Re: Eugene Kim


• Eugene's musical debut postponed due to rib hairline fracture
Image
Due to a hairline fracture on the ribs, Eugene's musical appearance on A Dancer's Innocence will be postponed.
Eugene, who has been double-casted in the musical, A Dancer's Innocence (opening this Thursday, the 29th), discovered too late that she had a rib hairline fracture from too much strenuous dance practice.

Last Friday (23rd), after rehearsing the dance competition scene in the musical, Eugene felt a sharp pain in her ribs, so she went to the hospital and had a CT scan done. After confirming a rib hairline fracture, the doctor said, "it's not serious enough to be concerned about, but I'm surprised she could bear it and practice in that state for such a long time," and told Eugene to rest for at least a week.

But because this was her musical debut and there was only one week before the opening, Eugene persisted that she had to keep practicing. Upon hearing this news, the director and playwright persuaded her to postpone her first appearance by at least a week.

In the end, the performance on the 31st, which was originally going to be Eugene's debut, will go to Yang So Min, who was double-casted with Eugene.

Eugene plans to begin performing in the April 4th or 7th performances.
Eugene is currently avoiding strenuous dance practice and is focusing on singing and acting.
The director said that "Eugene was so determined and burdened to be at her best for the audience, that she stayed and practiced her dancing until 2,3 AM even after her costars finished practicing", and was amazed at the amount of practice she put in.

There is a lot of excitement over A Dancer's Innocence since it will be all-around entertainer Eugene's musical debut. It will be performed from the 29th of this month to July 1st (3 months) at Seoul Samsung Dong Baek Ahm Art Hall.

Re: Eugene Kim


Let's wish our girl a speedy recovery. It doesn't surprise that she played right through the pain. I'm sure that Miss Yang is also quite good, but I'd be really disappointed to miss Eugene if I had tickets for the show.

I guess Eugene's used to working through the pain. I remember she broke her arm while snowboarding during the filming of Really, Really Like You.
You can see the cast/brace on her left arm under her blouse in the first photo.

She's a trooper!

Re: Eugene Kim


The talents, attitudes, and work ethic of this young lady are truly inspirational. You see her in interviews and read about the dedication that she has to her many crafts and feel small by comparison. The sixteen hour days seems to have little effect on her cheery demeanor which stands as a stark contrast to many of the celebrities that steal all of the headlines here in the West.

I viewed two short films shot of her on crunchyroll that help to illustrate some of this. One, shot in Guam by a fan, shows her signing an autograph and speaking sweetly to a young girl while another fan captures her on film with a hand held camera. Eugene is later followed at close range by the fan with the camera as she walks down the street, playfully exchanging in light banter at she moves along her way with the camera person gently stalking and filming her as they move in the same direction. She continues to be pleasant while moving to her destination, providing a few cheery remarks along the way as the taping continues.

In a clip that reveals her athletic side, Eugene is filmed performing a physical test that we in the States use to test the fitness levels of students in middle and high schools. As the fitness level of children has declined in recent years, we in the field of physical education have had to alter many of our fitness tests in order to produce passing results from an increasingly over-fed, under-worked youth. One of the modified tests now administered (in place of pull-ups) is a thing called the "flexed-arm hang." Here, the kids either stand on a chair or pull themselves into a flexed position with their chin over the bar and hold themselves for as long as they can without having their chins drop beneathe the bar. A passing time is 20 seconds for boys and 12 seconds for girls with about 30-50% of the kids being able to meet the standard and less as the grade levels and body weights increase. In this shot, we see Eugene gripping the bar for well past the time limit for males, happily singing a song as she easily does a chore that many able-bodied Marines would find very difficult, if not impossible to accomplish.

Looking at things from the perspectives as not only a fan, but an educator, I wish that they could bottle some of what Eugene has and sell it in stores. The miracle salve for what ails ya and a new subject for scientific study, "Eugenics"! emoticon

Dancing Princess Update

Image

Eugene, Proceeds with Musical Even with Hairline Fracture
Eugene, who has transformed into a Musical actress, climbs on stage by overcoming her rib injury. It is the stage for the musical 'Innocent Steps.'
Recently, Eugene fractured a rib bone during rehearsal.
Because the musical requires the performers to act out the colorful and sensual art of dance sport all over the stage, the practice had to be very intense.
Eugene hid her chest pain and kept practicing, but fellow performers and staff noticed the subtle change in her dancing and advised her to get tested at the hospital.
The MRI photos showed hairline fractures on her rib bone(s), and although Eugene stubbornly insisted that she could go on, she had to give up her first performance. But with rapid recovery and an iron will, her dream of debuting in a musical comes true on the 7th at Seoul Sam Sung Dong Baek Ahm Art Hall in 'Innocent Steps.
The producing company Culture Cap(?) Media (representative: Choi Soon Shik) also gained strength from Eugene's recovery. With Eugene as the star of the show and a response that doesn't come short of the hype, the company is guaranteed massive support.
An insider from the producing company revealed, "There are many people who have postponed buying tickets to guarantee that they will see Eugene perform (this is a vague quote if i directly translate it but it means that people knew Eugene wouldn't be performing in the first show because of her injury so they waited until she recovered to buy tickets because they wanted to see HER perform, not the other woman who is double casted with Eugene)
Eugene's role in 'Innocent Steps' is the character of Chae Rin. She is the beautiful and innocent girl that Moon Geun Young portrayed in the movie version.
Chae Rin sets out to Seoul to pursue her older sister's (who leaves to pursue love) dream of success. Unlike her sister, who had continuously won at a dance competition, Chae Rin has never attempted any dance before in her life. She pays some men who turn out to be gang members to take her to Seoul and get threatened by them. This is when Young Jae enters the story. He had been failing in the dance sport world because of other competitors' conspiracies. Sensing compassion in the young Chae Rin, he teaches her dance day and night and prepares to enter a competition with her as his partner.
'Innocent Steps,' a musical that was born after two years of preparation, opened on the 29th of last month. It double-casts Eugene; the all-around entertainer who MCs, acts in dramas, and now even has a movie coming out, and Yang So Min; a master musical actress.

An interview with Eugene, about her performance in the musical "Innocent Steps."

Eugene, Shining Dance Talent In Her First Musical
Former S.E.S. member Eugene (26) successfully finished her official declaration as a musical actress.
Eugene plays Chae Rin from the movie of the same name, 'Innocent Steps.'
Chae Rin became a popular character due to Moon Geun Young's portrayal of her with a cute country dialect and dance talent.
**** same thing about how musical was supposed to start on 3/31 bla bla rib injury etc... performance postponed to the 7th*** (sorry im just lazy, plus I've translated this many times before)
The recovery was slower than expected. But with the acting skills she had built over the years with her dramas, and her exceptional dancing and singing talent that had been accepted since her SES days, Eugene was able to perform without any problems.
S.E.S. members Bada and Shoo, as well as Eugene's other friends So Yoo Jin and Lee Min Ki came to the performance and cheered her on. Bada and Shoo, who had prior experience in musicals, especially cheered vigorously.
Shoo said she was "currently learning the Flamingo, but I fell in love with dance sport after watching Eugene's performance." She envied her friend, saying, "I want to play a role like Eugene's, so I could dance my heart out on the stage like her."
Bada also expressed her hope by saying, "the performance was so fun and interesting from beginning to end that I didn't even realize the time going by. This is the perfect example of a prediction of success" (sorry theres no good expression for the original, so it doesn't really make sense)
*** last part of article says Eugene and the other actors are casted in the show and where it's going to be performed***

Eugene Kim — Unstoppable Marriage photo shoot

April 12th, 2pm at a studio in Sam Sung Dong, the poster photo shoot for the movie 'Unstoppable Marriage' began.
The movie is a hot topic these days because of the meeting of Eugene; who is debuting with 'Unstoppable Marriage' as her first movie, and Ha Suk Jin; who is gaining popularity due to his acting in the KBS drama 'Hello, Miss.'
Eugene took the role of the pure and innocent Eun Ho.
Eun Ho meets unruly cosmetic surgeon Ki Baek (Ha Suk Jin) while paragliding, and the two fall in love.
Eugene's beauty was caught on film during the photo shoot.

Kim Soo Mi, "Eugene's swimsuit body, a wild S-line" Strange Praise
Actress/entertainer Kim Soo Mi praised Eugene's body as "a wild S-line" (S-line is a Korean pop culture term if you didn't know. It basically means you have a curvy, sexy body. Like an S get it? haha)
Kim Soo Mi was interviewed on the afternoon of the 12th (at the poster photoshoot) about the movie's swimming pool scene and complimented Eugene's body.
She said "Eugene's body is as hard as a rock. Her waist is thin and feminine, yet it has a wild, feral feel to it," and "She was tanned from traveling recently, which gave her a healthy and beautiful look."
Eugene also commented that "Kim Soo Mi's body is beyond imagination for her age," saying "she wore a sexy low-neck swimsuit. I was surprised. She must take care of her body very well"
Movie 'Unpreventable Marriage' is a romantic comedy about two lovers and their totally opposite families trying to prevent their marriage. It will open May 10th, competing with Hollywood blockbusters 'Spiderman 3' and 'Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End'

Oh the third article was the same as the second so i wont translate it. Eugene looks sooooo pretty in the poster photos. Even in the shots where they're not actually doing the photoshoot and she's just looking somewhere else.
