[TRANS] 150508 In-Seok (SHU-I) & Tae Hoon (CODE-V) Mention Yunho for “Let’s Meet at the Intl Market”


◆ In the Vietnam War scene, TVXQ’s Yunho appears, what do you think of it?

In Seok (Shu-i): The senior who is always showing off cool songs and dances in Japan, is also good at acting! I was impressed. Of course, as Yunho is from Gwangju, I had the thought that movie’s stage (setting), Busan and dialect would be entirely different, but I was surprised as the Busan dialect was also used there

Tae Hoon (CODE-V): I had thought of U-Know senior who is normally fixed as a cool senior, but in the movie, he showed a totally different image, I thought he was professional, as expected.

In-Seok: In U-Know Yunho’s movie scene, I was expecting to see if he would sing a TVXQ song, but as expected, it wasn’t! (laughs) I wanted (to hear) ANDROID (Tohoshinki’s July 11 2012 single)! I like it a lot.1

[TRANS] 150502 ‘Ode to My Family’ Director Yoon Je-Kyoon’s Mentioned Yunho in his Interview with Vogue Japan

`Ode to My Father’, a film in which TVXQ’s Yunho, who also has an active career as an actor, makes an appearance, opens May 16th. Director Yoon Je-Kyoon has responded to our interview during his recent visit to Japan.
TVXQ’s Yunho, whom Vogue Japan has covered many times in the past. debuts on screen (with ‘Ode to My Family’). Though he plays a cameo role that appears briefly, his outstanding presence gives a long-lasting impression. This would owe to the fact that he has been steadily honing his skills as an actor, recently through dramas such as `Queen of Ambition’ and ‘Night Watchmen’s Journal’.

Yunho gives an impassioned performance as famed Korean singer Nam Jin, using dialect. The protagonist Duksoo meets Nam Jin during his dispatchment to Vietnam, and becomes a lifelong fan of his. Amidst the solemn historical background that is the Vietnam War, the mood of the film lightens up in an instant as Nam Jin appears, with his jokes and sprightly use of dialect. We first asked the director about Yunho, who was given the role of such a charming character.

[NEWS] 150325 “The Admiral” and “Ode to My Father” Achieve Box Office Success in North America


“The Admiral” and “Ode to My Father” Achieve Box Office Success in North America
The Korean films “The Admiral” and “Ode to My Father” were both amongst the top ten highest-grossing foreign films in North America in 2014.

“The Admiral” brought in $2,590,000 USD in North American box office sales, while “Ode to My Father” earned $2,280,000 USD.

This is the first time in eight years that a Korean film has seized a spot on the list of the top ten foreign films in North America. The last film to do so was “The Host,” which came in seventh place in 2007. It is also the first time ever that two Korean films have appeared on the list in one year.

“The Admiral” was released in North America two weeks after it opened in Korea, and “Ode to My Father” appeared in North American theaters only a week after it premiered in Korea. According to a representative of CJ E&M, the company that distributed the films to North America, this meant that domestic Korean marketing for the films was able to influence North American audiences. Rather than having to wait several months after being exposed to Korean advertisements, North Americans were able to see the film almost right away in local theaters.

Did you get the chance to see these films in a theater near you?

[TRANS] 150112 U-Know Yunho, The Jewel Uncovered in 'Gukje Market'


Although (the role) was small, it shone/glittered. The U-know Yunho in movie 'Gukje Market' was like the gem/jewel "specially gained" by coincidence while going to shop for groceries. Although he made a surprise appreance as a cameo in thelatterhalf of the movie, he made the 10 minutes he appeared on the screen squarely into one of his own, and displayed his sense of presence. While successfully showcasing his flavourful dialect in a fluent manner he added to the enjoyment of watching the movie as he displayed his singer senior's, Nam Jin's youthful times.

'Gukje Market' is looking at reaching 10 million ticket admissinons. -info about the other appealing points of the film omitted-

[TRANS] 150109 Kangin, "Although I have yet to watch 'Gukje Market', I am proud of Jung Yunho"

Kangin, “Although I have yet to watch ‘Gukje Market’, I am proud of Jung Yunho”
Kangin has expressed his affection for Jung Yunho.

In an interview with Newsen, Super Junior member, Kangin, who is announcing his arrival on the big screen as the lead character for the first time in his life through movie “Cat’s Funeral”, mentioned his fellow SM under-one-roof colleague, TVXQ member U-Know Yunho (Jung Yunho), who is also attempting the acting genre like himself.


In the midst of conveying his own thoughts on the so-called “SM curse” that a production will not be able to become a box office success if SM artistes appear in it, Kangin said, “In the past when Yunho appeared in ‘Yawang’, I called him and tried asking him Have you received Yawang’s script? I am really curious about the next episode / story. Can’t you let me know (what will happen next)?’ A production which one person thought was uninteresting can also possibly be seen as interesting to someone else. I don’t know (it is hard to define) the standard / criteria to measure success.”

On this, when we asked him if he had watched ‘Gukje Market’ which Jung Yunho appeared in, he added his sincere thoughts, “Actually, I have not been able to watch it yet. But I have thoughts of having to definitely watch it. (I know that Yunho) made a short appearance in the role of Nam Jin, and I heard that he really did well. Therefore, I am even more curious (about the movie). Just looking at that movie alone, it is really doing well, isn’t it? It is said that it will shortly surpass the 10-million tickets mark. Although it is not a production in which Yunho appears as the lead character,  I am personally proud that (Yunho) took part together in that type of huge film and he completed his part well.”

The Hollywood Reporter noted the success of “Ode to My Father” in a December 29 article titled “South Korea Box Office: Local Films Dominate, Hobbit Slips To Fourth Spot.”
Korea’s domestic film market was revitalized in 2014, with movies like “The Admiral: Roaring Currents” following the success of the 2013 release “Miracle in Cell Number 7.” “Ode to My Father” is the latest example of a film whose success is generating attention from film critics throughout the world.

[INTERVIEW] 141229 "Ode to My Father" Director Yoon Je-Kyoon's High Praise to Yunho


*Part not related to Yunho omitted

Yoon Je-kyoon also mentioned U-Know from TVXQ who made a cameo appearance as well as Kim Yoon-jin, Oh Dal-soo, Ra Mi-ran, Jang Yeong-nam and Jeong Jin-yeong. U-Know might sound random but he was the 'hidden card'.

"I wanted someone to play Nam Jin's younger character and it required a few things. He needed to know how to speak in the Jeolla dialect and needed to sing. So I looked at my list of singers and met U-Know for the first time. He is a great person. So polite. It would be a lie if I said I didn't have biased thoughts about singers who act. I always think acting comes before fame and U-Know was tested several times. He helped me break down the prejudice towards idol-actors but if I ever work with more of them again I will test them and give them a role that suits them".
