Day 23: Recommend an old TV series that Kim Nam-Gil starred in
I recently finished watching When Spring Come and am going to recommend it to everyone. It is quite underrated and tend to be brushed under the table when it comes to Kim Nam-Gil’s works. He is credited under his stage name (Lee Han) here. This series is does not require brain surgery, lighthearted and comical in many ways, and has superb supporting cast like Lee Soon-Jae and Kim Kap-Soo.
Here’s a mini introduction to the series:
Clips from series, Nam-Gil oppa was such a cutie when he was young:
Also, the full opening themesong ( 꽃피는 봄이 오면 ), which was a delight to listen to, wish the series OST was still available to be purchased though:
Day 22: An anime character that you would like Kim Nam-Gil to portray in live action
I think Nam-Gil oppa would make one awesome Vinsmoke Sanji from the One Piece anime/manga series. I adore his Sanji’s Mr. Prince persona. He is quirky, suave, kind, funny, dorky, intelligent, master of many crafts, and attractive. He normally combats with his slender long legs and tries to protect his hand due to his culinary profession, but he is as skillful with knives in battle. Nam-Gil oppa would definitely pull a superb mature version of this character – cool as a cucumber, but little insane when it comes to the ladies. lol
