[article] Korean actors making headway in Hollywood.
The Examiner Charlotte (North Carolina) 12/8/2010 — Un Kyoung Han, Correspondent
The Warrior’s Way opened in theaters this past weekend and featured Korean actor Jang Dong-gun. He is one of a handful of Korean-born actors entering the Hollywood movie scene. His movie made the top ten box office hits by rating number 9 and grossing $3,048,665.
Another actor is Jung Ji-hoon (also known as Rain) who was the male lead in 2009’s Ninja Assassin and earned MTV’s Biggest Badass Star. He is currently in a Korean drama called Fugitive Plan.B with Daniel Henney. Rain is more famously known as a k-pop (Korean Pop Music) singer. He made a headline at the 2010 Green Planet Movie Awards by making the list for 10 Outstanding Asians in Hollywood, Best International Entertainer, and Asian Cultural Ambassador of the year.
Daniel Henney was born to a Korean American mother and an American father of Irish descent. He wasn’t born in Korea, but he has made a big splash in the Korean drama industry. He recently filmed X-Men Origins: Wolverine with Hugh Jackman which came out in 2009.
You may also be familiar with Daniel Dae Kim who is currently cast as Chin Ho Kelly in the Hawaii-Five-0 series. He was born in Korea, but immigrated to America when he was two years old. You may recognize him from the TV series LOST. You can watch Daniel on your local WBTV Channel 3 station on Mondays at 10 p.m.
Be infused with some ethnic flavor by checking out what these Korean actors have to offer at your local movie theater and movie rental company. The Warrior’s Way is playing at select movie theaters, so be sure to check your local listings. You can rent some of the Korean dramas from Netflix and read the English subtitles. Blockbuster also carries Tae Guk Ki: The Brotherhood of War which stars Jang Dong-gun as well as other Korean movies in their foreign films section.
