SELECTED POSTS
This page, NEWS & UPDATES which is
actually the index page of this website has
grown into a huge database of my almost
daily ramblings of all stuff I hold dear to
my heart, including gossips of the most
sordid kind. For your convenience, I have
posted a list of posts which I thought is
pretty informative in my own way that you
might find interesting. The list itself may
be long but those selected few are the ones
I thought drives home the point I wanted to
make. Do check them out in
MY POINT IS [Comments & Opinions].
SERIES' SUMMARIES
Sometime in 2004 I began
reviewing selected
series in an episode by
episode way, where I
called these reviews
EPISODIC THOUGHTS.
These thoughts are
mostly summaries of each
and every episode with
my opinion of that
episode included in it
as well. I may not
provide the most in
depth summaries but I am
very proud of the fact
that I could keep the
writing on such a long
winded basis each and
every night for the
entirety of the series.
I don't do this for each
and every series though
because it kills a lot
of brain cells, mine as
well as fellow netizens
who often joined in the
discussion by posting
informative stuff. These
thoughts are still open
for feedback and
discussion. Do check
them all out in
REVIEWS where it is
indicated with an
[E]
next to my name.
OFFBEAT STUFF
There is this one
section in here that
features offbeat stuff
that are not
entertainment based. The
section is known as
FUNN STUFF
[COMMENTS & OPINIONS].
PERSONAL FAVOURITES
There are 3 sections in
here that contain my
personal favourites of
all kinds.
THE DDGs [COMMENTS
& OPINIONS] which
features specially made
websites by myself with
info & all related stuff
of my favourite stars or
stars I like to talk

MEDIA & MUSIC FILES
[DOWNLOADS]

VODs and music files,

from Chinese & Korean
dramas & movies and some
of which I am hosting
for my net friends and

and I.

Jewel In The Palace : The Actors Behind The Characters Permanent link ▫ ▫
Saw these in my local Chinese newspaper and I thought all of you who are now watching Jewel In The Palace may be interested to see the real actors behind some of the more well known characters. I am sure all of them do not need any introduction so I'll just post the thumbnails. Click on them and there is also a short article on each of them. Unfortunately I do not know how to read Chinese so you need to read them yourselves. Any brief translation will be much appreciated. Just post it using Post A Comment feature.
I am sure most of them had plastic surgery, either to the eyes or the nose. But you must admit they look very natural and Chinese. Lee Young Ae (Jang Geum) is so pretty but looks older outside the series. The little Jang Geum looks older now but also very pretty. The actress who played Madam Cheng (Jung) is so flamboyant and colourful as well as lively in person (seen an nterview of her, very energetic lady despite her age) whilst the actresses who played Han and Choi both looked surprisingly so young in real life. I suspect they are probably not much older than Lee Young Aei herself! Most shocking was Choi, so very young. Actress who played Kam Ying looks so happy in that scan unlike her character in the series, so gloomy. And I was very surprised to find out she is way older than 20 plus that is her characters in the series! I am neutral on the girl who played Lin Sang (can't stand her scenes). Ji Jin Hee is handsome. No other comments BUT the emperor was a bit disappointing. Looks very different in person.
Anyway how old or young some may be? Check out the source with their full filmography and pictures. Wonder what they eat? All look so much younger than their real age!
Hong Ri Na (Kam Ying, abt early 20s) born on February 07, 1968 (37 yrs old! - looks young)
Lee Young Ae (Jang Geum, 20) born on January 31, 1971 (34 rys old! Looks older but not as in her real age)
Ji Jin Hee (Ming Jun Ho, I think, abt 26) born on June 24, 1973 (32 yrs old)
Gyeon Mi Ri (Choi, probably late 30s or early 40s) born on September 19, 1964 (41 yrs old - look very young and in person)
Yang Mi Kyung (Han, probably late 30s or early 40s) born on July 25, 1961 (44 yrs old - looks younger than her real age)
Im Ho (Emperor, probably late 30s or early 40s) born on 27 January 1970 (35 yrs)
Park Eun Hye (Lin Sang, 20) born on 21 February 1978 (27 yrs old)
I guess this is what it is meant by acting. You transform yourself into that character. I can't recognise half of them in here if I were to see them in person.
More info & scans at SPCNET Forums. But warning, major spoilers in there.
Just 2 quick questions though.
Anyone who is so enchanted by this series that actually went out to buy the costume, as in I think called Han Bok? And where can I download the mandarin version of the themesong?
