Park Bo Gum Joins Kim Nam Gil In Talks To Star In New Historical Film

Park Bo Gum may be teaming up with Kim Nam Gil for an upcoming film! On August 14, MyDaily reported that Park Bo Gum has been offered the role of Prince Anpyeong in the upcoming film “Dream Journey to the Peach Blossom Land” (literal title). In response to the report, a representative from Park Bo Gum’s agency THEBLACKLABEL stated, “He has received an offer for ‘Dream Journey to the Peach Blossom Land’ and is currently reviewing it.” “Dream Journey to the Peach Blossom Land” is based on the celebrated landscape painting by Joseon-era painter An Gyeon. The painting was based on a dream of Prince Anpyeong, who visited a utopian paradise in his sleep and later described the vision to An Gyeon, who then brought it to life. The film will center on King Sejong’s sons, Prince Suyang and Prince Anpyeong, against the backdrop of the 1453 Coup of Gye Yu—a pivotal political upheaval in which Prince Suyang ousted the supporters of King Danjong to seize the throne. Kim Nam Gil is in talks to portray Prince Suyang, while Park Bo Gum has reportedly been offered the role of Prince Anpyeong. Stay tuned for further updates!

Watch: Lim Yoona Is Determined To Make Lee Chae Min Fall For Her Cooking In “Bon Appétit, Your Majesty” Teasers

Upcoming drama “Bon Appétit, Your Majesty” has shared new teasers! Based on a popular web novel, “Bon Appétit, Your Majesty” is a fantasy romance drama starring Lim Yoona as Yeon Ji Young, an award-winning French chef who winds up traveling 500 years back into the past. There, she meets despotic king Lee Heon (Lee Chae Min), who is known as the worst of tyrants—and who also happens to be a discerning gourmet. The first teaser captures Yeon Ji Young as she struggles to adapt after suddenly falling into an unfamiliar space. Her appearance, unlike anything seen in that era, draws wary glances from everyone around her. Even when she declares, “I’m from 500 years in the future,” no one believes her—and to make matters worse, she is dragged away by palace guards. However, Yeon Ji Young does not falter and uses her honed skills as a chef to find a way to survive. She captivates King Lee Heon by serving him royal dishes with mysterious cooking techniques and menus that were unheard of in that era. At the end of the teaser, Yeon Ji Young is seen dressed in a royal chef’s uniform as she declares, “Today, I became the tyrant’s chef,” leaving viewers curious whether she will safely return to her original time. The second teaser focuses on King Lee Heon, who encounters a mysterious “ghost woman” and becomes enchanted by her cooking. The teaser highlights Lee Heon’s absolute power. In one scene, he overturns the royal table, while in another, he enjoys hunting despite the pleas of his ministers. However, his actions seem absurd to Yeon Ji Young, who is from the future and has a modern mindset. In one scene, she bluntly rebukes him and even strikes his head with her hand. Angered by her disrespectfulness, Lee Heon punishes Yeon Ji Young by locking her in the royal kitchen. He warns her, “If even a single day repeats the same dish or it doesn’t suit my taste—.” However, he is soon seen thoroughly enjoying the meals prepared by Ji Young, hinting that he has already fallen under the spell of her culinary skills. Viewers are left curious about which dish managed to captivate the picky King Lee Heon. Watch the teaser below! “Bon Appétit, Your Majesty” will premiere on August 23 at 9:10 p.m. KST.

Chun Woo Hee Transforms Into A Management Team Leader In New Drama “My Youth”

JTBC’s upcoming Friday drama “My Youth” has unveiled the first glimpse of Chun Woo Hee in character! “My Youth” is a romance drama that tells the story of Sunwoo Hae (Song Joong Ki), who begins to live an ordinary life later than most people, and Sung Je Yeon (Chun Woo Hee), who must disrupt her first love’s tranquility for her own success. The stills of Sung Je Yeon show her as a management team leader, far removed from the life plan of a model student whose days once revolved entirely around college entrance exams. Never letting her phone out of sight, Sung Je Yeon wears a warm smile, but her sharp eyes reveal the passion of a seasoned manager. A bulldozer when it comes to speaking her mind, Sung Je Yeon still excels at mental care, noticing even the smallest changes in actress Mo Tae Rin (Lee Joo Myung). In the still, she is seen talking with her, making eye contact as as the actress worries over her script, showing her kind and attentive side. For Sung Je Yeon, the time spent with Sunwoo Hae, who shone brighter than anyone during the gray, routine-filled days of her 19th year, was a welcome escape from a life lived strictly by the rules. Reuniting as adults, her first love, Sunwoo Hae, brings back emotions she had long forgotten. Sung Je Yeon’s radiant smile hints at the changes he has brought to her life. Chun Woo Hee said, “‘My Youth’ is a compelling story because it captures both love and personal growth. There are clumsy and painful moments, but that’s what makes it even more beautiful. It lets you look back on someone from your past with fondness.” She went on to describe her character, saying, “She’s someone who thinks love can be treated like work and dives in headfirst. Her clumsy attempts at love are endearing, and it will be fun to watch her emotions, feelings, and expressions slowly grow.” She added, “I tried to portray Sung Je Yeon’s changing feelings toward Sunwoo Hae with care.” “My Youth” is set to premiere on September 5 at 8:50 p.m. KST and will air two consecutive episodes every Friday. The drama will be available on Viki.
