Park Shin-hye seeks image change through ‘Pinocchio’
Rising hallyu star Park Shin-hye is seeking change in her image as an actress through the upcoming drama “Pinocchio.”
Park was selected to play the female lead role of the drama on September with actor Lee Jong-suk. The two actors being popular in many Asian countries, fans are already anticipating the romantic chemistry between the two.
Park’s decision to star in the drama gained exceptional attention from fans and news report outlets. The main reason is that the role was relatively different from Park’s past characters in drama.
Park’s past major works include “The Heirs,” “Heartstrings” and “You’re Beautiful.” Her role in the drama often involved her being pure, innocent and feminine.
However, via “Pinocchio,” Park will go through major change in her image as an actress. She is to play the role of “Choi In-ha,” a young reporter who pursues justice while working for the social affairs desk.
“This is the first time for Park to play the role of a professionally working woman. So far, her parts in the drama were mainly high school or college school student,” an official of her agency was quoted as saying.
