Jang Dong-gun on Talk Asia
October 10, 2007
Jang Dong-gun is the ultimate poster boy for Korean pop culture. Gracing more billboards than anyone else in his native South Korea, Jang creates widespread hysteria when he ventures out into public. The first Korean actor to feature on the cover of TIME magazine, Jang has smashed nearly all national box-office records with his leading roles in the films "Taeguki" and "Friends." Jang takes Talk Asia's Anjali Rao on a private tour of Seoul as he discusses his Hollywood debut and his concerns about the South Korean film industry.
