The Heirs

"The Heirs" depicts the friendships, rivalries and love lives of young, rich heirs led by Kim Tan (Lee Min-Ho) and a girl named Cha Eun-Sang (Park Shin-Hye). Unlike the others, Cha Eun-Sang is considered ordinary and comes from a poor background.

18-year-old Cha Eun-Sang lives with her mother who is mute. Her mother works as a housekeeper and Eun-Sang also works part-time jobs to help out. One day, Eun-Sang's older sister (Yoon Jin-Seo) calls from the U.S. and informs them that she will marry. Eun-Sang's mother then asks Eun-Sang to send her older sister some money from her savings account. Eun-Sang isn't happy with her situation and decides to go to the U.S. herself to see if she can start a better life with her sister.

When Eun-Sang arrives in California she is in for a shock. Her older sister lives in a filthy home with a deadbeat boyfriend who seems violent. Her sister is also not getting married or going to school and works full-time as a waitress. When Eun-Sang finally tracks down her sister working at a beach front restaurant, she takes the money Eun-Sang brought for her wedding and leaves without even saying goodbye. Eun-Sang's dreams of starting a better life in America quickly vanishes and she crumbles to the ground in tears.

Meanwhile, Kim Tan is not your typical high school student, but a handsome and wealthy Korean heir to a large conglomeration. He is sitting out on the patio of the beach front restaurant, watching everything unfold between Eun-Sang and her sister. Kim Tan's American friend then sees a ziplock bag with a powdery substance fall out of Eun-Sang's suitcase and runs over to scoop it up. Kim Tan knows immediately that the ziplock bag doesn't contain drugs, but rather powder grain to make traditional Korean drinks. Soon, Eun-Sang runs off after Kim Tan's friend and Kim Tan goes to help Eun-Sang. When the dust is settled, Eun-Sang walks out of a police station and her passport is temporarily confiscated. With nowhere to go for Eun-Sang, Kim Tan offers to let her stay at his home. Although they seem to come from different worlds, they quickly develop a rapport for each other. But, when Kim Tan is at school, Eun-Sang meets a girl named Rachel (Kim Ji-Won). Rachel informs Eun-Sang that she is Kim Tan's fiance and she demands that Eun-Sang leaves his home immediately. Eventually, Eun-Sang returns to South Korea.

Kim Tan now feels nothing but emptiness after Eun-Sang's departure. He decides to go back to Korea even though his older stepbrother Won (Choi Jin-Hyuk) strongly opposes his return. When Kim Tan gets back to his luxurious mansion like home, he sees someone briefly that resembles Eun-Sang. Kim Tan goes to his mother Ki-Ae (Kim Sung-Ryoung) and asks about the unfamiliar, but familiar girl that he briefly saw. His mother tells him that the girl is their housekeeper's daughter and her name is Cha Eun-Sang. She's also staying in their home.

Lee Min-Ho

As a young child, Lee hoped to become a professional football (soccer) player, but an injury in the 5th grade of elementary school put an end to his dream. Lee, however, still keeps up with football and has stated that Cristiano Ronaldo is his favorite player.In his second year of high school, Lee turned to modeling and acting. After going through training, Lee started auditioning and landed small roles in several television dramas. His first role was in an EBS series, Secret Campus. Early in his career he used the stage name Lee Min because his agency thought his birth name was too ordinary. Finally he changed it back to his original name due to the Korean word imin (pronounced and written in Hangul in the same way) means "immigration" and thus internet search results for his stage name were poor.

In 2006, his acting career was put on hold for a year following a serious car accident in which he was severely injured. In 2008 he appeared in various roles on television (dramas Get Up and I Am Sam) and two movies, Public Enemy Returns and Our School E.T.. During the shooting of the latter he became good friends with Kim Soo-ro, who later praised him on a variety show: "I recognize a star when I see one. When I was doing 'Our School E.T', I knew that Lee Min-ho would become one of the top actors in the country".

His breakthrough came in 2009 with the lead role of Goo Jun-pyo in Boys Over Flowers(KBS2), the Korean adaptation of the popular Japanese television drama Hana Yori Dango, which was based on the popular Shōjo manga, Boys Over Flowers (花より男子 Hana Yori Dango). Audition for the role was so fierce Lee only got to know from a newspaper that he was cast.

In 2010 Lee followed up the success of Boys Over Flowers by starring in the MBC TV drama Personal Taste in which he played an ambitious perfectionist young architect who poses as a gay man to become roommates with a young woman leading to romantic complications. When asked about why he chose the role during an interview he responded "I think I would do a better job playing heavy and more defined roles when I am older. I think "Personal Taste" was perfect because it is bright, cheerful but you can also laugh and cry over it as well."

In 2011, he starred in the hit action drama City Hunter. The drama's popularity throughout Asia has also contributed to Lee's growing popularity in Asia, most notably in Japan, Philippines and China. On April 6, 2012, Lee announced on his Facebook page that he would appear in a new drama called Faith (Hangul: 신의, Rom.: Shinui), which aired from August to October 2012.

On March 29, 2013, Lee revealed that he will be returning to the small screen with a new drama titled The Inheritors (also known as The Heirs). This show began airing in Korea on SBS on October 9, 2013. His new project gained attention, because he worked with the writer of Secret Garden. He also released his first album and went on a 10-city fan meeting tour in Asia. In April 2013 his wax figure was unveiled at the Madame Tussauds in Shanghai.

Lee Seung-Gi

Lee Seung-Gi was born in Seoul, South Korea on January 13, 1987. He grew up in a family that consists of his parents and one younger sister. During his school years, Seung-Gi was an exemplary student, receiving good grades and becoming elected as President of his school's student council. He also formed an interest in music from an early age and started playing in a band in his teens.

During his freshman year in high school, Seung-Gi's band performed at a small theater owned by a popular 1980's singer Lee Sun-Hee (이선희). After Sun-Hee heard the band's music she asked Seung-Gi to pursue music professionally, but at the time, Seung-Gi did not know who Seon-hee was and declined her offer. When he got home and told his mother about Lee Sun-Hee, his mother explained how popular she was in the 1980's and Seung-Gi decided to work with her.

During Seung-Gi's senior year in high school, he released his first album “Nabangui Ggum” (“Dream of a Moth”) and its title track “Neoneun Nae Yeojanigga?” (You're My Girl?) - written by Psy – became popular, especially among female fans. The following year, in 2005, Seung-Gi expanded into acting by appearing as himself in the MBC sitcom “Nonstop 5.” In 2006, he appeared as Tae-ja Hwang in the KBS2 weekend drama “Famous Chil Princesses.” This further fueled his reputation as an actor. In 2007, Seung-Gi appeared in the variety show “1 bak 2 il” - which travels to different locations in Korea and conducts games. Going by his nickname “Heo Dang,” Seung-Gi was able to cut loose from his image as a cerebral person and act goofy, which increased his popularity even further. Seung-Gi still appears on the show regularly.

Seung-Gi's breakthrough as an actor came in 2009, with his leading man performance as Woo-hwan Seon in the SBS drama “Brilliant Legacy.” The drama series regularly received ratings near 40% and became the most watched drama series for the first half of 2009.

On June 18th, 2009, Lee Seung-Gi released his digital single “Will You Marry Me?” (결혼해 줄래) which has received strong response among his fans.

Isabelle Fuhrman

 As you may have already noticed, Isabelle has recently made several films, which are unfortunately not yet available. Here is a little reminder.

In terms of "After Earth", many of you were no doubt disappointed to see her only for few seconds, while her role should have been much more important. She's in fact been removed from the list of actors to be only figurante. Her name is not mentioned in the end credits.

For "The Healer", filmed in 2012, and renamed "The Between" we only have trailers, photos and summaries. We hope to see this film in theaters soon, already had a preview at Brussels Fantastic Film Festival. Thanks also  to the fan who went there and being the first to have given us some more information about this upcoming film. [Spoiler] This is a sad movie for the character of Isabelle, her father died, she's lost in the woods, her brother drowned. The film has a moral, even if the end is not as expected. [End of the spoiler]

In the case of "Dear Eleanor," we have just a few photos of the shooting but not least. This film will surely be expected. It is currently in "post-production". Remind Isabelle will share the screen with Liana Liberato and Jessica Alba (as far as we know). Her character is called Max.

Regarding "The Wilderness Of James" we have no more information than that to give. Knowing no pictures of Isabelle on the set has been created yet. It is, however, too, in "post-production" and the character of Isabelle is named Val.

Most delicate, the remake of "Suspiria" maybe can't be done. Indeed, for problems of legal rights, the film maybe won't be filmed. So bad news, especially for fans of the first hour, we think especially about those who particularly enjoyed "Orphan". We will not see Isabelle in a horror movie, at least not any time soon.

Finally, Isabelle intends to play in another film. This is indicated by its IMDB page. It will be one of the main roles of the film "Measure Of Man" directed by Terry Loane and film adaptation of the novel "One Fat Summer". Isabelle would play the role of Joanie . She will share once again the screen with one of the actors of Super 8, not Joel Courtney this time, but Riley Griffiths. For those who would be interested, you can read this short review about the book where we have more information on the character of Joanie, pay attention to the spoiler. More details will come probably in some time.
