Park Yoochun “SungKyunKwan Scandal vs Miss Ripley”- How Much Has He Matured?


Actor Park Yoochun, in his second acting challenge, has been praised for showing a charm and maturity in his acting that differs from his first drama. Park Yoochun announced his entrance into the acting world via last year’s KBS drama “SungKyunKwan Scandal,” and recently returned as “Song Yoo Hyun” the gentle conglomerate heir in MBC’s Monday-Tuesday drama “Miss Ripley.” In his previous role he played a rigid and critical “pretty rich boy,” and swept the KBS Drama Awards ‘ newcomer award as well as the best newcomer and popularity awards at the 47th Baeksang Art Awards, successfully debuting as an actor.
As a singer, Park Yoochun is one of the representative Korean idols, and now he puts his all into acting. After “SungKyunKwan Scandal,” he received numerous good scripts and acting invites but deliberated carefully before picking his next project. Despite being busy with group activities, he found time to study acting and undergo training. Therefore, the actor Park Yoochun in “Miss Ripley” has a more mature and seasoned feel.
As a rookie actor challenging drama for the first time in “SungKyunKwan Scandal,” Park Yoochun had already received reviews beyond expectations. In short, he “has great potential.” He brought life into the role of Lee Seon Joon, who was born into a rich family, a rigid man who possesses knowledge, manners and is talented in all fields, yet is confused when facing love for the first time. With a blend of gentle expressions and controlled acting, Park Yoochun successfully interpreted the process of growth and maturity in the critical young man. The audiences and even professionals gave him good reviews. He managed to get not one but two top acting awards for newcomers with his debut work.
Furthermore, in the recent “Miss Ripley,” Park Yoochun plays a charming but firm young man, which is similar to his previous role, but is interpreted perfectly as a distinctly different character. No longer strict, a friendly Park Yoochun displays a gentlemanliness and warmth towards everyone he meets. However, a cloud of mysterious sadness plagues him. His actions show his concern towards his wealthy background as well as the memories of his birth mother.

In a sense, when “Miss Ripley’s” Song Yoo Hyun (Park Yoochun) is compared to Lee Seon Joon in “SungKyunKwan Scandal,” his character seems more complex. Especially in the later part of the drama when Song Yoo Hyun finds out the true identity of Jang Miri whom he loves, the change in his emotions should be one of raw misery. At the crossroads where his fate hangs in a balance, how Song Yoo Hyun’s complex yet subtle emotional changes will be executed is something that people are looking forward to.
Entering into the world of acting through “SungKyunKwan Scandal,” whether Park Yoochun will be able to once again successfully perform with “Miss Ripley” is something to look out for.

To me, this stage bears a special meaning.” Also, “My heart feels heavy, having to part with “Mozart!” again. I feel like I give 120% in my performances for “Mozart!” and I’m really thankful for the audiences and the passionate support they have given me,” he expressed with deep emotion.

Big Bang’s Daesung: Most Discussed Person Online in June


On July 5, the online research marketing platform of SK Marketing and Co., Tillion Panel, released the results of their online analysis for June, which surveyed 6,782 men and women.
According to Newsis, Big Bang‘s Daesung was revealed to have attracted the most discussion for the entire month of June, with 38.5% of the votes.
“Daesung fatal car accident” was the most searched term on the portal sites, referring to the incident that occurred last May 31.
In second place with 14.1% was actor Cha Seung Won, who recently starred as Dok Go Jin in MBC’s popular drama The Greatest Love, along with veteran singer Im Jae Bum, who made headlines for wearing a Nazi uniform during his nationwide tour.
While the results of the survey show just how much of a shock Daesung’s accident was to the Korean public, it also proved the huge popularity of the drama The Greatest Love, with Cha Seung Won and co-star Gong Hyo Jin (6th place with 3.1%) both making it on the list.
Another notable celebrity figure on the list for June is girl group Iris member Lee Eunmi, who was stabbed to death by her ex-boyfriend on June 19.
Meanwhile, on June 4, without any prior notice, Daesung’s variety show, Night After Night, had its final broadcast earlier this week. The other MCs (Kim Jae Dong, Tak Jae Hoon, Park Myung Soo, Jung Yong Hwa, UEE) did not even get to say their formal goodbyes, and Daesung was (again) completely edited out. SBS has not yet announced which program will fill the empty timeslot.
