Hallyu stars promote Korean tourism in web drama

Written by Guest On August 26, 2010

2010-2012 is “Visit Korea Year(s?),” and nothing says “cultural exports” quite like a mini drama starring Asia’s favorite Hallyu stars.

DBSK‘s U-know Yunho and actors Han Chae Young, Park Shi Hoo, and Kim Bum met for a press conference last night for “[haru]~ Aru Ichinichi no Monogatari,” a 20 minute web drama that portrays the “current image of Korea via different characters such as script writer and action star.”

Representing the ten stars in the drama, Han Chae Young said, “I’m working hard in order to convey the beauty of Korea, thus I hope everyone will develop great interest and support for us.” Yunho added, “It’s been a while since I spoke Japanese. I’m doing my best to show everyone various sides and charms of myself.”

The drama revolves around a script writer named Da Hae, who is involved in a love triangle with Yunho, a rough-and-ready action star, and Kim Bum, a sensitive photographer. (Oho. Called it.) On top of that, she entertains a comedic relationship with Han Chae Young, a stylist, and Park Shi Hoo, the manager of a fan cafe. Oh, and somewhere in there, Big Bang makes an appearance and go to a school in the mountains to maintain a promise to their fans. Yeah, I don’t get it either.

The drama has already completed its first round of filming, and is expected to be released with the official opening of the “2010 Korea Tourism Organization’s Interactive Campaign Site” on November 24th. A preview of the drama will be released on September 11th.

LOL is sounds like your typical ridiculous drama so of course I’ll be watching it!
I wonder if they will have subtitles in lots of different languages? Since it is meant to promote tourism to Korea I’m sure that’ll be a good idea.
yap

well at least it’s only 20 minutes right? so it won’t be like other dramas where they drag for 20 or something episodes

20 minutes! I can do twenty minutes wrapped in a drama showcasing Korea’s charms. Definitely looking forward to this.

Han Chae Young absolutely rocks. She’s a real Korean diva. Hot and sexy. She’s got the looks and the curves. Always a joy to look at. Check out 96 hot scans of Han Chae Young.
