JYJ’s Park Proves Himself a Prince of Primetime Soaps
Many boy band singers try their hand at acting but few have managed to pull it off with such aplomb as Park Yu-chun of JYJ. He has garnered praise for his acting abilities in a series of dramas over the last three years, but it was his role in the recently-ended SBS TV series “Rooftop Prince” that really impressed critics as he showed a greater maturity as a master of his craft.
In the drama, he played the role of Lee Gak, a Chosun Dynasty prince who traveled through time to the present. Park initially won over viewers with his comic antics, but as the story developed he gradually fleshed out the character and got the audience more involved in the drama by showing the prince’s hidden charisma and hinting at his secret.
“I was lucky that I got to act in a drama where I felt totally connected to the script, and was able to work with other great actors and a terrific production crew,” he said. “If I had let the responsibility of playing the male lead overwhelm me, the job would have been exhausting. But I was able to immerse myself in my role and it was great fun.”
Park is scheduled to head to the Indonesian surfing Mecca of Bali for a photo shoot this month before he meets with fans and shoots commercials in Korea. He said he will be sifting through more TV scripts before JYJ gets back into full swing next year.

I love you more today than I did yesterday. And I will love you even more tomorrow than I do today. PYC fighting! May your acting skills improve even more in your next acting project. Be successful always too, Amen!
On a side note, does it mean that their group activity would be held off until next year? Well then I wish them the best of luck in their respective solo activities.
Even I am new to one of your followers.. as the days goes by… I’m getting more interested on you, I know you already have spot in my heart
And I agree that you have a charisma as an actor and lot’s of potentials you only have to do continue to discover yourself more and you will find out all those things that you’re capable to do it. MORE POWER TO YOUR CAREER
I think that is the best decision for this year, since some of problem in JYJ still unfinished you have to concentrate all of you to your respective SOLO’s activities and to learn more about yourself that you can give on your career. Anyway whatever it is we always support you, promise
“He said he will be sifting through more TV scripts before JYJ gets back into full swing next year.”
So, it’ll be solo all da way until next year??
If that’s the case, then I pray for our Chun to be even luckier to land himself in yet another great drama with interesting plot and all.
Make it a double bomb this year, Princey, haha~~
A medical drama and our Chun acting as one of them doctors would be great!
^^
Medical doctor? umm yeah he can still be a part of a team although as an insanely talented and strong headed male doctor lead is a no no for me.
@heistheY
Why not? Ahh!! I know why, you must’ve watched “Brain”, right??
haha not really can’t just imagine him with that role
Whatever you do, all the best to you!
