Chun Jung-myung puts up his dukes in Vogue
by javabeans
Oh, it is GOOD to have Chun Jung-myung back from the army!
The actor is getting right back to work with a new drama (Cinderella’s Sister with Moon Geun-young and Seo Woo) and now a new fashion spread for Vogue. The concept portrays Chun as a mixed martial arts fighter, and the spread was shot over six hours.
Ever since his discharge, Chun had fielded numerous acting offers before settling on Cinderella’s Sister. He explains that he’s a different person now than he used to be (a common remark of men in their post-army careers) and said, “I’ve developed more ambitions about my work but also a sense of responsibility.” He also said, “In order to become a better actor, there are a lot of things I have to learn outside of acting.”
The photo spread and interview will be in the February issue of Vogue; starting January 25, the Vogue homepage will also be showing a video clip of Chun.

I can't agree more!!! It is AWESOME to have him back! And I can't wait to see him in Cinderella's Sister! Hmm, maybe I should catchup on his older stuff like Fashion 70s while I wait for the series to premiere.

Wow, today is Chun Jung-myung day for me thanks to JB and this article, and hjkomo and a certain "mud+rain=CJM stripping down to his skin" video clip, which is what I woke up to this morning. (Taohua, from what I saw in that clip, Fashion 70's is next on my list. YUM).
I've had a pretty good Monday, I must say! :-D

CJM and JJM were what made me watch Fashion 70s. But after a while even the presence of the 2 guys was not enough to make me sit thru the whole drama. At first I would press FF during the boring parts in each ep, but then it got really boring that I ended up skipping eps altogether and just watched the ending. So those who are going to watch this drama, prepare to be bored out of your wits. CJM and JJM may be hot guys but form without substance can be nauseatingly boring after a while.

Thanks for the warning. The name of the drama made me not want to watch it. I had a feeling it would be all style and no content.

Yum.
Started Fashion 70s today. Watched just the first ep.. I thought it was pretty good.. but I did hear that the story becomes makjang-ish toward the end.

Does "no hitting below the belt" apply on this one? I meant, those belts... too many belts...umm, ok, I'm not making any sense.

Yeah, I heard something about that when someone was explaining to me on why I should watch Fashion 70s. I'm going to have to hunt down that clip ;)
Edit: I see hjkomo has put up the link...LOL!

@15
IMO it would have been better if the story focused more on the fashion competition between the 2 female leads, but instead it focused more on the rich-girl-poor-girl exchanging places when they were young storyline that it became really makjang-ish (yeah, that's the right word, thanks @16) in the later eps.
i think also part of the reason i found the drama boring is Lee Yo Won. I first saw her in Daemang, and I thought it was her character in Daemang that made her act wooden. Fashion 70s made me realize that she really acts wooden. There were parts where she showed a little life and spunk, but for the most part she is lifeless. Just watching her drains all the energy out of me because of her lifelessness, so i can't imagine 2 hot guys falling in love with her!!!

Sometimes I hate it when actors have to go to the army. But when they come back, they come out looking better than ever! The maturity, the tan... the muscles.....
Thankfully he still looks young... not that 30 (31- Korean age) is old. Seo Woo is 25 (26), but if he gets paired with MGY, she's only 22 (23). Both females have baby faces that make them look a lot younger than they really are. So it helps that CJM still has somewhat of a baby-face so he won't look old for the girls.
First Go Soo's spread, now Chun Jung Myung... -sigh-
I like the first picture a lot... but I can't get rid of Go Soo High Cut wallpaper......... decisions, decisions. It's like deciding if I want cake or ice cream... both are yummy but you really can't have both. There's only room for one.

Hmm, I see what you mean about all the belts. Is he trying to show us he lost weight in the arny and can't keep his pants up now? I mean, really can't keep those pants up? Or was there a sale on belts, he got 3 for the price of 1?
Even without belts... he seems to have emerged from the army in very fine shape. I loved him in What's Up, Fox?

"Or was there a sale on belts, he got 3 for the price of 1?" too funny! hey, korean men (or women) can never wear too many accessories. ^^ it's an art form. and have you noticed that we're ALL focused on that part of his body? think that's accidental???

Sensually hot. Word.
CJM is one actor who really commands when he's on screen. Find an actor who can be HOT and CUTE at the same time. And all you have is Chun Jun Myung, our very own Chul Soo~~~

i just recently watched What's Up Fox (because if it's one thing I definitely trust about you JB, it's your pick of rom-com - or just romance - dramas!) and ohh, he's caught my attention! I'm so glad this happened at just the right time; him fresh from the army and soon to be in a new drama. Will keep an eye out for that :)

@epyc,
I've seen Goodbye Solo and enjoyed it very much. Mind you, it's not to everyone's taste. The writer is Noh Hee Kyung, who also did World We Lived In, More Beautiful than a Flower, Did We Really Love, Lie. The cast was fab, more an ensemble drama than "star power." Try a couple eps and see how you feel about it.

@20 I agree! I feel almost abused after seeing my favourite starts half-naked.
