CNBLUE’s Jung Yonghwa and actress Park Shin Hye may get a second chance at love!
The two have been asked to star in Producer Pyo Min Soo’s new MBC drama, ‘Festival’, which is planned to air in June.
“‘Festival’ is a youth melo drama based on a school of performing arts,” a production staff member relayed while on the phone with Newsen on the 24th. The staff member explained, ”The male lead is a band member at school. We couldn’t decide between choosing an actor who could play an instrument or a singer. We offered the role to Jung Yonghwa because he has acted before.”
Jung Yonghwa is seriously considering taking the role. His agency FNC Music confirmed that Yonghwa did get the offer, but his conflict lies with CNBLUE’s comeback, slated for the fourth week of March.
Meanwhile, Park Shin Hye’s agency Aba Entertainment said that they liked the story-line. “We think Park Shin Hye can show off her charm by acting as a lively young girl,” said the agency. “The script is funny. We are currently in talks with the production team, and we’ll decide soon.” Park Shin Hye, who starred in the movie ‘Cyrano: Dating Agency’, is about to begin classes at Joongang University.
The two have already acted together through the 2009 SBS drama, ‘You’re Beautiful’. At that time, Park Shin Hye played ‘Go Minam‘, who fell in love with Jang Geun Suk’s character, ‘Hwang Taekyung‘; however, Jung Yonghwa’s character, ‘Kang Shinwoo‘, loved ‘Go Minam’ intensely.
Many “You’re Beautiful” fans are already buzzing over the possibility of another drama with Yonghwa and Shin Hye, as they portrayed a popular couple together.
