Yoochun headlines action drama Three Days
by girlfriday
Whoooo, it’s two good bits of news all rolled into one. I had wondered what happened to the 24-esque condensed-time action thriller drama Three Days, which had sounded like the best new drama in the upcoming crop, but missed its window on SBS’s fall schedule as originally planned. Never fear, because it’s back on the slate for a February 2014 broadcast, and has secured Yoochun (I Miss You) as its lead.
The new drama from writer Kim Eun-hee of Ghost and Sign and PD Shin Kyung-soo of Tree With Deep Roots touts itself as the Korean 24, which isn’t an essential comparison now that Two Weeks has happened and the condensed-time thriller isn’t so foreign a concept. Perhaps Two Weeks had something to do with Three Days wanting a little distance from such a similar drama (in format, not content), or perhaps they just needed more pre-production time.
The action thriller will naturally span the course of three days, and centers around the president and the Blue House secret service. Yoochun will star as the president’s bodyguard, an elite agent who is fastidious when it comes to his job. On a trip to the presidential villa, three mysterious gunshots will herald the president’s sudden disappearance, and the drama will follow the agents’ harrowing chase to recover him.
Sohn Hyun-joo, Jang Hyun-sung
Though Yoochun is the only one confirmed as of now, Sohn Hyun-joo (Covertly, Grandly) is being courted to play the kidnapped president. OMG. Yes, please. He’s so good. His reps say he’s considering it among many other projects so we’ll have to wait and see, but one thing we can glean from them trying to cast him is that the president will play a big role in the drama and not just be the princess you rescue at the end. Jang Hyun-sung (Who Are You) is being courted as well, to play the senior secret service agent and Yoochun’s boss.
Well, I’m excited. It’s obviously a show that’s going to be compared to Two Weeks for its structure, but while that drama was about the everyman fugitive, this is clearly being set up to be a more Jack Bauer-esque super-agent thriller. Maybe with 36 extra hours in this story, Yoochun can squeeze in a few normal human things, like food and bathroom breaks, which never seemed to fit into Jack Bauer’s day. I still prefer Yoochun in comedic and fusion roles, but this could certainly be the drama to tip the scales for me, since badass action hero is pretty up there on my highly scientific scale of swooniness.
Three Days is planning to pre-produce half of its 20-episode run, which explains the early casting. It’s preparing for a February broadcast on SBS.

Oooh Yoochun in a non-wtf-ish melodrama.
Then those ahjusshis as co-stars. (I bet the President is the Real Baddie here.)
Then 24-like format with extra hours to eat (angsty ramen) and take a bath (abs alert!)
AND it's pre-produced. :)
Wow. Such amazed. Such happy!

Ha! Scale of Swooniness. Why do I feel like it's going to be your theme of this year's year-end review? ;)
But to go back on topic, this sounds really good. I still remember those days where people practically forced me to watch SKKS because I swore it off because I didn't like YooChun. So happy to be proven wrong ^^

Out of curiosity, where do you guys rank him as an actor? I personally think he's pretty darn lucky that he achieved so much fame as an idol. The news articles didn't even hide the fact that the foreign investors started calling SBS once they found out he was going to be cast.

I think he is pretty good, or at least fine as an actor. He may be as lucky as other idols, but he is better than most of them, if not all. Idols work their ass off too though, I don't think it is pure luck.

November 3, 2013 at 8:47 PM
Lucky in the sense that he's famous for being part of a musical group and that fame is what's essentially underwriting his career as an actor.

Not certainly that essential.many idols from big groups are acting now as well. Not to mention he has not been that active for some years compared to other idols. I think his power mostly comes from his dramas. In the full news they said, his popularity came mostly from Rooftop Prince and I Miss You, they did not mention anything about him being in a group.

Yoochun was part of TVXQ who is probably the most successful foreign idol group in Japan. JYJ is still insanely popular, so I wouldn't say most of his popularity comes from dramas.

Yup, admit he may not be the best actor but I was brought into kdramaland bcos of watching him in Rooftop Prince (nope, I was not aware of his TVXQ prior to that) and since then I started my k-craze with no return. So even if is bias, I am glad that he is coming back soon to dramaland this soon!

He's a solid actor. Maybe not the best of his generation, but definitely good enough to hold his own without the idol fame tag qualifying everything he does.
He's had luck in his career but I think it's more luck about picking interesting projects than luck from being previously famous (which has not helped other idols one whit when they don't have the acting ability to capitalize on their platform). He picks a wide range of interesting characters and then does a good job immersing himself in the roles, so that even when the dramas themselves are not good (Miss Ripley, I Miss You), he has something to do with the material.

Preach, Javabeans! As a fan of Yoochun since SKKS, I can see that he has improved a lot since 2010. He did indeed get the one of the lead roles in SKK because of his Hallyu idol status-- but that's show biz. But since then, he has proven in following projects that he is a good actor and is serious about honing his craft.
In every Yoochun article, I am tired of people questioning his ability and constantly insinuating that he's only getting these big roles because of his huge fanbase in Asia, especially in Japan. But he and his members worked their asses off in Japan starting at the bottom before achieving success after quite a few years.
So what if he's scoring these roles, at least he's good.

i also believe he's a solid actor. If i can compare it to another idol, he is like Eric, though not great actors but you can feel their depth in acting. They have complete understanding of their roles. I think that's what separate them from other idol turned actors.

Nice comparison. They even have the same pretty yet masculine vibe. I would love it if people could forget or at least not harp on the fact that Yoochun's an idol, like they do for Eric.

I agree with Javabeans.
Since I don't listen to either JYJ or TVXQ, I went into watching a show with him not expecting much because he was an idol and so famous (I don't listen to either group but I am aware of their large amounts of loyal-sometimes scary- fans). But, I was pleasantly surprised by him and think he is really good and a solid performer.
Actually, I even think he fits better as an actor. He has more charm on the screen while acting than from what I've seen of him in music videos and he is pretty swoony, too! And yeah, picking interesting projects helps as well. He creates range for himself and that helps to not box him in or get type cast. Which is to say, he doesn't get boring. So, while he may not be on my list of favorites, I like him a lot!

Because he is in one of the most famous idol groups in the East Asian region, starting from years ago til now. So you could say he stands out for the instant power he brings for foreign investors and audience numbers etc.
And then as previous commenters have mentioned he is decent at acting and can carry his lines unlike many, MANY other idol actors.

He is good. And he got a certain je ne sais quoi factor. I know next to nothing about Kpop and my first encounter with Yoochun was in, I think, I Miss You. I hated the grown-up part of this drama with a vengance but Mickey had that something extra, that made me still watch the show. He's got a maturity, that transports via the screen, that I just love. Later I realized, that when I watch a drama with him in it I'm drawn to his performance. No idea why, because he still has room to grow, but he is like a magnet on screen to me.
He picked the perfect new projects (Sea Fog and Three Days) to prove, that he is more than an idol dabbling in acting. I wish him all the best and keep my fingers crossed, that this cast will be finalized. Something really to look forward to!

For me this is the best part of the news: 10 eps pre-production!!!
It's the chance that some of the live-shooting craziness is slowed down for the whole crew of the drama. Who am I kidding?! .... probably the requirements and needs of this action drama forces the per-production. Which would mean that the same intense workload as usual is necessary, but over a longer periode of time than normally needed for a 20 ep drama. Please correct me if I am wrong!
I just hope that something change for the better in k-drama production. I love them some much, but sometimes I feel bad and guilty watching them and knowing the bad conditions. There are times were you can actually see the exhaustion of actors. I read same actors are treated with IV on a regular basis just to be able to finish a drama. It's crazy... I wonder how the behind-the-scenes staff is coping with the workload.

Hmm... Recently, action dramas haven't fared very well - Two weeks, IRIS 2 and Incarnation of money (being a weekender) did poorly ratings wise. Or am I missing a highly rated action drama in recent times?
Anyway, it seems interesting, although I didn't love Two weeks. Hopefully this one's better. Yoochun's really busy with his movie coming up and now a drama. Maybe after this, he's going to enlist because as far as I know he's an 86'er. And in 2014, I'm sure some of the 87'ers are going to gear up for MS.
Its that time of the year again where we get casting news for the winter/spring season. Time flies! I swear it feels like yesterday when GFB and JOJ were announced amongst many others!

the first time saw the new thread in soompi, I was so surprise and happy to hear yochun will back soon to kdramaland tough not sure yet If I'll wacth it but this is the list that make me will watch this drama for sure.
1st : it's korean version of american show 24. 2nd : written by Kim Eun-hee, writer of Ghost and Sign). 3rd : The PD is Shin Kyung-soo of Tree With Deep Roots. 4th : the team is the same team which produced That Winter The Wind Blows!
OMG, that four points are truly DAEBAK!!!
Now, cant wait to see point 5th : The lead female. OMG... hope Kdramaland God can give us the talented and experienced actress, actually I dont minf if a young one as long as she is talented!
Who will be good for lead female? Lee Si Young? Jung Eun Ji? I cant remember much name right now...

Interesting. TBH, I tend to get quite excited for every PYC drama casting news, not because I'm a fan of his acting, more like my interest is piqued by the plot synopsis of the drama he chooses (SKKS, MIss Ripley, Rooftop Prince and even I Miss You). BUT, I always end up getting frustrated with how the story progresses and eventually haven't finished a single drama of his (nope, not even SKKS). I don't know why scriptwriters bail out on those potential storylines.
Well hopefully, this will be the first PYC drama that I'd be able to watch from start to finish. I haven't seen much of his acting but I can tell he's improving every project. Crossing my fingers on this one since Kim Eun Hee really kept me on the edge of my seat with Sign and Ghost.

I completely know what you mean, some of his dramas just get worse with each episode, in particular I Miss You. I had such high hopes for that one after the early episodes with great child actors and actresses.
Hopefully Kim Eun Hee will deliver with Three Days.
On another note I love how the format of the drama instantly requires the drama title to be a time period. Haha :)

Not sure WHY you think so or WHERE you get this "conclusion" from? The drama is not even out yet! And looking at the names of the scriptwriter, PD and potential co-stars, it will definitly garner lots of attention (whether you like it or not it's already top of the HOT words and search engines).
After 2 years, Yuchun has chosen to do this drama and based on his choices of roles/production so far in his short drama career, he always managed to surprise me with the variety he picks. None of the roles he did so far are similar and he obviously doesn't pick based on whether the drama will get high ratings or not (he mentioned in his interviews previously that he chooses scripts/roles based on gut feel).
Can't wait to see him again on the small screen!

SKKS did not compete with only Giant but also DongYi, which also got the highest rating in that time slot. Though SKKS was not ranked first in term of rating, the rating itself wasn't that bad. And it was really a huge hit.
Most of audiences were either watched the reruns or watched it online. From my first hand experience, the number of torrent downloads (yeah,.. it's illegal lol) were high and highest among the 3 competing dramas, in Korean torrent websites.
And SKKS DC Gall was populated with discussions and moving in high speed lol

Since when did the amount of illegal downloading determine a drama's success and whether it's a hit or not?
You are correct, Dong Yi got the highest rating during that time-slot (it aired a couple months earlier than the other 2) but in the end Giant hit the national drama status at 40%, Dong Yi's highest eps rating was around 32% and SKKS at 14%.
Ratings does not always determine the quality of a drama but it this case Giant was the best out of the 3, both in quality and ratings.

Being popular online doesn't contribute to the ratings. Song Joong Ki's break out performance was in Tree With Deep Roots and he wasn't a lead in it. Yoo Ah-In got more recognition but he has been acting (dramas/movies) for years before SKKS. Yoo Chun was brand new so he benefit most from it.

Anyone know if Yoochun has done another action role before? And really, how well he did it if he has done one?
This type of drama seems right down my alley, but if he's like Seung Gi at action.... *shudder*

This sounds good! I like high-suspense things. I've never watched 24, though so this will be kind of shiny and new for me. I watched Two Weeks and loved it though.
I am curious of how the producers will cover three days in 20 episodes. It also may not have a love-line with such a tight deadline so that's probably something to be excited about, too, for many. Since many K-dramas involve romance, I find it a particular achievement if they can produce an interesting show without one. I love a good romance but it's not always needed (though oddly enough there are also cases where I feel it kinda is, LOL).

What i like about Yoochun is he improve in every drama he stars in. Compare his acting in SKKS to his acting in Missing You and you can definitely see the big improvement in his acting. And i like that he chooses diverse drama to star in, 1st, SKKS which is like a Joseon F4, it's under historical romance drama. 2nd is Miss Ripley which has a dark theme then 3rd he goes to Rom-Com fusion drama Rooftop Prince then 4th with Missing You which is a melodrama. And now he goes action drama, he chooses diff. genre of drama to star in. He isn't the type of actor or idol-actor that is type-casted in a certain type of drama or role in a drama.
Since i love 'Two Weeks' i will make sure to watch this, adding that the writer also has a good resume so definitely in.. I'll be anticipating for this, i just hope it won't disappoint.

agree with u ... he choose different genre .. He likes a challenge, no matter if it will make people be surprised and wonder why he took the role, and he is the one who is always willing to learn to give the best in his role.
that's Park Yuchun.

nteresting to read the comments here,
okay .. I also want to comment, Yoochun .. I know him through Miss.Ripleys, and I fell in love with that brought songyoohyun, how he's changed role of the cheerful person into a cool, after that I saw SKKS, which makes it increasingly interested in the way he acted ... in Rooftop Prince and I miss You, reinforces his acting. He proved to everyone that he isn't the only Idol who only rely on fame as Idol but also his acting skills which are increasingly better. ( he got the award in every drama that he starred, was also one of the proof ).
He always try to give his best that he can do in many things ( as singer or actor or else)
for this time, he choose different genre again ... i cant wait to see his acting in this drama.. besides his movie.

LOL, if only you follow his music resume too, in these past 10 years he probably change his hairstyle like 100 times already..
what you saw in his drama are the "most ordinary" hairstyle he ever had. he's the guinea pig of his hairstylish..
but i dig his "i miss u" hairstyle more, he looks hot like that gyahaha

I think I'm more excited about Jang Hyun-sung. I've admired him ever since Vampire Prosecutor where he played the Big Bad. He was so cool in that. I like Yoochun, but I've never been interested in any drama he's played in. More for the story, than because of him. Still, looking forward to this. Sounds really interesting.

Jang Hyun Sung has really played some jerks, though, lol. I think in everything I've seen of him he's been just an awful person. So, I wonder if he will be in this or if he'll actually be a good guy. I somehow doubt it, hahaha.

I remember him playing a cute ajusshi in "Big" (Kyung-joon’s uncle) who is secretly in love with Da-ran's mum and kept going back to see if the mum recognize him (esp the flashback) lol. Thou I really shiver when he's in his role in VP Big Bad and Who are you.

have no fear my lass! yuchun will not let you down! i can't wait for this drama cause i love this type of drama and i love yuchun! he is a natural born actor with a million faces to go with his roles.
"I still prefer Yoochun in comedic and fusion roles, but this could certainly be the drama to tip the scales for me, since badass action hero is pretty up there on my highly scientific scale of swooniness."
