Lee Jun-ki and Joo Ji-hoon in army musical
by girlfriday
Lee Jun-ki and Joo Ji-hoon, who entered military service in May and February, respectively, are starring in a musical production as part of the army’s entertainment unit.
The musical, entitled Life’s Voyage, honors the 60-year anniversary of the Korean War, and also stars Kim Da-hyun, Yoon Gong-joo, Son Hyun-jung, and Moon Jong-won.
The play has been in production since June, and Lee Jun-ki, as the youngest member of the team, reportedly sang the loudest and worked the hardest at rehearsals.
Joo Ji-hoon said, “It would be nice to share this show with a lot of people. A lot of soldiers are putting their sweat and hard work into this production, so I think you can keep your expectations up.”
Lee Jun-ki stated, “I’m happy to be able to participate in a meaningful piece. The show will give us the chance to share a new perspective on 6/25 with many people, and I hope that it will leave a lasting impression of gratitude and comfort to the veterans of that war.”
Life’s Voyage will run August 21-29 at the National Theater.

Yo, Army! Way to make two of the prettiest pretty boys in K-entertainment look fugly and kinda transsexual.
If I have Junki and JJH's face handy, THAT would not be what I plaster on posters. Just sayin'.

i don't think their appearances matter much. Their both talented actors, whether they're pretty or not.

They are both talented actors, yes, but that's one bad poster.

That's exciting. It'll be good for Joo Ji-hoo to be in something post scandal. I have been fond of Lee Jun-ki since he played earring boy in My Girl. Good for them!!!

LOL. That was my first reaction. My 2nd one went like this:
"Hmm, LJK and JJH in musical....interesting..."
O_O
JJH?! Sweet mother of Pearl!
(I hope this helps him get past this not-so-bright phase of his life)

Any project of JiHun, whether drama, movie or a play is worth watching. He has proven to be one fine actor from a newbie in Goong where to me he was very good to other movies that he did. He did well in the Don Juan musical play and no doubt he will excel in Voyage of Life musical. He strives to improve his craft - acting, singing and I have not doubt good reviews will be written about him in this play. We should wish him and the rest of the cast good luck!

Though the production seems to be using the same make-up artist as Road#1, ie. too much face paint and guyliner, saying those two men are ugly seems quite the stretch...
I hope these army events will help JJH transition back into his entertainment career when his service is over.

Jesus Christ, is this an effort to make them look more rugged and tan as they should in the army? It's hard to buy, but hopefully the musical will turn out good.

I guess we can say that at least with the tan Lee jun-ki looks less like a girl. Just a little bit less. X) I still think he's hot, you know, with hair.

Lol. I must be the only one who thinks they look fine. So does this mean the musical is open to the public? This is one unusual way of serving national service

A) They look like drag queens.
B) I must be the most excited fangirl in the world. They have always been my two favorite K-drama actors. Though Gong Yoo and Kim Nam-Gil tie for a close third.

1. JJH's ear looks like it was accquired at some point well past birth ...
2. The men: cool; defiant. The women: just peed their pants.

(clap-clap) Oh lord! O__o
Oh gooodness...........Is that Lee Jun Ki?? Impressive! I thought he seem really different because he might have lost his weight --- that's why I did noticed that Lee Jun Ki's cheek but it's not same as that before he was in past.
Well, I really like Lee Jun Ki is just all himself, like, so normally, but he suddenly change into manly now, how impressive. Especially for Joo Ji hoo --- ah, he's kinda different but he seems same to me.
Oo, I am surprised about people's comments about this army musical poster looks so worse, horrible, like, whatever........What am I think? I am neutral, heh! (chuckles) =)

Alrighty ....... wow, well, starters, love these guys, it is a VERY interesting way of serving (but then, really, what were they going to do with Lee Jun Ki? make him a tkd instructor?), not at all surprised that the army is capitalizing on these guys fame and skills.
As with any role, the haircuts and clothes make the role more complete, so nothing bad to say about their new 'look' which they've been sporting for months (though, as noted, with less guyliner).
I hope this is the road to straightening out the JJH mess, best wishes to both and so sorry I won't be able to watch!!

Oh geez.........Is that really.....LEE JUN KI??!! (drops my jaw) o___O
Oh amen! My apologize, I think Lee Jun Ki seems very....."impressive" different of his image like that --- Sooooo manly! Ooo!
Finally I see Joo Ji Hoon from this poster --- I hadn't seen him since he got arrested for drug, of course.
Ah, it's very nice of them in, like, a army musical theatre & do their best! (winks)

If I had an army of kpop stars sitting about in one place, I'd do the same thing. Smart move army, not so smart with the photoshop/make-up/poster or anything else that's supposed to be creative.
Oh well, I suppose their better at other things. (I hope)
And can I just say where is the rest of Joo Ji Hoon's face? I just hope its the rough photoshopper, cause it would be pretty scary if he would be thinner then he already was.

This musical offers us a great chance to see two talented actors to sing and act together. I love JJH and Lee Jun Ki is also my favourite Korean actor. I support them and wish them every success in their forthcoming shows. Really hope that this musical will be made into a DVD for fans who, for some reasons, cannot be able to watch it on stage.
Joo Ji Hoon, fighting!
