'김옥빈 팬미팅 축하' 이동욱 MC 맡았다(lee dongwook undertakes MC for kims fan meeting)

탤런트 이동욱이 아끼는 후배 김옥빈을 위해 우정의 MC로 데뷔한다.





이동욱은 지난 2005년 SBS 추석특집극 ‘하노이 신부’에서 연인 호흡을 맞춘 탤런트 김옥빈의 데뷔 후 첫 팬미팅에서 MC를 맡는다. ‘하노이 신부’ 이후 KBS 2TV ‘안녕하세요 하느님’, MBC ‘오버 더 레인보우’ 등을 통해 차세대 스타로 자리매김한 김옥빈의 첫 팬미팅을 축하하기 위해 MC를 자청한 것이다.

이동욱은 준수한 외모와 재치 있는 말솜씨 덕분에 많은 오락 프로그램의 MC 섭외를 받았지만 고사해 왔다. 그러나 김옥빈의 데뷔 시절부터 함께 한 우정을 위해 기꺼이 MC로 나서 기로 했다. 이동욱은 김옥빈의 데뷔 시절 3가지 비밀 공개 등 다소 짓궂은 이벤트도 만들어 팬미팅을 흥미진진하게 꾸며줄 계획이다.

김옥빈의 측근은 “이동욱은 팬미팅이 열린다는 소식을 듣자 마자 가장 먼저 함께 하고 싶다는 의사를 밝혀 왔다. ‘하노이 신부’ 촬영 시절 에피소드 등 재미있는 이벤트도 준비하고 있어 김옥빈에겐 더없이 좋은 선물이 될 것이다”라고 말했다.

17일 오후 2시 서울 명동 펑키하우스에서 열리는 김옥빈의 팬미팅에는 ‘오버 더 레인보우’의 동료인 환희 서지혜 등도 함께 할 예정이다.
( Time: 2pm of 17th,Sept)

Hi just want to share with you this post from p_ballereena @ soompi


^Hi,
I just wanted to offer the correct translation of LDW's sign-off greeting. He always ends his posts with the phrase, 행복은 가장 가까운 곳에 있습니다. The best translation of this in English is, "Happiness is always in the place closest to you". In other words, don't go looking for happiness in far away places, but look for it in those (family, friends, situations) closest to you. I just wanted to clarify because it gives us another glimpse into the kind of person LDW is.

ANOTHER ARTICLE FROM OSEN

김옥빈, “동욱 오빠, 맛있는 거 사주세요”



[OSEN=박준범 기자] 김옥빈이 이동욱과의 인연으로 우정출연한 영화 ‘아랑’을 본 후 만족감을 표현했다.

김옥빈은 지난해 연기자로서 재평가 받았던 SBS 드라마 ‘하노이의 신부’에서 이동욱과 호흡을 맞췄다. 김옥빈은 이때 맺은 인연으로 이동욱의 첫 스크린 도전작인 ‘아랑’에 우정출연하게 됐다. ‘여고괴담4-목소리’에서 여고생 귀신 영언 역을 맡았던 김옥빈은 ‘아랑’에서는 반대로 귀신에 홀리는 여고생으로 분했다. 김옥빈이 연기한 내용은 영화 초반 공포분위기를 조성하는데 큰 몫을 해냈다.

김옥빈은 MBC 드라마 ‘오버 더 레인보우’ 뉴질랜드 로케이션 때문에 ‘아랑’의 시사회에 참석하지 못했다. 또 로케이션을 마치고 국내에 들어와서도 드라마 촬영에만 매달렸던 김옥빈은 지난 주말 잠시 여유가 생긴 틈을 이용해 서울의 한 극장에서 ‘아랑’을 관람했다.

영화를 본 후 김옥빈은 “영화 잘 봤다. 너무 잘 나온 것 같다”고 칭찬을 아끼지 않았다. 또 ‘아랑’이 기대이상의 흥행을 기록하고 있어 이동욱에게 “나에게 맛있는 것을 사줘야 하는 것 아니냐?”는 너스레를 떨었다. 6월 28일 개봉한 ‘아랑’은 제작사 집계결과(7월 9일 기준) 85만 6000여명의 관객을 동원하며 100만 관객 돌파를 눈앞에 두고 있다.

네이버 얼짱 선발대회 출신인 김옥빈은 ‘여고괴담4’로 데뷔해 드라마 ‘하노이 신부’와 ‘안녕하세요 하느님’을 통해 연기력이 성장했다. 현재 MBC 드라마 ‘오버 더 레인보우’를 촬영하고 있으며 지난해 출연한 영화 ‘다세포 소녀’도 개봉을 앞두고 있다.

Hi, julian_jasmine! I'm kinda confused here. Will "The Correspondents" be shown tonight or tomorrow night? And what's the exact time of this show? Thanks!


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


LDW oppa @ the SM Mall of Asia - Phil.



Source: Yahoo! Korea

Thanks to ImageShack for Free Image Hosting

wow!...really?...oh my god, i shouldn't miss it!...haha!...



hehehe, congratulations, indeed it's very addictive and touching!

julian_jasmine: thanks a lot for the news! hehehe. and i wonder where the pictures went?

What are these articles all about?!

Btw, about that English translationof LDW's sign-off greeting, it looks so nice.... It appears that LDW really has a very pleasing personality!!

The Philippines seems to be a favourite spot for popular K-stars to visit....so when did he pay a visit there? I'm really envious over here....I will never get a chance to catch a view of him in person....LDW encompasses more than just good looks!!!!

If he isa hearthrob in the Philippines, I won't be surprised cos' he has the stuff of a good actor....KUDDDDDDOOOOS TO LEE DONG WOOK!!!! WILL ALWAYS LOVE U!!!!

Back home in Korea, I hope that he is equally popular and close to the hearts of many!!!!!

this series was awesome..
i think im in love with le dong wook...i ve to watch loving you one more time.

you're welcome!...yeah, glad julian_jasmine is here to post some articles about lee don wook!...




le dong wook visited here maybe about 3 weeks ago?...hehe...


yeah, many korean stars visit the philippines because their series are also shown here and filipino fans wanted to see them in person...

i'm having trouble locating lee dong wook's movie DVD arang here in the singapore shops. does anyone know what's the chinese title of this movie? many shop assistants here in singapore only know the chinese titles and tell me there's no such movie called "Arang".



i wish he will come to singapore!

Hi Da_A!!!

THE CORRESPONDENTS WILL BE SHOWN TONIGHT AFTER BANDILA...I think its around 11-11:30 pm



Hi blueGurl_nineteen!!!
hopefully someone has already translated it in soompi.....we'll post the translation once we have it...



hi aichaku!!!

not sure about the chinese title of Arang..will try and search for you...by the way, you can also catch Arang at this site... http://www.aznv.tv!

EASY mag Sept 06:

"Some guys can make you fall in love at first sight. But some guys can make you fall in love without you being conscious of it, slowly (without being showy) discovering his good qualities. Lee Dong Wook is the latter. The man with the charm, when formerly he felt very much inferior partly due to his weight ( !), presently & much slimmer now, has been outstandingly talented, but still retaining his low key personality as he does not like to be in the public eye. The real him: lovable, s-e-x appeal, shy, off-beat, funny, complex, actually extraordinarily charming!"

Translation of Dong Wook's note:

Hello everybody, I am Lee Dong Wook.
No, I should be Gong Chan
I don't know what to say...
But first I must thank everyone ...
Thank you so much!!!
You guys gave me alot of love and support and watched this drama with enthusiasm, thank you.
With everyone's support, My Girl has finished smoothly.
Yesterday, no, today we have finished all the filming.
I have not yet returned to the reality feeling.
Like all other actors/actresses, I am not ready to leave the role of Gong Chan.
In this note, all this resemble what I want to say in my heart.
From the time we have filmed in Jeju, everyone has waited for the finale these past 85 days.
The burden was very big from the time I practiced the script to now.
When I began filming My Girl, I wasn't a 'popular actor'.
If I have everyone's support, it really can help me go on. ~^^
To the artists that we worked together, in order for us to take our final picture we had to work with our wonderful staff ... because of their help, it made me stand strong until now.
Da Hae!! thank you ^^
I am extremely happy to run into a very talented actress.
Remember to stay healthy, I hope we can cooperate again in the future to produce an as good drama.
Jun Ki ah!! Now that it is over, we shall go have a cup of tea like we always say.
Si Yeon...
The elder sister that is always played by jokes from me!!
Thank you for not having any disagreements during the filming proccess.
I frequently go through the jokes in the drama for pleasure ...
Every artists, thank you!!
Dong Wook and Dong Wook's character, Gong Chan, is extremely loved...
Even though I cannot thank every single person, I can feel it in my heart.
I thank everyone in my heart ... with my love ...
I thought it would be hard to write this but I have smoothly finished this speech.
Now there's not much time until the finale airs
After the broadcast, I am no longer Gong Chan.
Thank you for accepting me as Gong Chan!
Thank you !!! Thank you !!!
Until we meet again, you must stay healthy !!!

PS. Today's My Girl end does not have that 'end' meaning '&'........
For the life of Gong Chan, Yoo Rin ...

PS 2. I hope you will like the ending.

PS 3. Luck is near!

thank you for the link julian_jasmine, i just finished watching the movie! i must say, i feel lee dong wook should have been given more screen time and speaking lines in the movie. he's such a good actor i want him to get more chances to show off his skills! i'm glad to have watched the show.

thanks for sharing the photos and quotations from lee dong wook. he seems like such a sensitve soul ... ahh how lovely!!

hi michelle19 and FiNaY!!!! I just checked with kellee of soompi and she said that she got those pix from wookie's old series, Wooden Carousel....



wow aichaku!!!! im happy for you!!! actually i asked someone from soompi if she has heard of the chinese translation of the movie Arang and she said that it doesnt have an english translation either...but will try to check again....

good thing you were able to watch it already! yey!!! me? still saving enough courage to watch it! i am not into horror movies really! hopefully i will have enough guts to keep my eyes and ears open until the end of the movie....*fingers crossed* hehehe...

DON'T FORGET TO WATCH THE CORRESPONDENTS TONIGHT. They will be featuring THE KOREAN INVASION!!!

O my gosh! my eyes are dying to sleep while waiting for the correspondents.... but i almost fell out of my bed when I saw Wookie!!! Sheeshhh!!!!!!

They showed the visit of Wookie in Manila....*sigh* cant help but reminisced! so wookified right now!

I really wanted to watch the Correspondents show last night but it was too late already. I felt bad.

i had watched it and i agree really to host's closing remarks... it's the lack of heartfull patriotism in filipino people. i read before about koreans commenting that phils have vastful resources, just don't know how to cultivate. koreans are just thankful to us filipinos who helped them during the time of recovery from war. I just hope that they can mingle with us more often so that we can experience and enjoy both culture together. On my part i always greet them even though i don't know their names, because i know now they are helping us in terms of getting more jobs. The Correspondents just missed coming to Subic Bay... there are many koreans here...

By the way, does anyone know if Arang will be shown in Mall of Asia?

oh my god, hot hot hot bath pictures! and he's brushing his teeth! how cute!

anyway, i wonder if he really does smoke or it's just for the photoshoot and the arang movie...

but i've seen about two different photo shoots where he was smoking.

aww, i hope he isn't...hehehe...


and that speech he had, it's so sweet, made me miss seol gong chan even more!

julian_jasmine: a lot of thanks!

Oh my goooodd, those pictures of him at the sauna. SO HOT! And his legs are so freggin' seexxxyy. Thank you so much julian_jasmine for keeping this place alive and kickin' with the latest on everything of Wookie. Kamsahabnida! :-D

Oh my god, his noootee. So cute. I think it is. So sincere. I love him...I really do.

Goodness, now I feel like watching 'My Girl' all over again. Haven't seen it in ages.

Thank you everyone!

♡ ♡ ♡

Hi Neym! Unfortunately, he does smoke....a couple of fans who were chasing wookie at Edsa Shang last July was told by the security of the hotel that wookie needs some private time to smoke....

sadly he smokes but he is discreet about it......i think one reason that he smokes is because of the cold weather in korea...



hi justine!!! i missed your posts!!! its been a long time! hehe...yes I'm still here...its my pleasure to post the latest news about wookie....I guess im still sooooooo crazy about wookie!!!!

but im happy that you are able to drop by! what keeps you busy these days?

julian_jasmine: Feels good to drop by here...every once in awhile. The place has grown five pages since the last time I've been really active in here. Lol. I'm not that crazy over Wookie these days, but I still oh-so love him just as much. It's just that...well, I got into other Korean men and that's why I've been so busy and haven't been able to contribute to this Wookie thread.

I've been posting like a mad fangirl at the DBSK thread HERE. They're a Korean boyband and I've been oh-so crazy over them since. They're my FOREVER-kind-of-obsession. I never get tired of them. Lol. So that's where I've been since the last time I was active in the LDW thread. Aigo. Like how I was crazy in THIS thread...I'm even WORSE at the DBSK thread; I post pictures, the latest news, all the media, and such over there...imagine me at this thread, but then 10x more active at the DBSK thread.

But you're still here, so it's all good to go.

:-D

Keep the goodies coming in!

credits: weluvzanjoe @ pex

hehehe..thats nice to hear...at least you are still actively posting here at AF and still continue visiting LDW's thread... i still cant get over wookie....i guess because i found friends in the other forums who are all so crazy about him...

after watching The Correspondents last night, we are planning to enroll and learn Korean! hehehe...at least we can easily translate the articles and post it right away! who knows? we can even apply for a job in Korea! hahaahaha!!! silly me!

^ Yup, still very active here at AF. As you can see I've posted almost 700 replies...haha, so I've been VERY active. I visit the LDW thread whenever I can or whenever I have the time and have nothing else to do. I wish I can visit other people who are crazy over him too, but I've been SO busy meeting people who are in love with DBSK. Heh heh. Aie. Oh well.

Wow, you watched it? Do you know where I can watch it online? Do they have it at YouTube? So he was in it as well? Sorta lost here...lol.

Oh, I've taught myself Korean too! Since I've been so addicted with all-things-Korean (as well as it dominating over my life), I decided to teach myself the characters and everything. At least you're enrolling for classes! That's awesome! Must be fun...reading Korean is really fun. I find it really fun. Oh my god.

But that would be awesome if you were to translate things! :-D

FIGHTING!

화이팅!!!

It's really sweet of him to utter those niceties...see, I know he has more than good charming looks!!!!
Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! He needs to put on more weight to get that extra fat to look ssssseeeeexxxxyyyy!!!!! though....that's being naughty of me!!!!

well yeah, maybe it's because of the weather but that's kind of a minus point for him. hehehe. just one though. out of 100, he still has 99! hahaha!

oh god, he's so cute in that pic where he wears the baseball cap and the hat. and is that a scene from hanoi bride? in that KBS screencap?

About Wookie smoking...I think that almost every Korean out there smokes. Especially the lead actors for the Korean drama series. Every series I've watched so far, I found out later that the lead actor seems to smoke. I guess it's just their thing.

:-D

Wookie with his sister....

here's what is said of NOVEMBER-BORNS (like WOOKIE):

Trustworthy and loyal. Very passionate and dangerous. Wild at times. Knows how to have fun. Sexy and mysterious. Everyone is drawn towards your inner and outer beauty and independent personality. Playful, but secretive. Very emotional and temperamental sometimes. Meets new people easily and very social in a group. Fearless and independent. Can hold their own. Stands out in a crowd. Essentially very smart. Usually, the greatest men are born in this month. If you ever begin a relationship with someone from this month, hold on to them because their one of a kind.

I told my friends sadly that LDW

smokes. Instead of getting a response that condemns him to the core my friends just shrugged their

shoulders and uttered....which popular actor does not do it....so I will forgive him on that account....cos' he

does not struck me as someone who smokes

BUT HIS TEETH LOOK COLGATE CLEAN!!!! THAT'S AMAZING!!

well yeah, although it affects me a little bit i don't care as long as he stays a good man...


i just hope he won't get sick because of that...lol!...




oh my god, that sounds cool!...i can't wait til next month!...lol!...





haha!...well i was quite shocked myself when i found out that he does smoke because it doesn't show in his face and teeth!


well i still love him as long as he stays a good guy!...

julian_jasmine: funny dancing pics, looks so much like them!...and that photo with a huge piggy bank!...haha!...so cute!...


his sister doesn't look really cute though...hehe...


aahh, baby pics!...so cute!...

OMG! I'll look forward for that November event! Hope he celebrates it with his fans and of course, with Lee Da hae!

Julian_Jasmine: Thank you for updating us about LDW! Thank you, thank you! That pic of him and LDH sleeping is very cute! Also, his pics as a kid... Very cute indeed!
