Oh man, these posters for Rooftop Prince crack me up, especially this first one above where our time-traveling Joseon aristocrats (and prince) find themselves stuck in a box (literally) wondering, “Is this real life or the afterlife?” I know, the 21st century’s a bitch, isn’t it? I’m pretty sure my favorite thing about prince Yoochun... More »

The youthful cast of Rooftop Prince poses for a few light-hearted sel-cas featuring a mix of Joseon-era garb and modern-day wear, which in Yoochun‘s case translates into a tracksuit topped with a kingly hat.

The Rooftop posse assembles for a test shoot
by | February 3, 2012 | 88 Comments
Here’s a look at the men of the upcoming fantasy-sageuk-time-traveler drama Rooftop Prince. Yoochun stars as the Joseon-era crown prince and should, in my opinion, always be in sageuks; he just looks so much better in my eyes in that dignified sageuk-wear. Either that or he could just adopt hanbok as his everyday dress, though... More »

Jung Seok-won turns into Rooftop warrior
by | February 1, 2012 | 62 Comments
Here’s another addition to the Rooftop Prince crew: Jung Seok-won (Ojakkyo Brothers, Dr. Champ) has joined the cast as a “soonjung macho” character (tough on the outside, pure on the inside).

Han Ji-min to play princess to Yoochun’s Rooftop Prince
by | January 17, 2012 | 153 Comments
So: Moon Chae-won is out, and Han Ji-min is in for Yoochun‘s new fantasy-sageuk-contemporary fusion drama Rooftop Prince. Interesting choice, but one I can get behind; I can see Han Ji-min easily fitting into a fusion sageuk romance (see: Capital Scandal). She can be perky and adorable, though she’s not strictly confined to bubbly roles... More »

The story sounds like a fantasy fusion piece, unfolding around a Joseon-era crown prince who... More »
