Oh yes...the Bath House Ladies. I love this little collection. The woman here was on for less than a minute, but she leaves a definite impression. She's so good.

Super Model

Asia Model Festival Awards
January 15, 2009

There is an excellent article by Javabeans posted at Dramabeans regarding this event.

I have referred to Oh Ji Ho as Super Model here more as an honorary title than a reality.

Modeling has been a longstanding occupation for him, in fact however, he is a man for all seasons, which made itself more and more evident as he branched out into other areas (acting, singing, spokesperson, amusing TV guest, dedicated amateur baseball player, and so on).

At this point, his obvious love for baseball has been dominant in various commentaries, and at his own blog.

But aside from steady modeling work with Tremolo, he has been active in charity functions as a model also,

and on January 15, 2009, culled an award at the Asia Models Festival Awards as a Model Star. I’m not sure what makes Han Ji-hye and Oh Ji Ho Model Stars more than other actors getting awards but there you have it.

After reading the news articles (translated insanely by automated service) I was confused. After reading Javabeans’ easy to understand commentary, I am still confused. But that’s Korea for you. You gotta love it.

I grew up hearing a show business axiom: Any publicity is better than no publicity. Whatever gets your face in the news is getting your face in the news.

Cool Series 1

In 2001 KBS aired a miniseries called "Cool". Oh Ji Ho had a part as a "co-worker" for a wedding planning company.

Miniseries "Cool"
Aired on KBS Jul. 9-Aug. 28/2001
Oh Ji Ho as PhilipSuh
NOTE:data from KoreanWiz

There is scarcely any further information regarding this long gone program. I think it was favorably received by viewers however, since I have seen stray comments here and there regarding him in the role of Philip Suh.
NOTE: as the name of the character is in English, I have listed it in the Anglicized manner.

The following photos are from various sources. They were found so long ago, I have no idea of their origin.

Cool Series 2

There is YouTube clip posted by zionizm. It is approximately 10 minutes long. It is the last part of the "Cool Series". You will find it directly below.

I made some screen caps for anyone not wishing to view the clip due to slow Internet connection, or any other reason for that matter.
SPOILER
Philip does not seem pleased by the conversation. For those not interested or able to view the clip, he gets disgusted and walks out on the group.

There is a time lag on the soundtrack, but considering how scarce this is, it's worth gold.


I hope you have enjoyed this series.

Indonesia

The earthquakes that have been taking place in Indonesia over several days have caused great hardship for many.

There are losses of loved ones, homes, employment. Many are injured, and not least of all, suffering from the shock of the upheavals.

This site has numerous Indonesian visitors. I am so sorry for your troubles, and hope you will come through it all.

For those who have suffered the loss of family members, and loved ones, I send my deepest sympathy.

If you live in a country that has made appeals for donations to aid Indonesia, please give what you can to help.
