Hyun Bin’s Agency To Take Legal Action Against Publishing Photo Book Without Permission
SpoilerBy C. Hong on Aug 18, 2020Hyun Bin's agency stated that they will be taking legal action against a photo book of the actor that is set to be published in Japan without permission.
On August 18, a Japanese media outlet reported that a book of Hyun Bin’s photos that were taken during his time in the Marine Corps would be republished on September 7. The republication is inspired by the popularity of Hyun Bin’s drama “Crash Landing on You,” in which he played a North Korean soldier.
The book in question had previously been published in South Korea as an electronic book in 2012. It was made available in an offline version in Japan in 2014 after a contract with a Japanese publisher. Hyun Bin’s agency was excluded from this contract. The photos in the book had been taken by the Marines for public use but ended up being for sale. As public servants, military personnel do not own portrait rights to their pictures.
Later on August 18, Hyun Bin’s agency, VAST Entertainment, said that they would be taking legal action against a Korean publishing company. A source from the agency stated, “Just like in 2014, we didn’t hear anything about republication in Japan. We saw that it was available for pre-order on Amazon Japan and contacted the current publisher. The publisher was flustered and said that they thought that the Korean agency had already given permission.”
The source continued, “In 2014, we decided that it was the Marine Corps’ affair and didn’t take legal action. This time it’s different. For the past 10 years, the photos that were taken for public use have continued to be used without prior consent. It is an issue that private companies have taken an interest in this. We recently had discussions with a law firm and will be taking legal action.”
A source from Planet Media, the domestic publisher that made the deal for reissue with the Japanese publisher, stated, “We are simply reissuing the content that was published five years ago without any new material. It’s about the Marine Hyun Bin, not the actor Hyun Bin, and was published under the agreement between the publisher and the Marines, so Hyun Bin’s previous and current agencies have nothing to do with it.”
A source from the Marine Corps stated, “We first learned about the republication in Japan through news articles. The publisher did not make an agreement with the Marine Corps on this.” When asked if the Marines had plans to make an agreement in future, the source stated, “We need to investigate this more closely.”
Hyun Bin is currently filming the movie “Bargaining” (working title), based on the 2007 South Korean hostage crisis in Afghanistan.
Hyun Bin's Marine Corps photo book, which will be reprinted in September, is currently on sale by pre-order (as of 6pm on the 18th) and is currently ranked No. 1 in Amazon Japan's new book rankings.

Publication of Hyun Bin's Photo Book in Japan has been cancelled
As for “Hyunbin, Marine Corps Days”, which was planned to be released from our company on September 7, 2020, because the publisher of the original book in South Korea requested to cancel the translation and publishing contract, we have decided to cancel the release of the Japanese version. We apologize for any inconvenience caused to everyone who was looking forward to the publication. We apologize.

Hyun Bin heads to Jordan to film 'Negotiations' amid pandemic
Departing from Incheon to Jordan via Doha wearing mostly Under Amour. He is expected to return to South Korea in late September. [Edit: HB may return end Aug]
(Credit: https://n.news.naver.com/entertain/article/382/0000846185)
SpoilerBy Dong Sun-hwa on Jul 13, 2020
Actor Hyun Bin headed to Jordan Monday morning to film the thriller "Negotiations" amid the COVID-19 pandemic. "Negotiations" is the first Korean flick to start overseas shooting following the virus outbreak that has deterred international travel.
Hyun Bin and other actors, including Hwang Jung-min, took a charter flight from Incheon International Airport. After they arrive in Jordan, they will go through COVID-19 checks and then self-isolate for eight days before to start filming.
The exact date of their return is unknown, but the Jordanian government reportedly allowed two months for the shooting.
Crew members initially planned to visit the Middle East country for filming in March, but had to put off the plan when Jordan banned entry to people coming from Korea, due to a spike in confirmed virus cases here.
The film revolves around a National Intelligence Service agent (Hyun Bin) and a diplomat (Hwang) trying to arrange the release of Koreans kidnapped in the Middle East. Yim Soon-rye ― who was behind the success of popular movies including "Little Forest" (2018) ― directs the star-studded production.
With "Negotiations" leading the way, more Korean films are expected to start or resume overseas shooting.
Hyun Bin, whose real name is Kim Tae-pyung, debuted in 2003 in the drama "Bodyguard" and was catapulted to fame after starring in the TV series "My Name is Kim Sam-soon" in 2005. He recently appeared in another hit drama "Crash Landing on You" with actress Son Ye-jin.Credit: https://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/art/2020/07/689_292748.html
South Korean star Hyun Bin lands in Jordan to shoot
SpoilerBy Samar Khouri on Jul 15, 2020
South Korean actor Hyun Bin has landed in Jordan to shoot movie ‘The Negotiations’.
Following the film production team’s arrival at Queen Alia International Airport on Saturday to prepare for the shoot, the ‘Crash Landing On You’ actor alongside co-stars including Hwang Jung-min reportedly took a charter flight from Incheon International Airport in Seoul on Monday morning.
“Board member of the Royal Film Commission, Raja Gargour and the Managing Director, Mohannad Al Bakri welcomed the actor #hyunbin and the film director Yim Soon-rye in Amman,” Royal Film Commission (RFC) stated in an Instagram on Tuesday, confirming their arrival in the country.
“The famous actor and the rest of the film crew are currently in quarantine before starting the shoot of the film “The Negotiations” (Bargaining).”
The RFC posted a video online showing the crew and actors arriving and undergoing precautionary measures at the airport.
Filming was initially scheduled to take place sometime in March but was suspended due to the COVID-19 outbreak, RFC revealed in a press release.
This time, the star-studded production is slated to start by mid-August, with scenes scheduled to be shot in different locations in Jordan, where popular 2014 Korean TV series, ‘Misaeng’, was also filmed.
RFC revealed that the film crew will abide by the filming guidelines issued last month.
Directed by Yim Soon-rye, the film is based on true events in 2007 hostage crisis, when 23 South Koreans were kidnapped in Afghanistan. Hyun, whose real name is Kim Tae-pyung, will reportedly play a National Intelligence Service (NIS) agent who will take part in a rescue attempt.
‘The Negotiations’ is the actor’s latest project since playing a North Korean officer opposite actress Son Ye-jin in highly-popular TV drama ‘Crash Landing On You’, which became the highest rated cable channel tvN drama to date, according to Nielsen Korea. The Korean drama ranked among the top ten most viewed Netflix programs in the UAE.
It is seemingly the first Korean production to resume shooting overseas following the COVID-19 outbreak that has wreaked havoc on the entertainment and film industry.

SpoilerExtremely Exquisite and Incredibly Vigorous, The Actor is Present.
Korean Actors 200 by KoBiz.
SpoilerThe KOREAN ACTORS 200 website aims to introduce the 200 actors that best represent the present and future of Korean cinema to the people in the film industry all over the world.
The selection process considered performers who starred in some of the biggest successes of the last decade, actors who earned accolades from film festivals in Korea or abroad, as well as the biggest contributors to indie film or those who participated in international projects.https://theactorispresent.kr/hyun-bin/
SpoilerFrom a romanticist in TV series to an action hero is the film industry. Hyun Bin's reputation, which always makes the public excited, shows no sign of slowing down
A star is a coordinate of the desire and daydream of the time, reflecting the trend and era with constantly changing power. The cycle is getting faster. In other words, it is not easy to stay as a steady seller for a long time under the current star system, where a star is quickly replaced. Hyun Bin is a rare actor in this regard. The actor has already experienced three heydays in his career, unlike many other actors who would be lucky to have it just once. What’s more, he did that even in the changing times.
The actor’s first heyday came early. After debuting with the weekend series Bodyguard (2003), Hyun was recognized for his potential as an actor in Island (2004) and rose to stardom with My Lovely Sam-Soon (2005) when he was only 24. Five years later, he drew huge attention again by playing Kim Joowon in Secret Garden (2010), who hides his traumas and warmth in his bluffness. Also, in Crash Landing on You (2020), Hyun showed a model of a reliable man and hit his third home run. After the series was released on Netflix, Hyun has risen again as the main character of the K-wave. But the reason the actor is highly valued as a star is not simply because he became a sensation three times. It is because he is steadily showing his unique identity as an actor while showcasing his star quality.
The low-budget film I Am Happy (2009) that the actor played a megalomaniac, and the art film Come Rain, Come Shine (2011) that he played free of charge reflected Hyun Bin’s faith, that he doesn’t want to be consumed as a good-looking nine-day wonder. Late Autumn (2011), where the actor performed with Tang Wei, is a good example that shows Hyun’s passion for acting. What about Hyun Bin in the series Worlds Within (2008), which is still being talked about? He stirred up great empathy from us with the vivid image of a very ordinary young man.
There are many stars in the film world, and many of them can be called professional actors. However, not many of them have both. In that sense, Hyun Bin is a rare and unusual actor. It has not been changed, and that’s why Hyun Bin is unique. Countless actors are pouring into the film world every year, but no one seems to replace the vibe Hyun Bin has. Who can be the second Hyun Bin anyway? After filming The Point MEN with Hwang Jungmin recently, Hyun Bin is filming Confidential Assignment 2 now. Recording 7.8 million viewers, Confidential Assignment 1 (2016) gave him great success. Hyun Bin is a living drama himself who has made independent choices and constantly expanded his spectrum.

SpoilerSouth Korean Memorial Day held, on June 6th since 1956, commemorates those who died during the Korean War and other conflicts. Hyun Bin was chosen to recite the poem for the 60th Memorial Day Memorial Ceremony in 2015.
SpoilerHyun-bin, reciting 'Okto' at Memorial Day
Actor Hyun-bin, who attended the Memorial Day Memorial Ceremony, recited a dedication poem at the Memorial Day Memorial.
On the morning of the 6th, Hyun-bin attended the 60th Memorial Day Memorial Ceremony held at the National Seoul National Cemetery, in commemoration of the spirit of the success of the country and the spirit of protection.
Hyun-bin, who was selected as the reciter of heron poem, drew attention on the stage with a black suit, tie, and neat hairstyle. He recited the winning poem 'Okto' at the 2013 Veterans Literature Contest to match the performance of the Korean traditional musician Yong-gu Lee.
An official from the agency said, "Actor Hyun-bin's credibility and calm and sincere image are well harmonized with the spirit of the memorial ceremony, and we are hoping that it will be a meaningful day for the people to honor and commemorate the will of the spirits of their own country."
With the slogan 'I will never forget a sacrifice for the country and the people', a memorial ceremony for Memorial Day attended by national merit, students, and people from all walks of life was held at the Seoul National Cemetery on the morning of that day.Source: The FactㅣReporter Sung Jiyeon amysung@tf.co.kr

tvN "Taxi" Talk Show ❤❤❤❤❤
Hyun Bin appeared in "Taxi" hosted by Lee Young-ja (who is hilarious) and Gong Hyung-jin (they are baseball mates and Hyun Bin agreed to the interview out of friendship). The program usually takes half day to record. However, due to Hyun Bin's schedule, the recording ended in only 2.5 hours and there was sufficient material to broadcast as 2 episodes instead of the usual single.
Hyun Bin was exhausted due to the tight schedule immediately following the success of "Secret Garden". In fact, he had been on an IV drip earlier in the day. However, he smiled brightly and answered the questions candidly and naturally. This was an in-depth interview and he touched on many subjects including his childhood, his work, friends, popularity and the reason he chose to join the Marine Corps.
Lee Young-ja is an award-winning and seasoned host. She has interviewed a lot of celebrities. Yet she considered Hyun Bin one of her top 2 interviews (the other is her good friend). In one of the many hilarious moments of the show, she said "I can't ask questions now." Why? Because she was distracted by Hyun Bin's visage and could not look at him. She was also worried about having bad breath! It seems the production crew was also in awe - at one point, Gong Hyung-jin questioned why all 8 cameras were pointed at Hyun Bin and none at him!
"Taxi" with Hyun Bin is a must-watch. It is so entertaining and watch Hyun Bin's ad-libs and witty responses! One of his best interviews ever. It's a pity that the videos with English translation are not as sharp as the originals in Korean, but this does not diminish the quality of the interview.
