Kim Bum follows single album with book release
by javabeans
Actor Kim Bum recently put out a single album in Japan — after showing off his vocal skills with the song he recorded on the additional Boys Before Flowers — and now he’s putting out a photoessay collection.
Kim Bum said, “After the broadcast ended for my drama Dream, I traveled to England. Over ten days from October 23, I toured London and the surrounding areas, and I’ve gathered the photographs I shot into an essay collection. You’ll be able to see it soon.” The photos aren’t solely vacation memories but aims to promote an environmental message.
He added, “I’ve wanted to release a book that I put my name on, so this is a dream come true. This was my first trip to England, and I really enjoyed myself. I feel great to be able to experience the culture of environmentalism myself and introduce it [to Korea].”
Meanwhile, Kim Bum has a movie still to be released (action-romance Bisang), and is enjoying a lot of popularity even if his last drama, Dream, flopped. Hopefully he’ll be more lucky with his next choice — given how busy he’s keeping these days, I’m going to guess we won’t have to wait too long for the next project…

The photos I've seen so far from his London trip are gorgeous. One of my favorites cities and one of my favorite boys...guess I'll have to add one more Christmas gift to the list of things I'm already planning to buy myself (Tamra, Pig-Rabbit...sigh. I'm gonna go broke).
Thanks JB!

Kim Bum has a bit of a Robert Pattinson stare going on in that picture, lol! But I like Kim Bum infinitely better than Robert Pattinson...Still, I think smiles suit him better - he's so cute when he smiles!!

I'm sorry but what's up with all these stars coming out with books. Seriously are they just trying to milk as much money as they can from the fans!

I tried in vain to stalk him when he was in London, but no cigar. *sigh* Guess I'll have to buy the photo book and reminisce about how 'close' he was. *sigh*
Yes, agree, he should smile more cos he has such a cute smile.

He's not cute here, he's handsome! But when he smiles, he's like a cute little kid. Either way, I don't care whether he smiles or not. He's still Kim Bum. But the boy needs to gain some weight.

Are Korean stars the only ones who do photo- and artbooks? I don't recall reading about any American stars doing things like that...
For me, that just makes my Korean babes more talented and creative.
