Kim Rae-won thinks he can cook

Kimraewon_1202_8

If you are an actor playing the role of a chef, does this mean you can cook?

Apparently so.

Kim Rae-won, star of the SBS drama, “Gourmet” (식객) has just released a cooking book entitled, “Kim Rae-won prepares scrumptious meals ( a loose translation of ‘김래원이 차리는 진수성찬’). The actor reveals recipes that he learned while living alone and through the drama. However, Kim Rae-won’s management insists that the book is not just a Korean cook book but a glimpse into his lifestyle….Well that explains the foreign beer.

    in Kim Rae Won’s case, yes.
    He said he always loved cooking even before the drama, and he even got taught how to cook for the drama.
    So yes, i think kim rae won can cook.

    Love him but he’s way too skinny and looks really artificial. Goddamnit Kim Rae-won, eat a Big Mac!!!

    I love KRW not only in Gourmet but in all his other dramas. He is a versatile actor, it is no wonder that he could cook among other things. But most of all I love his character in Gourmet. In my opinion, he brings out his most sensitive side: being a son, a young brother, a friend, an enemy, an ally, a lover, a mentor and he is a gourmet cook to boot. I wonder if he resembles his character here in real life. Is he by any chance taken? If not, a lucky girl awaits. Or who knows we might concoct something together. Lol.

    Anyway, I don’t find anything impressive about him…based on his looks!

  10. 10 Cera December 5, 2008 at 3:00 am

    Yum…him and the food ^_^

  11. 11 Matthew December 5, 2008 at 3:10 am

  12. 12 Kaybee December 5, 2008 at 3:40 am

    After a long time a news on him….he is looking good…slim and trim…
    Is it just me, I am finding his eyes kind of “Done”…..Hmmm….

  13. 13 cookiekillaa December 5, 2008 at 3:45 am

    I’ll kidnap him one day and make him cook for me… “yay”

  14. 14 live4music December 5, 2008 at 3:57 am

    it’ll probably me be a good cookbook for people living on their own XD

  15. 15 palki December 5, 2008 at 4:18 am

    I love to watch this guy in dramas. He is so earthy, real and natural. And a very sensitive actor. Love his subtle facial expressions. He never overdoes it.

    Popseaoul said, “…Well that explains the foreign beer.”

    damn right, even KRW knows that Korean beer “Cass” tastes like piss.

    Bwahahahahaha!!!! :-)

  19. 19 otto December 5, 2008 at 7:35 am

    as long an actor doesn’t think he’s doctor after playing one on TV…

  20. 20 Angelic December 5, 2008 at 7:49 am

    I love Kim Rae-won, he’s my no.1 favorite Korean actor. Handsome, charismatic, very down to earth, a very good and very versatile actor. He’s my hearthrob chef…he can cook for me anytime. Saranghaeyo Oppa!

  21. 21 sticksandpotatoes December 5, 2008 at 7:59 am

  23. 23 p December 5, 2008 at 9:22 am

  24. 24 Rin December 5, 2008 at 9:33 am

    a guy who can cook (and a cute one at it too), who wouldn’t want to bag him?!?! ^^

  25. 25 tumyeit December 5, 2008 at 9:38 am

    i love to watch his drama….
    for cooking, who cares …

  26. 26 sierra December 5, 2008 at 10:03 am

    Yummy!

  27. 27 lime. December 5, 2008 at 11:23 am

    actually, before he did gourmet i’d heard he was a fairly good cook…so i don’t think it’s just that he was an actor playing the role of a chef who now thinks he can cook. i think its cute how it has his character’s name from gourmet in the title, though. (:

  28. 28 bubbles December 5, 2008 at 1:43 pm

    well he did go to cook school or wtv, for this drama..so yes, i think he can whip a thing or two

  29. 29 -_- December 5, 2008 at 2:21 pm

    i like him. he seems like a nice and cool guy. he has a really ugly nose though. just pointing that out.

  30. 30 TomatoJuice December 5, 2008 at 7:04 pm

  31. 31 Shrimp December 5, 2008 at 8:14 pm

    why not!… just because he’s an actor he’s already confined to showbizness alone?–hell no!

  32. 32 bennethjoaquin December 9, 2008 at 3:43 am
