Fan Bingbing is favored by Korean directors
Movie Network News(Compiler/Ben) According to South Korean media reports, the director of the Korean film popular in Asia, Guo Zairong, will direct the Chinese costume blockbuster "Yang Guifei".
"Yang Guifei" will focus on the story of the ups and downs of the life of Yang Yuhuan, a beautiful woman in the Tang Dynasty. According to Korean media reports, Yang Guifei will be played by Fan Bingbing, while Zhou Yunfa will play the role of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang. At present, the crew is still in contact with Japanese actor Oda Che Rang, hoping to invite him to star.
In addition to Guo Jae-yong, a large number of Korean directors have been exploring the overseas film market. In response, the Korea Film Promotion Committee held a "China Film Market Status and Career Briefing Session" on April 4 this year, and made it clear through the briefing that "the entire Asian film market is increasingly concerned about Korean films and their infrastructure. In addition to the greater Chinese market’s interest in Korean films, the demand for Korean actors, directors, film practitioners and scripts is increasing." The committee also stressed the need for the Korean film industry to expand the infrastructure of software and hardware to cope with the long-standing cooperation projects between the film industries of the two countries.
For the "Concubine Yang" directed by Guo Zairong, Korean public opinion has also given high attention. For the female lead actor Fan Bingbing, Korean media are even more generous with praise, directly calling him "the most beautiful woman in the Chinese circle". In this regard, some Korean netizens also said that they are very much looking forward to seeing Fan Bingbing play the shape of Concubine Yang.
Fan Bingbing’s popularity in South Korea has also been on the rise in recent years. In South Korean media reports, Fan Bingbing’s face shape and facial features were first interviewed by Jiang Minjun, director of a well-known plastic surgery hospital in South Korea. The director introduced that Fan Bingbing is a typical Cross Line, that is, the vertical line from the forehead to the nose to the chin and the horizontal line of the left and right cheeks parallel to the nose are very balanced, which not only looks very comfortable, but also leaves a good impression. Fan Bingbing’s face shape and facial features are also the beauty that most Korean women like and envy. And the director himself also said that he is very much looking forward to the ancient Chinese beautiful woman Yang Guifei photographed by Guo Zairong.
Then, Korean media also reported the details of Fan Bingbing, including her birthplace and age, and mentioned that she had starred in the golden lock in the popular Korean TV series "Huanzhu Gege" at the age of 18 (1998).
The work that brought Fan Bingbing into the eyes of Korean audiences again was her romantic comedy starring Zhang Ziyi and Su Zhixie. Recently, after taking on the work directed by Jiang Digui, the news of her cooperation with Zhang Dongjian has also been frequently reported in the newspapers, and she has become a Chinese actress that has attracted the attention of Korean media.
Fan Bingbing and Andy Lau were originally scheduled to go to South Korea on August 11 to promote the film’s release in South Korea, but due to the producer’s mistake, the promotion trip was cancelled. The concentrated coverage of the matter in the Korean media and the disappointment revealed in the words can be seen from Fan Bingbing’s popularity in South Korea.
