All aboard Neighborhood Hero

Park Sihoo-ssi as ex-secret agent in “Neighborhood Hero”

Since the announcement of Park Sihoo-ssi as the lead in the Korean drama “Neighborhood Hero, the Korean entertainment circle has been abuzzed about this drama.

Early last week, amidst the excitement of all the news on Park Sihoo-ssi from Ise Shima to Italy, quietly, the key cast of the drama is now all aboard, with the confirmation of the final key actor, Lee Suhyeok. His recent drama was playing the vampire in the period drama “Scholar who walks the night밤을 걷는 선비”.

The key cast line up of “Neigborhood Hero” is star-studded and their roles are as follows:

• Park Sihoo as ex-secret agent, Baek Siyoon who runs a neighborhood bar and who will be the champion to fight the evil in the neighborhood.
• Kwon Yuri as play writer, Bae Jungyeon,  who uses the bar run by Baek Siyoon as her work place to observe people who frequent the bar. Her interest is pique by one man.  
• Lee Suhyeok, though no announcement has been made of his role, I suspect he is the young man who has an ambition to become a police officer. He becomes Baek Siyoon’s sidekick against evil.
• Yoon Taeyoung as a Korean-American who grew up in a poor neighborhood, learned taekwondo to defend himself and eventually grew up to become a mobster.
• Jung Mansik as an intelligence agent and team leader who worked with Baek Siyoon.
• Jo Sungha as cool-headed policeman Im Taeho.

“Neighborhood Hero” is scheduled to start shooting in late September 2015 and will air in early 2016. 

Can’t wait to watch this much anticipated drama with Park Sihoo-ssi in the leading role. It has been a long while since his last drama, way too long in my opinion!

I am so glad he is finally back!

“邻家英雄”主要演员阵容

自从施厚君宣布会参演韩国电视剧“邻家英雄”，韩国娱乐圈已经大力关注这一部电视剧。

上周初，在施厚君日本伊势志摩活动和意大利专辑拍摄新闻的兴奋中，悄悄地，这部电视剧的所有主要演员，在李秀赫宣布参演，已经最终确认了。李秀赫近作是在“夜走书生밤을 걷는 선비”古装剧里当演吸血鬼。

最后主要演员阵容是星光闪闪的一帮：

• 朴施厚演前秘密特工白施允，自己开了一间酒吧，在邻里为邻家对抗邪恶，打抱不平。
• 侑莉演戏剧作家裴静妍，使用白施允的酒吧当她的工作室，去观察常去酒吧的客户。她对一位男士有着极大的好奇心。
• 李秀赫，虽然没有公布他的角色，我怀疑他是一位立志当警察的青年。他成为白施允对抗邪恶的伙伴。
• 尹泰榮演一位韩裔美国人，长大在一个贫穷的社区，年轻时学习跆拳道为自卫，长大后成为流氓。
• Jung Mansik演一个情报人员，是白施允工作的领队。
• 趙城何演冷静的警察任泰浩。

“邻家英雄”计划在2015年9月底开机，预计在2016年年初开播。

真的等期待观看这部被关注的，施厚君主演的电视剧。已经好长时间没有他的新电视剧了，我个人认为简直是太长时间了！

我很高兴他终于回归了！
