Sunny’s Park Jin-ju joins Operation Proposal

Up and coming young actress Park Jin-ju made an impression as the potty-mouthed girl in last year’s hit film Sunny, and now she’s been cast in Operation Proposal, the Proposal Daisakusen remake miniseries set to air next month. It stars Yoo Seung-ho as the hero who discovers that he’s in love with his friend, played by Park Eun-bin, on her freaking wedding day (hello bad timing) and then gets to go back in time to make it all right. Because we like to reward procrastinators? I mean, I’m a procrastinator too, so maybe I’m not against it, but there are just some behaviors that don’t need any more reinforcement, yunno? I’d pretty much watch this drama for the premise alone, but the stars are a nice draw too.

Park Jin-ju is actually 24, but she fits high school roles pretty seamlessly. She’s been getting a lot of love for her cute and funny character in Sunny who swore like a sailor and blushed like a girl. She had the best lines and one of the quirkiest characters in a whole gang of misfits and weirdos, managing to make a supporting role memorable. She’s also currently guesting on High Kick 3 as one of Jong-seok, Ji-won, and Soo-jung’s classmates (the super nerdy uptight one).

She reportedly swept the producers off their feet in her audition with singing talent as well as her acting, and they created a brand new character for her to play in the drama. The fantasy-melodrama will be helmed by PD Kim Woo-sun (You Are Quite Beautiful) and writing is Yoon Ji-ryun (Boys Before Flowers).

Operation Proposal premieres in February on cable network TV Chosun.

If she was good in singing and acting I wonder why she didn't get scouted for DH2. :)

I was all up and excited til I read "...and writing is Yoon Ji-ryun (Boys Before Flowers)."

I pray this drama doesn't go through another confusing and rushed storyline.

Me too! I thought -
Proposal Daisakusen Korean version: check
casting: check
director: hmmm
writer: nooooo!

I watched the Japanese version years ago and although some parts were quite boring, the ending was lovely. And even if I enjoyed BOF back in '09, looking back, the writing really sucked.

The dialogue wasn't bad...it's the source material that's hard to work with. X)

Who knows what the writer was actually responsible as far as the storyline goes...

The manga and anime had it's major flaws and cringe worthy moments, but the j-dorama was pretty good. So if the j-dorama could work it considering the source material, what is the k-drama Boys Over Flower writer's excuse?

I'm so excited to watch Operation Proposal. I can't believe that Park Jin Ju is so old. She looks so young for her age. I'm not a fan of Boys Over Flowers' writing so I hope that the writer Yoon Ji Ryun has improved since.

I'm quite a fan of the Japanese series.. so I am expecting that somehow the Korean version can outdo the original one. I just hope that they would include the "special episode" in the stroryline, coz if they won't, then the ending will just be an utter disappointment.. :)

Yeah, I freaking hated the Japanese one for the longest time because I didn't like the ending. I was like "I went through ALL of that for this?"

And then I found that they had done the special episode.
