[Photo] Hyung Jun's New Look for His Upcoming Drama

Gone is chic and edgy top star Kang Min of 'Glowing She'. Next we are going to see Hyung Jun portray the role of a smart public service personnel named Jung Min Chae in ‘I Love You’ based on a popular comic by Kang Pool that has already been turned into a movie.

Jung Min Chae is naturally smart, and was accepted to Seoul National University (South Korea’s equivalent of Harvard) through his exceptional college entrance exam score. While he is still in school, he develops a game for his school’s game club and becomes a legendary figure within the game industry. Because Min Chae is so smart and talented, he seems like he would be the heir to a big company, but he actually has a tragic family history. While working as a public service personnel at the Community Service Center, Min Chae bickers with his co-worker Kim Yeon Ah (played by Kim Yoon Seo) and forms an adorable love line with her.

I guess next drama will be a challenging one for Hyung Jun. Not only that he will be with top veteran actors, his role in this drama is very different from the previous one. His versatility will be tested.

Hyung Jun will be successful as an actor. He is not my bias (my bias is Saengie and I love his personality and vocal), but I have to say that among all 5, his acting is the best, very natural, mature and into the role, i.e. you don't feel that he is KHB or acting.

I like how Hyung Jun attacked his role as Kang Min, really a great improvement from the last time I saw him acted. I like how he delivered his lines and gestures as Kang Min. Sometimes you really forget that he's Hyung Jun. On the other hand, Kyu Jong and Jung Min both have great eye expressions something that Hyung Jun needs to improve on. And I think Hyung Jun is really working hard for it. For that I'm really proud of him. They all have potential to be good actors. They are all working hard.

I know not everyone will agree but this is just my 2 cents. I don't have a bias among the members. I love them all.

Our Baby cleans up so well! I admit I miss them together, but they are doing fantastic solo work right now, and I'm really enjoying it. I think this is the opportunity to do everything they couldn't do as a group, so I'm happy to see them improve.

I think Hyung Jun has great potential as an actor. He wasn't the main lead "lead" in Sunshine Girl, but he did really well. I think he will do even better in this drama. Since it's cable drama, he isn't as exposed, but once he gets to do a national TV drama, he will truly shine^^ So proud of him!

I am Hyung Jun bias but I always felt that Jung Min & Kyu Jong are the better actors but lately while watching Hyung Jun in Glowing She, have realised that his acting is improving by leaps & bounds, especially his facial expressions, so love to watch them, agree with that he has to work on eye expressions. Hyung Jun has great potential as an actor. really wish him all the best in whatever he does

I wish one of 4 SS501's members will be in any voting of Kpop, not only Leader.
They are recognized not only by TS, but by by Korean people, like Kim Hyun Joong.
Of course Leader is Superstar and I love him so much.

SS501 members are recognised by the Korean public however HJL is the most recognised. Aside from that he has the most endorsements among the members so he's always in the public eye. Remember when sweet Kyu said that when he took a taxi one day the taxi-driver didn't know who he was until he mentioned Leader's name? I guess for all the Kpop voting they only choose the ones who are more media-exposed^^^

Agree.
But I'm sad to see the voting list including all 5 members of TVXQ/JYJ, many members of Big Bang, Suju.

I'm sooooo happy that he's doing well as an actor, specially because it's something he's very interested in. ^^

Hope our baby has an enjoyable time doing this drama although it's not a drama from a open channel as he wanted. But just like you said Liezle, this role will be a challenging for him, but he'll have a opportunity to gain experience and learn a lot with the veterans actors and start do his name as an actor.

I believe that all SS members can gain more recognition because they are very talented!=]

Sometimes I miss to see them together so bad. But when I see them developing so much individually I got strength to wait patiently their comeback as a group again.

btw, he's looking more healthy now he got some weight. I prefer him like this. ^^ baby Jun fighting!!
