[NEWS] 120110 Yoochun turns into a prince for new drama

He’s played Prince Charming types before (the noble aristocrat in Sungkyunkwan Scandaland the chaebol in Miss Ripley), but now Park Yoochun is going to play an actual prince for Rooftop Prince, a new SBS drama to air in March.

The story sounds like a fantasy fusion piece, unfolding around a Joseon-era crown prince who loses his beloved princess. He and his trusty vassals skip forward 300 years into the 21st century. How that happens we don’t yet know, but that gives him the chance to meet a woman in Seoul bearing the same face as the dead princess. Insert joke here about how they all look alike? 

No info yet on whether this will be a comedy or a melo (or, heck, a horror-action-thriller), but picturing a noble Joseon prince (basically Yoochun’s appearance in Sungkyunkwan, but even more regal) living in a tiny rooftop box of a room brings me an automatic chuckle. That’s prime comedy stuff, no? Forget how he’ll win the girl — how will he navigate the city? Figure out technology? Manage the newfangled bathrooms? If he’s literally time-jumping (rather than being reborn in a new life), then he’ll be a fish out of water, a nobody, a poor jobless dude. HEE. It’s like Vampire Idol meets Jeon Woo Chi meets Encino Man. Bring it on.

Quite a pedigree on the producers of Rooftop Prince: writing is Lee Hee-myung ofTomato, Success Story of a Bright Girl, and Bad Family, while directing is PD Shin Yoon-sub of KAIST, Love in Heaven, and Why Did You Come To Our House.

[NEWS] 120110 SungKyungKwan leads Park Yoochun and Yoo Ah In: Coming to SBS Television dramas in March

JYJ member and actor Park Yoochun along with actor Yoo Ah In are being said to be the two leads for upcoming SBS dramas in March.

Yoo Ah In is coming to television in March with the broadcast of his new drama Fashion House, while there have been confirmed appearances of Park Yoochun entering the building where the drama that he was asked to star in, Crown Prince of the Rooftop House, is currently being filmed. In 2009, these two popular actors led to the box office success of the KBS2 drama SungKyungKwan Scandal, and once again they will be meeting each other on SBS television.

Filming for Yoo Ah In’s Fashion House will start at the end of the month and will also star Shin Se Kyung, as well as SNSD’s Kwon Yuri, for whom this will be her first drama. They will leave for the United States [for filming] at the month’s end. 

Last year Park Yoochun’s role in MBC’s Miss Ripley showed that he will be able to deliver a promising performance as the protagonist in Crown Prince of the Rooftop House. Multiple broadcast officials have said “Park Yoochun seems to be looking at Crown Prince of the Rooftop House positively, and while it still is not confirmed, there have been verbal agreements to some extent that have been made”. Crown Prince of the Rooftop house is an SBS drama about a man who time travels from the Joseon Period to the present and is written by Lee Hee-myeong, who has also worked on the dramas Mr. Q, Tomato, My Fair Lady, and Bad Family.
