneedrop Guru”, this is completely JKS’ usual thick-skinned charm and good fortune.

JKS is very happy to talk about the romantic comedy “You’re my Pet” (YMP) that will show in cinema on 10 Nov.

A lovely interview that made my day, especially as I agree with all the positive comments about our dear Sukkie!
