Hey Kathyd-nj, that's cool that you watched it! Wasn't it a great show? It had me at the edge of my seat. I didn't know it was a true story. Is it really? That makes it even more sad. I also think Kimura is fabulous. (lol) His dramas are always interesting and meaningful. I always look forward to them. I'm current watching "Change" and it's so funny.

Here is a link to the original version of this movie:

I read on a japanese fan site the family is a real one associated with the banking industry & stell industry, so I assumed its a true story -- but I haven't been able to find much about them because everything I pull up on them is in Japanese. So take it with a big grain of salt -- but hey, it was a great drama to watch!!

I have all Kimura's stuff -- even ones only in Japanese -- I just adore him!! If you can see him in some of his really good early stuff, so much the better -- like Long Vacation or Beautiful Life. And one I have that is really eerie with him called the SLEEPING FOREST. Really one of his best!!

He attended Mr. So, ji-sup's movie premiere.

Bae Yong Joon, So Ji Sub AND Kang Ji-hwan...

tsk tsk tsk... Jenn Jenn Jenn...
You forgot your all time favorite... KSW!!! He was there at the premiere!!!
And you told me you aren't sad/mad that he will get married...

funny Annie!!! i actually didn't read anything about the premiere - i just went by your post about BYJ and i knew the 2 main actors in it!!! i would NEVER EVER be mad at KSW for being happy!! disappointed he didn't wait for me but not mad!!

Sorry Annie I haven't been online in a while -- so thanks for all the posting by you and others about my beloved BYJ!!

Yes he may be older but only better with time!!

And I finally got a copy of THE LEGEND OF THE 4 KINGS and its FABULOUS! He was definately born to play this role and he gave it his all, that's for sure!

And I can't imagine a movie premiere with so many hot men in one room -- I mean really, did they give out towels to the women there to wipe up the drool???
