^prisci

thanks for providing more information on UTW...and for telling me the corrections that I posted up on the first post. I'll be sure to go and edit my post. And I can tell that you did a thorough research on UTW.

i don't have any problem with you helping out with this thread. in fact, i don't know much about UTW...i just started this thread for creidesca...so she would be the one that will be adding/updating more information about UTW rather than me. Although I am not a hardcore fan of UTW...i do find him attractive and very charismatic...really fell in love with his character in the drama 'resurrection', though I haven't thoroughly seen the whole drama.

but anyways, thanks for posting up more info again ~

[mily2]

wow.. thank you sandy & prisci for all the info on this cool guy.. I took notice of him in Nine-tailed fox.. but I didn't like him all that much since he wasn't nice in sassy girl choon-yang.. but my views changed completely when I started Ressurection.. just WOW!! I was hooked since the first episode but decided to wait until all the subs are out and enjoy it fully in one sitting since I don't want ruin this serie by watching it raw.. hehe.. thanks again for all these wonderful info.

[Priscilla]

Hi Purpletiger! Thanks for your prompt reply! You're not a Hard-core... hmm, I wonder if I am myself, or if this is just a face. Anyways, here's more on UTW...

Actually, it's been like a week already since I first read that UTW's next project will be a movie. I was waiting for more confirmation before I write this up, but I think something of this was mentioned even during the fan meeting. So I guess it's confirmed?

As far as I can remember, it was going to be a fantasy melodrama, where Moon Sori (from Oasis) would play as his sister, and he would fall in love with GO DOO SHIM. The announcement got mixed reactions from his fans. Go Doo Shim is like the ELIZABETH TAILOR in Korea, last year alone, she won the GREATEST ACTING AWARD from both MBC and KBS... Moon Sori, she is concidered an actress among actresses... but the tricky thing was... GDS's over 60 years old (?). How can she and UTW be lovers!!!! OMG!!!!

Watching some of UTW's previous works... I felt he likes to choose artistic things over the 'popular' thing... but still... I just can't imagine. I'll write more as I learn the REAL TRUTH! :shock:


THE FOLLOWING WAS JUST POSTED... I think at the KBS Board(?) The Great Actor's Award was the same one that Bi/Rain & SJS won last year. And although I'm soooooo proud of seeing UTW in the list... in spite of the low rating... I have a feeling Song Il Gook (from God's of the Sea) will give him a tough game!

[shirley]

purpletiger86

~~ haha and i was wondering how come suddenly sandy is gaga over UTW also ......good to see u use back your nick ^ *

As far as I can remember, it was going to be a fantasy melodrama, where Moon Sori (from Oasis) would play as his sister, and he would fall in love with GO DOO SHIM. The announcement got mixed reactions from his fans. Go Doo Shim is like the ELIZABETH TAILOR in Korea, last year alone, she won the GREATEST ACTING AWARD from both MBC and KBS...

Watching some of UTW's previous works... I felt he likes to choose artistic things over the 'popular' thing... but still... I just can't imagine. I'll write more as I learn the REAL TRUTH! :shock:

GO DOO SHIM ..she such a marvellous actress .i once read in her interview haha she saying she also want to be cast in a role that can experience romance too!! ..haha so maybe this movie can be it ......which i wonder if it is true how the plot will go .but moon soori in it too then the movie shuld be something to look forward too!!


wow how come they so early with the KBS awards....

[purpletiger86]

Whoa~that's interesting information about UTW's movie. Falling in love with an OLDER woman???...hmm~~I do love Go Doo Shim....she is just an amazing actress. Wow, that was a major shock. But it seems like an interesting/eye catching movie.
And I agree...UTW does seem to pick scripts that are not directly hinted to the typical love story dramas that have so many cliches. And besides, that makes him stand out more.
