One year ago today, in 2015, it was a Monday. I was feeling the blues on a Monday morning. Very listless, nothing inspiring or motivating me. It was a bad case of Monday Blues!
By mid day, my whole perspective changed! It was a 180 degree about turn! I was jumping for joy! Tearing with joy! My heart filled to the brim with happiness! After a long expanse of almost three years, I just heard the best news ever! One which I, along with all Park Sihoo-ssi’s fans, have awaited a long, long time for!
Our hero returned! Our hero returned to Korean drama and Korean entertainment! We were so exuberant then! We were on top of the world!
One year on, today. We are again waiting. Waiting for some good news of yet another work of Park Sihoo-ssi! Yes, we loved every minute of his drama “Local Hero” (“Neighborhood Hero”) and the first half of the year has had so many high points. From visiting Park Sihoo-ssi on his location shoot for his drama, to his birthday party in Buyeo, to his first ever Tokyo “Live” concert in May 2016! Come 11 September 2016, we will be seeing him in Miyazaki in Japan! And again on 7 October 2016 we will be having a rollicking good time out in the open air at his Sky and Sea outdoor seaside concerts in Odaiba, Tokyo. And if the Chinese fans can get their acts together, we will also have a Chinese fan meeting in Jeju, Korea at the end of November 2016, event and date to be confirmed. Fighting, Chinese fans! Let us make it happen!
But, I and I think I say on behalf of most, if not all Park Sihoo-ssi fans, that nothing will beat the sheer exuberance of hearing of his next project! And we all hope it will be a drama. A Korean drama with one of the three main Korean broadcasting stations! It is about time too! It is about time that Korea welcomes back into its mainstream, gives recognition and covets one of its most outstanding and deserving actors. One she should be so proud to call her son!
One year on…and we are all waiting with abated breath! We want our hero back again and soon! We want to feel again the same joy and jubilation! We want to see Park Sihoo-ssi back again at the very top in Korean entertainment!

Oh Gosh Nance, now that I read your this article, then only I come to realise his 1st come back news is today last year!! After THREE long years of time out. Imagine!! Gees!! I am now even more convinced that the cosmic vibes had been at work when it comes to me crossing his path. It was same week this time I took the sunset burst photo on Bob my dog, which we all now call any sunbeam bursts photos the PSH’s shots because fans noticed those exceptionally well taken sunbeam shots of his! (but hey I took similar sunset burst before I knew him, same week I came to know him). Oh my! And YES YES YES, we speculate and pray hard that his next news is comeback on one of the 3 main K channels. Oh Please Please, this is absolutely possible. Come on South Korea, time to honour and capitalise your best export to the world!
We are waiting for good news with a new project for a long time, but eventually it all comes good news. Well, I liked very much “Local hero” who was a creative role and a high quality of our beloved PSH. The show had all asked us much because it was much suspense, was a director’s work to great effect but no PSH was not far behind, but was raised to the maximum level in the project. It has many qualities that any serial would be romantic, historic or creative will cope successfully and will receive much admiration and support. We do not know which is his desire PSH nor his team, but I have a feeling that will make us a pleasant surprise how soon. In this awaited good news to give him all the support, admiration, our appreciation. Good luck admirable actor PSH.
What’s another year? I remember the news came unexpectedly after a long time of waiting. PSH’s next project with one of the 3 Kchannels would be the cherry on the cake. Waiting patiently, but please PSH, don’t prolong the waiting time for too long!
There comes a point in our life when we realize how quickly time goes by, how qiuckly it has gone. 8/24/2015 was a moment of glory for PSH, when he was cast in his first role, in a K.drama representing his come back to K. entertainment after three years of hope and wait. He has followed his fate, and has geen granted happiness, recognition, success, reputation in his drama “Local Hero”.
“Time is the longest distance between two places.”[Tennessee Williams]. And I’l add , the longest distance between two dates, 8/24/2015 t0 8/24/2016. And today we realize that there’s never enough time to do all the things we want. Although , as Nance mentiones, that PSH has been busy during this period of time with lot of other “many high points”. He dares not to waste an hour of his time , as he has discovered the value of his life. His career, meaning his performance, and his acting that can move his viewers emotionally, meaning a form of excellence for him. All these give him a sense of pride and accomplishment. That’s why , as time goes by so quickly , we are expecting his pride and accomplishment to be revealed again in a new role, that he quite fits the part gorgeously, as usual. We are expecting the main K. broadcasting stations to remember the value of one of their most talented actors, PSH, and cast him in an unforgettable drama, in which PSH personal value is also very much attached to box office revenue, not only his artistic success. PSH’s main concern is his interest in changing the lives of others , behaving with politeness of the heart and gentleness of the spirit. One year has gone by, let’s come the moment when we’ll be again on top of the world due to PSH’s new project !
One year ago today I knew nothing about PSH. I didn’t know such a person exists as over the years I have firmly kept my distance from K entertainment. One year on today, the position has taken an awesome 180% change.
The wonder of life. The saying we never know what’s in store for us next.
Bette late than never! Now your life will be so enriched 🙂
Though a newbie fan I seem to know him so well now, thanks to the sea of information on PSH in the social media, in particular through the articles faithfully posted by Nance in this website 6 days a week and the fantastic exchange of views and comments by the devoted bunch of sisterhood within this community who loves and supports this great Korean actor. I do love all his dramas and movies which I have watched so far – each one has been beautiful and memorable, further enhanced by PSH due to his incredible screen presence besides irresistible charm and charisma that cause hearts to flutter. Like so many of his loyal fans I long for the day when there is firm announcement of his next new drama project. Pretty soon please!
I do agree with you ,Wilma and Dorothy, and all PSH’s fans, that he should not prolong the waiting time for his new project too long. But on the other hand :”It does not take much strength to do things, but it requires a great deal of strength to decide what to do .” What should PSH have to do? The more people ask him to start a new project , the more difficult the project becomes, because he has to think twice to accept it or not. And I pity him, that at his status of a wellknown Hallyu Star he can’t accept , in my opinion, any kind of roles, just to satisfy his fans and play in any project he is offered to.. He can lose that insignificant role to play, but he can’t lose himself,. He can lose that role, but he doesn’t lose his dreams, his passion for acting, his vision. , his self-respect. He has more to gain, than what he has lost. He can gain our trust and respect, because he focuses on what’s the best for his new project. So, although I join you , I’ll try to have patience to wait for him to decide what’s the best project for him to accept in the future. And , I hope this will come as soon as possible.!
