FAD 3.0

Song Hye-kyo appears on the cover of this month’s issue of Vogue Korea, and she’s being touted as the first Korean star to have enjoyed this “privilege.” Apparently, Vogue Korea had been ignoring the “Korea” part of the magazine’s name, using international models and celebrities on its cover. Crazy clusterfuckers, those fine French folks who run the magazine. If next July they’d resume to using international celebs on their cover, I’ll rush there myself and eat a sack of French fries right before their greasy faces just to prove my point… What a minute, what again was my point?

In a recent survey in Korea involving more than 15,000 respondents, Song Hye-kyo emerged on top of the list of celebrities “envied for their breasts.” She got 3,462 votes (22.2%). I think so, too, but I can’t choose her if only for her boobs. Hye-kyo’s a lovely woman and will remain a stunner in my book even if she were flat chested. See how “accommodating” I am?

Second place went to veteran actress Kim Hye-su; while newly wed Han Chae-young was third.

Song Hye-kyo and the cast of new Korean film Hwang Jini held a press conference in Seoul on May 23.

Yoo Ji-tae, the film’s male lead, annoys the hell out of me.

A huge poster of Song Hye-kyo, part of the promotion for her upcoming film Hwang Jinyi, hangs on the side of the city council building in Seoul. Now that’s a pretty sight.

These are new posters for Song Hye-kyo’s new movie, Hwang Jin-yi.

Shot with a big budget of 10 billion South Korean won, the movie tells the story of a dancer, musician and poet called Hwang Jin Yi, who overcomes the hardships imposed by her low social status. It is expected to screen on the Chinese mainland from June 6.

Korean star Song Hye-kyo (or Song Hye-gyo), star of such hit TV series Full House and Endless Love, and last year’s film My Girl And I was recently in Hong Kong to attend the Hong Kong Film Awards presentation, thereby making that island much more fun — at least for a few days.
