[News] CNN flies to Korea to see new-generation Hallyu star Jang Keun Suk
In order to see the glamour of the new-generation Hallyu star Jang Keun Suk, even the CNN from America has sent out its troops.
On 16 July, American and Japanese mainstream media such as CNN, Fuji TV and Tokyo Communications will be sending their reporters to the filming set of “You’re my Pet” to do on-the-scene reporting.
Such a big batch of foreign media coming to visit a Korean-produced movie set in Korea is quite rare. This is also indirect evidence of JKS surpassing Bae Yong-joon’s status as the new-generation Hallyu star.
This year in March, JKS attended this movie’s press conference in Japan. The filming had not yet started then, but tickets (to the press conference) were all sold out.
According to sources, upon strong requests from foreign media,

[News] JKS: What is seen and what is not seen both exist
12 July 2011 – Popular Korean star Jang Keun Suk was in Hang-zhou two days ago for the recording of Zhe-jiang TV’s “I love memorizing lyrics”. When asked about the unstated Korean showbiz rules, JKS said tactfully, “What is seen and what is not seen both exist.”
With a planned album release in China in the later half of this year, JKS hopes that he can have a chance to study Chinese in Shanghai. Compared to other Korean artistes entering the Chinese market and participating in the filming of movies and dramas, JKS is different in that he is more cautious. “I feel that language communication is now my greatest obstacle.”
Always having been labelled as a “flower-pretty boy”, JKS expressed his wish to

When it comes to finding a challenging character, JKS will not take on any more pretty boy roles. As for his ideal girl criteria, JKS does not care about age but on whether she is easy to get along with.
Sina: Shanghai being the last station of Cri Show Asia Tour, any special thoughts about this? What have you prepared especially for the Shanghai fans?
JKS: Seoul is the last station for this entire Asia Tour, Shanghai is the last of the overseas countries, and will have the biggest stage..I have a lot of ideas for this show, want to know more? Please watch the show tomorrow
Sina: In Taipei, you claimed that Taiwan fans are your “brides”, how about fans in Shanghai & Beijing?
JKS: Taiwan eels wore wedding gowns at the airport, thus I called them my brides. No matter at which place, as long as there is someone waiting for me, I will let them be my women.
Sina: Any incident that leaves you a deep impression from this Asia Tour?

It’s about my business trip last weekend.
Departure from Haneda Airport, Saturday night.
The fare to Seoul is lower than that to my hometown, Kagoshima. So I just packed my things into a tote bag as if I was going to a domestic trip? No… because I had to take some equipment and clothes for this shooting trip. After 2 hours flight, I landed at Gimpo Airport. This is the hotel (JW Marriott Hotel Seoul) where I stayed.
Despite of the dead of night, I had a meal.
To a Samgyetang shop that is open 24 hours a day.
