A scene from Jun Ji-hyun’s Hollywood bound flick “Blood the Last Vampire.”
Not much info about the movie other than that it is based on a Japanese anime and scheduled to be released next year. One newspaper, however, has likened the scene below to Jun facing down Hollywood, which makes me wonder whether we will again see the nationalist crap that followed the release of “D-Wars.” (Hopefully, we won’t)

that’s hot.
Disregarding the potential of D-War II (it won’t, since she’s an actor and not a writer/director/producer/manipulative bastard), I hope she succeeds. Not because she’s Korean, but because she is indescribably … HOT!
Big to differ. Jeon Jihyun is not hot and there are plenty of regular, non famous girls on the streets of Seoul that are way hotter. I admit she is not horribly ugly like Lucy Liu, but hot she is not.
Well at least she’s using a jingeum and not a katana.
Sometimes she doesn’t photograph well, but she is always alluring in her movies. Hot.
Rarely has a woman’s allure depended so completely on her hairstyle, which has therefore stayed constant for the past seven years. A portal voted her most boring hairstyle.
(Yi Chun-gi got honors in the male category.)
I wonder by what criteria “loomis” at Extreme Movie considers this a Hollywood movie. Because it’s in English?
I personally hope it does turn into the same thing as D-Wars in every way. When it flops it makes for great reading on the blogs!
Sorry . . . made a mistake. I re-read the articles. No one is claiming that this is a Hollywood film. My bad.
What’s with the sexualized school girl image?

Amen. And while we’re on that topic, three syllables: 문근영. That GS Caltex commercial is just plain disturbing.
According to IMDB, it is a Hollywood movie.

Spewer: Can you explain? It looks like a katana, though I know very little about swords. I did a search on jingeum and couldn’t find anything either. Considering she plays a Japanese girl though (kinda ironic isn’t it), it’d make sense she’d be using a Japanese weapon.
Where’s Buffy when you need her?
When the sun doesn’t rise for 30 days.
To arthjourneyman:
I looked over the IMDb page, and I can’t see where Hollywood is involved. Please clarify.
(Just to be sure we’re on the same page, I’m taking “Hollywood” to refer to the mainstream American movie establishment.)
if this is a blade movie and it does not have Wesley Snipes in it (and I doubt it will considering his present condition) it will bomb… though I hope for her sake it doesn’t
oh “blood” whoops my bad…
