Up & Down!

UP! Hyun Bin

The cause of 'Joo Won ache' Hyun Bin. His popularity from the SBS drama "Secret Garden" as department store owner Kim Joo-won continued throughout the drama until ater it.

His commercials raised millions and billions of earnings and the unsure movie "Late Autumn" managed to shine thanks to Hyun Bin's popularity. Then his volunteer to join the Marines even drew in male fans and he became a syndrome. Even now when he is just a regular soldier everything he does is a matter of issue to the public.

UP! Cha Seung-won

In the midst of loneliness after Hyun Bin left for the Marines, Korea cheered at the appearance of "The Greatest Love" Dok go-jin, Cha Seung-won.

In the drama he is a strong personality perfectionist top star Dok Go-jin. He then falls in love with a previous idol star Goo Ae-jeong and shows her all his love. Being cool about everything and being unable to stand injustice he expressed righteous indignation in the drama, getting him popularity from women.

Cha Seung-won showed charismatic action in the SBS drama "ATHENA" but the drama wasn't a huge success. However his next drama "The Greatest Love" succeeded greatly and he is now at the peak of his life for the second time.

UP! Kim Tae-hee

With the beauty of a goddess but always in the issue with her acting was Kim Tae-hee. She succeeded in winning favors from many in the MBC drama "My Princess" playing the real princess.

She also got rid of the mysterious woman image and transformed into the comic, lovely and friendly actress. Shining far away like a lonesome 'star' Kim Tae-hee had approached fans more 'humanly'.

DOWN! Jeong Woo-seong

Back in home screens in 15 years with SBS drama "ATHENA", Jeong Woo-seong faced decrease as the drama wasn't so successful.

Jeong Woo-seong met Lee Ji-ah through "ATHENA" and developed into a relationship. After their dating pictures were revealed in February, they admitted to their relationship and he became the cool guy. However, the Lee Ji-ah and Seo Taiji marriage – divorce case made him the most pitiful guy of all. In the end they broke up not long after their relationship announcement.

DOWN! Yoon Eun-hye

Seemingly strong in dramas with "Princess Hours" and "Coffee Prince", Yoon Eun-hye attempted at another drama this time, "Lie to Me" but couldn't shine with the one-digit rating.

Yoon Eun-hye played the role of Gong Ah-jeong with Kang Ji-hwan as Hyeon Ki-joon in "Lie to Me". However, the lie of marriage in the drama which was the main concept behind the drama didn't buy in to the viewers and she was even pointed out that her role and her fashion in the drama didn't go well together.

Lee Ji-ah, poses as Seo Taiji's big fan why?

According to fans Lee Ji-ah was at former husband and singer Seo Taiji's concert once and yelled "I love you".

Shocking news of the 5.5 billion won lawsuit against Seo Taiji by Lee Ji-ah is spreading. Criticism about the fact that they hid truth about their marriage for so long and that they cheated the public is also getting stronger. Even after admitting to the divorce and making a public statement, Lee Ji-ah is still a hot potato.

The recent Lee Ji-ah who claims to have exclusively filed for divorce in 2006 is quite unacceptable. In the report she spread to various media is that she spent 6 years alone in America when Seo Taiji returned to Korea in 2000 to be active in his singing career once again. This sounds like she's saying Seo Taiji neglected her for 6 years and she was filing for divorce at the end of a long wait.

After having divorced with Seo Taiji, Lee Ji-ah became famous for the lead-like role in 2007 MBC drama"The Legend". She used the name Lee Ji-ah instead of her real name Kim Ji-ah and even fooled her age. She hid her information so well that even her management didn't know this truth. She had hidden everything about herself in fear that news of the ex-wife of Seo Taiji getting out.

However, her actions from the year 2009 are unacceptable. According to her, 2009 is when the divorce was taken into effect but in March of the same year, she attended Seo Taiji's concert in Seoul. Fans who saw her then said she yelled "I love you! I love you captain" in a concert feedback.

Lee Ji-ah who kept silent at her education fraud issue just because she didn't want her information being revealed, exposing herself like that is beyond common sense. Her management then tried explaining that "She did go to his concert. After the divorce. However their relationship wasn't like it is now then so she attended the concert" but there is no persuasive power.

On the cable TV program "The Show" on November 28th of 2011, Lee Ji-ah exposed herself as if hinting to Seo Taiji fans. Fans know very well that the café which she used as the shooting location belonged to Seo Taiji Company and also revealed that the picture Seo Taiji uploaded on his official homepage in September of that year was her mascot and drew the same picture.

About this, fans say, "In 2009 she had got her divorced like she wanted to but she keeps circling around him like she still had feelings for him", "She could've have just quietly watched his concert like the others but she looks like she was crazy to let everyone know about her existence", "I don't understand if she just enjoys thrills or rioting against Seo Taiji".

She also took part in a session in 2009 as a bass with the rock band Doctor Core 911 which Seo Taiji has a deep relationship with. She released a song named 'Vampire Romance' in 2010 but the lyrics are full of meanings. The part, "The world that had you captured and fooled in an endless darkness", overlaps them as long as the truth about the two of them is out.

Lee Ji-ah filed for lawsuit on January 19th in 2011 and had two hearings in March and April through legal lawyers. For what reason did Lee Ji-ah have to break out of the shell she was so tightly hidden in, to sue her former husband and what does she want from him? The self ego that she lost while living as Seo Taiji's wife? Seo Taiji's feelings for her that are no longer there? Or 5.5 billion won worth of possessions?

* This drama getting interesting these days... every time I checked on Korean entertainment news... their life is parade almost every where... well of coz including here. Since Seo Taiji has not even once make any statement... makes me wonder what does 'The Legend' think about this. As for Lee Ji ah, I don't know if blaming her will change the fact that she was once married to Seo Taiji. (well she have weird personality if you read the above article... hmmm)

I love her acting skills can't even doubt that. I even get excited knowing she is dating Jung Woo Sung... but now... I think they really need more time. I don't think I'm ready to read another news about broken relationship or family...

Lee Ji-ah dress, "Seo Taiji" was it a sign?

Lee Ji-ah? There is!

Singer Seo Taiji's (39 Jeong Hyeon-cheol) former wife and actress Lee Ji-ah (33 Kim Ji-ah) inscribed the letters Seo Taiji on the dress she personally made.

On the dress she wore to the end of the year MBC Awards in 2007 were the letters "Leejiatoes". It reads "Lee Jia's toes".

As the truth that they were once married came out, netizens read the lettering the other way round, which then reads "seotaijee" without the "L".

Previously some netizens even suggest that Seo Taiji might've named her stage name for her too.

Many netizens say 'seo tai ji' backwards spells 'I ji a' so he might've given her the name "Lee Ji-ah".

Her management explained that wasn't true.

Meanwhile, Lee Ji-ah and Seo Taiji got married in America in 1997 and Lee Ji-ah filed for divorce in 2006. She then filed for alimony and division of possessions in January for the amount of 5.5 billion won.
