[News] Won Bin voted as the "Entertainer Most Desired for a Steamy New Year's Kiss", followed by Gong Yu and Taecyeon

Won Bin has been voted as the number one entertainer most netizens would like to share a steamy kiss with on New Year's day.

On Cinetong.com, a question asking "New Year's Day, the entertainer you want to share a sweet kiss with?" has been running since December 28th. The results show Won Bin in first place with 58.3% of the votes.

Following are Gong Yu, who received a love call for filming just after returning from service, in 2nd place with 21.4% of the votes and Ok Taecyeon, the thief of noona's hearts, in 3rd with 14.3%.

Won Bin's secret to 1st place seems to be the recent CF where he shares a kiss with Shin Min-ah, that captured the attentions of many female netizens.

2009 was a year full of romantic kisses. The candy-kiss from the drama "Iris," the scarf-kiss from "High Kick through the Roof," and the deep kiss between Won Bin and Shin Min-ah in their CF all caught the viewers' attentions.

Spurred on by the kiss-fest, the movie "After Love" (in theatres January 21st, 2010) is gathering widespread interest with its refreshing love story and delicious kiss scene.

"After Love," also known as "Love Actually" internationally, contains 110 kiss scenes and is considered 2010's best romantic comedy.

[news]Gong Yoo’s upcoming army release

Another upcoming army release! Get ready to welcome back Coffee Prince actor Gong Yoo — while fellow actor Chun Jung-myung was released today, Gong Yoo will be discharged on December 8. Both enlisted at the height of their popularity last year, and the fan love is still going strong as they prepare for the their returns.

Gong Yoo enlisted on January 2, 2008, when he was still riding high from the high praise he received for his role in Coffee Prince. While he’d had lead roles before, that was the one that garnered him a solid reputation as a strong actor. Already he is being targeted with “love calls” (calls of interest for possible projects) for his comeback project from as diverse genres as romantic comedies and thrillers.

As we have seen time and time again, there’s always a high level of interest in the first projects taken on by returning actors. Some jump right back into the fray, while others like Won Bin and Go Soo have taken their time. We’ll have to see if Gong Yoo falls into the former category or the latter.
