Lee Dahae and Micky Yoochun casted in new drama
There was a rumor that the actress Lee Dahae (East of Eden) and actor/singer Micky Yoochun (Sungkyunkwan Scandal) will be together in a new drama. Well folks, the rumor was right. They are confirmed casts of the upcoming MBC drama ‘Goodbye Miss Ripley‘. The thing that interests netizens is the fact that it is not the oh-so cliche love story. But it is more serious and is inspired by a national scandal that shook the media in 2007: it is the infamous ‘Shin Jeong Ah’ a university professor and art curator at Dongguk University, who forged her credentials to get hired, and then embezzled funds from the art gallery’s corporate sponsorships. She got hired in 2005 under the belief that she had earned a BFA and MBA from the University of Kansas and a PhD from Yale, when in fact she was only a high school graduate. Her boyfriend Byeon Yang-kyoon, 19 years her senior, was a presidential secretary at the time, and helped her forge the paperwork and get hired.
The drama isn’t a direct true crime story, but apparently is inspired by the scandal. How closely it resembles Shin Jeong-ah’s story remains to be seen, but so far it’s a good hint as to where the main character, played by Lee Da-hae, will go. Her character loses her family when she’s young, and gets adopted into an unhappy home, which is just the beginning of her unfortunate destiny. It probably speaks to the character’s motivation for the ensuing schemes. Meanwhile, actress Kang Hye Jung will also be making her return to dramas as the main character of “Goodbye Miss Ripley”. This will be her first time appearing in a drama since 2007’s “Flowers For My Life“ along with Kim Sung Woo (IRIS, Athena).
I wonder how Micky Yoochun fit into all this drama. You see, he is the goody-good romantic boy in his last drama and now he starts to be an influential boyfriend who helps her girlfriend do the crime thing. But who knows? Maybe his character is the other way around. Maybe he will still be the goody-good, less romantic and more righteousness man. Right?
Well, let’s find what what will happen in the drama which premieres on MBC this May 2011.
