Park Yoochun, Kim Junsu, Kim Jaejoong. The trio of JYJ, who split from TVXQ to form a new popular group, have all starred in domestic dramas.
After Park Yoochun wrapped up filming for ‘Miss Ripley (MBC) that began in May and ended in July, Kim Junsu made a short but strong appearance in the popular drama ‘Scent of a Woman (SBS). And now, Kim Jaejoong is playing the role of Department Head Cha Mu Won in ‘Protect the Boss (SBS) and stealing the hearts of drama viewers.
Though its normal to see idols taking on a side job as actors, JYJs situation is quite different. While other singers appear on music and variety programs while taking on roles in dramas, JYJ can only be seen in dramas.
The forerunner out of the trio who found a way to relieve his stress of being unable to appear on music programs through drama appearance is Park Yoochun, as many already know. Last August till November, he appeared in the fusion historical drama ‘SungKyunKwan Scandal (KBS) and made his mark as an actor who is sought after by drama producers.
Kim Junsu appeared in ‘Scent of a Woman as Asias top Hallyu singer ‘Junsu, who Lee Yeon Jae (Kim Seon Ah) wanted to see before she died. ‘You are so Beautiful, the OST that Kim Junsu performed live during the drama, drives into the viewers ears whenever an emotional scene takes place between the two leading roles (Kim Seon Ah, Lee Dong Wook).
Kim Jaejoong is currently being loved as the creator of the love triangle between him, No Eun Seol (Choi Kang Hee) and Cha Ji Hun (Ji Sung) in the drama ‘Protect the Boss. Critics have stated that though his acting was a little awkward at the beginning, he is improving as the episodes progress.
CEO Baek Chang Joo of C-JeS Entertainment stated, As Junsu has already made his mark in the musical industry, he doesnt want to take on dramas just yet. But Jaejoong and Yoochun will continue to appear in dramas.
The trio have had restrictions placed on their broadcasted appearances since creating JYJ after leaving TVXQ and SM Entertainment in July, 2009. It has been known that SM has been calling for such restrictions as they believe that JYJ entered a dual contract with C-JeS, the focal point of SMs lawsuit against JYJ. Though the Courts dismissed SMs exclusive contract suspension injunction against JYJ and C-JeS in February and laid down the verdict that SM must not interfere with JYJs independent activities, JYJ have bene unable to appear on the music programs of Koreas three major broadcasting companies.
Board of directors member Park Jin Hyung of AStory, the production company of ‘Protect the Boss and ‘Scent of a Woman, stated, Kim Jaejoong was chosen as the first person to approach for the role of Cha Mu Won, and we deemed that Kim Junsu was the appropriate person to take on the role of a Hallyu star in the drama, as well as to sing the OST, and SMs influence doesnt reach the drama industry, unlike in the entertainment industry, so we were able to cast JYJ in their respective roles without any problems. SBS PD Nam Tae Jin of ‘Scent of a Woman stated, No interferences took place in the casting of JYJ.
