20 years ago, a "Blue Life and Death Love" turned out.
In the play, a pair of "brothers and sisters" who are green plum bamboo horses but are not related by blood, fall in love after growing up and reuniting, but they immediately face the test of life and death.
Unforgettable love not only earned enough tears from the audience, but also made this drama a hit, which quickly swept across Asia after broadcasting.
According to statistics, the highest rating of "Blue Life and Death Love" reached 54.4% that year, and it was the 2000 Korean TV drama ratings champion.
In addition, the drama was not only broadcast on 21 TV channels in Chinese mainland, but also in Taiwan, which also set a record for the highest rating of Korean dramas on the eight major TV stations in 2000.
Lingering love, eye-catching handsome men and women, and beautiful ost, it is difficult not to let the audience move.
As Korean dramas open up the Asian market, the four lead actors in the drama also immediately burst into flames, opening a new acting journey in their lives.
20 years have passed, and now Korean dramas no longer follow the bitter love route of the past, and the four leading actors have different lives.
What happened to them in reality, who are crazy about love in the play?
Song Huiqiao
Talking about the goddess of frozen age in South Korea, many people will think of Song Huiqiao for the first time.
Qiao Mei, born in 1981, is 39 years old this year, but she has always maintained the appearance and atmosphere of her 20s.
Qiao Mei is lucky, at the age of 19, she starred in "Blue Life and Death Love", and unlike many actors who debuted at the peak, Qiao Mei was especially favored by the god of fate.
Who would have thought that the explosion of "Blue Life and Death Love" was just the beginning. Four years later, a "Full House of Romance" once again made her popular in Asia.
In "Full House of Romance", Qiao Mei changed the image of bitter love in the past and interpreted a delicate and cute housewife to the fullest.
The completely different but deeply rooted role proves the strength of Qiao Mei and makes her a well-deserved top K-pop star.
In addition to her career, Qiao Mei's love life is also very concerned.
Born into a single-parent family, she has a strong sense of self-protection, and only when filming will she devote herself to it, remove her armor, and release the truest emotions.
Therefore, it is always easy for her to fake scenes with filming partners.
From Li Bingxian, Xuan Bin to Song Zhongji, the other half of Qiao Mei's three love histories is not the male protagonist in her play.
Among several relationships, the most dramatic is undoubtedly the love journey of the double Song CP.
The hit of "Descendants of the Sun" has made the double Song CP deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and in the following two years, the whole process of the two from engagement to divorce has made many fans experience a rollercoaster from excitement to heartbreak.
The impact of the divorce on Qiao Mei is not small, and in the face of the disturbing voices, she chose to "escape".
As she traveled abroad, she began to travel around, see exhibitions, study, and meet with friends, trying to reorganize her life.
At present, Qiao Mei has no plans to shoot new dramas, but will occasionally shoot some magazines and commercials.
Appearing in front of the media camera again, she changed her former neighbor style and became mature and sexy.
The smart dress of the flying eyeliner shows the public that she is not afraid of the outside world and only respects herself.
There are many opinions about the reasons for the divorce of the double Song Dynasty, but it is no longer important.
Through marriage, it is more important to find yourself.
Take life into your own hands, love and hate, do not stay in the past, live the present and the future.
And slowly healed, each beautiful. Free and wanton, casual and natural, is the best Joe sister now.
Song Chengxian
As the male protagonist of "Blue Life and Death Love", Song Chengxian has attracted much attention for the role of Junxi in the affectionate model.
Joon-hee in the play, facing Eun-hee, wants to love but does not dare to love. And when he finally bravely faces this relationship, Eun Hee is leaving.
The hesitant and cowardly character of the male protagonist, after being interpreted by Song Chengxian, is really hateful.
He was not sunny, but there was a gentleness of humility emanating from him. He was handsome, always with affectionate eyes and a deep melancholy in his eyes.
Such an image is impressive, making Oba a hot male star in the Korean entertainment industry.
In 2004, Song Chengxian took advantage of the victory to pursue, through the role of a high school student in "That Boy Is Really Handsome", he created a rebellious and unruly teenager, which made many viewers shine.
Through different attempts, Oba took advantage of the victory and made a series of works, which opened up its popularity in the Chinese mainland market.
An important work of Song Chengxian's entry into the Chinese film market is "The Third Kind of Love" with Liu Yifei, which also opened up an exotic love affair for the two.
Unfortunately, the good times did not last long, and the two announced in 2018 that they had broken up due to busy schedules due to work reasons.
At present, Song Chengxian is still unmarried, and devotes his main energy to the shooting of works and the management of the company.
In 2009, Song Chengxian opened his own acting company and invested in a series of properties.
According to South Korean media reports, he is one of the top hidden richest people after the president of SM Company and has been voted the "best financial star" by real estate experts.
Perhaps because corporate management has taken up some of his energy, Oba's work in recent years has been slightly bland. Years have passed, and there is no surpassing the masterpiece of "Blue Life and Death Love".
Of course, this may not be the most important thing for him.
Rather than acting, he prefers to experiment in different fields.
Keep changeable, never stop, no shortage of accumulation and self-breakthrough.
Whether it's acting, investing, or love, he's on his way.
Yuanbin
Unlike Song Seung-hyun, Yuan Bin has nearly disappeared from the Korean entertainment industry since 2010.
Once that caught up with Song Chengxian, directly approached Kimura Takuya, charmed the face of thousands of girls in Asia, and faded out of the acting career, which made many fans feel sorry.
In "Blue Life and Death Love", the male second Han Tae-seok played by Yuan Bin is a rebellious but affectionate rich man. Domineering in his career, he treats feelings with extreme tenderness and delicacy, and pays for love.
The image of the full score of the second male has won the hearts of thousands of young girls, and Yuan Bin has since entered the public eye, and won the Best Newcomer Actor Award at the 37th Korea Baeksang Arts Awards with the drama.
When the TV drama career dividend was in the head, Yuan Bin chose another direction and began to specialize in movies.
Compared with his achievements in the TV series, putting his acting skills on the big screen to be tested is his greater ambition.
Obviously, this choice is correct.
In 2004, Won Bin starred in "Taiji Flag Flying", which became the annual Korean box office champion. In the same year, the work "My Brother" also created a good performance, winning the Korean box office for two consecutive weeks.
Unfortunately, after making these two films, Yuan Bin enlisted in the army and faded from the audience's vision for four years.
But his influence was so great that when many feared that a four-year retirement would take him off the market, he once again proved himself with box office and awards.
The experience of military service allowed him to better interpret the role, from "Mother" to "Lonely Agent", after returning, he refreshed his film achievements.
Soon, the glory of the career gradually slowed down because of the arrival of love.
In 2011, YuanBin met his future wife, Li Naiying. The two actors, who are also actors, often discuss the work together, so they slowly come together.
In 2015, the two married and gave birth to a son.
After marriage, Yuan Bin gradually faded out of the film and television circle, and almost no works have appeared in recent years.
Many netizens said that Yuanbin's premature retirement is an eternal embarrassment in his heart.
Interestingly, not long ago, the photos of Yuan Bin taking advertisements flowed out. Ten years have passed, and the photo is still the handsome appearance of that year, and he has not been reduced by half a point.
I believe that when Yuan Bin returns from the reorganization of the mountains and rivers, he can still surprise the audience again with superb acting skills.
Han Caiying
As the actor of the bad sister who loves vanity in "Blue Life and Death Love", due to the unpleasant role, Han Caiying's light was not seen by everyone at first.
Ernie once confessed: Maybe my eyes are very foxy, more suitable for that evil horn.
However, this does not prevent the audience from being amazed by her beauty.
Small and exquisite facial features, sexy and hot figure, Han Caiying can always bring people a confident and powerful aura every time he appears.
The superior appearance conditions won Ernie a lot of drama, and in 2005, a "Haojie Chunxiang" made her go to the peak of her career.
In this drama, she played a strong and cute female high school student, partnered with the fire god Jae-hee at the time, and performed a light-hearted and pleasant romantic comedy, which is the youth memory of many post-90s.
This pleasing role won a large audience for Han Caiying, and more and more people found that this Ernie could not only play a sexy and mean character, but also play a kind and innocent role.
At the time of the boom of the Korean Wave sweeping the mainland, Ernie also decided to try to enter the mainland, and successively cooperated with mainland directors in important works such as "Beijing My Love", "Huge Deal" and "Uninvited Guest".
In 2007, 27-year-old Han Caiying married entrepreneur Choi Dong-joon, and since then he has made some works and gave birth to a son in 2013.
After marriage, Ernie's focus shifted to family, occasionally starring in dramas, but none of them were protagonists.
In the past two years, she has almost completely retreated behind the scenes, and occasionally shares some beauty and skin care experiences on social platforms, which is still the kind and beautiful appearance of that year.
Compared with twenty years ago, the Korean drama market is still hot today.
With the improvement of the audience's aesthetic level, Korean dramas have long been out of the old clichés of the early years, and more and more show the unique characters in social life.
But no matter how the times develop, the classics of the past will never fade in our hearts.
When the familiar music sounds, we will be taken back to that unforgettable story again.
May the hope of beautiful love always exist, perhaps in the story, the protagonists' love ending is not perfect, but in life, the actors have harvested their own wonderful, it is enough.
. end .
