According to a report in Nikkan Sports on 17th, the travel book, Beauty of Korea (tentative), penned by top Hallyu star Bae Yong Joon, has progressed into the writing stage. As of now, he has cut all communication with the rest of the world, and has focused his energy into embarking on this final leg.
The said article reported that Bae Yong Joon did not even inform his agency of his whereabouts. He is travelling only with one professional manager and is concentrating on the final writing stage. Recently, he has put up at a very secluded temple where there is no mobile phone signal.
According to a party related to BOF, the the agency that Bae Yong Joon belongs to, "The publication date in Japan has been brought forward to September this year, so (he) has to speed up on the writing of the manuscript.
This is an important moment whereby (he) has to organize and summarize the contents and materials that (he) has taken such painstaking effort to collect and collate for over a year, so he does not wish to be disturbed by external factors, and is currently pouring his heart into writing."
He went on to say, "Even the agency has no idea where exactly he is, which part he is at. (We) cannot get through his mobile phone too, he's as good as being non-contactable. When there're important matters, the accompanying manager will communicate via public telephones."
With the heart and the desire to promote and share the Korean culture with the rest of the world, Bae Yong Joon has started working on the Beauty of Korea since last year. The contents of the book touch on various forms of the Korean culture, including the hanbok,
kimchi,lacquer painting, and other traditional arts and culture, and also modern culture such as movies, concerts, etc.
Bae Yong Joon's 'hermit' lifestyle may continue till early august. Bae Yong Joon will be holding large-scale promotional events at the Tokyo Dome in Japan on 26th September to commemorate the Japanese screening of the Winter Sonata anime and the publication of Beauty of Korea.
(*bb: this is a mistake? the events are on 29th & 30th, no?)
If Beauty of Korea is to be released for sale before the promotional event, then the submission deadline of the final manuscript is early august for the project to enter into cover design and page layout stage.
According to the Nikkan Sports article, the BOF party said, "Bae Yong Joon may remain in this non-contactable state all the way till early August.
Soon, he will change to another place to continue with his writing. But as to the exact location, only Bae Yong Joon's dedicated manager will know."
And speaking of his manager and as his close friend, Mr. Yang. They said he's getting married this coming August 21. Oh my, my, my.... mababawasan na naman ang cute sa mundo.
In English, another cute and handsome guy will be deducted in Bachelors Society.
