Dong Bang Shin Ki

There was a bit of sunshine on the red carpet but no secrets. At least none that we know of.

At the Sixth Korean Film Awards, the night belonged to Secret Sunshine (밀양) with Cannes award winner for Best Actress Jeon Do-yeon, co-star Song Kang ho and director, Lee Chang-dong.  Korean-as-a-second-language hottie Daniel Henney was recognized for his English acting skills in his portrayal of adopted son in My Father and the no-show Song Hye-gyo nabbed the Best New Actress award for Hwangjini. Also, Shim Hyung-rae’s disastrous over hyped film, D-War (aka Dragon Wars) managed to get a nod for its special effects.

However, on the red carpet, it was no secret that the queen of the night was Kim Hye-soo. The voluptuous star gave “fan service” by bringing out her assets.
Check out the red carpet video clip here and award winners and mega post of pictures after the jump.

Black & White

Korean fashion magazines are touting that black is back. Indeed, the
red carpet was awash with black and white - again. You would think that
if all the dresses are borrowed, the stars would be a bit more daring
in terms of color. Or maybe they were being respectful by not wearing
something flashy…

 

Chu Ja Hyun. Sparkle at the neckline to a boring black dress still makes it boring.

Han Chae Young looks washed out in this black. The dress would have been a stand-out if it was a brighter color. Too bad.

Kim Hyesoo’s assets need a post of their own. The
curvy star looks fabulous in this super simple but too long black
dress. Hope she didn’t fall or trip.

Kim Ji Soo. The sparkles have migrated to the bust area from Chu Ja-hyun’s dress.

Lee Hana. A very Elvira type dress. And what’s that on her head? This is not a wedding.

Song Yuna. Did I mention that yellow was difficult to wear? This is especially true if the colors are that of a bumble bee.

Son Yeh Jin and Kim Myung Min. Not feeling the
underwire on the dress…the straps make it interesting though. Again,
another dress that would look better if it were a brighter color. This
is getting depressing.

Hyun Young. The plain cream dress frames her neckline nicely, but the dress is average.

Jo Eun Ji.This woman needs a makeover. First, her
bowl cut does not flatter her face. Second, the white dress has
pictures of women at the bottom. Third, black stockings and sheer white
dress do not go together. F.Y.I, it was not that cold last night -
about 10 c.

Kim Ajoong looks fabulous in this black n’ white satin gown! Her makeup is also flawless.

Color

Finally, some color! Although the favorite color of the evening was
red, the dresses, for the most part, should have stayed in the closet.
However, Jun Do-yeon’s moss green satin dress was gorgeous.

 

Kwak Ji Min. A simple red dress that would lovelier with better accessories.

 

Lee Young Eun. Too much. This looks like an Andre Kim creation. Enough said.

Son Tae Young. Not sure what to make out of this dress. Seems to be Missoni inspired.  Something I would not have chosen. The Ralph Lauren dress worn by Kim A-joong at the Daejong Awards was a better pick.

Jun Hae Jin. This should have stayed in the closet.

Jun Do Yeon.Gorgeous moss green dress! Usually, anything bulking up the shoulders is a no-no, but on this dress, it works.

Kim Hyun Sook. The color is very pretty. The fit is great. But… the top of the dress bothers me.

Kim Min Sun. The thin straps on
the back of the dress are sexy but the color, a drab purple, looks like
an ajuma color. Better if the dress was black.

Kim Taehee. Depending on the
screen, this navy-purple dress is a perfect fit on top, but the length
of the dress is about 30 cm short of being classy. Besides, it’s just
too tight to be that short. This would look better on a sexier diva
such as Lee Hyori.

Lee Hye Young. Another closet
dress. We know that Lee Hye-young still has a great figure and she has
the haughty air to pull off the dress worn by Lee Hana above. Even Lee Hana’s hat would look good on her.

Lee Yun Hee.This purple empire waist dress works on her because she is so thin.  The dress look very comfortable, but that’s about it.

Oh Seung Eun. Hmmm. First, I would
never be caught dead in this copper color. Second, what’s going on at
the top of her dress? What are those frilly things?

The Gents

High shine was the theme for the gentlemen at the Korean Film
Awards. If you haven’t noticed, the greater male working population in
Korea is wearing shiny suits. So I guess, the male celebrities are
leading the way.

Daniel Henney. Such a handsome man but such a bad navy suit. The suit looks polyester and borrowed from his dad’s closet.

Jang Gun Suk. Man, this guy has packed on the makeup but the hat pulls this look together.

Ji Hyun Woo. Wow, an interesting
fashion statement. The weather was not that cold so the scarf served no
purpose than to add to the sparkley black suit.

Jo In Sung also has dipped into the color lotion for this event.  The effeminate star looks great in the classic black suit with bow-tie.

Jo Min Ki looks awkward.

Joo Jin Mo. Sexy Joo Jin-mo is slithery in this ultra shiny black suit.  The man look better in jeans.

Jung Il Woo is too much black and too much shine (including his shirt!).

Jung Kyung Ho wears another shiny purple/black suit.  Can’t wait until this trend dies.

Lee Sun Kyun and Oh Man Suk are all black except for the white bow tie and handkerchief. Did I mention that class is best?

Shim Hyung-rae represents the working ajasshs of the Korea in this shiny gray suit.

Outcasts

 

Andre Kim. Now we know his real color, and it’s not baby white.

Jo Won Suk. Ridiculous.
