Hi, international fans.
We're from DCBH.

To celebrate Geun Young’s birthday on the 6th of May 2016, we are organizing a donation project.

As you all probably know, MGY has been to Malawi (Africa) as a volunteer.

The message MGY has left on her instagram after her return from Africa makes us think a lot.

Just as Geun Young has put effort, in her ways, providing the children in Malawi a better environment for them to grow up,

we thought there would be ways for us to participate in these good deeds.

As a result we decided to donate this project.

We would appreciate it if our internationals fans also participate for a good cause!


========================================================================


☞ Fundraising period: 2th of May till 18th of May

- based on the Korean time 18th of May is the deadline


☞ Paypal address: hbora90@gmail.com


☞ Fund transfer (to the organization): in the week of 23th May


☞ Donation organization: NGO 'Goodneighbors' international project fundings

→ The School of HOPE in Malawi (a region in Africa)

[KR] http://www.goodneighbors.kr/ [EN] http://en_goodneighbors.goodneighbors.kr/



At this moment the NGO 'Goodneighbors' is searching in divers field where many support are needed in the area of Malawi.

One of the project is the 'the School of HOPE' where MGY has recently visited as a volunteer. This will also be our donating project.

The transfer of the funding will take place in the week of 23th of May.

As the project begins after the broadcasting, it will take a while for getting the update about the project.

This could even take a few months depending on the progress.

It takes a few days transferring the money from Paypal to a Korean bankaccount.

After coming back from volunteering with Good Neighbors in Malawi, Moon Geun Young has finally posted on her Instagram account. Moons reflects on her experiences in her latest update. She writes,

"I went and came back safely and well.
I was ashamed of my life at times while facing good eyes and pure souls.
Then this helplessness, how I was unable to be any help, made my heart break.
I am finally trying to be concerned.
So their lives can get a little better. So they can be a little more healthy.
I will find the things I am able to do.
I want to protect their pure happiness, their flawless and clean smiles.
I ask to those of you who see these words. Even a very very small concern for them can be a great force. Take an interest in life that has been run over and buried. Together please protect the children’s bright smiles. I ask you, even a small interest.

[INTERVIEW] Actress Jin Ji-hee who played the younger version of Jung-Yi (Moon Geun Young) in "Goddess of Fire"

Q. You played the younger version of actress Moon Geun-young’s character. It must’ve felt different since Moon started as a child actor as well.

Jin: My role model changes all the time, but I set her as my new role model this time. She was very considerate, maybe because she experienced life as a child actor too, and has a huge passion for acting. I’ve come to want to learn all those things from her. When I first heard I would get to play the child version of her character, I was so happy. It was an honor.



Q. Moon had to go through growing pains as a child actor and you too, will have to experience it in the process of becoming an adult. What are your thoughts on it?

Jin: I haven’t had a chance to really think it over. But in a way, I think I’d like to show a completely different side to me when I grow up, while on the other hand, I also want to change slowly.

New MBC series “Goddess of Fire” has taken its first crown after running neck and neck with other two dramas on the Monday and Tuesday prime time lineup.

The brand-new period-set drama sat atop TV charts after drawing in an average viewership rating of 11.1 percent on July 1 and 2, AGB Nielsen Media Research (Nielsen Korea) showed on Wednesday.

The first two episodes of the 32-part epic kicked off by well-depicting the unavoidable romantic fate between inborn potter Jung (Moon Geun-young, child actress Jin Ji-hee) and Joseon Dynasty’s prince Gwanghae (Lee Sang-yoon, child actor Roh Young-hak).

Stepping up to the runner-up spot was KBS’s romantic series “Don’t Look Back” which posted an average 9.9 percent rating after spending five weeks at the bottom of the chart.

New SBS series “Golden Empire,” starring Ko Soo and Lee Yo-won, began its run this week in last place with an average score of 8.8 percent in the same time frame.

The battle among the three dramas will be fierce since “Goddess of Fire” and “Golden Empire” just premiered and “Don’t Look Back” has yet to unfold its full-scale revenge regarded as the climax of the drama.

Meanwhile, TNmS’s (Total National Multimedia Statistic) survey showed the programs in the same order yet with slightly lower numbers.

“Goddess of Fire” took the top spot with an average score of 10.3 percent while “Don’t Look Back” and “Golden Empire” followed behind with ratings of 9.6 and 8.1 percent, respectively.

Moon Geun Young will be returning to the period piece genre for the first time in five years. In MBC′s Goddess of Fire Jeongi, which will air its first episode on July 1, the actress will act as Joseon′s first ever female porcelain maker.

With her new role, she will again be depicting a female artist, one similar to the role she put on in 2008 through Painter of the Wind.

Goddess of Fire Jeongi is set in Joseon of the late 16th century, and talks of how Joseon′s first female porcelain maker, Yoo Jeong, paves her way toward success with her porcelain works.

In Painter of the Wind, Moon Geun Young appeared as Joseon′s genius painter Shin Yoon Bok.

Her appearance in the new period piece has especially been drawing interest as she won the SBS Drama Daesang with her last appearance.

Yoo Jeong was born with great senses, and she uses her innate abilities to make porcelain pieces. She later falls in love with the Crown Prince Gwanghae (Lee Sang Yoon), and works hard to become known as the first female porcelain expert.

Some showed concern over her new role, as it and her role in Painter of the Wind both worked in art and were born geniuses.

Moon Geun Young said on the issue, "Yoon Bok of Painter of the Wind and Jeongi of Goddess of Fire Jeongi share a lot of common factors. They were both born with talent, but they are hindered in their attempts to realize their dreams because of the situations they′re set in and their status in society."

She emphasized, however, that Yoon Bok and Jeongi are completely different.

"Yoon Bok tries to hide everything and works hard alone, but Jeongi is more candid and bold, and she steps forward as she learns. Jeongi is more positive and energetic," she said.

To add more realism to the drama, Moon Geun Young has even been learning how to make porcelain.

"I practiced at least two hours a day for three times a week over the course of two months," she said.

"I thought it wouldn′t be that hard, but when I tried I came to realize I had to imprint the knowledge on my body," she said. "My teacher also said, the more you work and the more time you pour into it, the better you become. I worked hard so that it wouldn′t look like I was merely imitating the work. Please look on with kind eyes even though I may look clumsy."

She added, "I was proud after Painter of the Wind because many more people started showing an interest in traditional paintings and related events started to take place. I found that people don′t pay much interest to traditional porcelain works. I hope they come to show more interest in them through this drama."

Actor Lee Sang Yoon is hotly tipped to star in upcoming MBC TV Mon-Tue drama ‘The Goddess of Fire, Jeongi’ and romance actress Moon Geun Young.

Lee Sang Yoon will play the role of Gwanghaegun who is a wise and gentle king that has an extraordinary love towards arts and culture, and an affection for female ceramist, Jeongi.

Moon Geun Young was said to be a lock-in for the female lead role in ‘The Goddess of Fire, Jeongi’ although it has now been reported that she is still actively considering the drama. This will mark her comeback piece after SBS TV weekend drama ‘Cheongdamdong Alice’.

Lee Sang Yoon has seen a popularity surge after his successful KBS 2TV drama ‘My Daughter Seoyoung, and has his schedules packed to the brim. After concluding his drama filming, Lee Sang Yoon returned to university and actively prepared for the final year of studies, while also finding time to begin filming for his film ‘Santa Barbara’. It wouldn’t be an understatement to say that Lee Sang Yoon is currently having a good time with his career and studies.

Lee Sang Yoon’s management agency revealed, “He is now actively looking at the opportunity of appearing in ‘The Goddess of Fire, Jeongi’. It’s a relief that he doesn’t have much lessons at university, and he just needs to attend 2 to 3 days a week. The film production has also coordinated the filming schedules with Lee Sang Yoon, so he should have no problems with the drama.”

So Yi Hyun, "Moon Geun Young is the Biggest Harvest I Gained from 'Cheongdam-dong Alice'"

Moon Geun Young was recently mentioned in an interview by So Yi Hyun:

"We still keep in touch with each other often, and while filming 'Cheongdam-dong Alice,' my biggest harvest was getting to know actress Moon Geun Young."

So Yi hyun continued, "Moon Geun Young is an actress who has a very clear view of acting. When we talk together, she seems like a teacher who has acted for a long time," and lavished with praise. 

Through this project, one of the biggest harvests Hye Jeong gained was meeting Moon Geun Young, who is a wonderful mentor. She was a kind unni to Hye Jong, who helped relieve her anxiety, and also a precious senior, who taught her detailed acting guidance and know-how.

Hye Jeong said, "Before the first filming, I first met Moon Geun Young senior at the place where we took the family photo. I thought she would have a quiet personality, and I recall being surprised at her lively personality. Upon seeing me hesitating, she even first put her arm around my shoulder, and during filmings also, 'If I were Se Jin, wouldn't I try this,' she personally demonstrated and showed me which made me touched. Not just the character, but like a real older sister, she played jokes and treated me warmly so that I was able to easily adjust," and complimented Moon Geun Young fervently.

Hye Jeong: "Because I'm an only child, I didn't know the feeling of younger siblings well. I asked my member unnis or younger siblings what it's like to have siblings a lot... Geun Young unni also, like a real unni, took very good care of me on the film set."
