1. [+932, -55] If this is true, haeng shyo!
2. [+847, -24] There was a reason she stayed there longer than normal... But this is kind of cool how she's dating a Hollywood star.. ㅋㅋ They match each other well, I hope they last a long time ^^
3. [+692, -31] They match each other so wellㅋㅋ
4. [+75, -0] I knew it ㅋㅋㅋㅋ They stayed in Seoul for so long and on voting day, he followed her to the voting center... People even spotted them skating together in front of the city hall ㅋㅋㅋ

K-press digs up december pap shots of Jim Sturgess and Bae Doo Na at the grove



This week, Metro’s film blogger Ross McD published a 4-part account of a round table press junket for Cloud Atlas, which I believe took place last October in Los Angeles. The actors were paired up and each pair rotated between small groups of journalists, who fired off their questions. I read all 4 chapters, but naturally, I was most interested in Jim’s and Doo Na’s round table interview.
Ross not only transcribed the interview but also his observations that point to the bond and affection (and maybe even attraction ) between Jim and Doo Na. When a Japanese reporter asked Doo Na which between love and work has her priority, and Doo Na’s response failed to satisfy her, Jim swooped in to the rescue:
Jim Sturgess, one of whom’s main characters in the film, is fervently protective of the timid Doona, can watch no longer and finally jumps to rescue her.
“I think she means you immerse yourself in your work as you would in love. It’s all or nothing I guess” Awww. He smiles at Doona, she smiles appreciatively back. The room sighs relief. The two make a really cute couple on screen …
At one point, Jim corrected the Japanese reporter, who was skewing Doo Na’s answer out of context. Lainey had said that Jim was naturally inclined to help Doo Na during her interview with them, but I wouldn’t have expected him to be this protective

Date: 2013-02-27 05:39 pm (UTC)I thought they did well in Cloud Atlas. I liked their storyline the most, along with the one about the old man in the nursing home and whenever Tom Hanks appeared (because he's Tom Hanks lol).
