Park Ha-sun cast as queen in Dong Yi
by javabeans
Historical drama Dong Yi has cast Park Ha-sun to play the role of Queen In-hyun, the second wife of King Suk-jong. Han Hyo-joo plays the lead character Dong-yi, a water maid who later became royal consort and gave birth to a future king; Ji Jin-hee plays King Suk-jong.
Queen In-hyun was pushed aside and lost standing when the king passed her over for a more favored concubine Lady Jang, which led to court strife. Eventually she was reinstated and the ambitious Jang demoted, but In-hyun died mysteriously and Jang’s faction was accused of poisoning. In-hyun looks after Dong-yi, three years her junior, when Dong-yi first enters the palace, and develops a trust in her. Jang will be played by Lee So-yeon, and if her recent vengeful turn in Angel’s Temptation is any indication, it will be with great gusto. (We’ve got a mini-Angel’s Temptation reunion, with her co-star Bae Soo-bin playing a protective figure to Dong-yi.)
According to a representative with the production, they chose Park Ha-sun because they wanted to put a fresh face to the role. Park has played queen consort in the past, in the 2007-08 SBS sageuk King and I.
Dong Yi will air on Mondays and Tuesdays on MBC beginning in March.

"Jang will be played by Lee So-yeon, "
YESSSS!!!!! I didn't know that I want to see the Shining Temptation of a Sageuk. But I guess I do!! Loved the epic Bae Soo Bin vs. Lee So Yeon war in Angel of Temptation.
At this point, is Dong Yi even a fusion sageuk? Can't we just call it cosplay at this point and just have our fun with the show?

surprisingly, i'm actually really excited for this. i'm not a huge fan of han hyo joo but i also don't dislike her. i am, however, a HUGE fan of ji jin hee and fell in love with him in dae jang geum so this drama is definitely something i'll check out this march :]

Belleza - Finally I found someone who like Angel's Temptation too!
Yes I love how Lee So Yeon was in Angel's Temptation. But I found the casting directors really lack of imagination to pair her and Bae Soo Bin together! But maybe for once, Bae Soo Bin can be nice to her?

Lee Soo Yeon was also in the movie Untold Scandal (with Bae Yong Jun, Lee Min Sook, Jeon Do Yeon and Jo Hyun Jae). She was not a villain there, but neither was she the good girl. She and Jo Hyun Jae were the pawns in the game of love between BYJ and LMS.
She was also in the short internet film Pleasure of Love/Joy of Love (with Jo Hyun Jae again). They were the only 2 characters there, very little dialogue, but the film was beautifully made. Helmed by the same director as Untold Scandal.
There were rumors at that time that she and Jo Hyun Jae were an item. Any truth to this rumor?

I have never followed a historical drama weekly, but I think this will be the first one that I will.

Hahaha...selective vision or natural "tudor" reaction...I mindful that I am focusing not on her face, but on something sound like "possum" or "bosum"!! Em...^__________^

Woah. This means it's the 3rd time BSB and LSY in a drama together. Did you guys know they played a couple in 2005 MBC drama 'Lets Get Married'? You can check it out if you wanna see BSB being nice and loving to her :)

"BSB being nice and loving to her "
It's, like, I see these words in front of me, and my grasp of English is pretty good . . . but I don't understand! :D Did you say BSB and LSY are nice and loving?? What does this mean?? You mean, in Let's Get Married, she doesn't try to blow up his house while he was lying in a comatose state?? :D
"but on something sound like “possum” or “bosum”!!"
Yes, her . . . hair has great volume. ;)
It's a flattering dress and if you have it, why not? :)

Hehe...it is not big, not huge, not gigantic!! Indeed, the correct word to describe the "possum" or "bosum" is "great volume" i.e voluptuous!! ^____________^

@Agent Darwin
Not trying to be forward, but are you referring to the delicate b______s on her front?

I am starring at the possum decorating herself with eyecatching beads. The beads radiate rays of voluptious light that confuse my senses...so Sofia, what should I do? Grab it!!

FINALLY!!! The news I've been waiting for!!!
About PHS, she looks so kind enough (any other fotos???) to be the good-hearted yet unfortunate Queen Inhyeon...
About LSY...unfortunately, I've never seen nor watched yet A'sT...but I hope she can match - or even outshine - Kim Hye-soo's depiction of about 7 years ago...
Oh, and LSY will be the 8th Jang Hui-bin to (at least) portray this femme fatale...
(others include Jeon In-hwa (of YeoinCheonha and King & I) & Jeong Seon-gyeong (of Empress Myeongseong; she was Yeongbodang Lee)
Now the one I'll await next is if there will be someone who will be casted as the 3rd Queen Consort (Queen Inwon) & Gyeongjong (the previous one at "Jang Hui-bin" was cute...)
@5...
wow, nice comparison...Jang as Anne Boleyn, Inhyeon as Catherine of Aragon, Sukjong as Henry VIII.
@8...
So LSY was So-ok (the girl BYJ got impregnated, and had a mysterious gaze (while patting her preggy belly) just as the last part of the credits finished rolling)??
