Ji Sung – Kim Jaejoong. With “Boss” Tows in Fans of Japan
Actor Ji Sung and JYJ’s Kim Jaejoong will tow in the Japanese fans.
The SBS Wednesday drama Protect the Boss in which the two actors stepped out as leads will land in the archipelago of Japan in the middle of next month. Japan’s KNTV and DATV starting on the 10th and 12th respectively will air one episode a week of Protect the Boss which finished this month at 18 episodes. Both stations slotted Boss on prime time, with KNTV airing it around 10pm on Tuesdays and DATV airing it around 11pm on Saturdays.
This is because of the popularity of Ji Sung and Kim Jaejoong as Korean Wave stars. Ji Sung gained Japanese fans early with the SBS drama All In and cemented his position withNew Heart and such. Kim Jaejoong is of course enjoying an explosive popularity in Japan with his activities as an actor, and in 2009 he even debuted in Japan earlier (than he did in Korea) with the one-act piece Heaven’s Postman in which he collaborated with Han Hyojoo.
A person close to Ji Sung relayed: “Recently when he attended Pusan International Film Festival, foreign fans swarmed and so we felt again the fact of his being a Korean Wave star. With Kim Jaejoong’s power added in also, we look forward to the popularity of the drama in Japan.”
