Actor Jang Hyuk spent an hour connecting with some 1,300 fans in Japan at the Theater Brava in Osaka, Japan, on July 15th.

In the limited time, Jang spoke of his previous works and took part in playing a game, giving away a personal item to the winning fan. And it wouldn’t have been complete without a song, so the 35-year-old actor serenaded his fans for the final act.

The fans were also eager to give something back to the star and staged a singing event themselves, singing a song for Jang in Korean. The actor was moved and thanked his fans for taking the time to come and see him.

“I know that an hour is a very short time, but I really enjoyed every minute of it, spending it with you. I hope to see you all again in the near future,” Jang said.

Currently, the Korean actor is in the middle of filming the movie “Flu,” which is being directed by Kim Seong-soo.

Actor Jang Hyuk will be making his return to the big screen in director Kim Sung Soo’s new movie ‘Cold.’

According to Sidus HQ on February 21st, Jang Hyuk will play the male lead for the movie set to crank in late March or early April. The story is centered around a deadly cold that’s rapidly spreading, leaving it up to the two main characters to find out the source of the sickness. The movie will also mark director Kim’s return to the big screen in nine years.

‘Cold,’ Jang's comeback film to the silver screen since his movie "The Client" in September 2011, is his second time working with director Kim since their movie "Please Teach Me English" in 2003.

Jang Hyuk has starred in several drama series, and rose to stardom throughout Asia as male lead in KBS "The Slave Hunters" in 2010 and SBS historical series "Deep Rooted Tree."


Actor Hyun Bin has reached new heights in popularity following his role in SBS drama “Secret Garden.” Playing the role of a second generation chaebol (or heir to a giant conglomerate), Hyun Bin perfectly portrayed the cynical yet lovely Kim Joo Won character, quieting many critics who had reservations about his acting skills. But not many people realize that that role initially was supposed to go to actor Jang Hyuk. The production crew of “Secret Garden” planned on casting Jang Hyuk for Joo Won’s character until his management agency declined the offer, and many fans have been wondering if there were any hard feelings about missing out on a grand opportunity for Jang Hyuk.

“’Secret Garden’ was such a great show and I’m glad that Hyun Bin’s become a better quality actor through this drama. But instead of thinking about ‘missed opportunities,’ I’m more focused on fully playing my current character in ‘Midas,’” Jang Hyuk said today at the press conference of SBS’s new drama “Midas,” regarding his missed chance in “Secret Garden.”

This is pretty interesting because Jang Hyuk was also originally cast for Kam Woo Sung’s role in the movie “The King and the Clown.” At the time he had to serve the military and had no choice but to decline the offer, which would have given him the leading role for a movie that brought in more than 10 million people. It seems like any role that Jang Hyuk declines go on to become a mega hit, but at least there aren’t too many hard feelings—at least on his end!
