Han Ji-Min: The massive 'An extremely overdue post' #1....


 'Extremely overdue' are two apt words as this is her first post in over.... three years! Can't give any good reason for the gap as Ji-Min is someone I kind of keep up with though it certainly doesn't seem that way. She has a new drama that began yesterday and have viewed the first episode, perfect time I thought for a post then and as the title says this should be #1 of a few of them. Hope many aren't moaning about that but seems I've picked up many fans of Korean actresses and dramas recently.



 Have a mish mash of things of things for today and as the title says it is a massive post as there's 85 or so pics. Some are from an event that took place a day ago though the majority are from 2018 but they're all recent plus zero have been posted here. That makes sense as this is her first post in eons, these are Ji-Min pics from 2009 and she's really changed in the past decade. To me she's changed for the better, she is one of my older faves who tops most gals ten years younger.





 Ji-Min recently traveled to NYC for a film festival, her 2018 movie "Miss Baek" was shown. She gave an interview for the Screenanarchy website which is in English, here's the link:

 First set of mag spreads is from the August issue of Vogue, photo shoot took place in Paris.









 All of these spreads are simply superb as Ji-Min proves you don't have to dress skimpy to look like a few trillion Won. Final and largest set is from the September issue of Harper's Bazaar.














 Title of Ji-Min's new drama is "The Light in Your Eyes", it airs on JTBC and began yesterday. It's just a twelve episode series so perhaps this is one I can keep up with and recap weekly. With that title you'd think it was a bit of a fluffy, romantic show and those kinds aren't my cup of tea. It does have some romance but the first episode was quite serious and it ended on a down note with an auto accident. These screenshots are from the first show, final pic is of Ji-Min's character Hye-Ja looking at a watch. Seems to be a special one as she was able to turn back time and perhaps by doing that she could prevent the accident, won't give away any more spoilers.












 Ji-Min only appeared in two dramas from 2010 to 2014 but since 2016 she's been in four of them. Her 2009 series "Cain and Abel" is really worth a watch, viewed it last Summer for the first time but didn't do any posts for it. After this current drama ends Ji-Min has another one lined up which is "Spring Night" that will be beginning in May.
 Guess that will mean many posts for new things plus do have many older happenings to get hopping on. Yesterday there was an event for "The Light in Your Eyes" drama that was held at the Conrad Seoul Hotel. The main cast was all there and besides her don't know anyone but it's good learning about other actors. May not be a huge ratings winner as JTBC is a cable channel.























 Hmmmm, microphones can be difficult to use! Saved the best pics for last and these are some of the best ones for 2018, why was there such a long gap with her posts? On March 30th Ji-Min was at the opening night of the 'Noah's Ark' jewelry exhibition, it's a French brand, The event was held at the Dongdaemun Design Plaza in Seoul and wow(!), did she look beyond magnificent or what, wow(!) again. Plenty of sparkling pics from the event which is followed by a short video from it.

  1. Man, about time you posted Han Ji Min! She's been my second favorite ever since I watched Rooftop Prince.

    (Btw, you have some pictures of Han Hyo Joo in this post.)

  2. Actually did have a pair of posts for her back in 2015. Was going to mention it but didn't which is how similar Ji-Min and Hye-Joo look. You were right about the pics that was the High Cut spread. What I did was put pics of both of them in the same folder which was a mistake as, least to me, at times it's easy to mix the two up.
