Part I: 2007 Pusan International Film Festival Red Carpet Couples

10.06 kim tae hee

Couples galore at the 12th Pusan International Film Festival last night! Nice to see the stars paired up -even though they may not be couples in real life – or maybe they are and we just don’t know it.

Kim Tae Hee & Lee Kyu Han look like they are frozen in time from the wild wild west. Ms. Kim in a long black textured gown that reminds me of drapes. Mr. Lee looks buttoned up in his gray suit and strange bow-tie. I wonder how long it took to button up that vest. The vest is overkill.

Um Ji-won & Jun Tae-su. Ms Um is trying to bring back the old Hollywood glam with the pin curl hair and dark red lipstick in a white jersey(?) gown. The back of the dress plunges to the borderline of her butt. Glamorous? You decide.

10.06 kim hye sung10.06 kim hye sung2

Kim Hye-sung & Kim Hae-na. Mr. Kim looks like a 12 year old child in his bowl cut beside Ms. Kim! And Ms. Kim, this isn’t an 80’s prom- no fluffy black dresses allowed. Like the cute polka-dotted tie on Mr. Kim.

Kim Ok-bin & Lee Tae-sung. Somehow Ms Kim’s dress works – the porcupine silvery needles with the equally pointy black and silver shoes. A lot of thought must have gone into that outfit. Mr Lee in a 3 piece black suit with KFC tie and bowl cut…hmmm.

Park Shi-yeon & Joo Jin-mo are a gorgeous couple but Ms Park’s dress is disappointingly blah in black. Not that black is not fabulous and slimming, but I expected more from her. As for Mr Joo, the man is deliciously hot but black on black with man cleavage? Not so hot.

10.06 ha jung woo and yoon jin suh

Ha Jung-wo & Yoon Jin-suh are a gay couple. No just kidding. But what’s wrong with a girl wanting to look like a girl? No need to try to get the boy look down, Yoon Eun-hye has already gotten that covered.

10.06 oh jiho10.06 oh jiho2

Oh Ji-ho & Park Sol-mi looked like they just got married with Ms. Park in a white beaded gown and Mr. Oh in a standard black suit with black tie. I thought black ties were only reserved for funerals…
10.06 lee hana and kim kwang woo10.06 lee hana and kim kwang woo2

Kim Kwang-woo & Lee Hana. Ms Lee is channeling Carrie Bradshaw of Sex and the City fame with the big black flower bag. A touch of color is a good idea, but not when its red shoes with black stockings. Somehow it doesn’t work. As for Mr. Kim, he needs to hem his pants.

10.06 kim ju hyuk kim ji su10.06 kim ju hyuk kim ji su2

Kim Ju-hyuk & Kim Jisu.Mr Kim looks fabulous in the penguin suit – it fits him well. And Ms Kim looks very comfortable in this lovely muted number. You don’t have to worry about your butt or boobs hanging out in this dress.

10.06 jang junhwan moon sori10.06 jang junhwan moon sori210.06 jang junhwan moon sori3

Jang Junhwan & Moon Sori. Standard issue- black suit and tie with black dress. Yawn.

Lee Jung-jin & Lee Soyeon are a gorgeous couple! Love the sexy n short sparkling silver dress with the slicked back hair! And as for Mr. Lee, he pulls off the difficult white and black suit with sequin tie just because the man is hot (including the slicked hair). Fabulous!

  5. 5 jyyjc October 5, 2007 at 5:43 pm

  9. 9 0rchid October 5, 2007 at 6:41 pm

    Popseoul, thanks for the comprehensive coverage. Phew…i do not know most of these Korean stars. :-) Looking forward to Part 2.

  10. 10 neri October 5, 2007 at 6:41 pm

    hey popseoul, the name is PARK SOL-MI not Sol-Bi.
    and Lee Jung Jin looks awkward..
    whereas Joo Jin Mo is soo friggen sexy!

  11. 12 eli October 5, 2007 at 6:57 pm

    KFC tie. ROFL.

  12. 13 akon October 5, 2007 at 9:02 pm

    bring out part 2: the fuglier. ;D

  13. 14 hearmeroar October 5, 2007 at 10:01 pm

    kimhyesung looks 12, but adorable. probably because he looks 12. HAHA.
    joojinmo is by far the best-dressed guy. it helps that he is ridiculously good-looking. GAH.
    i like leejungjin, but i don’t think he looks all that great, honestly. leesoyeon definitely looks better. i think she looked the best out of the ladies.

  14. 15 SZA October 6, 2007 at 12:43 am

    Kim Hye-sung & Kim Hae-na.
    i wanna add something that they look like mother and son pair..lol

  15. 16 azndramagrl October 6, 2007 at 12:48 am

    so pretty and handsome. but i wonder how they got coupled up? is it a choice or a set arrangement?

  16. 17 lyn October 6, 2007 at 12:57 am

    Did Park Sol-mi get implants? Because one of her boobs look like they were trying to escape. It’s dramatically bigger than the other one if you really look.

    yeah, what’s up with the KFC ties? I saw two dudes wearing them.

  17. 18 rocketfuel October 6, 2007 at 12:59 am

    Or she could just be wearing a push up bra since it’s much cheaper.

  18. 19 jolens October 6, 2007 at 1:10 am

    yeh dress doesnt look…????? i dont like her dress…

  19. 20 JAMMY October 6, 2007 at 2:17 am

    omg, lee tae-sung proper looks like rain if you dont enlarge the pics! its the hair and the hand wave thing rain does!

  20. 21 Jane. October 6, 2007 at 4:10 am

    I actually think Kim Okbin & Lee Tae Sung or Kim Ju-hyuk & Kim Jisu make the best couple. Lee Jung Jin looks like a gang-pae..lol.

  21. 22 tangy October 6, 2007 at 4:56 am

    why are there so many couples….they usually come alone

  22. 23 nurkeyandie October 6, 2007 at 7:31 am

    i wanna know who the real-life couples are…

  23. 24 Lily October 6, 2007 at 9:03 am

    that um ji won has no butt…she ruined the dress…it would look better if someone with some curves wore it.

  24. 25 DM October 6, 2007 at 9:41 am

    I think Park Shi-yeon looked baaaad. It’s not the dress, it’s her face and hair. I feel bad for her partner.

    Jane: “I actually think Kim Okbin & Lee Tae Sung or Kim Ju-hyuk & Kim Jisu make the best couple.”

    I agree. They both looked nice.

  25. 26 starz12 October 6, 2007 at 10:49 am

    joon min jo is whatever he wears, he still hot…but are they really real couple in real life..no kidding?

  28. 29 teabag October 6, 2007 at 11:15 am

    you didn’t include Jung Kyung Ho and Cha Su Yeon

  29. 30 Jenn October 6, 2007 at 12:17 pm

    in the picture with Kim Hye-sung & Kim Hae-na, Mr. Kim is wearing what looks to be tennis shoes. *grumbles*

  30. 31 Victor October 6, 2007 at 12:25 pm

    Kim Ju-hyuk looks terrible. Check out his sleeves. You’re suppose to show a quarter to half inch of cuff but he’s showing several inches. Yuck.

  31. 32 --- October 6, 2007 at 4:33 pm

    Kim Hae Tee ?? Kim Tae hee? WHAT? Name change or are you just making fun of her.. that IS kim tae hee right?

  32. 33 popseoul October 6, 2007 at 5:44 pm

  33. 34 lalala October 7, 2007 at 12:27 am

  34. 35 Thuy October 7, 2007 at 12:48 am

    Wooooooooooooooow!! Park Shi-yeon & Joo Jin-mo look super good together in that first picture.

  35. 36 denise October 7, 2007 at 6:06 am

    omg omg omg!
    i have never seen such a hot man!
    Lee Soyeon!
    i’m drooling!
    hehehe

  36. 37 Anna October 7, 2007 at 3:58 pm

    DAMN! That’s true! Park Su Yeon’s dress does look like a cheap prom dress. She probably got it from David’s Bridal Shop! Hahahaah! But any ways, Joo Jin Mo, her date to the red carpet, he’s so hot! He played in Fashion 70’s! AWESOME! She probably went with him, because she probaby thought he kind of looked like Eric in his movie Phoniex.

  37. 38 Anna October 7, 2007 at 3:59 pm

    WAIT!!! Is Kim Tae Hee and they guy together!? PLEASE SOMEONE RESPOND BACK!!! Thanks!

  38. 39 --- October 7, 2007 at 4:51 pm

    No “Anna” I think they just went to this event together.. Calm down.
    lol

  39. 40 Lore October 9, 2007 at 2:04 am

    O_O lee jung jin….WHOAAA.

  40. 41 bt October 9, 2007 at 9:19 pm

    Just wondering how do the couples come together? do they have a voting system or randomly pick by number????

  41. 42 suh eun-ha October 10, 2007 at 1:19 pm

    thanks for the great photos. i wasn’t able to catch every glimpse at Arirang Tv, but i got a better look at it here. keep up the good work!

  42. 43 Dovey October 14, 2007 at 5:43 pm

    All of the couples look glamorous. =3

  43. 44 Quta October 18, 2007 at 6:42 pm

    joojinmo he smart love joojinmo so much

  44. 45 yoon-ah November 13, 2007 at 9:17 am

    are they really all couples?

  45. 46 hikaru181262 December 12, 2007 at 2:45 pm

    Ohayo!

    I’m totally into Joo Jin Mo but not really into Park Si-yeon. Gosh! She is too showy with her natural enodowmnents here but many thumbs-up for JJM! That guy in 200 Pounds Beauty and SARANG is definitely one k-hottie surpassing many! QUEEN OF THE GAME is a must see of JJM in another great role!

  46. 47 hikaru181262 December 12, 2007 at 2:57 pm

    Gosh! Finally see the big image of JJM and PSY. Wow! THE BEST DRESSED AWARD CERTAINLY SHOULD GO TO JOO JIN MOO!

    This guy is really HAWT!

  47. 48 lizanne April 9, 2008 at 12:14 pm

    is that the gf of kim hye sung??? please answer me.. i desperately need your answer… :]

  48. 49 droppingby October 3, 2008 at 2:30 am

    Park Shi-yeon looks preggy on that dress.. it doesn’t looks nice.. and the whole outlook doesn’t fit her.. hope that she had her hair clipped or something.. maybe next time.. hopefully!!

  49. 50 mrasni September 16, 2009 at 5:50 am

    i love you lee hana bye
