Ding Yiyu X Yu Chenghao → An Xiao Xie X Lu Yun, historical drama star tour

It is being noted whether a new theater star will be born at the Anbang Theater, where the drama was again in heavy entertainment.

Historical drama has once again ushered in a prosperous period, and whether the TV drama field will give birth to new historical drama stars has attracted much attention.

Recently, actor Jung Il-woo began to show off his use as a dramatist with the MBN drama "Bosam-Stealing Destiny" ("Bosam"). MBN's first drama "Bossam" was successful in drawing attention on the first broadcast on 1 January, with a national viewing rate of 3.1% (based on Nielsen Korea paid households) to record the highest broadcast of MBN's all-time drama.

Recently, actor Ding Yiyu showed his excellence as a costume dramatist through the MBN costume drama "Kidnapper - Stealing Destiny". MBN's first costume drama "Kidnappers - Stealing Destiny" premiered on The 1st, setting a record for the highest TV series premiere in MBN's history with 3.1% (Nielsen's Korean fee-based household standard), successfully attracting the attention of the audience.

Yoo Seung-ho, a believing drama star, is also raising fans' expectations with the news that he will return to the drama after four years. In the meantime, Yoo Seung-ho, who has played a luxury role in SBS's "The King and I," MBC's "Taewangsa Shingi", and "Sunduck King", and has become a drama star in SBS's "Musa Baek dong-so" and MBC's "Lord-Masquerade", will present a new drama in kbs2 "Thinking about the Moon When It Blooms" later this year.

The news that the trustworthy costume drama idol Yu Chenghao has starred in the costume drama again after 4 years has also made fans look forward to it even more. Previously playing child roles in TV series such as SBS "The King and Me", MBC's "The Four Gods of the King" and "Queen of Zende", and starring in SBS's "Samurai Hakutoshu" and MBC's "Monarch - The Masquerade Master", historical drama star Yu Chenghao will bring a new historical drama through KBS2 "Thinking of the Moon when the Flowers Bloom" in the second half of this year.

In addition to the actors who have established a stable position in the drama, there will be a line of new dramas that will challenge the drama. First, shin-star Ahn Hyo-seop has been cast as the male heroine of SBS's "Hongcheongi," which is considered to be a 2021 drama expectation, and is raising interest. This is because Jang Tae-yu PD, who has performed high-quality dramas such as SBS 'Flower Garden of the Wind' and 'Deep-Rooted Wood', will show off his directing power again in a long time, and kim Yoo-jeong has been casting as a heroine, raising the expectations of fans.

Actors like this who have built a stable position in historical dramas and newcomers to historical dramas who challenge historical dramas will also appear. First of all, the new star An Hyo-seop was designated as the male protagonist of the 2021 historical drama "Hong Tianji" expected to be SBS, which attracted much attention. Because "Hong Tianji" is a work that shows a high degree of completion of costume drama director Zhang Taiyou with SBS "Painter of the Wind" and "Tree Roots" and other works, Kim Yu-jeong plays the heroine, which makes the expectation of costume drama fans soar.

Then SF9's Loon is the first male heroine of KBS2's second half drama, "Yeonmo," to make the first drama of his life.

Seems. "Yeonmo," based on the manga of the same name, is a secret court romance drama that takes place when a child who was born a twin and abandoned just because she was a girl dies when twin Oraby Ceson dies and becomes crown prince. I wonder what kind of romance Loon will have with his heroine, Park Eun-bin, in the role of the crown prince's teacher.

As the male protagonist of kbS2's tv series "Love", SF9 Luyun will appear in a historical drama for the first time. Adapted from the comic of the same name, "Love" is a court romance drama that tells the story of a pair of twins born, abandoned because they are baby girls, and with the death of their twin brother Shisun, the woman dressed as a man and becomes the prince of the world. Lu Yun plays the role of Wang Shizi's teacher Zheng Jiyun, and it is curious to see what kind of romance will unfold with the heroine Park Eun-bin.

It is also eye-catching that 2PM members Ok Taek-yeon and Jun-ho will cast their tickets to the Anbang Theater in a private drama. Ok Taek-yeon, who recently attracted attention with tvN's "Vincenzo," will be the first drama of his life when he confirms tvN's "Assayy" which is currently reviewing his appearance. In March, Jun-ho was cast in MBC's "Dress-up Red End", which is scheduled to be organized later this year. Although he has previously experienced dramas such as "The Memory of a Narrow Woman-Carl" and "Kibang Do-do", it is the first time in an anbang theater with a long breath, and it is likely to be a new challenge for Jun-ho in that he is a male heroine and a high-weight political station.

2PM members Yuzawa Yan and Joon-ho also returned to the TV theater with costume dramas at the same time. Recently, through tvN's "Vincenzo", Tamazawa's performance, if it is decided to star in tvN's "Goshi Cao Yi Biography", which is currently under discussion, will become the first historical drama in his life. Junhao, who retired in March this year, will star in MBC's "Red Trim on the Sleeve" broadcast in the second half of this year, although he has had historical experience through the movies "The Memory of the Heroine - Knife" and "Brothel Boy", the TV series with a long shooting time is the first time, and it is the male protagonist and the role of Zhengzu with a different weight, which is expected to become a new challenge for Junhao.

In the background of this row of dramas, there are various platforms and production investments that have been made. It is also noted that a new drama star will be born in this atmosphere. A drama official said, "For a while, the production cost was significantly higher than in modern theater, and PPL was difficult to do, making it difficult to produce dramas. However, as platforms increased and content demand increased, investments became active in the drama."

Historical dramas like this emerge in an endless stream, which is a diversified platform and a production investment that is active as a result. In addition, in such an atmosphere, whether new costume drama stars can be born has also attracted much attention. A person related to a TV series said: "The production cost has always been much higher than that of modern dramas, and it is difficult to insert advertisements, which is not easy to produce costume dramas. However, with the increase of platforms and the increase of content demand, investment in costume dramas has also become active."

Another official said, "There is a unique sense of impasse or fantasy that drama gives. Even newcomers whose acting power has not yet been verified can experience another world of acting while playing a drama, or create opportunities to be recognized for acting. In the meantime, many of the actors and newcomers have become stars in the drama, and now it's time for another new drama star."

Another person concerned said: "The peculiar repression or fantasy brought about by historical dramas. Newcomers whose acting skills have not yet been verified can also experience another world of acting skills in the process of starring in costume dramas, and can also create opportunities for their acting skills to be recognized. In the past, many child stars and new talents in historical dramas have become stars, and now it is time to give birth to new historical drama stars again."
