Bae Suzy: A little bit of this and that....
First Suzy post since May 21st, it's also the first post for a Korean actress since May 28th though there have been some posts for drama recaps. Seems this crisis has affected the activities of my fave actresses from that country much more than their peers from Japan and thought it's be the other way around. Obviously that hasn't been the case but I've also been taking a brief vacation from Korean dramas which means I may not follow some of my bigger faves as much. Will change that and thought a post to break the long drought would be the right step.
Korean actresses have never been popular here but always thought that Suzy had a semi-biggish fan base. That's really not the case as I was just looking at how many views her previous seven posts for the year have received and it was far lower than I imagined. That's a shame as her posts have usually been quite good, so isn't this one though it may not be as large as others but wanted to start having posts for my fave actresses from Korea once again. There's little doubt that Suzy is a massive fave of mine, she'll finish in the top ten on this year's fave's list and when/if that happens she'll be just one of two women to be in the top ten the past four years.
Whew, we need some new ultra alluring event pics such as those but that ban on events in Korea is still going on. Hoping that will be ending soon or at least there will be events with no audience which has been the case in Japan. One reason is because Suzy has a new drama beginning soon, no official date has been set but thinking it'll be in September. Title of the show is "Startup" and glad to see she's not taking another long break after doing a drama.
She did after "While You Were Sleeping" which is my top show since 2015, Suzy's last drama "Vagabond" was fairly good to me though many critics didn't share that opinion. Just mentioned the lack of events taking place in Korea but Suzy was the co-host of the 56th 'Baeksong Awards' which is a prestigious show that honors the best in Korean dramas, films, art and other things. The event was held on June 5th at the Kintex arena but with a very, very small audience. You can see how the venue was set up for the show in the final pic and it's the third year in a row she's been a co-host.
Besides being an actress Suzy is also a model for so many companies and clothing lines, she usually has many pics in these posts though not as many have been coming out which could be due to the health crisis(?). But do have a few of them which naturally are all quite terrific, this first batch is for K2 which is a clothing site for hiking and such.
Think these are a bit better which are fro Lancome cosmetics. Think there's also a new CM out for them, will check so as to have something to end the post off with.
One final set of modeling pics which are from 'Dashing Diva' and are my faves for this post.
Have a pair of new mag spreads to end the mini post off with, this is from the August issue of Elle. In the interview Suzy mentioned how she's been in the entertainment field for ten years now and time has really flown for her she said, in October she'll be hitting the age of 26.
In her last post had this spread from the June edition of Vogue. Those are the bottom eight pics but found some fabulous ones from the photo shoot which are the top eight and as I've said so many times Suzy is in my top five for being the most alluring women in the world or at least to me she is. For a newish CM decided to go with one from 'Dashing Diva' that came out last month, that follows the pics and do recommend it.
