At that time, I had a compulsion to convey both characters’ and my own emotions through Love Rain. I believe, in many areas that I’ve not experienced, the director and scriptwriter will give me lots of help.”

Team H Mini Album Vol. 1 – The Lounge H Vol.1 (CD + DVD + Photobook) (Taiwan Version)

Now, this probably means that if there is any text, it will be in traditional Chinese. Shouldn’t be too bad because the songs and DVD are more important, right?

Also, I don’t know what kind of photo-book they mean, but it could be the usual kind of photo-book found in albums.

* Disclaimer: I do not know whether any English edition will come out in future, so please think carefully before you buy!

This album is also available at HMV Japan but at a much higher cost.
If you would like to buy from YesAsia, please go to this link.

29 Aug 2011 – The filming of “You’re my Pet” (YMP) concluded yesterday and it will be in cinemas in Korea in November this year, and in Japan in January next year, and the lead actor / actress will go to Japan for promotion. Filming in Ibaraki had to be abandoned because of Japan’s Great Eastern Earthquake, and the two leads expressed that their hope that this movie can bring spirit and courage to everyone.

This movie shows Jang Keun Suk’s masculine side as well as many adorable aspects, and Kim Ha Neul added that YMP is a movie that would make people long for such a “pet” at least once in their lifetime.

[News] Media feel unfair that JKS became target of anti-Hallyu influences

Sohu Korean Entertainment News – Korean star Jang Keun Suk held a “Marry me Mary” (M3) fan-meeting on 18 August at Budokan. This drama had favourable reviews when it was aired on KBS in May this year. On 18 August, JKS and Moon Geun Young re-enacted classic scenes from the drama, and also performed OST such as “Take Care, my Bus”.

In the talk segment, JKS continued his sudden streaks of cuteness. When asked which scene he liked best in M3, he answered directly, “the kissing scene, because we’ve had lots of practice”, which almost made all the eels in the audience faint. He then added that he was “joking, Michael Jordan (pronunciation of Jordan and ‘joking’ in Japanese is close)!” Every time that JKS visits Japan, he would exhibit the results of his Japanese language learning and the new phrases he learns.
