Guest dadedum Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 starring Yutaka Takenouchi, Choi Ji Wooupdated 3/28 Drama: RONDO 輪舞曲 Station: TBS (Japan) Date: Starts on January 15, 2006 (Sundays at 9pm timeslot) Official Website: http://www.tbs.co.jp/rondo2006/ Cast: Takenouchi Yutaka, Choi Ji Woo, Hayami Mokomichi, Ichikawa Yui, Shin Hyun Joon, Lee Jung Hyun CHARACTER MAP PLOT SUMMARY: *credit to SuddenDrama from jdorama.com* Yutaka Takenouchi is Nishijima Sho, a henchman for Kazuma Ryuichiro, the president of a successful corporation but also, unknown to the public, a mafia boss! However, what the mafia group doesn't know is that Nishijima Sho is actually undercover police detective Kaneyama Takumi. He enters the underworld (the mafia) under the orders of his boss, Detective Isaki Yoshihiko and also because his father was killed in South Korea, which he believes was the work of the mafia. One day, Sho and his friend go to a bar and find a Korean woman being harrassed. He helps her out. The woman is Choi Yoo-na (Choi Ji-woo), a woman who comes to Japan with her sister in search of their father, who went to Japan and never came back. Yoo-na also seems to draw the unwanted attention of Kim Young-jae, a Korean underboss of Kazuma's mafia group summoned to Japan from Korea for "work." Also in the scene are Kazuma Ryugo (Mokomichi Hayami), Ryuichiro's son who is set to inherit the corporation (and the mafia), Kazuma Kotomi (Yui Ichikawa), Ryuichiro's daughter who likes Sho (but the love is unrequited), and his Korean aide/secretary for business (and mafia) affairs, Song Gyu-hwan.

Choi Ji-woo to Co-Star with Takenouchi Yutaka - July 4, 2005 Actress Choi Ji-woo and Japanese star Takenouchi Yutaka will co-star in a television drama that will air on TBS in Japan beginning next January, according to Japanese sports dailies on July 4. The drama will be filmed in both Korea and Japan for about four months starting this coming November. Sankei Sports quoted TBS producer Ueda Hiroki as saying, “In the story, Choi and Takenouchi will portray love that transcends national boundaries.” He also said Choi will act in Korean first and gradually switch to Japanese, and that her character’s efforts to overcome the language barrier would be interesting to watch. Ueda continued, “Korean television dramas are unrivaled. So this drama aims to appeal not only to hallyu fans but young viewers from both Korea and Japan by presenting them with a unique story different from typical hallyu dramas. It will also send a message of friendship between the two countries.” The daily reported that Choi, known as the “queen of tears,” is likely to act out various crying scenes in the drama as well. Meanwhile, Sports Nippon wrote that Choi became a fan of Takenouchi after watching the movie “Between Calm and Passion,” in which he stars, in 2001. Choi said she is honored to have this opportunity to co-star alongside the notable Japanese actor. The newspaper also quoted Takenouchi as saying that he was “glad to be part of a challenging production that will be difficult to accomplish.” Source: http://english.kbs.co.kr/entertainment/new...6151_11858.html ______________________________________________________________________________ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Korean actress CHOI JI WOO, will play the role of woman who has her secret, and is involving a Japanese detective (Takenouchi ) in. She will throw away a catch phrase of” A queen of tear “this time and challenge a character which is a stubborn and mischievous. She said, “ I would like to perform human strength, kindness, and warmth which crosses the difference of language, nation. This is a love story between Korean woman and Japanese detective backed complex event. I am looking forward to this drama. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest WitchGoddess Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 Oh wow Lee Junghyun will act with her? This so reminds me of Beautiful Days now. I loved that drama. Really anticipating it now. I bet this is going to be big. Hey it's Hayami Mokomichi the guy from Gokusen 2, never knew he was in Densha Otoko though. He's really risen fast to be filming with Choi Jiwoo, hehe another reason to watch this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
