"Yoon So Yi"


Yoon So-yi (born Moon So-yi on January 5, 1985) is a South Korean actress.

Yoon So-yi debuted as a model in Graffiti Magazine in 2001. After a few years of print and commercial modeling, she auditioned for Ryu Seung-wan's action comedy Arahan in 2004. Based on a popular South Korean comic, Arahan explored the consequences of unleashing an ancient evil spirit into a modern city, with Yoon's character part of a hidden school of ancient masters who train a naive young policeman to fight this evil force. Yoon underwent strict training for six months in a film action school, where she had to overcome her phobia of height The film was a relative commercial success, with one review describing her as "tall and attractive in an excellently non-cutesy way." She received a Best New Actress nomination at the 2004 Blue Dragon Film Awards.
Yoon next starred in the TV drama Say You Love Me, a dark, twisted love story between four people. This led to a friendship with her co-star Kim Rae-won, with whom she starred in a series of advertisements for Samsung Digital Plaza. When Kim later launched his own management company Bless Entertainment, she would also join his stable of stars.
After playing Jung Joon-ho's love interest in The Twins, Yoon was cast in Shadowless Sword, a wuxia martial arts epic set in ancient China. In the role of a beautiful young swordswoman who protects the future king, Yoon says that she was inspired by Anita Mui in The Heroic Trio, and that the strong-willed female character appealed to her. She learned wushu for three months in Korea, then wire action from the Chinese stunt team.



In 2006 she became part of the ensemble cast of Goodbye Solo, written by renowned drama writer Noh Hee-kyung. Even though her dramas do not attract a large number of viewers, Noh has gained a cult following for her in-depth portrayal of ordinary characters, taking a more human natural approach through realistic and yet emotional lines. Goodbye Solo featured seven characters of different generations and backgrounds, as they reflect on human nature and relationships. Yoon would later work again with mostly the same crew in the 2-episode TV special Several Questions That Make Us Happy.
Goodbye Solo's writer Noh and veteran actress Bae Jong-ok introduced Yoon to Join Together Society (JTS), a Seoul-based Buddhist international relief agency (Yoon herself is a Buddhist). Since then she has been extremely active in charity work for JTS, spearheading street fund drives and various programs to benefit underprivileged children in North Korea and developing countries.
An athlete in junior high, Yoon was a Sports Model major at Dongduk Women's University, but eventually dropped out due to showbiz commitments. She later enrolled in Dongguk University as a Theatre and Film major, slowing down her acting activities to focus on her studies and becoming known in the Korean press as one of the very few celebrity model students, with regular attendance and good grades. Yoon graduated in 2011.
Her next project Auction House attempted a different format from the standard serialized Korean drama. The twelve-episode season 1 had four directors and four writers, airing one episode every week, with each director producing his own segment in his own style, crossing genres. The episodic format was not a hit with Korean audiences (despite a season 2 focusing on plastic surgeons with a completely different cast).
Yoon played a former reporter struggling to adjust to life as a chaebol daughter-in-law in Glass Castle; the drama was a modest success. In 2009 she was cast as a last-minute replacement leading lady in the quirky Lee Jun-ki-starrer Hero. Despite being praised as a well-acted and solid drama, Hero received low ratings. Yoon's next film Try to Remember, about lovers in the past whose love transcends time and brings them together in the present day, premiered at the Puchon International Fantastic Film Festival.




She was cast as Queen Seondeok in a specially commissioned 20-minute film for the Gyeongju World Culture Expo. Titled Byeongnucheon ("The Bracelet of Blue Tears"), the fantasy adventure aims to spearhead Korea's nascent stereoscopic film industry, and combines live action sequences with 3D animated computer graphics.
In 2011, Yoon's fusion sageuk Warrior Baek Dong-soo brought in high viewership ratings, topping its timeslot for 3 straight months. She immediately followed that with the Channel A cable series Color of Woman, replacing Eugene as the romantic comedy lead when the latter dropped out in the aftermath of her sister's car accident.
For her first variety MC job, Yoon co-hosted the 2012 televised magicians tournament King of Magic, which aired on cable for three weeks.
In 2013 spy action series Iris II: New Generation she played a South Korean college student who defects to North Korea, trains in the special forces and counter-terrorism units, then returns to her home country as a North Korean spy.

"Saat Ibu Memasak Di Dapur"

Gambar
Setelah makan malam bersama keluarga, seorang ibu dan kedua putrinya bersama-sama mencuci piring di dapur. Sementara sang ayah dan putranya asyik menonton televisi di ruang keluarga.  Tiba-tiba terdengar suara piring pecah dari arah dapur. Sang putra langsung menatap ke ayahnya dan berkata “Pasti yang memecahkan piring itu ibu ya pak?”. Ayahnya membalas “Kok kamu tahu?”. “Karena aku tidak mendengar ibu membentak siapapun di arah dapur sana” jawab si putra.  (Jadilah seorang ibu yang menyayangi dengan cara tidak memarahi anak dengan membentaknya, sehingga sang anak menjadi ketakutan dan memiliki trauma yang bisa terbawa sampai dia besar nanti) .

PEMBANTU LUGU

Ini cerita dari seorang teman yang bertahun silam pergi ke Papua New Guinea untuk urusan bisnis. Ia ditemani oleh dua orang temannya dan tinggal di sebuah rumah di pedalaman. Rumah ini dirawat oleh seorang lokal, yang tugasnya hanya dua yakni merawat rumah dan memasak. Semuanya oke-oke saja, kecuali satu hal: mereka punya satu botol anggur yang mahal yang disimpan di ruang makan, yang setiap harinya sepertinya terus berkurang padahal mereka tidak pernah meminumnya. Anggur ini mahal dan mereka ingin menyimpannya untuk acara spesial. Yang mereka temukan adalah setiap hari jumlahnya sedikit demi sedikit berkurang. Mereka pun memutuskan untuk mengukur kekurangannya dengan membuat garis kecil pada botol, sehingga apabila memang berkurang lagi mereka bisa tahu dengan jelas. Dan setelah membuat garis tersebut, mereka menemukan memang jumlah anggur dalam botol tersebut berkurang terus setiap hari, walau sedikit demi sedikit. Mereka tidak punya tertuduh lain lagi selain sang penungg
