Babel: Magnificent Seven!

Finally got to know why 7️⃣ is a top favourite number! And its PSH’s favorite too ! 👍🏻👍🏻

Now that you have mentioned the Number 7️⃣ it was rather intriguing read for me why 7️⃣ is considered a top favourite number in a recent poll! Broadly summarising the explanation by Author Alex Bellos which appeared in a Magazine article, 7️⃣’s triumph reaffirms mankind’s fascination that goes back ages ago, and the fascination is the effect and not the cause of the obsession of 7️⃣

Per Bellos, 7️⃣ is a stone cold rebel that follows no rules but its own. It’s the only number we can count on our hands, one to ten, which can’t be divided or multiplied with the group.

One, two, three, four and five can each be doubled to reach two, four, six, eight and ten. Nine is divisible by three.
It’s 7️⃣ then, the only number between two and ten which is neither a multiple nor a factor of the others. Hence, 7️⃣ is seen as lucky, for it stands on its own, unique, a loner, the outsider.

Now it makes me wonder whether Sihoo-ssi’s choice for 7 as his favourite number stems from his knowledge of the significance of this unique number. In any case, he as a K Actor has for years firmly stamped his association with 7️⃣ ( eg so many caps🧢 of his bear this number 7️⃣) so anyone else now wishing to adopt 7️⃣ as their favourite no, will just be a cc 😺😺

“A good actor is somebody who can be truthful and fascinating and interesting, and enlightening.”[Bruce Davidson]. Can we afford these qualities to the “Seven Magnificents” in the new drama “Babel” ? I think they are not only real stars, they are personalities. As actors, they are agents of change. They can change the world. These “Seven Magnificents” will reveal in their acting as there’s an art to being a good actor, there is an art to being a celebrity. And their magic doesn’t come from within the director’s mind. It comes from within their hearts. .For these “Seven Magnificents” , and not only, I’m waiting with impatience January 27, 2019, the day when “Babel ” will be on .Good luck especially to our Magnificent Actor Park Si Hoo!

I hope that the joy and pleasure of seeing his Park Sihoo would match the expectation drama Babel.

Babel has a top cast, and I hope that PD will direct very well, in such a way that Babel to be the best drama for this year. In the filmography of director Yoon Sung Sik there is a drama whose screenplay has attracted my attention: The Slingshot (A Man’s Story, 2009, KBS); is about a wronged hero who gets himself thrown in jail, then formulates the ultimate plan for vengeance by enlisting the help of a few prison buddies to form a team, and beating the villain at his own game. In the blink of an eye, the hero loses everything dear to him. His father’s company goes bankrupt, his brother commits suicide, his girlfriend leaves him, and he himself ends up in jail for a crime he didn’t commit. While in prison, he learns that all of this was brought about by corporation head, who devised the scam that brought down his father. Determined to beat him at his own game, the main character sets out to get revenge, no matter the cost. More and more people are pulled into the unforgiving battle of wits as stakes are raised, secrets are revealed, and love turns into a weapon. This drama won Best Drama Series at the 2009 Seoul International Drama Awards. (Wikipedia)
