yoona-lee-bum-soo.png

Now this is some interesting casting news! Actor Lee Bum Soo and Girls’ Generation‘s YoonA are in talks to lead a new KBS drama “Prime Minister and I.”

“Prime Minister and I ,” to be written by Kim Eun Hee,  is described as the Korean version of the famous story “Sound of Music.” It will follow the love story between a prime minister and a governess who in the past gave up her dream to become a musical actress.

This drama is being produced by SM C&C, the subsidiary of YoonA’s agency SM Entertainment, which might explains YoonA’s possible casting. 

Lee Bum Soo’s reps have stated that the actor is merely reviewing the role; nothing has been decided yet. The actor is currently busy filming the movie “God’s Trick.”

Lee Bum Soo was born in 1970 and YoonA in 1990, meaning there is 20-year age gap between them if the casting happens. While the original “Sound of Music” story also depicts a large age-gap, what do you think guys? Too much? Or does age not matter as long as there is chemistry?

Lee Bum Soo and Yoona are positively reviewing new KBS2 Drama Prime Minister and I
Drama_PMandI_bc1.jpg

Lee Bum Soo and Yoona are in talks as leads for the newest Mondays-Tuesdays KBS2 Drama “Prime Minister and I“, Korean version of The Sound of Music. Some news reported that Lee Bum Soo has verbally accepted the offer. He will be portraying a cool & charismatic Prime Minister who is in his 40s.

If Yoona accepts the offer, she’ll be playing as the private tutor who works at the Prime Minister’s House, probably as a private tutor for the Prime Minister’s children.

I honestly can’t imagine the chemistry between them, especially with their 20 years gap; but I will reserve my judgement until I see their on-screen chemistry.

This drama will be penned by scriptwriters Yoon Eun Kyung (Take Care of the Young Lady) and  Kim Eun Hee (Ghost, Sign). It premieres after The Future Choice, so will likely to broadcast its first episode in December 2013.

Lee Beom Soo (IRIS 2) and Yoona (Love Rain) are reportedly being offered the lead roles in KBS’ new drama The Prime Minister and I.

Ehhh!?

The drama is based on the musical “The Sound of Music” where it follows a charismatic prime minister (Lee Beom Soo) and the female tutor (Yoona) who enters his household. (I don’t remember Christopher Plummer being all too charismatic in the film, but he sure was a looker. Anyways…) I wonder if this means they will sing in the drama, because that would be kind of awesome.

The two actors are reportedly “carefully considering the role” and nothing is definite yet. What’s really attracting a lot of attention is the age difference between them – he’s 43, and she’s 23. (1970 to 1990. A round 20 years.) To put it into some perspective he’s old enough to be her father, and she could be closer in age to her pupil (assuming that she’ll be tutoring Lee’s daughter). In addition, the age gap between Christopher Plummer and Julie Andrews was six years.

The age gap here is quite glaring for me, because no matter how charming and lively Lee Beom Soo is, Yoona looks so much like a kid next to him. She’s not a terrible actress out of all the idols-turned-actors out there, but Love Rain left such a bitter taste in my mouth. She had some chemistry with Jang Geun Suk, but I think he was the one who tried harder. Yoona is great at being feisty and perky, but it might come off as quite shallow when she’s going up against the likes of Lee Beom Soo’s talent.

Things might change with the casting, though both are strong candidates for the role. The drama is set to air in December after Mi Rae’s Choice. Man… that drama didn’t even air yet and we’re already planning the next batch of dramas!

LEE BUM SOO AND YOONA ARE CONSIDERING “SOUND OF MUSIC” REMAKE, “PRIME MINISTER AND I”

Posted by Clockwatcher

Hmm.

Hmm. Hmm.

Hmm.

To be fair, I’ve never seen YoonA in anything so there’s that. But doesn’t this news just make you go “Hmm?”

SNSD’s YoonA has been offered the lead in the upcoming drama Prime Minister and I which is based onThe Sound Of Music. The title makes me think of The King and I. It appears to be written by Kim Eun Hee and Yoon Eun Kyung of Winter Sonata and My Fair Lady fame.

If accepted, YoonA will play the role of a private tutor who works for the prime minister who might be played by Lee Bum Soo. Both are positively reviewing their offers. Some reports state that Lee Bum Soo has already confirmed his appearance.

With a twenty-year age difference, one wonders why the tutor couldn’t be a woman in her thirties. And with an actor like Lee Bum Soo, why not an actress with more experience? But to be fair – about the age difference – while Christopher Plummer isn’t significantly older than Julie Andrews, I think it’s fair to say that Captain von Trapp (with his 16-going-on-17 year-old child) is significantly older that Maria the nun-wannabe.

With The Suspicious Housekeeper and now this, could we be moving away from ghosts to dramas about older men and their governesses?

Lee Bum Soo was last seen in Iris 2 while YoonA’s last drama was Love Rain.

This Prime Minister and I is scheduled to air in December after The Future Choice on KBS 2.

Well i love Lee Bum Soo,loved him in Giant and Iris 2(wanted him to win)but i think Yoona is not the best choice here...the age gap it's quite visible,it would been much more good if a older actress took the role...but oh well,since this drama it's from SM i doubt they will cut her off...It's funny that se always picks dramas with older leading male

Yoona offered lead role on KBS drama


photo347251.jpg

Yoona of K-pop group Girls' Generation may expand her acting resume by taking the lead role in a new TV drama on KBS, slated to begin in December, according to yesterday's local media reports.

Tentatively titled "The Prime Minister and I", the series is being called a Korean "Sound of Music", depicting a young governess who comes to the prime minister's house to work.

If Yoona accepts the offer, she will be playing the governess. The prime minister will reportedly be played by Lee Beom-soo of KBS drama "IRIS 2".

Due to the age gap between the two lead characters, many industry observers are curious about how producers will handle this story. Lee was born in 1970 while Yoona was born in 1990. 

However, Yoona's agency, SM Entertainment, is reportedly being cautious about commenting on the offer.

"Although it is true that Yoona was offered the role, nothing has been confirmed yet", said an official at the agency, according to local reports.

"We need to conclusively check Yoona's personal arrangements, as well as the schedule for Girls' Generation, before making a decision".

Twent years is a big age gap, especially in a culture that seems as obsessed with age as Korea. In a society where women are talked about as "aging" or "getting older"  when they're approaching thirty this series is taking a risk with a gap of this size. It can work though, if the actors gel and more importantly if the writers do a good job. A romantic relationship between a mature woman in her early twenties and a youthfully-minded man in his early 40s is feasible, but it is definitely a challenge to stereotypes and to the skill of everyone involved in defeating those preconceptions.

@minminsarangI'm sorry that I created this thread too early. I thought it would be okay since other thread also started early. But I know I should've just sticked with the rules..Again, I apologize on my action and if this caused inconvenience on Soompi. I'll make sure this won't happen again in the future.Thanks!
