Kim Hyun Joong Sexy Fighter Shin Jung Tae










Kim Hyun Joong's masterpiece abs revealed, "keeping my body in shape with meat and vegetables"
Hyun Joong: Since in 1930 there's no fitness equipment & protein supplements like now, I build a strong body realistically by eating meat & veggies.
So in the drama you might see me & think, 'his body isn't that good' but I hope you know that I build my body while considering the era

For action scenes we fight for real than using special equipment. In each shooting I got bruise,but you'll feel the real action in 1930.

★★★ SPECIAL POST: IG Showcase Hints ★★★



At the IG Showcase held in December, GF Row shared some of her observations. 


The first one was when a media member asked something about HJ'S character in IG comparing it to his previous character in BOF.



HJ included 'Playful Kiss' in his answer.  Umm... why were you thinking of PK?  Did it remind you of its press conference?  Were you wishing that the girl sitting next to you is your #shesmylife instead?  hehehe

HJ's answer to another topic, kind of left me confused but aren't we used to his way of answering anyway.  kekeke  (To save space, I'll share text of the reporter's question, HJ's answer and a screencap with the hint.)  


One of the reporter asked: 

The plot is set in Shanghai, in 1930’s.  That’s very unique.  What’s your impression of Shanghai in 1930s?  What’s your impression of this city’s historical background?  And, the other question is that because of this drama’s historical background, many people think of “Age of Wild Men” from 10 years ago.  What’s the differentiation between your character and Jae Mo Ahn’s character? 


HJ's reply was:

I don’t think there’s much difference between 1930’s and this age.  There are always all kinds of people.  As I shoot this drama, I don’t think there’s any special emotion unique to 1930s.  Also, Shanghai in 1930s is said to precede Korea by 50 years.  I’ve been shooting until last morning.



And there was M&M chocolate as a prop. 

This made me raised an eyebrow as M&M is one of my favorite candy and have read its history.  Some facts in Wikipedia are as follows:





  1. M&M's originated in the United States in 1941, and are now sold in as many as 100 countries.
  2.  Forrest Mars, Sr., son of the founder of the Mars Company Frank C. Mars, invented the idea for the candy in the 1930s during the Spanish Civil War when he saw soldiers eating chocolate pellets with a hard shell of tempered chocolate surrounding the inside, preventing the candies from melting. 
  3.  Mars received a patent for his own process on March 3, 1941.[2] Production began in 1941 in a factory located at 285 Badger Avenue in Clinton Hill, Newark, New Jersey


The Investors.com info vouched the same info from Wikipedia - that Forrest Mars invented the recipe for M&Ms chocolate during the Spanish Civil War.  However, patent for his manufacturing process on March 3, 1941


Not to discredit anyone but it appears someone didn't do their homework.  How can there be props of M&M from 1930s at the drama when it wasn't introduced until 1941? 

Personally, I'm curious to see if there really is a 1930s prop of M&M in the drama.  I'm also curious why a brand of candy?  Why not a brand of beer or car -- things men can relate to.  


I think HJ was playfully hinting who was in his mind during the showcase and that's none other than his #shesmylife; *cough-MM-cough*.  ^-^
