Full House 2

I watched Full House by Rain and Song Hye Kyo quite a long while ago. Now, they may start filming Full House 2 as reported in KBS Global.
When I first watched the show, it was the an episode shown on Malaysian channel. It was the episode which showed Rain and Song in Thailand and fighting for the bed. At that time, I wasn't very familiar with Rain. I didn't find him handsome. In fact, I thought he was too ordinary for Song. I thought the combination was weird too. Song looked older in that episode.
Anyway, when I chanced upon the show at a shop, I bought it. It was through this show, I realised how tall Rain was and that he had his cute side. Gradually, I got used to the Rain and Song's combi. I liked the show a lot and I repeated it quite a number of times. I liked the script. I liked the way they used the each other's methods to get back at each other.
The Full House V.2 may or may not recast Rain and Song. I am sure looking forward to it for the script sake.

Rating for Hyun Bin's Official English Website

My rating for Hyun Bin's official English Website is 3 out of 10.
Strengths:
Nice pictures and one and only place with his specially filmed videos for fans.

Weaknesses!!!!!
No updates. The last news was posted on 22 June 2007.
Schedule: July: EMPTY!!!!
Can you believe that Hyun Bin is doing nothing for the whole month?!
I checked out M Star Korean site and the last piece of news on Hyun Bin was 21 July 2007. However, it is in Korean!
Lousy Official Website!!!!! I thought official website will have his latest news, most exclusive and special things that other websites do not have. Sigh!
I am utterly disappointed with his official website...

Yoon Eun Hye's Picture

I was reading Popseoul on Yoon's fashion flop in the past. I have decided to post 2 pictures of her with Afro hairdo when she was still in Baby Vox. No offence intended. I think she still had her cute face then.

I remember watching a video on a Korean variety show whereby the artistes were "match-make". Yoon Eun was super hot then with 4 guys wanting to befriend her. Then it was recalled that Yoon was in the same show a year ago with no one interested in her. The host asked her what could have been the reason. She stated the hairdo and the flashback the video with the below hairdo. Hee... I wonder if I can find the video... If I can find, I will post it here.

Anyway, for Yoon's fans, you can get thousands of her pictures here:

Synopsis from Yesasia.com:

Han Ga In is probably the farthest thing from a witch in the eyes of K-drama fans, but she has slipped into her title role in SBS drama A Witch in Love (a.k.a. Witch Amusement) with perfect ease. Portraying a strong and aloof businesswoman this time, she is a world away from her timid, bespectacled image in Super Rookie. Opposite the beautiful Han Ga In is an equally photogenic line-up of actors - Jae Hee (Sassy Girl Chun-Hyang), Kim Jung Hoon (Palace), and Dennis Oh (Sweet Spy) - all in one drama! Add My Girl director Jun Ki Sang to the line-up, and it's impossible to not fall in love with this moody romantic drama and its beguiling witch.

Labeled a witch by those around her, advertising executive Ma Yoo Hee (Han Ga In) is a perfectionist, always impeccably dressed and professional to the point of coldness. Her strong, assertive personality and successful career translates to an equally unsuccessful love life. Clueless when it comes to romance, Yoo Hee finds her perfect composure breaking as she gets caught amongst three men: housekeeper-cum-relationship consultant Moo Ryong (Jae Hee), longtime friend Johnny (Dennis Oh), and first love Joon Ha (Kim Jung Hoon). Which one of these suitors will melt Yoo Hee's icy heart?

Finally, a fairer report

Ichoson gave a fairer report on Rain's cancellation of concert. Most importantly, M Star spoke up for Rain about him wanting to even sing a song for his fans.
I am not totally his fan, but I thought some reports were too critical of him. One should know very well how much hard work Rain must have put in for a concert.
Let us support those who are really good. I think Rain can sing and dance very well.
I hope this adverse publicity will turn out good with more people knowing him. :)

Rain cancels LA concerts

Ok, this is like a big piece of news, online K-news, Popseoul. I don't think he will want to cancel a concert that he has been preparing for. I kind of pity Rain. The reason is simple: the Korean organiser is M Star. Those who are familiar with Hyun Bin's managing company will know that's the same one.
On 26/06/2007, I wrote a comparison between Kim Jung Hoon's and Hyun Bin's company when I saw how far Hoonie has gone when compared to Hyun Bin. One was well-planned and the other was totally inactive in promoting its stars. Well, after seeing what has happened to Rain's concert, I don't have to say much about the company. The incident speaks for itself.
I hope the company will do some justice to Rain and perhaps Hyun Bin too.

Updated: Additional Information from Shin Ming Daily News: Apparently it was V2B Global over at the LA side that couldn't get things settled. It is not just M Star... Wah! Poor Rain. However, a Singaporean who flew there was upset that Rain didn't step out to apologise...

Teddy's take: Rain was very much a victim in such situations. I know why his fans were upset. However, I am sure his die-hard fans will be able to understand and accept that it was not his fault. I can't imagine how upset he is now. Perhaps very soon, Rain will have a press conference to apologise. I can see why he didn't do it there and then. Imagine staring at thousands of fans with disappointment, tears etc. It will be hard for Rain to swallow. Most probably he himself was emotionally charged then too. Do give Rain some time to come out and explain to the public.
Also, I think M Star must step out first to explain then Rain can step out easily. Afterall, all artistes need the managing companies to represent them in adverse situations. Sigh! Rain is a gem for Asia Music scene... Keep him that way.
