[Article] Kim Hyun Joong & Oguri Shun to Meet on July 20

Finally the news that came out this afternoon has been translated by Ode on her blog. Much much thanks Ode!

As I tweeted earlier, two handsome men who portrayed Hanazawa Rui in Japanese manga 'Hana Yori Dango', Kim Hyung Joong of Korean and Oguri Shun of Japan will be meeting each other tomorrow afternoon in Seoul.

According to news the meeting is going to be private. How private could in it be no body knows. But I'm putting high hope that we will be seeing official photos from this meeting as well as lots of news tomorrow evening. Of course, I'm also looking forward to fancams and photos from shutterbugs of fan clubs.

Kim Hyun Joong & Oguri Shun to Meet on July 20

Korean to English translation by Ode /ss501ode.blogspot.com

Korea and Japan's fellow 'beauty boy representative icons' Kim Hyun Joong and Oguri Shun will be meeting up with each other. Both of them will be holding a meeting and conducting interviews together with several media presses on the 20th July in a restaurant somewhere in Kangnam, Shinsadong. They will be carrying out interviews with several media presses in a short timeframe, and it will be a secret meeting. This comfortable meeting will be held in order to encourage friendship, it will be on an undisclosed basis that outsiders cannot view. Korea and Japan's top stars Kim HyunJoong and Oguri Shun will be meeting for the first time, and this meeting of theirs will be one affinity shared just because of a same role from the same drama.

Because both of them are the individual pretty boy from Korean version of 'Boys over Flowers' and Japanese version of 'Boys over Flowers', this has attracted much attention.

Oguri Shun played the character Rui in Japanese original version of 'Boys over Flowers' whilst Kim Hyun Joong was the character JiHoo who was the Korean version of Rui in remade 'Boys over Flowers'. Oguri Shun was invited to come to Korea on the 19th in order to attend the "2010 Bucheon International Movie Festival" with his directed movie 'Surely Someday'. Before Oguri Shun's meeting with Kim Hyun Joong on the 20th, he carried out a public talk in Bucheon on the 19th afternoon.

On the other hand, Kim HyunJoong will be starring in upcoming new MBC drama 'Playful kiss' / 'It started with a kiss' while Oguri Shun had also met up with director Goo HyeSun who participated in the '2010 Yubari International Festival Movie Festival' in February.

LOL. What kind of secret meeting that the whole wide world is gettting to know?
Leader always wanted to meet Oguri Shun. I guess it's was his idea, and KeyEast makes it possible.

That is a very interesting happening between the two stars who shared the limelight in the same role but interpreted differently .This is a professional approach that fans should appreciate rather than fight and rant who is better between the two .

Wow, two of my fav stars. And Leader's wish to meet Oguri Shun is coming true. I also wonder how much does KeyEast has a hand in making this happen.

A secret meeting that only the content is secret. The meeting itself is not so secret when the news has spread out all over the internet.

Hope there will be lots of news on this, maybe fan accounts and fan vids.

OMG. 2 of my fave star. I am in the middle of watching Hana Kimi. Actually I am on the last 2 episodes and I was just wishing that Leader would fit in the same role as that of Oguri Shun if there will be a Korean version remake of Hana Kimi. Now they are meeting. I hope Ogur Shun will be an influence to Leader bec he is a very talented actor and now a director just like his father. Although Oguri Shun has more experienced bec of his family.

I also thought Leader should be Sano in Hana Kimi when I saw him do high jumps in WGM. He can jump so high.

Yay! My favorite Japanese actor, Oguri Shun, and Kim Hyun Joong?! Together in the same place! I loved Oguri Shun in Crows Zero, Hana Yori Dango, and Hana Kimi! A good start to the day [:

Hmm... It's seem like HJL always gets what he wants. He said before that he wants to meet Oguri Shun.

Another of leader's so called 'secret meeting' gets published all over by the press, and they even provided the location. LOL! I bet fans will flood that area to drool over the two national flower boys.

have the release the name of the 2nd lead male for Mischevous Kiss, the role of Ah Jin? Wouldn't it be great if Oguri plays that role??? All these so called "secret meetings" always has an underlying meaning to it. Just wishful thinking ... Would be nice to have an experience actor and someone w/ huge followers on board w/ KHJ. Whatcha think?

Lt said...

What are they going to talk about? If it's not work related, then what, chit chat? A tactical movement, maybe?..

Got to love KeyEast. Things are getting quite interesting these days.

got a confession to make: the reason why i watched BBF (Korea)was because of HYD(Japan)[of which i am a member of]; to compre the actors, the clothes, the story - who got the plus points? of course, BBF mostly got the god points ....except for the female lead, the Japanese female lead performed/looked better....
