I would probably make the same face if people made me read a french newspaper which dated back the 1940's. The accesories for this photoshoot are totally random...

Ugh I absolutely love Kang Ji Hwan. He is wonderful.

I love him more than Lee Min Ho /hidesfromfangirls

Dude's very good-looking. He's also a good actor but I've always been put off by his dramas due to their scripts or executions. Incarnation was alright; it had interesting premise, some interesting characters, and some excellent episodes but it suffered from spotty writing and characterizations. Kang Ji Hwan seriously needs to start picking better scripts (although I couldn't blame him for wanting to work with the writer-director duo of Giant and History of the Salaryman; don't know what happened to them this time).

I agree. I think he's one of the best looking actors out there, even better looking than Lee Min Ho! Only thing is his voice: it sounds nasal, like an elf.
Can't say I liked any of his dramas so far. Lied To Me was bleh, but that's the best out of all of them.

It's awful that his management company got revengeful like that. I don't think that would have happened in the U.S. (at least so blatantly). That's so unprofessional and immature. Let the guy work, for cryin' out loud.

He's one handsome man. I loved Incarnation of Money too. One of the few dramas I actually finished watching.

1) Loose the flower pants, thank you very much!
2) I really like Kang JH versatility in his roles/ his acting. Also I really really really like him PERIOD. I cant beleive that there was a time where I couldn't stand him even if it was a very very short time.

I wonder if he reads this site because it is Kang Ji-wan fan site for sure. I love this actor to bits,

He's been my eye candy for the past week. Some more photos

Thanks javabeans for the pretty!! Need my KJH fix after the end of Incarnation of Money which i loved. I loved him since Capital Scandal!! Looking forward to more of KJH...

I liked Incarnation of money a lot and he was totally awesome in it.....giving a wide range of emotions..

But for me, I loved him in Coffee House.....he really made that character interesting and unconventional....

hot! hot! hot!

He was and still is the first korean actor that I fell in love with (before slew of other actors followed!!!) and frankly speaking he is really a good actor as well, able to portray range and variety of emotions and acts. and like one one of the commentators said Lee Min Ho is way too young for me and but Kang is perfect for me. so I will have him any day....yum..slurp!!

One of my favorite actors! I love him.

I've been having my suspicions about his legal troubles for a while and now it seems even more likely things are as they seem. He wanted to break away from the funny rom-com image, but his agencies were afraid of losing money from him actually wanting versatility.

It does not feel like a coincidence that both series which they tried to stop him from doing where epic and darker works which would showcase his dramatic qualities instead of mainly his comedic ones.

I'm glad he made it through and glad the 'Incarnation of Money' team also fought to keep him. See, all it takes is some perseverance and not being bullied into giving up. I wish more people in the industry would fight for themselves and each other. I hope this series gets him more attention and many good offers now. Looking forward to the future.

Incarnation of Money wasn't quite my cup of tea, but am glad that he's doing well and I'm sure there's only up to go for him in his career right now. Let it be known to future agencies/drama productions that good talent like this shouldn't be wasted via such petty legal disputes.

He has a certain vulnerability to him when it's shown onscreen it's beautiful. Which is why I love 90 Days to death. I think he likes doing melos too ....If he does then he's in luck because kdramaland is in the mood for melodramas. And I think he's the perfect man for it.

OT: Just realized the new links on DB. Thanks !

To me he is like a Korean version of Leonardo Di Caprio. Much like Leo, he is one of the finest actors of his generation but unfortunately underrated. He should have won some serious acting awards by now.

Kang Ji Hwan is not the type that I consider as seriously handsome (though he is still an eye candy), but I strongly admire him for being a good actor, an actor who loves acting and takes pride in what he does.

As much I kind of enjoy Lie To Me, I think he was absolutely brilliant in Incarnation of Money and boy I'm glad and thankful that the director, writers (teehee... it's a team of incredible writers behind Giant and Salaryman) and producer stood by him in his time of great turmoil. I was waiting for the drama to hit past 20% rating, sadly it was up against rating monsters from KBS which proved to be impossible.

I pray that SBS would consider to acknowledge his talent by awarding him those Best Actor gong this year end. He deserves it.

Hope to see more of Kang Ji Hwan in a hugely explosively successful dramas in nearest future. Wish you best of luck and undying support, Ji Hwan Oppa.

my eyes hurt! so much prettiness. for someone who is very hunky, he seems to not minding looking ridiculous and goes all the way to make his character believable. i'm enjoying incarnation of money so much.

Me love KJH! Oppaaaaa....

At least this one is older than me. Hehe. Definitely more love for KJH than LMH, if that's the comparison going on here. Hee hee. I think Faith diminished my LMH love. KJH makes me love him even in terrible dramas...his acting and charm still shine through.

Very handsome. i do not like his voice either.

mine?

I'm a fangirl of just one actor, and that is Kang Ji Hwan! He's everything I admire in an actor. So genuine and honest and unafraid to be different. I used to be bothered about his voice, but now I love hearing it. He's an inspiration wrapped in a hot package! :3

Lee Cha Don was like a tailor fit role for Kang Ji Hwan. He was able to prove his versatility as an actor but I still hope to see him doing a romcom-action type role in a drama as he was so damn good in that genre and making his viewers lol :)

Dang I love this man. I even suffered through LTM for him.

But, I really like IOM so far...I'm way behind, only on ep 15, but I think he's awesome in this....I can't imagine anyone doing any better.

And, he's so adorable, besides.

READ THIS KJH-ssi... You're still FINE as wonderful wine.

KJH is and always will be my favourite Korean actor. I just think he has fantastic on-screen charisma. I love his voice and his smile. He's a wonderfully versatile actor. My favourite drama's with him are Capital Scandal and Hong Gil Dong.
Unfortunately he's also been in some dreadful drama's (like Lie To Me and Exhibition of Fireworks), but he's never bad in them. It's always the writing, directing etc. that's at fault.

I suffered Lie to me too, just because of our Ji Hwan...The moment he is onscreen, everything else shines along with him.♥♥ His voice is unique, soooo sexy and mischievous
Also I want to say Life is unfair because There is only One Kang Ji Hwan and many many of us who want him to be our sobangnim...♥♥

Well done Kang ji,
I think Gong Yoo is in the same page They are trying to do roles in dramas,They have talent and versatility.

Luv acting Kang Ji Hwan very much. He has a good character and can do anything about act. The best act he has, in LIE TO ME, with Yoon Eun Hyee, because they have a great chemistry and they have a good acting too. I don't see Korean Drama like that, it' s so funny, and romantic. i always re run the DVD. . . ;). After that, i watch his drama again, but not as good as Lie To Me. If Kang Ji Hwan have a popular drama again, make it with Yoon Eun Hyee. . . w e are waiting for. . .

I love Kang Ji-hwan.

I'm so glad that you're a fan of KJH. He's my #1 fave actor because of his acting skills. I do agree, he goes overboard at times in his comedy but I love it. That's his style. I don't think he's the greatest looking but he has charm, charisma and the guy sure can kiss too! I think he's adorkable too. Looking forward to his upcoming movies, hope they come out in the U.S. or at least with Eng subs!

Good acting! Refreshing, fantastic facial expressions shown in different scenes (whether serious, humorous, vengeance etc..) in all of his dramas watched. Hope to see more of KJH in other dramas. I've enjoyed both his LTM and IOM dramas and the chemistry with his leading ladies. Congrats!!
