Actress Kim Tae Hee, elder sister of Lee Wan (‘Tree of Heaven’, ‘Stairway to Heaven’), has made another hit. You may recognize the name from the actress of the hit dramas such as ‘Love Story in Harvard’, ‘Forbidden Love’, and Stairway to Heaven’ and movies such as ‘The Restless’ (with Jung Woo Sung from ‘Daisy’ and ‘Sad Movie’). Well anyway, Tae Hee has had many reviews on her great performance of action skills from her latest movie ‘Fight’. So good in fact, that people dare to compare her to Angelina Jolie! Only question in my mind is, does she top Yoon So Yi (‘Arahan’, ‘Shadowless Sword’) who was very much wanted for the American action movie ‘Blood the Last Vampire’ (instead going to lovely Jun Ji Hyun)?

The plot of ‘Fight’ : “It’s a story of a couple who once loved each other greatly but ended up in a fierce fight. “Fight” is reminiscent of the Hollywood movie “Mr. and Mrs. Smith” starring Jolie.
A person from the movie’s production firm said “Fight” has many action scenes and is modeled after “Mr. and Mrs. Smith.” Playing opposite Seol Kyung- koo, Kim portrays a woman who takes revenge on a man she once loved but whom she now hates.”

Other current news, ‘Milyang’ A.K.A. ‘Secret Sunshine’ broke records at the French box Office. It hit the 7th spot out of 17 current/new movies. This movie won reviews from every one in Korea and now France. Jun Do Yun also took the award of Best Actress Award to boot.
Why is it such a success you ask? Well that’s because the film was only shown in 58 theaters through out France! Still don’t get it? Well think about it, 58 theaters in that fairly big and rich country and it hit the top ten in movie statistics? It went up against (and beat) ‘Rush Hour 3’, showing in 452 theaters, ‘Michael Clatyton’, shown in 291 theaters, and ‘Invasion’, showing in 226 theaters.
The news about Jun Ji Hyun returning to Korea after her American Debut (‘Blood: The Last Vampire’) are true! In the future, Jun Ji “Sexy” Hyun will star in a movie with co-star Hwang Jung Min (‘Happiness’, ‘Over the Hedge’ voice with BoA) in ‘A Man Once Superman’
She will return with a new dramatic movie! Yay!

“According to CJ Entertainment on the 27th, Jun Ji Hyun will play Song Soo Jung, a producer of a small production company of realistic and unsympathetic character that tries to use Superman (Hwang Jung Min) to film a human documentary.
Jun Ji Hyun says, “I found the scenario to be very unique and I am looking forward to working with Hwang Jung Min.”
Junn Ji Hyun has been filming “Blood the Last Vampire” based on the original Japanese animation.
“The man who used to be Superman” is a delightful human drama about a man who believes hi is Superman and proactively helps neighbors. The movie is to be directed by Jung Yoon Cheol of “Marathon” and will start filming this fall to be released early next year.”

And the movie star mistake goes to… Daniel Dae Kim who stars as Jin Soo Kwon in the American hit show, ‘LOST’. He pulled a “Lindsay Lohan” and was driving while under the influence!
He was arrested at around 3 am and was booked at the Honolulu Police Station (I wonder if it’s still like paradise while in prison in Hawaii….) and was bailed at 5:05 am.
Ouch!
