Hi everyone!
Thanks Bo, glad that you enjoyed the pics!
Hi jojo! I really love JJH's character in Love Letter, so I always get excited whenever I hear that foreign fans have watched it.
How did you find it? You should watch JJH's recent dramas as well, Spotlight, The man who can't get married, and Dong Yi are all awesome.
Yesterday the Entertainment Program "Section TV" interviewed JJH and Han Hyo Joo filming the CF for the national census. JJH looks sooo good, and he was sooo funny! (as usual hehe ;D)
You can see the video here:

Reporter: JJH and HHJ, of the popular drama series Dong Yi, went out of the palace together. Let's go there now!
Reporter: At the centre of Gwanghwamun square, there was a couple that attracted the attention of many people. They were King Suk Jong Ji Jin Hee, and Dong Yi Han Hyo Joo.
PD: You finally got out of the palace!
JJH: But there's a palace right in front of us! ;D (Although it wasn't the palace where they film Dong Yi, they were still filming near a palace (the Gyeongbokgung Palace) ;D)
PD: Why are you here?
HHJ: We are the honorary ambassadors for promoting the census of the Korean population this year, and we are here to film the CF for it.
PD: You always wore Korean traditional clothes (Hanbok) in Dong Yi, and now you're wearing a formal suit. What do you think?
HHJ: Really good looking.
JJH: (Joking) What, the Korean traditional clothes? ;D
HHJ: (Shy) No, you wearing the suit like this...
JJH: Thank you ;D You're beautiful too.
HHJ: It's OK, you didn't need to say that... ;D
JJH: (Joking again) No, I felt like I had to say it... ;D ;D
Reporter: The filming took place in a happy atmosphere, and both made some NGs. Will they be able to succeed this time? Yes it was successful!
Reporter: There were many Japanese tourists who recognised JJH. They asked for his autograph, and were able to take photos with him.
HHJ to JJH: (Envious) There are many Japanese people who recognise you!
JJH: (Joking) But why did they call me Song Seung Hun (the actor from Autumn Story)? ;D ;D
(I laughed so much when I heard this, JJH is awesome!! He was able to be modest (about his popularity in Japan) and funny (by saying he's as handsome as Song Seung Hun, who has an image of being really handsome) at the same time ;D)
EDIT: To avoid any misunderstandings (hehe ;D ) I didn't mean to say that Song Seung Hun is more good looking than JJH - to me, JJH is the most handsome actor ever!
The joke was funny because the comment was so random - and he was able to respond to HHJ's comment in a funny and modest way. I also wrote more on this at Post #3241 on the next page.
Reporter: The filming moved to a quieter neighbourhood this time.
HHJ: Our comments are getting longer and longer.
Reporter: The two practice how they will say and act their lines, in order to not make any NGs.
Staff: But that action looks like you're singing to a Hip Hop song ;D
JJH: Yeah I agree, this is Hip Hop
Reporter: Will their hard practice pay off? Yes, they succed in one go!
Reporter: This is the Dong-Suk Couple of Dong Yi. Hello!
JJH and HHJ: Hello, nice to meet you.
Reporter: It's so nice to see you guys in modern clothes for once!
HHJ: But it seems like you're only looking at JJH ;D
Reporter: If you guys are out of the palace like this, who will look after the prince? (Suk Jong and Dong Yi's son)
JJH and HHJ: There's Madam Bong, and Ae Jong
Reporter: Do the other people in Dong Yi know that you guys are out of the palace?
JJH: I guess they will find out later, when the CF comes out. The person that will be the most jealous will be
HHJ: Hee Bin (Jang Ok Jung, the antagonist and Dong Yi's rival in the drama)
JJH: Yes Hee Bin. Also In Hyun (the Queen in Dong Yi) will be a little jealous too.
HHJ: (as a joke) Yes it may not seem obvious but she also portrays a lot of jealousy too.
JJH: Yeah I agree.
Reporter: Do you want to say something to them now? This is an opportunity to explain yourselves so that you can avoid any misunderstandings.
JJH: There's no need to explain.. I'm the King ;D ;D
Reporter: Since you're acting a king, do you have a tendency to act like a King in real life too?
HHJ: He's really enjoying his role as the King. ;D
JJH: Yeah I am. I always say "I'm so glad that I'm not Chun Soo!" (The character who loves Dong Yi but is only able to be with her as an 'older brother'. He has many action scenes in the drama, whether it be in the winter or the summer - that's why JJH is happy he's not Chun Soo ;D )
Reporter: What about you, Hyo Joo? You recently came back to the palace.
HHJ: After I became Suk Jong's concubine, I said to Jang Hee Bin (the antagonist), "I don't need to kneel down when I sit in front of you anymore!" ;D
Reporter: You two have acted together for some time now, is there a person who makes many NGs?
JJH: (Admitting straight away) It's me. ;D
Reporter: Did you find any unexpected sides to each other's personality?
HHJ: You would think that JJH is very quiet and intellectual.. But in fact, he's...
JJH: (Interrupting) Stop! Don't go any further! ;D
Reporter to HHJ: JJH said last time that it was Dong Yi who seduced(? can't seem to find the right word.. anyway they were saying it as a joke) Suk Jong.. do you agree?
HHJ (as a joke): You can't find another man who seduces better than Suk Jong.. I was the one that was seduced! ;D
JJH: That's just a matter of perspective ;D ;D
JJH: Please participate in the 2010 national census
HHJ: And please enjoy watching the rest of the Dong Yi.
JJH and HHJ: Thank you!
