      A fatherly actor

      Gong Yoo is not a standard handsome guy in appearance, but he often fascinates me. Could it be that there is something wrong with my aesthetics?

      No, no, beautiful men may be common, but there are not many male actors who feel like fathers, and Gong Yoo is one of them. He gives people a feeling of fatherly love. It's not the kind of father who lacks in growing up and only yells at you to read, but the kind of father who protects you and gives you a sense of security, holding you high in...

      I want to hit N+1

      Recently, the Korean film and television market has gradually heated up, and the recent hit TV series "You Who Came From the Star". I remember that Kim Soo-hyun, who played Professor Do in the play, once had a work "Secret and Great", in which Kim Soo-hyun played a North Korean agent lurking in South Korea. What I want to talk about today is another Korean secret agent movie that I recently watched. I have to mention that Korean action films already have their own piece of the sky. In the past,...

      korean version of espionage

      First of all, the film is a fake Bournemouth. This quality cannot be imitated domestically. Especially the chase scenes and action scenes, the Korean version is full of spy shots.
      The background is the conflict between North and South Korea. I don’t know much about North Korea. I don’t know if the North Korean people are starving. I don’t know if it’s a national policy or a conspiracy theory that the country is deliberately not improving people’s livelihood. But I like the big context. As...
