A few years ago, actor Lee Sun-kyun had a major role in a film that made history: director Bong Joon-ho’s dark comedy thriller Parasite, which racked up multiple Academy Awards: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, and Best International Feature Film. It was the first non-English-language film to win the Academy Award for Best Picture. But now Lee’s life has come to a tragic early end. South Korea’s emergency office has confirmed that Lee has passed away at the age of 48, and it’s suspected that he committed suicide.

Local news service Yonhap reported that Lee had been questioned multiple times by authorities, including for 19 hours this past weekend. The actor had said he was tricked into taking drugs.” Lee...

Derek Tsang’s debut film “SoulMate“, starring Zhou Dongyu and Ma Sichun in award-winning roles, was a big hit critically and commercially, so much so that Korean remake of the romantic drama was eventually announced. Now the actors for the central trio of characters, which include two childhood best friends and the man that becomes the object of both their affections, have been finalised, with Kim Da-mi, Jeon So-nee and Byeon Woo-seok all confirmed to be on board.
Kim Da-mi, who was the first to be attached to the project, is coming off the back of her brilliant performance in the K-Drama series “Itaewon Class“, which followed her breakout debut role in Park Hoon-jung’s “The Witch: Part 1. The Subversion“. Jeon So-nee, meanwhile, was last seen in her scene-stealing turn as Mi-na in “Jo Pil-ho: The Dawning Rage” and “Ghost Walk”. Byeon Woo-seok is fairly new to films, having had...
