Did Jang Keun Suk and Yoona Really Fall in Love?

KBS2’s Love Rain is nearing its end, and Jang Keun Suk and Yoona are now closer than ever. They’ve become so close in fact, that curious eyes continue to wonder whether the two really are going out with each other.

 

 

A rep from Love Rain said, “Jang Keun Suk and Yoona won’t stop laughing when they’re together. I think they could be mistaken as lovers.”

Jang Keun Suk and Yoona are currently pouring all their effort into looking like lovers, filming kiss scenes and dates scenes in Hongdae.

When photos from such shoots were released, fans started wondering whether the two really weren’t dating. Their close friendship shown on set lent strength to the rumors.

The rep denied, “You can be mistaken. I think we should just think the rumors are a form of interest. I think such stories came up because of their actual friendship and their acting in the drama. On set, however, it’s not just the two that are close; Seo In Guk, Kim Si Hoo, Kim Young Gwang, everyone is close. Everyone’s such good friends and they’re all similar in age so I guess that’s why such rumors came up.”

The rep finished, “Many say that the air on set won’t be good because the viewership ratings are so low, but it’s actually pretty good. All of the actors are working hard so please send in your support.”

“The actor who multiplies that value 10 billion times.”

Actor Jang Geun Suk has proven his strong power. On the eve of the grand finale of KBS2 Monday and Tuesday drama “Love Rain” starring by him, he makes the calculator very busy. Counting only broadcasting rights export fees and advertising sales, the totaled amount exceeded 50 billion South Korean won (about 42.8 million US dollar). Comparing with national average viewership ratings of 5% (based on AGB Nielson media research), the result rises by 10 billion times.

“Love Rain” is the drama starring by Jang Geun Suk who is known as “new Hallyu” and “Star of Asia.” It has received the attention of overseas markets at a very early stage. The drama is exported to Japan before the broadcast began for about 9 billion South Korean won (about 7.7 million US dollar), setting the highest record domestically for about 4500 million South Korean won per episode (about USD $385000 per episode).

At the same time, the drama is exported to 12 countries including China, Thailand, other Asian countries, United States and some European countries. It’s speculated that excluding Japan, the per episode price for the export contract signed is about 110 million South Korean won (about USD $94,150). Thus, with 12 countries and 20 episodes, the amount tallies to 36 billion South Korean won (about 30.82 million US dollar) value of export, plus Japan’s 9 billion South Korean won totaled 45 billion South Korean won (about 38.5 US dollar) sales volume. 

At the same time, advertising revenue cannot be ignored. According to an official of AGB Nielson Media Research company in the phone interview with Sports Hankooki, “The ads were completely sold in episode 1 and 2, were sold 90% in episode 3 and 4, and were sold 80% from episode 5 to episode 18.” 

“Love Rain” is selling each ads at about 13.2 million South Korean won (about USD $11300) for the 28 advertising slots of each episode. If assuming the ads selling rate for episode 19 and 20 is also 80%, and total number of ads slots is 456, and advertising sales revenue is hitting 6 billion South Korean won (about 5.12 million US dollar).

An official of KBS drama bureau said in the phone interview with Sports Hankooki, “It’s all thanks to Jang Geun Suk and Girls’ Generation member YoonA who are in the center of K-Pop euphoria, only that it’s a pity for the low viewership ratings.”

Jang Geun Suk is filming the TV series until May 28th, 2012. After the end of the drama, he will begin his overseas activities. The first Japanese album “Just CRAZY” is planned, and the “The Cri Show2″ concert tour is scheduled to begin in July in Japan, China, Taiwan, Thailand and other Asian countries.

Love Rain Episode 17 Quick Summary

“Do you really have nothing to say to me?”asked Joon. “I want to go together,” said Ha Na. Joon approached Ha Na and hugged him. He took her hand and they both left. His mother apparently didn’t recognize it was Joon and Ha Na on the bridge. The couple really escaped.

Meanwhile In Ha and Yoon Hee had their friendly reunion. “Are you really okay?” asked In Ha. Suddenly Hye Jeong came, saying she worried that In Ha gave her no news. “Let’s talk,” she said. Yoon Hee tried to convince her that she and In Ha would continue to be friends. Yoon Hee said Hye Jeong had nothing to do with her relationship with In Ha, and she doesn’t wish to see her again. “But I hope one day, we can see each other as friends,” said Yoon Hee.

Hye Jeong didn’t stop there, she told In Ha she had something to talk to him.She asked In Ha about Joon. “You may never be my man, but Joon is my son,”said Hye Jeong. “Is it true that you give up your marriage because you want to start over with Joon?”

Joon and Ha na arrived at a house and they just planned to spend their time together without thinking anything else. Joon just hugged Ha Na from the back and then they really spent their quality time joyfully. They went to the market together and one of the seller ladies thought they’re newlywed. “Now, here, we’re just going to think about us,” said Joon.

Later that night Joon cooked for both of them and they both wear the clothes they bought in the market. Then the conversation about the historical diamond snow, but Ha Na said she had forgotten it. “You even threw away my ring,” said ha Na. Apparently, Joon still kept Ha Na’s ring as his necklace pendant.

Yoon Hee just realized that Ha Na wasn’t around. Her co-worker told her that she left with a boyfriend, who was not TAe Seong. Yoon Hee made a call to Ha Na. And just like any other kids, Ha Na made a lie using school as her excuse. “Ha Na, are you okay?” asked Yoon Hee, worried. “Yes, I’m okay,” said Ha Na. Tae Seong came and Yoon Hee had the right person to ask about Ha Na’s boy friend. Tae Seong told her that he knew about Ha Na’s boyfriend.

Ha Na and Joon were talking outside the swinging bench. “What should we do now?” asked Ha Na. “Let’s reveal ourselves,”said Joon. Then suddenly rain came pouring. Ha Na asked him to go inside, but Joon just stood there in the rain.

Yoon Hee went into Ha Na’s room and she checked on Ha Na’s pocket camera. She finally saw Joon and Ha Na’s picture and figured out everything. She finally understood In Ha’s heartbreak for himself and for their children.

Ha Na woke up alone and then went outside to find Joon. He’s standing on the bridge having a deep contemplation about their destiny and their future. Ha Na put on her ring on Joon’s finger. “No matter what, you’re always be the first for me,” said Ha Na. And then they hugged.

Yoon Hee waited for the children to come home. She watched how Joon was saying good bye to Ha Na, but she turned right away feeling uncomfy.

Hye Jeong came to Joon’s place because she’s looking for her son. She came to talk about his father’s cancelation of his marriage. “Is it true he did it because of you?” she asked. “What’s the reason? Why?”

Yoon Hee said she really wanted to see Ha Na’s boy friend, but she didn’t tell her that she already knew about her and Joon. Ha Na came to see Tae Seong in the morning because she knew he told his mother about her boy friend. Tae Seong said he worried about her. Ha Na told him that now she couldn’t think of another man but Joon. “I’m sorry, Senior.” On her way out, Ha Na met Hye Jeong. From her conversation with Tae Seong, Joon’s mother finally realized that Ha Na was a gardenist.

Yoon Hee came down to In Ha’s place. She helped In Ha cleaning his studio, insisted, saying that she always wanted to do it. In Ha kept a book that brought back Yoon Hee’s memories. When In Ha came back, she returned her engagement ring. She finally told In Ha that she knew about the children. She said that for the past 30 years she had lived loving In Ha in her heart, but she really wanted their children to be happy together.It hurt, but it was what parents had to do for their children. In Ha agreed to her.

Joon and Ha Na just did their relationship as casual as other young couples. They set appointment about how their should spend time together and what they should eat.And the next day, Joon came down her house and brought chocolate as she requested.Ha Na asked joon if he had fix his relationship with his father. Joon said no, he’s not.

The next day, Ha Na came down to meet In Ha. She gave her a bucket of flower. Ha Na thanked him for understanding her situation with Joon. Meanwhile joon came down to the greenhouse to meet Yoon Hee. In the same time, she saw Yoon Hee dropped her things and noticed there’s something wrong with her eyesight when she just walked pass her.
