It came out late last week in the Korean press that “Love After Love” which had Park Sihoo-ssi and Yoon Eunhye-ssi in the leading roles would postpone its theatre release till next year. There were differences in the reports on when exactly – February or March, so date yet to be confirmed.
A disappointment for Park Sihoo-ssi and his fans for sure as they were so looking forward to seeing the movie on the big screen. But then, it really doesn’t matter if it were love before or love afterwards. As loyal fans, we would be right there to support the movie and to support him, whenever and wherever it is shown! Right, ladies?!!!
What is important is to find the most appropriate timing to increase the probability of success for the movie. From what I have seen, heard, learned and experienced of the entertainment business, it is high risk and many factors play a part in determining its outcome. The best of everything – the director, the producer, the actors, the marketing, the distribution, you name it, might not ensure success. It can boil down to simply timing and luck!
So, given current circumstances and conditions, it might not be in the interest and at the best moment in the eyes of the industry professionals for the movie release. They should know best, particularly with their ambition to market in Korea, Japan and China almost simultaneously.
Whether it is love before or love afterwards, what matters is success. Success for Park Sihoo-ssi’s return and for the movie box office. So we can wait!
Park Sihoo-ssi, fighting!
More on “Love After Love”
The Chinese backers for the movie continued to share a little more of the plot of “Love After Love” through their Weixin account. Thank you!
The story as we know so far: Park Sihoo-ssi played Kim Sungjoon, a pilot grounded due to a hearing problem. Disheartened, he wallowed in self pity and went into a match-made marriage with Eunhong, played by Yoon Eunhye-ssi. During their marriage, he treated his wife with indifference. However, his wife passed away in a tragic accident and that was when he discovered love afterwards. He discovered how much he loved his wife and missed her thoughtfulness and loving care of him.
Packing her things after her death, he found out that she kept a secret, that of a first love, deep love. He decided to fulfil her wishes and return her ashes to her first love, who was supposedly residing in Jeju.
During his journey, what he discovered was even more tragic! He was his wife’s first and only love. They knew each other as children and she had always loved him, only that he did not recognize her. With love lost, never to return, what remained for him were only memories…
I am sure, as always, Park Sihoo-ssi had put in his personal best to perfect his role. So be prepared to cry buckets of tears for another of his excellent performance in “Love after Love” during and afterwards.
思念爱,珍惜爱!
上周,韩媒报道由朴施厚和伊恩惠参演的电影“思念爱”的上映将延迟到明年。韩媒报道的上映时间有差异 , 有些说2月或3月,所以日期还没确定。
这消息当然令施厚君和他的粉丝们感到失望,因为大家都在期待着。但不管是“爱后”前或“爱后”后,作为忠实的厚粉,我们会一直等候,一样的支持!姐妹们,对吗?
重要的是找到最适当的时间,加强电影成功的概率。从我所看到的,听到的,学习过的和经验过的,娱乐业是个高风险的投资,有许多因素可以影响作品的成果。作品可以拥有最好的一切, 如导演,制片人,演员,营销,分销地点,能想到的都是最佳的,可是,作品并非确保成功。可能还需要最简单的时机和运气!
因此,考虑到当前的环境和条件,在行内人的眼里,现在并非是最好的时间来上映。他们应该最清楚,特别是他们有着野心,希望在韩国,日本和中国同时上映。
无论是之前或之后,重要的是确保成功。施厚君成功的回归和电影票房大卖。因此,我们铁粉可以一直等待,守候!
施厚君,Fighting!

中国的制作方在他们的微信继续分享更多关于“思念爱”的情节。感谢制作方的大力支持!
到目前为止,所知道的是: 施厚君饰演金成俊,一名因为听力有问题,被调职的飞行员。心灰意冷的他,沉湎于自怜,后来通过牵线婚姻,娶了伊恩惠饰演的恩红为妻。在妻子陪伴在身边时对她冷漠,没有意识到她对自己有多重要,直到因为悲惨的事故,她离开后才追悔莫及。她离去后,整理她的物件时,他发觉了妻子有个秘密,她一直深深的爱着她的初恋。为了帮她完成心愿,他决定把她的骨灰送回给她居住在济州岛的初恋。
在过程中,他发现了更悲惨烈的事情!发现他和爱妻年少时候曾相遇,彼此倾心,妻子视自己为初恋,一直深深的爱着他,只是他自己没认出她。 此时已晚,失去的再也不能挽回,留下的只是回忆了…
我相信施厚君以他一贯的作风,一定是非常投入角色。所以准备好“思念爱”上映时,为施厚君演的金成俊和失去的爱大哭一场吧。

안녕하세요. 좋은 하루가 시작되는 생활을 활기찬 시간으로 보내시길 바라겠습니다. “항상 건강하시고 당신을 응원하며 사랑합니다.”
Good morning. Good day, I will be living at or send to a lively start time. “Always healthy and cheer you and I love you.”
Heartbreaking storyline…prepare the tissue plz.
Although the release of “LAL” has been postponed for 2016, we can’t do anything. Just to wait, though I’m sorry. “Expectation is the mother of frustation” and to free us from the expectations of others lies the great and singular power of self-respect. So , we’ll wait patiently the high time when producers will release the movie. and we’ll support PSH ‘s performance in a dramatic role. Because , I think that what makes him fascinating in this intricate movie is the conflict, it’s drama, it’s the human conditions. How he deals the conflict will show us the kind of person , the main characte, is. As nobody wants to watch perfection. But if the main hero has the courage to ask questions, to avoid misunderstanding,even if he is hurt, he finally can completely trasform his life. And I think this is the message of the movie. And I’ll love the main character and the actor ,who interprets the main role, PSH, even before and after I’ll watch the movie.
I agree absolutely!
