Jun Kim is an actor based in Korea who has starred in feature films and tv series with representation and credentials both in Korea and the US. Having grown up in Hong Kong during his youth, he speaks four different languages - Cantonese, Mandarin, Korean, and English. His dream as an actor is to work on international projects that transcend culture barriers.
a friend of mine posed this question to me, "What defines self worth?" at first i was like, this question is pretty cliche but i obliged. upon telling her what was on my mind, i realized certain things that im not usually conscious of - things i should remind myself of.
as for the question what define's a person's worth, i will say one thing. it requires faith. cause even when we know money, fame, honor, dont define us (who we really are), we're so tempted to let it define us. because the world we live in places so much value in those things. i know that for me, i feel better about myself when i am financially secure, and feel less so when i am not. i think in some ways, actually in many ways, to have faith is to be a rebel to the world. to gain is to lose, and to lose is to gain. i think ulitmately to be a man or woman of self-worth, its necessary to be a rebel, like a salmon swimming upstream. and i am hoping that when i am tired and spent, i can then truly rest in peace in stiller waters, where no regrets exist.
this young man is a prodigy in my mind. his lyrics, his spirit, and his talent defies convention. some of you may know him already from american idol. he never made it to the top 24, whatever the hell that means. he's better than that.
thats the title of the new movie. the shoot will be over in a week or so and then its a quick trip to the editing room and bam! its out. i am enthusiastic, but not overly zealous about how it will do. i am more curious to see how people will react to the comedic aspect of my character.
i personally don't find my character that funny, but the people in the project do. for example with the actors, their main objective in their scenes with me is not to laugh. "what the hell is so funny!" i am thinking, and then i start laughing because everyone else is laughing or trying to hold it in.
here are some things that actors do when they try to hold it in:
- quivering lips with a frowny chin a contradictory smirk
- they get busy with props: fidget with their tie, pull out a cigarette, clean their glasses etc
- they look the other way, and clearly have no intention of looking at you or listening to anything you have to say.
- or they try act more emotional - like more angry. they shake their head in disapproval, cover their mouth like they are disgusted, and turn their back on you. and what i see are their shoulders shaking uncontrollably which I know is not from rage.
so basically what i am saying is, i am a funny mofo, so go get a pirated movie and laugh ur ass off.
