Seems like Park Yong-ha will be juggling both his singing and acting careers for the immediate future. Following his hit drama On Air, he took on a film role in a thriller brought to us by the folks behind The Chaser (which is currently wrapping up production) while also putting out a new album and promoting it in Japan with a series of concert tours.
Park kicked off his arena tour (it’s been 2 years and 9 months since his last one) on December 3 at Yokohama Arena to a crowd of 9,000 fans. He performed all songs off his new album “LOVE,” which was released last month, and even showed off some of his acoustic guitar skills. His tour continues on the 20th and 21st in Tokyo, and in Osaka on January 8.
Meanwhile, his thriller film [작전] is aiming for a February 2009 release.

Hmm…nice song but not something I would replay. Good luck!
As far as I am concerned On Air was the best drama of 2008 and PYH did a great job as the struggling visionary newbie director who falls for his eccentric scriptwriter the wonderful SYN. Looking forward to his film and his next drama. Don’t care much for his singing. He has the best dimples in the business.
i always like his voice, he got some singing skills…
i even bought his old album before *blushes* I like his ballads although they’re generally the typical korean ballad….
i miss him so much from On Air! it was a great drama, and i can’t wait to see his next project on tv again.
i’m fallin in love with u in u’r drama “on air”……
