Park Si Hoo to meet Moon Geun Young in “Cheongdam Alice”
Actor Park Si Hoo is expected to make his comeback in the new SBS weekend drama “Cheongdam Alice”.*
According to multiple news reports on August 14, Park Si Hoo is seriously considering starring as the hero in “Cheongdam Alice” (scriptwriters Kim Jin Hee & Kim Jee Woon, Producer/Director Cho Soo Won).
An official of Park Si Hoo’s entertainment agency commented on this story: “Park Si Hoo is considering ‘Cheongdam Alice’. In addition, there are other works under discussion. He has to plan his Filmography carefully and details will be announced soon.”
The drama “Cheongdam Alice” is based on the novel “Cheongdam Oh Duri”. Park Si Hoo plays Cha Seung Ho, the world’s youngest chairman of a luxury goods distribution company (who is suffering from a traumatic past relationship) and Moon Geun Young plays Han Se Kyung, a Cinderella character [who sells fake brand names - ED: this is from another source.] “Cheongdam Alice” dramatizes the unexpected love between the two in a world dominated by wealth and explores the true meaning of marriage.
This is Park Si Hoo’s first drama after his very successful MBC “Queen of Reversals” and KBS2 “The Princess’s Man” and also Moon Geun Young’s much-anticipated return to TV after a break of two years.
Meanwhile, this drama “Cheongdam Alice” is scheduled to follow “Five Fingers” on SBS and will be broadcast in December.
* Cheongdam-dong is a ward of Gangnam-gu in Seoul, South Korea. It is referred to as “Fashion and Art Street” of Gangnam which has 50 shops for imported foreign brands, local fashion designers’ shops, and 30 galleries near the upscale Galleria Department Store in Apgujeong-dong towards Cheongdam Park. The street is also called “Rodeo Street” (a reference to Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills, California) or “Yuppie Street” since a lot of professionals who are in their 30′s are major customers of the shops which sell expensive clothes.

Alice as in “Alice in Wonderland”, we think.
