• Girls' Generation Yoona and Kim Seon Ho Confirm Lead Roles In Upcoming Romantic Comedy Movie '2 O' Clock Date'

    Girls' Geration Yoona Lim and Kim Seon Ho have been cast in the movie '2 O'Clock Date', which is produced by the production company of 'Mogadishu' and 'Hostage' and directed by Lee Sang-geun of 'Exit'.

    '2 O'Clock Date' is a romantic comedy about a warm and fairy-tale story that takes place when a man upstairs meets a woman downstairs with a secret beyond imagination.

    Actress Lim Yoon-ah, who was reborn as the number one casting star after being recognized for her acting skills through 'Cooperation', 'Exit', and 'Miracle', plays the woman in the lower house who has a secret. Yoona Lim is working with director Lee Sang-geun for the second time following the movie 'Exit', which was released in 2019 and mobilized 9.42 million viewers.

    Kim Seon-ho, who is receiving hot love calls from the film industry beyond theater and CRT, is expected to play the role of the man upstairs and play a sweet romance with Lim Yoon-a. It is said that Kim Seon-ho read the script and immediately expressed his intention to appear.

    Director Lee Sang-geun, who has emerged as a next-generation director in Chungmuro, with his first work 'Exit', a fresh and escaping typical work, captured two rabbits at the box office and received favorable reviews. Expectations are high whether it will find an audience with a comedy movie.

    Filming is expected to begin in March 2022.

  • BLACKPINK’s Jisoo Secretly Helped Her Friend Get a Role? Choi Hee Jin Reveals How Their Friendship Led to a Cameo in ‘Newtopia’

    Actress Choi Hee Jin, who impressed viewers with her performance in Motel California, opened up about her close friendship with BLACKPINK’s Jisoo — and how it led to her special cameo in Newtopia.

    Choi Hee Jin recently wrapped up her role as veterinarian Yoon Nan Woo in MBC’s Motel California, which ended on February 15th.

    The actress met with reporters on February 14 at her agency, Saram Entertainment, to talk about her busy schedule and her unexpected role in Newtopia.

    The actress revealed that her cameo in Newtopia happened because of her bond with Jisoo, who stars as the female lead in the drama.

    “Before I signed with my current agency, when I wasn’t with any company, I was offered the role of Jisoo unnie’s best friend in *Snowdrop. Even before the director contacted me, Jisoo unnie had already told me about it”, Choi Hee Jin shared.

    She added, “The director knew about the chemistry Jisoo unnie and I had in *Snowdrop*. Even though the role was very small, they asked if I would be willing to make a cameo in *Newtopia. It really is a tiny part”, she said, smiling shyly.

    The actress emphasized that the opportunity felt special because it reflected her real-life friendship with Jisoo. “There was really no one else but me who fit the role as her close friend, so they asked if I could do it. It’s a very small part, but I was happy to do it”, she said.

    Choi Hee Jin also shared how touched she was by the love she still receives for her past work with Jisoo.

    “Jisoo unnie personally reached out to me too, and we’re still very close. But more than anything, I was grateful that people still remember me from *Snowdrop. Since I made a special appearance this time, I’d love to ask Jisoo unnie to return the favor with a cameo in one of my future projects”, she said with a laugh.

    Fans are loving the sweet friendship between the two actresses — and many are already hoping to see them share the screen again in a bigger project!
