Top idols JYJ’s Park Yuchun and Big Bang’s T.O.P (real name, Choi Seung-hyun) are announced to act on the big screen after one another. Although their main professions are as singers, they do acting at the same time and the two are expected to each appear in ‘Sea Fog’ (director Shim Sung-bo) and ‘Tazza 2’ (director Kang Hyung-chul), respectively.
Park Yuchun will be making his big screen debut through ‘Sea Fog’, which has ‘Snowpiercer”s director Bong Joon-ho attempting next to produce for the first time. Acting with the older senior Kim Yoon-seok, Yuchun is expected to transform into playing an impressive and attractive character. Based on the original stage play with the same title, and regarded as one of Chungmuro’s anticipated films, the movie depicts a crew’s life and love aboard a smuggling ship out at sea.
In ‘Sea Fog’ Park Yuchun will portray sailor Dong-shik while Kim Yoon-seok as the captain of the smuggling ship’s crew. To protect for love and filled with boldness from going against the captain, he is a tough and stubborn yet attractive character full of charisma. People have vicariously watched a number of TV dramas because of Park Yuchun’s acting and entertainment power while proving even more that his big screen debut is anticipated to create strong receptions.
A Chungmuro representative stated, “Park Yuchun and Choi Seung-hyun are rare examples among the idol singers who can really act properly,” saying, “apart from their fandom and stardom, their acting skills also are receiving high evaluations compared to and up against actual actors. Which is the reason to why many producers are paying attention to the two.”
Meanwhile ‘Sea Fog’ and ‘Tazza 2’ will shoot alongside of one another in September-October.

Yoochun’s acting is indeed impresive. It’s really hard for me to think which of his dramas I like the most (except “Miss Ripley”, the drama itself didn’t quite catch my interest as the other three). However, I think it should be mentioned that Jaejoong also acts rather well. I have just seen “Protect the Boss” drama, and I enjoyed it [and his acting] quite a lot.
What I like about Jaejoong in Protect the Boss is that his enjoyment of filming the drama (the camaraderie etc) translates really well into the drama itself.
Personally I find Jae’s acting to be a bit less natural compared to Chun’s. I do enjoy Jae’s work (especially since he improved a lot during Dr Jin, he was acting his heart out there) but sometimes it’s like you can tell that he’s acting out the character, instead of being the character you know? Whereas Yoochun in my opinion blends himself into his role really naturally.
for me the only flaw in Jaejoong’s acting is his inability to pretend to be happy or smile naturally if he’s not intended too …and since he had to do that a lot in PTB it showed he needed to improve …but in Dr. Jin his character was miserable most of the time so he shined .
and let’s not forget he’s not afraid to mess up his image for a role which is a good thing for an actor .
I hope it would be a box office movie..gud luck chunnie…besides good in acting yoochun and jaejoong is drama producers blue chip too..hope jaejoong choose a good drama next XD
OH so happy sorry guys I so love tops voice.. My Chunnie wins out because I love everything about him..
Nobody’s perfect in the eyes of people even we are all GOd’s creation . . . But everybody’s beautiful in their own ways. You may still love another artist but yet our JYJ should stand out to be most loved . . . Wish you won’t exchange them for the others especially our Chunnie Ha . . . Ha . . . Ha . . . JYJ fandom fighting!!!
I really hope this movie will be a box office success for YC!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am wishing him nothing but continue success!!!!!!!!!!!! Personally I usually do not care for the way Top looks. However, in this pic with the hair color and style, I actually find him attractive.
I’m always amused that so many ladies find TOP so attractive. I prefer my JYJ and out of Big Bang I prefer GD who seems so fun and witty. I also wanna raid his closet! Of course our Junsu had much nicer blue hair then TOP, sorry VIPs. Lol!
“I also wanna raid his closet! ”
OMG !! I love GD but NO! ..just NO !!
if anything I want to burn it .
and Junsu’s blue hair was AMAZING on him ….come back please .
Its his voice that I like I heard it without seeing him I am strictly a sound magnet that is why I love our boys hands down the best top is very guttural when he raps makes you go oh…
My family and I are so proud of you, Yoochun!!! We’re behind you all the way and upholding you in our prayers!!!
Yoochun did well with choosing all his previous dramas , now he needs a role that gives him real credit as an actor and not just an acting idol ….this movie might be it .
I’ve seen all of TOP’s acting work and I really don’t know how he is ” good ” as people put him to be ( and I’m saying this as someone who actually like the man ) …or is it that cold look that fits with the characters he played ? …I just do see it .
out of bigbang I’m more interested in GD doing a movie though …LOL
I’m really looking forward to this production (and the meaty role) for Yoochun, this’ll hopefully put him up there amongst his contemporaries. Also I love that it’s a movie, that way the writing wouldn’t be choppy to cater to the ratings, hate when that happens cos of the live shoots.
I think GD can actually act really well, haha. TOP was just okay in his debut drama I Am Sam, but that’s okay cos it was a sudden casting. Iris was… okay too I guess but it wasn’t anything to write home about. What blew me away was Into the Fire, he really held his own with all the other senior actors, but more than that, he made me believe his character. I wish he’d do a rom com/comedy though, he has the personality for it and both GD & TOP was great in all their drama parodies.
movies in general are a hit or miss , but I think the people behind this are no joke so we can expect smooth sailing for Yoochun in this .
as for GD …well , he was always the one doing most of the ” acting ” in bigbang’s MV anyway so I feel he would do good in an acting project …but I’m hopping it’s not him bein gsome kind of gangster .
Happy for Chunnie! But that TOP definitely has charisma! Definitley would like to see him on the screen! Would love to see them both in English verision of “Sea Fog!”
I don’t get the title. Who are God’s chosen ones? Are they the full time actors who are not singers? I think Yuchun and TOP are popular because they are God’s chosen ones because they have so much talent and charisma.
wow….amazing voices together and they will be working together acting? now is this a series, a movie, drama????
That’s not what the article meant to say. They won’t be working together, their announcements of movie roles came out pretty much one after another. Different movies, but filming starts around similar timing.
Dayum! I watched all his dramas and a movie is most welcomed!! I like actor Yoochun as much as I would like to hear him sing!! Sea fog fighting!!
I think Yoochun did a good job in his dramas, especially in Miss You, because the character is very difficult, though some people don’t like the story.
Yoochun likes to choose complicated and even twisted characters, which is risky, but he succeeded. I am so proud of him.
I watched some other Korean dramas with singers acting in them. I do find Yoochun much better. He’s like a pro. No doubt film makers are interested in him.
Hmmm… seems a tight competition between two guys. All the best for Yoochun
Our Chunnie is hands down a very talented actor!! He isn’t afraid to face the challenging roles. I can’t wait to see him in Sea Fog. Park Yoochun Fighting!
hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
can you imagine them singing together…wow that would be so different amazing
hope the movie can be allowed to show in China cinema….
I’m happy and proud for Yoochun..wishing him & Sea Fog team all the best..we will pray for ur success for sure..Let’s rockin’ the sea babe!
