Coming in at #1 is Jang Dong-Gun. Check out CNNGO.com’s complete hottest male celebs list below.
- Jang Dong-Gun
- Won Bin
- Bae Yong-joon
- Ju Jin-Mo
- Jo In-Sung
- Lee Jun-ki
- Daniel Henney
- Dennis Oh
- So Ji-sub
- Rain
- Yoon Sang-hyun
- Lee Min-ho
- Kim Hyun-Joong
- Kim Bum
- Jang Geun-suk
- Lee Seung-ki
- Choi Min-shik
- Song Seung-heon
- Kwon Sang-woo
- Ha Jung-woo
My take: Whoever made the list did a horrible job. I’m willing to bet $$ the person(s) compiling the list is/are not that familiar with Korean pop culture. For example, why would you include Daniel Henney and Dennis Oh on a list when they weren’t born nor do they live full-time in Korea?? In addition neither actors can fluently speak Korean. In my opinion Oh Ji Ho, Lee Byung Hun, Jang Hyuk and Cha Seung-Won should have been included. Period.

So Ji Sub completely broke down at Park Yong Ha’s mortuary. SJS and Song Seung Heon were close friends to the late actor. Park was found hanging lifeless from a mobile phone charger cable at his home early Wednesday morning.
South Korea’s government needs to IMMEDIATELY address the mental health issues and high suicide rate combating its celebrities. According to the Korean National Police Agency, there were 14,579 suicides in 2009, up 18.8 percent from 12,270 in 2008. Since suicide is preventable, S. Korea must take a pro-active stance in destigmatizing mental illness and encouraging its citizens to seek treatment.
Below are just some of the many stars who came to pay their respects to Park Yong Ha.

MY TAKE: The following people (and films) who SHOULD HAVE MADE the list point blank. Let’s roll:
- Zhang Yimou AND his 2002 film Hero
- Aamir Khan AND his 2008 film Ghajini & 2009 film 3 Idiots
- Amitabh Bachchan – How in gawd’s name can you forget Big B??
- Aaron Kwon – Again, how in gawd’s name can you forget Aaron??
- Hrithik Roshan AND his 2008 film Jodhaa Akbar
Before I sign off…what is America’s obsession with Zhang Ziyi?? I mean she’s talented but geez there are so many other Asian actresses out there who are even better (yeah, I said it).

Bae Yong-joon isn’t playin’. According to The Chosun Ilbo newspaper Yong-joon has filed a W100 million lawsuit against a travel agency that sold a tour package for Japanese tourists whose itinerary includes Bae’s favorite coffee shop, hair salon and home. The actor said the travel agency infringed on his right to privacy and unlawful use of his image to sell tours.
