Jung II-woo is a Kiss from a Rose on the Gray…

July, 2009

When I started this post, I realized I had very few photos for it.  I started playing with  photos of roses and his images to make more images. Inspired by the beauty of these photos of Jung II-woo and the roses,  I made the connection to the great song by Seal “A Kiss from a Rose.”  After listening to it, I decided to create the video you are about to enjoy.

I feel that Jung II-woo does exactly what it says on that song for me and for many of his fans:  ‘He hits a light on the gloom of the gray’ of our lives.  I feel in a deeper level we do the same for him.  He is our rose as we give him our love.  He is our pleasure (rose) but there is always the pain (thorn) of not getting to know the real Jung II-woo.

First is the video.  This video has many images and I was very excited as it is the first one where I incorporated video with content to match the lyrics of the song.  Credit to KBS2 / Star K Entertainment/on the photos for the Jung II-woo photos and the internet and creators of all the images I used!  

Enjoy a kiss from our rose… Jung II-woo:

 

These are the photos. I start with the images that inspired me.  Cr. KBS2 / Star K Entertainment, and on the photos.

This one was taken during this photo shoot as well:

And these were my photo composites with roses. In most I tried to convey the feeling of him being our rose, our light, the beauty that we want in our lives in those moments when we feel sad, angry, or just simply tired of seeing all the horrible things that happen in this world…   The First photo has another meaning …it is about how we make him our rose and he in turn needs our love and appreciation to be that rose.  Jung II-woo is very aware of this. This is why he expresses so much gratitude and kindness to his fans whenever he can….

Jung II-woo is after minute 4… they play with helium balloons!  It is hilarious! And then the rose photo shoot comes after…  enjoy!

 

WITAT

Some artists are way ahead of their time or unlucky and their creations are not loved in their time.  Others take their fans love for granted… maybe in a way they are vain and only love themselves. But can an artist really feel satisfied if he does not connect with other human beings about their creation?   Jung II-woo is humble enough to know that there is a sort of symbiotic relationship between the artist and the fan.  One does not really exist without the other… it is the appreciation that completes a successful artist.

And as there is great beauty (rose), there is also potential ugliness (thorns) in this symbiotic relationship.  The artist must keep a balanced head…not loose sight of friends, family, the things that keep her/him grounded.  Not get too high on their pedestal!  A good relationship with mom usually does the trick!  In the same manner, the fan must not become obsessed, to the point of persecution of that artist. Or loose perspective of the human that the artist still is.  Fans must always remember that artists can make mistakes, they can be having a bad day, or may feel too tired to want to stop to say hi!  In many instances they are doing the best they can.  I know this is true of Jung II-woo…sometimes I think he gives too much of himself.  He is way too kind!

And…Happy Fourth USA!  Dearest Boston, thank you for giving me a safe home and the freedom to be.

 

Posters for “Take Care of the Young Lady” “아가씨를 부탁해”

July 2009

This production of KBS2 known in Korean as “아가씨를 부탁해” received various names during the course of its production and release in different countries.  “Lady Castle,” “My Fair Lady” and “Take Care of the Agasshi”  “Take care of the Young Lady”…so many names!!!   I decided to stick with the last one because that is how this drama is known in the USA (where I live).

After Jung II-woo was done with Iljimae, the project of “Take Care of the Young Lady” was one of various offers. He had about 30!!!   This is what he said about why he chose this drama:

“The script is really entertaining. I’ve known about this project for a year, when it was in the planning phases. I thought it would be a fun drama, and I’m happy to be a part of it. The best thing is the two solid supports — I’m glad to have my very close hyung [Yoon] Sang-hyun and Yoon Eun-hye sunbae.

I’ll do my best with my role, but I’m glad to be working with my sunbaes. I also wanted to do a romantic comedy, so I’m pleased to have this chance.”   (Note: A Sunbae is an older person than you are.)

Jung II-woo along with the main cast: Yoon Sang-hyun,Yoon Eun-hye and Moon Chae-won took part in the photo shoot of these posters.  I found some videos of them photographing these poster pictures and they are hilarious!  Soon Sang-hyun fooled around so much…he had Jung II-woo in stitches!  (laughing a lot!)  From these takes you can tell Sang is a really fun and funny person!  It must have been nice for Jung II-woo to work with him.

Interview from Chosun:

“Excellent high kick! “As soon as I made a debut on television with a TV debut, Jung Il who showed Imchen as an actor in this year’s” Billboard Irishme “and also showed growth as an actor. I interviewed Jung Il who came to Japan for the first fan meeting held on the 20th.

– There was a lot of action scenes in “Bishouniter Irujimen”, was it serious?

“I went to action school one month before going into shooting, but I had a hard time because I was playing Aikido and sports since my childhood, but it has become memorable, I like wire action.”

– Love scene was also impressive, how was it?

“The director likes the love scene.It is suddenly said” Chew up early “even though it is not in the script (lol) Yun Jin-soo of the opponent is a senior and leads us, problems I was able to do it naturally as a part of acting. “

– Where do you think the charm of attracting Ms. Chung Il’s mind is?

“Fans seem to have seen through drama characters, I read all the fan meeting message cards, but in common we all say” smile is nice “”

– What kind of impression do Japanese fans have?

“There are many active fans in Korea, but Japanese fans will often listen to the story and will watch over like a mother, because they support us even in invisible places, It’s warm and gentle. “

– It looks calmer than age, but what kind of personality do you have?

“There are times when it is bright like something like Yuno of” Kicking High Kick! “And there are times like Iljime.While the range of emotions is wide, I’m working on mind control recently, but mostly it is bright (lol)”

– It is a very friendly and soft image, but have you been mad recently?

“I am not angry, but I am worried about how to return in the first time to meet Japanese fans who are always supporting me at fan meetings in Japan and I am very sensitive It was supposed to be. “

– My friend Lee Min-ho seems to have thought that Jeong Il ‘s first impression “face is a woman”, but what do you think of asking it? How do you think Mr. Chun · Il thinks Min-ho?

“Well, I am manly (lol). We are friends, we respect each other’s privacy.Minho is a manly, frank and heart-loving person.”

– At the fan meeting, you mentioned that there were two people who really liked you like this, but when are you talking about it? Maybe, is it progressive?

“In the past, first love is at high school one year, the second is … not progressive now”

– What happens when you fall in love?

“It is difficult to express myself, you have to ask someone else (laugh)”

– Is there an ideal date, ideal type?

“I never thought of an ideal date, the ideal type will change over time, but recently, people who have consideration, those who understand work and wait, will comfort me People, friendly people are ideal. “

– Has the next work decided?

“I am picking from a number of movies and dramas.We want to do both movies and dramas if the schedule agrees.I think I can see you all in good work early without leaving a blank period too much “

Jung Yi was a honest and courteous young man who still feels like a boy. As an actor, he is growing as well as his height. As for “Bill Irujimetsu”, although the evaluation of the drama was various, the thing which this work brought to Jeon · il was large, and it became one size larger as an actor.

“I would like to appear in a lot of works without choosing works,” but I was impressed with the desire to see another figure as soon as possible. It is the actor who I want you to keep growing like this with the natural body you twinkle.

In addition, “Chiru Il” starring “Bishojo Irujimen” is broadcasting from 7:50 pm every Saturday and Sunday at KNTV on CS broadcasting. We have also decided on the encore broadcast in October.

Jung II-woo worked so hard preparing for both this press conference and his first Japanese Fan Meet.  He worried a lot!  Because it was his First Fan Meet to be held in a different country, he wanted to leave a really good impression.

Then the totally unexpected happened! Jung II-woo presented all members of the press with a hand towel that was hand dyed by his mom!  Imagine that!!!  What a sweet gesture!  He had previously signed each towel as well.  They were impressed!!!

Eur | 2009.06.25  Cr. Ilwoostory Japan

In 2006, he made his debut in the movie “Quiet World”. In a popular situation comedy “exceptionally high kick!”, The sports utility in outstanding looks, fighting strength is strong, women take a popularity by acting Lee Yunho, who is motivated to study but not large. Afterwards, Jun Il, who is a good-looking actor who is expected to break the most in 2009, such as being selected as the protagonist of the fusion period drama “Bizarre Irujima”. Such being the first time he came to Japan with fullness, the first time I visit Japan, I am doing my first fan meeting, and so many media that visited the interview were also enthusiastic! It is!

In the case of
– First of all, do you feel?
“This time, I am very nervous because of my first fan meeting, and on the other hand I am excited, but it was a very short period of time but I did my best to prepare for the fans I’d like you to enjoy it pleasantly. “

– Have you ever stayed in Japan?
“Yes, I have been to Japan about 5 times so far, last year I took a photo album in Tokyo and after the filming of the drama ‘Unstoppable High Kick!’ Finished, the staff and performers’ people I also went to play in Fukushima, and I also did a drama ‘The Return of Iljimae’ shoot at Tsushima. “

– What is the best deciding factor to appear in the drama “The Return of Iljimae”? Please tell us which parts you will be attracted to decide on appearance when you decide to appear in the work in the future.
“By appeared in the drama” Kicking High Kick! “, I received a lot of love from a lot of people, but I realized that there are many parts that I do not reach myself while photographing this work So after photographing the movie “My love” I went into college and thought that I should learn English and Japanese and fulfill the inner aspects of myself.  I have been doing that for a period of one year blank period .
And this time, it is the reason why I chose this role called Iljimée, but the drama “High Kick! “From Kim Byung-uk’s director,” It is a chance that you should go to the fans’ director and learn lots of things “. It happened to be a private seat, I met a fan director, and got a story about the drama “The Return of Iljimae”. When you start shooting, the director is only to get angry. I had a hard time and experienced a trial, but I think that I could grow up a notch through this drama. So, I really appreciate your fans.
And because it is a reason to decide the appearance, my profession is an actor, so I do not think that I want to do more in the work. I hope to continue working with wonderful directors, wonderful writers and wonderful actor seniors. If there is opportunity to appear in many works, I would like to see everyone through the work. “

– I was challenged by drama “The Return of Iljimae” such as sword fighting, action, love scenes etc, but please let me know if there are scenes remaining in shooting episodes or impressions.
“First of all it was an episode, but when I visited Japan for shooting, the Japanese people who came to see the shooting site said” Ah, Iris Jim! Iru Jima! “At that time, Because the name is “Il”, I thought to you that I was calling my name “I really appreciate it!” I told you later that I was called the name of the role (laugh).
Next is the scene that is left in the impression, the thing that I like the most is the 16th episode. There is a scene where Irajima is changed into a very cold personality thought that Wol-hee who is a thought was dead, but I like the action and voice tone at that time, the performance very much. “

– Were you trained to take action scenes?
“I practiced at the action school for about a month before entering the shooting of the drama.I also had a lot of Aikido and sports etc. when I was a little, I think that experience was also helpful. It remained in memory. “

– It was full of love scenes too.
“Ah ~, love scene … ^^; (lol) Because the fan director liked love scenes, it was quite a lot, even if it was not in the script,” Oi, Iljimae, make a quick tutuu “and improvise there was sometimes a love scene entering it. “

– What did you prepare for playing a love scene? Did you have any problems with NG?
“I think that love scenes are one of the acting, because Yoon Jin-soo of the opponent took a good lead, so I was able to do without any problems ^ ^”

– A lot of people have been played by Iljimae who is a national hero of Korea so far, but have you tried to make efforts for playing your own Iljimae?
“I tried to faithfully play Iljimé drawn by Ko Woo-young’s original work.The fans must not take out the image of Lee Yunho of the drama” Fantastic high kick! “, Extreme story, He was told not to show even a smile.In addition, director Fan said, “There are no born heroes, only those who gain step by step and add the last barrier will become heroes. I thought that every scene is a gateway and pioneer themselves. “Even though I made a voice tone or expression, I truly did my best and hoped for it.”
– What role are you most similar to Jung Il himself in the past performances?
“I think that all the roles I’ve played so far are myself, but it was the role of Lee Yunho of the drama ‘Unstoppable high kick!’ That was played the most relaxed so far, It was very delicate in pronunciation and vocalization, so when I was playing Ji Woo in the movie “My love”, I thought about supplementing that part. “

– Do you have a role you would like to play from now?
“I’ve been taking photographs of historical plays for nearly a year, so I’d like to take a picture in the city center this time (laugh), so I would like to challenge the mini series of contemporary dramas.In addition, Because the character of “Iljimae” is a very heavy character, I’d like to play a bright and distinctive character like Lee Yunho of the drama “Unstoppable High Kick!”

– Please tell me your own strengths and weaknesses.
“People around me think that their thoughts are straight, they are firmly told, they seem to think thoroughly as they say” Is not it too much to spare? “The disadvantages are simple Because there is something there is a point where the idea goes away and goes over here and there are advantages, but it is also a disadvantage, but it is a place to laugh a lot Also said “smile without contents” I will (lol) “

– What do you think about the impression of Japanese people, that they are popular in Japan?
“What I was surprised about when I first started in Japan was that people in Japan were very moved by such things as considering people and being very humble and thinking for others. , I have a very good impression … I am popular in Japan so much (laugh) Thank you Thank you, I think I would like to do my best in the future “

– Finally message to the fans.
“This time, I also came up with the publicity of the drama ‘Bishoiru Irujimen.’ Since then I thought that I would like to see all the Japanese fans since the drama ‘I thought! High Kick!’ I am glad that I am truly honored to be able to meet the Japanese people indeed and I am glad that I will continue to climb one by one step by step, I would like to meet the expectations of all the fans.We thank you very much (for the last in Japanese) Thank you very much for everything!

During the press conference, Jung Il seemed to be considerably nervous at the first interview, such as pointing downwards when answering questions to reporters, but in the last photo session the double piece jumped out, He also showed me a relaxing appearance.

And then …, the surprise to the press at the end (laugh). He gave us a hand towel that was made with handmade Korean natural vegetable dyed handmade by Mr. Jung II-woo’s mom handed for him. (Iljime’s plum pattern Ver. And Jung Il’s photo & sign print Ver. And two kinds) We conveyed how much parents of Jung Il thinks of him carefully.Mr. Jung Il who was a very young man with both appearance and content. The next work is going to be public soon, I’d like to expect much from the future! It is! It is!
At the fan meeting after the press conference, it was done with a lot of contents, including a talk show, a biwa performance, a tea ceremony, a present of love-holding goods, a handshake party, a ballad song, and so on, with a cute attraction of Mr. Jung Il Smile, the event ended after about two and a half hours.


 

Japanese female reporter in a coma state?  Jung II-woo from “The Return of Iljimae” from the press conference of Japan’s first fan meeting held a lively site
JPNews | 2009/06/23   Cr. Ilwoostory Japan

Even though I and my younger brother are just cute as they are, Nuna is my girl ~ ♪

Jeong il of a fresh charm born in 1987 captured the hearts of Japanese sister fans with a refreshing smile.

On the last 20th, Tokyo Shinkababa Studio Coast. Next to the ocean, Japan’s first fan meeting of Korean national champion Jung Yi, 21 years old (Japan age) famous for event places such as BoA, Kumi Kumi and other concerts are held in summer was held.

<Returned Imei plum (kntv)> Jeong il, who is the first public director and a Japanese fan to meet for the first time, seemed quite nervous from the meeting at the fan meeting for two hours.

■ Are you trembling? Press conference place

The black hair which had eyebrows in a slim suit unified with black is a figure that makes the line shine even more beautiful thin beautiful line.

He seemed to be keen on practicing Japanese, but he also forgotten a very nervous greeting at the press conference hall. However, ‘laugh (워 여워 워)’ has repeatedly occurred among reporters on the eyes that disappears thinner and beautiful mouth. ”

Jung Yeo, who came back to Japan for about 5 times in Japan as a result of the filming and situational comedy <KICKIKI KIKI HIGH KICK> and Fukuoka traveling <Ichitai plum> returning to Tsushima When the shooting husband picked up ‘Iljimée ~’ and Ichige Ume When I called, he also talked about the episode that he was happy to think that he called his name ‘il’.

When asking about the cause of his popularity, saying that it seems to be considerate in the impression of Japan and the Japanese, it said it is embarrassing as “Do I have popularity?”

One word One thoughtfully thoughtful answer <High Kicks Expectingly> The figure of Yuno has no trace, and you can see the seriousness of <Ichibei plums that came back>. Acting for the first time in about two years is also an act, but it is a feeling that I personally became much more mature.

By the way, what was even more surprising was that we gave reporters a gift and took out the scarf that Jeong-il’s mother hand-printed directly. It was common for reporters to divide some reply items related to the event to reporters at a press conference hall, but it was the first time to receive a gift that the entertainer’s mother made directly. Japanese reporters also looked pretty impressed.

■ Female reporters The soul has been removed Exciting event

Ninety percent of reporters who came this day were female reporters and they were pretty excited from the time Jeon Il appeared before the press conference before the press conference. If it is older sister ‘Cute (워 여워)’ came to be seen here and there in the form of Jung Yi who seems to be protective instinct.

The thing that made female reporter more excited here is the fact that Jeon · Il directly delivered this scarf, demonstrated the service to shake hands! A 20 – year female reporter who was in the seat next to me was unable to hide the excitement, practicing ‘do your best’ in Korean and approaching Jeon Il.

After the press conference was finished, some people looked exaggerated at a glance very much like the facial expression of Jung Yi’s face behind the stage and cautiously asked, “Are you going to be Mr. Chung Il’s mother?” Again it was. In Korea, it is said that Korea Fan Meeting has been devoted to Korean fan meetings and customized scarfs in Japan due to customs that customers do not send by hand if visitors come to their homes.

Anyway, Jeong il, who took the hearts of female reporters at a press conference hall, will sit nearly all female reporters at the press seat despite being a peaceful Saturday afternoon, where the performance starts about an hour after the press conference is over I succeeded in doing.

Is Lee Min-ho my best friend? While watching each other during the middle and high era

And at 3 pm, the flashy stage of Jeong Il Japan’s first fan meeting finally came.

Whether Chung Il was much more stable than the press conference, 100% of the opening greetings were used in Japanese and received great applause. I talked quite concretely today’s feelings, appreciation feelings etc. in Japanese, which is not a simple self-introduction, and I could see that he tried a lot of effort.

He started talking about his debut for not being able to sleep for about 3 to 4 days, and he began talking about it during his debut work, and <thought high kick> saw a big traffic accident when I saw the audition, but I wanted to appear in the concussion situation for how long Was it truly misunderstood, let me tell the episode that my mother replied “Furlut obstetrics and gynecology” to the question “where do you know this place?” There is a laugh at the audience.

There was also a question about Lee Min-ho at Jung Il who raised the name with Lee Min-ho at the notable star in 2009, but now it is going back and forth between the houses and playing the game ‘Winning’, Samcheong-dong To make a bomb remark that it was not intimate just to be alert by listening to the rumor that ‘There is a child better with each other’ during the middle and high school period though it is ‘friendly’ to walk on Dong and Akugyo I also made it.

■ Chong · Ilu is a herbivory man · Beautiful cafe good ~

Jeong Il who did a lot of preparations for this day also saw the ‘Biwa’ performance of an unusual instrument, learned the Korean traditional tea ceremony and tea ceremony (to drink tea and eat sweets), fans I also tell you. It was a figure which I thought deeply about what kind of story it should be close to Japanese and Japanese people.

During the questions received during the question time of the fans, Tokyo has a beautiful cafe and stylish clothes many ‘Daikanyama’ where Tokyo likes to recommend in Tokyo and Seoul, Sole village with many beautiful cafes in Seoul, Samcheong-dong (Recommended Samcheong-dong), Apgujeong (Ak-jong) rodeo recommended.

It is doubtful that the ‘adorable man’ recommends ‘Cafe beautiful’ throughout many towns ‘noodles grazing man?’

He said that he likes clothes, saying that he can not drink, he said that he likes beautiful cafes, and that the skin is also white like porcelain is increasingly suspected. By the way the problem is to share this schedule with my best friend Lee Min-ho. A young celebrity thinks ‘a little while ago’ at that time.

■ All-in-one fan meeting! Aichi product large release ~

Even though the highlight of fan meeting was anything, it was ‘a love storage presentation’ time. It is an essential course if it is fan meeting, but it is because the scale was exceptional.

Elegantly even only that 12 items including clothes, hats, hats, favorite CDs, favorite novels ‘Norwegian Wood’, bracelets bought directly in Switzerland, scarves with mom handprints directly However, 10 cushions filled with photos and signatures, up to 10 Korean traditional porcelain boxes got bigger.

But this was not the only one. Jeong il cried as ‘Please wait a minute’ and began to put out further necklaces, bracelets, rings, anklets and so on that had been attached to the body. This is truly the first time ever ‘raise everyone’ parade. If it is not good, at the audience seat ‘Are you really okay? ‘It is enough to tell the story.

Finally I gave a tremendous love-store when I got the gifts I gave to all 500 people who participated in this day’s seat with a handshake party.

I was able to understand how much he hoped for the first fan meeting in Japan with contents of fan meeting and love goods and wanted to convey thanks to those who participated.

Fact In fact, if you go to the fan meeting of the Korean style star of about 10,000 yen, there are many cases where gifts are full of keyholders, photos, pamphlets and villas related to related products. Even when huge outrageous spicy ramen comes out …

Of course fans are happy people only by seeing the face of the star even if there is nothing like a gift, but often feel at all if you see a humble star who does not know what to do and appreciate like this sometimes.

I felt that Japanese Korean fan meeting would be a little warmer if there was such a thankful heart when I first made a fan meeting, humble heart.

Will Chong · Il get even more famous next time asking Japan, can you see the same smile, same heart? All female reporters who gave time like Saturday afternoon like golden may have been the same idea.

 

 

 

Jung II-woo’s First Japanese Fan Meet “Secret Time in Japan”

2009 JIW Japan Fan Meet

June 20, 2009

Jung II-woo is such a hard worker.   He spent a lot of time thinking about and preparing to meet his Japanese Fans!  He knew because it was the first time it had to be very special. So he wrote (with support) a text for his fans and practiced reading it in Japanese, so he could read it outloud that day.

He practiced playing the Biwa so he could play it for his fans.  He played three songs and I guess he sang in one of them too.   He also practiced singing.  Singing is really hard work for Jung II-woo. Still…he did the the best he could and sang: “사랑 해요 (I Love You) – Simply Sunday” and “사랑해 도 될역ance (You May Love Me) – 유리 상자 (Yurisangja)” in a medley.

Jung II-woo is also so kind.  As if his autographed photograph was not enough, he gave many unique and original gifts to some of the fans.   Some were crafted by his mom!!!  Can you imagine!!!  These were some of his gifts:

My favorite hat and parka                                                                                                                 The program when I first performed in high school,                                                                    My favorite CD (with a sign)                                                                                                                  My favorite book (Haruki Murakami)
Three types of scarves printed with plum blossoms and plum blossoms, which are traditional Korean dyes by Jung II-woo’s mom! Autographed by Jung II-woo- 12 people
Cushions made by his mom -10 people
Handmade Korean traditional craft box by his mom (signed on the back of the lid) 10 people
Necklace worn, ring, bracelet, Missanga 4 people

What a sweetheart!  I guess he also brought things from Switzerland and gave them out…!!!?

These were the gifts that someone got:

This is the account of what happened during the Fan Meet by a fan.  Because it was translated from Korean to Japanese and then to English it is well…pretty messed up!  But you can get a gist of what happened on that day and in what order…  Cr. ILwoostory Japan.

I tried really hard finding quality footage of this Fan Meet…but I am hindered by the fact that I do not speak Japanese.  (I tried doing a search in Japanese but had no luck.)  If you have any idea of one in YouTube would you please let me know?  However…!!!   I did find some very raw videos of him practicing Japanese, practicing singing, playing the Biwa, etc. in DCILwoo.  As far as I can tell these videos were shown during the Fan Meet and a  Fan captured them!  To that Fan…Thank you!  If it wasn’t because of you, I would have nothing to show!!!

 

These are the photos I have found so far.  I will continue to add as I find more.                Cr. On photos and DCIlwoo.

WITAT

When I read this the first time:

“I wanted to make an event centered on fans rather than an event centered on me. I brought a lot of gifts and I wrote the signs all night, for three days. I prepared it without going to bed as much as a week, so it was serious in that way.”

It made me cry!  I just could not believe that he would care so much…that he would be so kind.  He does not have to do any of that and people would still love him.  Yet his effort, to go beyond the beautiful image he naturally has is what draws me like magnet to him.  That …wanting to do his best, to be a better actor, to sing even though he can barely do it, to treat people really well…this is what makes this man so special!

It was so great finding those short little fan made videos!  And the account by the fan…made me feel like I was there.  It was really sweet and moving!  I pray with all my strength that some day I will get to enjoy seeing him live…shaking his hand and looking at him smile down at me…

This just gave a great idea for a new section. A Fan section…where I can post accounts written by fans of meeting him, like “testimonials” and  gifts offers and artwork made for him.  Right now there are a lot of fans very motivated drawing him after he posted the drawing of one of his fans in his profile photo in his account.  That’s the power he has…the power of his love!

 

 

Jung II-woo last photos with long hair.

2009

Some of you are probably happy to see him back with short hair.   I agree he does look better with short hair.  Still, it is very likely that that was it for him in long hair like that.  And sometimes he looked amazing!!!  Like the first photo of this group…so gorgeous!!!  Enjoy these, the last photos of him in his delightful black mane!  (For now…?)                    Cr.
