Siwon on “Dragon Blade” Star Tour in Singapore

[sakuragirl24.livejournal.com]

Choi Siwon has been busy promoting his latest Chinese movie “Dragon Blade” along with co-stars Jackie Chan, John Cusack, Adrien Brody, Lin Peng and Mika Wang. The cast visited Shanghai, Beijing, Singapore, Malaysia, Taiwan and Thailand in the span of one week, flying in Jackie Chan’s personal jet.



Shedding his clean cut idol image and sporting a beard for the film, Siwon transforms himself into Yin Po, a military guard on the western frontier. Running around in heavy armor costume, the tough time helped Siwon tone his physique as he filmed under the relentless desert sun.



At a media conference in Singapore last week, Siwon urged others to catch the film when it is released by professing his love “I love Singapore.” Like the rest of the cast, he enjoyed working with Jackie Chan, and “because he protects and takes care of everyone, we affectionately call him Big Brother.” Siwon was also gifted a rare T-shirt by the film’s director Daniel Lee for the former’s extra efforts in practicing his Mandarin lines until he nailed the pronunciation.






Siwon was sighted translating for John Cusack throughout the media conference. The conference was hosted in a mix of English and Mandarin.

Siwon mischievously painted a silver tooth while inking his signature on the film’s poster.

The film will be simultaneously released across Asia on February 19 during the Lunar New Year festive period and is expected to open in Korea on March 12.

Cubs? Boooooooooooooooooo

I'm so sad Lorie is not promoting with them.

[sakuragirl24.livejournal.com]

omg i was so stunned to hear Lorie was in that movie too lmao! it wouldn't make much sense to have her promote in Asia where nobody knows her, maybe she'll promote in Europe or at least in France? it would be really funny

[hongaerin.livejournal.com]

Yeah I know it would not make sense but it would have been so fun to see my childhood idol promote with Siwon and Jackie Chan ahahaha
Alizée got quite popular in Japan and China, so maybe Lorie could do it too lol ?

siwon becoming buddies with john cusack is so funny and random

also siwon looking nicer with his hair down nowadays

I'm still confused as to why out of all actors from America they could have used, they chose John Cusack. Still...like my mind is blown ya'll. Maybe its because I'm just not used to seeing him in this type of role and it could have been worst....they could have gotten Nicolas four quarter hairline Cage to be in this.

if Cage was on it I would be waiting for him to go "NO! NOT THE BEES! NOT THE BEES!"
or say something incredibly embarrassing with that smug face

so Siwon and John Cusack are BFF's now? I approve and I love siwon's forever love for Jackie Chan. And I know Jackie Chan isn't Korean, but I think we should have a tag for him.
and I had no idea Cusak was that tall

[sakuragirl24.livejournal.com]

he goes around calling John Cusack and Adrien Brody his brothers now lol and he claimed himself as the Korean Adrien Brody too, i guess they're good buddies. Jackie loves Siwon too, he said he wanted to cast him as his son in a movie next haha their interactions are pretty cute

Ugh. Maybe I'll check this out. I didn't now Adrien Brody was in this, but then again I never really paid attention. He's one of my favorite actors :3

The movie looks like it will be pretty exhausting to watch like most epic fighting movies are for me but I might check this one out since I like the cast. The Singlish video was great, the looks of trying desperately to make sense of what was going on and of confusion were so funny!!
