Chun Jung-myung goes gangster for Blue Salt
by javabeans
Blue Salt is the film starring Song Kang-ho as a retired mobster and Shin Se-kyung as a mysterious assassin who approaches him in order to kill him. Now the film has added Chun Jung-myung, most recently of Cinderella’s Sister.
Chun’s character has always stuck by Song Kang-ho’s side, both when he was a mobster and after he retired. Staunchly loyal, he grows suspicious of the girl’s motives and struggles to protect his boss, who starts to develop “special feelings” for Shin Se-kyung.
This’ll give Chun a chance to explore his tough side; despite his boyish appearance, he’s got a lot of intensity to his acting, and his character will sport a scar on his eye. I hope this will be a bigger success for him than Cinderella’s Sister, which had the solid ratings but didn’t give him an opportunity to really do what he can do, since it kept his character shut up and off to the side. (What a waste!) And despite the image above, we know that he’s capable of looking tough (just as long as he doesn’t flash his smile).
Blue Salt begins filming later this summer.

Oh!! Yay! I'm so glad he has the chance to do more.
CS made me go crazy with all the wasted potential. There was so much more that could have been done with everything and everyone.
Looks forward to this.
Meanwhile, I will gaze upon his smile (#^.^#)

YES.
To everything.
CJM is fabulous. This will definitely be a nice change from that frustratingly masochistic, self-sacrificing character we suffered through in CS. Not that I didn't drool whenever I saw him, but there's only so many pained expressions I can take on his lovely face.

When I read "his character will sport a scar on his eye"... immediately thought scar face from personal taste. LOL I'm sure he'll be sporting it better though. ;D

Yea.. the minute he smiles I will lose all concentration. On a side note I find it creepy that Shin Se Kyung is playing opposite Song Kang Ho. Not due to talent levels (I don't think I've seen her in anything) but due to the age difference. But then again Korean action movies (and probs most action movies) never tend to have age appropriate female actresses.

its hard to picture him not smiling throughout the WHOLE drama to maintain his tough image, so I think hes going to create this evil smirk that'll be just as adorable XD

I melt when he smiles in "What's Up Fox". As much as I want to watch him in Cinderella Sister, I gave up due to the angst... too much for me.
He has such a baby face; I am looking forward to seeing him act in a brusque role. I heard he was called 'Devil' when he was in military service so he had some practice.

yay, so happy that cjm will be filming in another movie. it'll be interesting to see him in a different kind of character because he's done well in all his past works. and i agree, as long as he doesn't flash that cute affecting smile of his, it'll be fine.

But I like his smile! So adorable even at this age.
Although his character in CS is no good, he is so handsome in that drama. I just love to watch his scenes in CS.
Not sure how the scar will appear on his face in this new movie! But I think he should be a pretty good action movie actor.

I'm excited for this film, but I have to agree that Shin Se Kyung being so much younger than Song Kang Ho might distract me a little bit. On the other hand, I like Chun Jung Myung the best when he's serious (even though I love that smile of his), so this role is perfect.
