A fan’s tribute to JHJ

“An actor must interpret life, and in order to do so must be willing to accept all the experiences life has to offer. In fact, he must seek out more of life than life puts at his feet. In the short span of his lifetime, an actor must learn all there is to know, experience all there is to experience, or approach that state as closely as possible. He must be a superhuman in his efforts to store away in the core of his subconsciousness everything that he might be called upon to use in the expression of his art.”

JHJ…tells the story of life with feeling
An actor with a beautiful look in his eyes
An actor who gives a good feeling
…JHJ…
.
A 32-year-old actor
Tries to tell the story of life through his eyes and feelings.
.
32-year-old JHJ…
Big eyes, handsome looks, a pretty-boy, idol-type actor who seems to look excessively handsome.
.
As a 40-something, I look at JHJ not so much as an actor portraying the story of life, but rather as a glamourous actor more suited to be in a drama for the young.
.
But ever since he returned from the military, the look in his eyes has changed.
.
Perhaps it is because he is already 31 years old, so the look in his eyes has become much warmer.
.
His appearance is like a beautiful statue — he looks like waterdrops bouncing off glass, radiating all over the world with his brilliant smile.
.
At the same time he seems to be emitting the aroma of man….
An aroma that looks good and also feels good.
.
Can a human being be so beautiful? – feels like this.
From his appearance you can feel the man’s aroma -
.
In the drama “49 Days” he plays the role of a man who cherishes pure love and offers selflessly which really shines.
.
I’d like to see him in a beautiful drama that is full of man’s aroma.
.
(I don’t want him to be in a too-ordinary role. I hope he can try his acting skills in multi-faceted roles, won’t follow transient money and fame, but can remain as a true actor who can last, because I want to keep watching his warm smile and eyes full of love.)
.
As I grow older, I watch his acting grow with age, and while I feel gratified, I hope he can be a better, more superior actor.
.
JHJ with the warm eyes …
.
To be able to exist at the same time as him …
It’s just so good, all because of him …
.

ED: First of all I have to apologise for the spacing. I don’t know what the problem is, but this post just won’t let me use double spacing (that’s why you see those dots!) I’ve tried a dozen times until I surrender. I’m frustrated because I feel I’m not doing justice to this piece which our translator says sounds poetic. The James Dean quote is by the author.
