[33_snowfish]

Movie Title: Attack on the Pin-Up Boys/Attack on the Pretty Boys
Directed by: Lee Kwon
year released in Korea: 2007
Starring: Super Junior

Synopsis:
Described as a high school comedy-mystery, the film is about three good-looking high school boys played by Choi Si Won, Kim Hee Chul and Kim Young-woon (also known as Kang In), who become the target of attacks.

Kim Ki-beom plays the narrator who sees a pattern of attacks against pretty boys, while Lee Dong-hae helps him investigate. The rest of the Super Junior members play supporting roles.




Thoughts:
Super Junior is a group that actually dove me into fangirl land. (The challenge of trying to remember 13 members names really gets your energy up somehow.) Somewhere in there I ended up getting sucked into JE and haven't really kept up with Super Junior's activities that much. I always saw them though b/c they are on basically every korean tv program. So when I heard they were doing a Spice Girls type movie featuring themselves I had to make a post. =D If you don't like Super Junior then I seriously don't recommend anyone to watch the crack that lies ahead. But if you want to start getting into them I included the music video that goes along with the movie, for some of their singing and behind the scenes stuff.

Extra Facts:
the group's leader who is also known as Lee Teuk, said he hopes people would not judge the film as just an ``idol movie." ``Since we debuted (as a group), we announced we will work not just as singers, but also as MCs and actors. I hope people will get rid of their prejudices a little, and watch us as new actors, not as singers," he said, during the film's press conference at Imperial Palace Hotel in Apgujeong, Thursday.

Twelve out of the 13 Super Junior members were cast in the movie, except for Cho Kyu-hyun who is still recuperating from a car accident last April.
