[Article] Hyung Jun at 'Glowing She!' First Drama Shooting

Much much thanks to Honeyeee for doing the translation of this article over at LOVE501.com FB page.

I'm so happy about this new project of Hyung Jun. Though the drama will be on cable, I hope for the huge success for this drama.

The youngest of SS501 has tried almost everything dancing, singing, DJing, MCing, musical play, modeling and tv acting. He's young and still can do a lot more. Fighting, Hyung Jun!

Btw, in this article, Honeyeee translated the drama title to 'Glowing She!' while earlier and in the previous articles I posted and even on the label of this post I used 'She's Completely Insane'. Hee, don't know which is which but whatever is the title, surely I will be looking forward to this. ^^

In the drama, Kim Hyung Jun plays a haggard topstar, Kang Min, and have successfully completes his first shoot on the 19th in a hospital in Seoul. On this day, the shooting of the scene involves Kang Min seeking medical consultation in the hospital due to an unexpected discomfort in his body.

After the first shoot, Kim Hyung Jun said "I do not want to be someone who did not put in effort although i am not sure if i did well. Since this is my first challenge as an actor, i tend to be very careful when i am infront of the camera. Although I had a lot of difficulties, it was much more interesting than i thought."

He also revealed that "Despite me lacking in a lot of areas, directors and senior actors were very considerate and kind, hence i was able to follow along. In future, I will do lots of preparation and work harder to show a better better work, do my best and greet everyone with an interesting drama.

[Article] Hyung Jun's Tweet in Hospital Gown

Much thanks to Honeyeee for doing the translation of this news on LOVE501.com FB page. The article was lifted from OSEN's website after Hyung Jun tweeted a photo of him in a hospital gown.

Well, the news article didn't say why he's in a patient gown so we could only guess if this is for the drama, or our cute Hyung Jun is making fun again or he's really sick (in which many I read that in some sites that they're worried because he's getting thin because of the diet he's doing for the upcoming drama). But from Kyu Jong's tweet to Hyung Jun you can probably guess the answer. Check the English translation of Kyu Jong's reply after this article.
