photo680049.jpg


 


Actor Hwang Jeong-min claimed Kang Dong-won is the best partner he ever had. This was the result of a lie detector.


Hwang Jeong-min put his hands on a lie detector and answered questions at the show case of the movie "A Violent Prosecutor" on the 28th.


The first question was if he couldn't stand injustice like lawyer Byeon Jae-wook and Hwang answered, 'Yes'. It was true.


The second question was if Kang Dong-won was his best partner ever and Hwang answered the truth again.


The last question was if he thought he looked better in the prison uniform than Kang Dong-won and he answered the truth once again.


Hwang Jeong-min takes on the role of a lawyer named Byeon Jae-wook who is framed for murder and Kang Dong-won is a pretty-boy con man named Chi-won.


Meanwhile, "A Violent Prosecutor" is a criminal movie about a lawyer framed for murder joins hands with a con man he meets inside prison and frees him first in order to get out himself. The movie will be released on the 3rd of February.

Actress Sin Hye-seon revealed how she felt about filming a kiss scene with Kang Dong-won.


So Yoo-jin, Wang Bit-na, Lim Soo-hyang, Sin Hye-seon, and Kwon O-joong appeared on the special episode, 'You are a king' of KBS 2TV's talk show, 'Happy Together 3'.


During the episode, Sin Hye-seon opened up about the kiss scene with Kang Dong-won. Kang Dong-won is known as an actor who has not filmed many kiss scenes. Because of this, the intense kiss scene drew much attention and Sin Hye-seon earned the nickname, 'Lotto woman' as in someone who is so lucky.


Sin Hye-seon said, "The kiss scene was not in the script originally. But it was created instantly. I was so excited but I acted indifferently" and "I thought he would have felt some burden if I'd reveal too much excitement".


When she was asked what she and Kang Dong-won talked about during filming the scene, she said she couldn't remember anything as if her memory had been shut off and then she blushed.

Song Kang-ho and Kang Dong-won in "Fifth Column" photo730384.jpg


 


Will the rendezvous between Song Kang-ho and Kang Dong-won happen again?


Ticket power holders Song Kang-ho and Kang Dong-won are likely to star in the movie "Fifth Column". Song Kang-ho has already hopped on board while Kang Dong-won is going through details after being mesmerized by the scenario. If he decides, then it's the first time in 5 years since "Secret Reunion" that they are co-starring in the same movie.


"Fifth Column" is an action thriller about a military investigator facing a huge scam. A spy gang is the main subject of the movie and Song Kang-ho was on top of the casting list. He takes on the role of the military investigator and Kang Dong-won has been offered another leading role that's the opposite in terms of character.


According to sources, Kang Dong-won has shown a great deal of interest in the scenario. He's going to wrap up "Master" and join "Fifth Column".


Kang Dong-won has continuously been coming up with movies in the last 1~2 years and has been creating a solid base for himself. He is currently in the Philippines for the movie "Master" and will return this month.


Prior to "Fifth Column", Song Kang-ho is also in the middle of making another movie called, "Taxi Driver". Based in Gwangju in the 1980s, Song Kang-ho takes on the role of a taxi driver.

[in-depth] Kang Dong-won's innocent transformation in "Vanishing Time: A Boy Who Returned"


photo772056.jpg


 


Pretty boy actor Kang Dong-won is back with a melodramatic fantasy film called "Vanishing Time: A Boy Who Returned".


"Vanishing Time: A Boy Who Returned" is the story of a boy who disappears when he goes to the mountains with his friend, only to return as a full-grown adult a short time after.


This movie is producer Eom Tae-hwa's first commercial film. He wrote the scenario himself and anticipation has been building for his detailed set-up and emotional layout.


The source of the movie is nothing like ever seen before in Korean movies.


 


photo772057.jpg


 


The premiere of the film was held on the 11th. Eom said, "The film starts with a grown man standing in front of the waves and a little boy. The boy believes the man whom no one else believes. I wanted to talk about faith through it and based on that, I wanted to show the purity of love".


"Vanishing Time: A Boy Who Returned" is an imaginary world so I worked hard to make the cast and staff understand it. There's a lot to do on my own in independent movies but this time I didn't have to worry about that. I communicated with the cast as much as I could and I did my best".


The movie features Kang Dong-won who has a big female fan base.


His last two movies "The Priests" and "A Violent Prosecutor" were tremendous hits and he chose to go for a new look in a fantasy movie this time.


He plays Seong-min, a boy who returns as a grown man.


Kang Dong-won said, "This is the purest character I've ever played; it was not easy finding the right balance between boy and man. My character also has to give faith and suspicion at the same time. I paid attention to acting and talking like a boy".


Kang has been working with a number of rookie producers now and he said, "Being the same character isn't fun. As an actor, I enjoy being in different genres and characters. I put a lot of weight on scenarios when I choose work and if they are good, I Don't Hesitate".


Producer Eom said, "Kang Dong-won is the first person I thought of when I wondered who could be a man and a boy at the same time".


Kang Dong-won appears only 40 minutes after the movie starts.


 


photo772058.jpg


In the role of Soo-rin is Sin Eun-soo, who passed the 300:1 audition. She hasn't had much experience as an actress but her girly image and ample emotions drew herself attention.


Sin Eun-soo said, "The agency told me to go for an audition so I did and I was very surprised to have passed it although I have little experience. Kang Dong-won and producer Eom took good care of me on the set".


About working with Kang Dong-won, she said, "It was very uncomfortable at first, but now it's a lot better. My friends only ask about Kang Dong-won and not about my role".


Eom said, "She didn't get cold feet in front of the 100 or so actors and staff. She's from heaven. She did great from the beginning".


The young Seong-min is played by Lee Hyo-je from "The Last Princess" and "The Priests". Kim Hee-won takes on the role of Soo-rin's step father, Kwon Hae-hyo plays Baek Ki, the detective in charge and Eom Tae-hwa is Seong-min's friend Tae-sik.

Kang Dong Won proves visuals trump all with another fashion look

Article: Kang Dong Won 'fashion only I can pull off'

Source: Sports Today via Nate

1. [+586, -15] Is his coordi from NASA... she's so experimental with his fashion, she wants to send him out to space with the way she's dressing him sometimes

2. [+548, -11] Kang Dong Won really matches his name so well

3. [+282, -6] Does he dress like that because he wants to feel average on purpose... he's always dressed like that he's purposely trying to look weird

4. [+16, -5] Ugh... coordi please

5. [+14, -2] I wonder if Son Ye Jin's coordi and Kang Dong Won's coordi are friends

6. [+13, -1] His handsome face really makes up for any fault. He could look good in just plain jeans and a t-shirt. His hair style looks weird in this too. Would it kill his stylists to make his good looks shine for once?

7. [+13, -1] Kang Dong Won's tall height makes him seem manly but his face is actually boyish... very innocent charm to him despite being a man. His voice is so deep and low too... sigh...

8. [+12, -1] I'm guessing most of these weird fashion looks are sponsored clothings... but if they're sponsored, then I have to wonder what these fashion brands are thinking making clothes like this to sell... It's not like there are a million Kang Dong Wons in the world who can pull them all off.

9. [+10, -1] But the way he's so consistently bad with his style might mean that it's just his own personal style and we're blaming it on the poor coordi...

10. [+8, -1] We're blinded by his fame and his handsome face. If anyone in real life dressed like this in public, they'd be ridiculed, no matter how handsome they were.

kang-dong-won_1478291079_af_org.jpg

 

Kang Dong Won revealed a part of his personality through a game of 'OX (yes or no)' through the 'V' app on November 4!

 

On this day, fans queried about his real personality because netizens had dubbed him a 'sweet pumpkin.'  When asked, "Are you the type to not give false hope?" he replied, "That's right.  I'm the type to quickly cut things off."

 

 

Also, Park Kyung Lim asked him about plans to appear in a drama.  The actor replied, "I'm open to it," but also revealed, "Right now, my schedule for next year is completely packed. There are more than one or two productions I'm talking over, so it probably would take a while..." suggesting it'd be hard to greet his fans through the small screen again for a while.
