Still stuck on SJS

Still want to talk about him a bit....
guess it's the Gloria withdrawal syndrome...

Suh Ji Suk didn't grow up dreaming to be an actor, he wanted to be an athlete. At 16 he was awarded four gold medals for short distance running and was chosen to enter the national team. But his dream of a career in sports ended when he had an accident...he was hit by a car while crossing the street. He had to spend six months in the hospital....no doubt frustrated about his dream shattering to pieces.

Ji Suk with his puppy, Lil' Star....

he takes her to film locations also..

A management agency's manager saw Ji Suk on the streets....liked his appearance and...I guess immediately offered Ji Suk a career as a performer . I'm glad for Ji Suk....he's a good actor ! Suh Ji Suk is 29 now and  he still loves sports. In fact, he's in the same baseball team as Heo Yong Saeng [Otter ^^]. By the looks of it...the two are rather chummy :)

He became famous in the drama Pure 19, performing opposite Goo Hye Sun. Hmmm...I'll just have to find that drama and watch it ^^ Actually, I've seen the first episode online...but....but...loading takes sooo long :(

Suh Ji Suk and Bae Doo Na at GLORIA film ending

Bae Doo Na who is the female lead in Gloria is a more senior famous performer. In an interview Ji Suk talked about the first time he met Bae Doo Na : in his early twenties he accidentally met Bae Doo Na  in the coffee shop where he worked part time, her advice to him was " Try Harder ! "   So, he is honored to perform in Gloria with her. Wow!....You never know what will happen in life, right ? Not only that....but their characters in the film eventually become lovers....and they share several romantic kisses ...eerrr..OK, no more spoilers if you haven't watched yet ^^

Here Ji Suk and Bae Doo Na attended the " MBC Night with Korean Top Stars event "  to promote MBC dramas to foreign buyers. And as you know another famous couple attended the event....guess I don't have to introduce them to you, right ? While Ji Suk, Bae Doo Na  and the others' expression are a bit  solemn, these two are smiling away !  Hmmm, was Leader teasing So Min ??
