120921 Orange Caramel Mortified over Graduation Pictures at Open Studio



Orange Caramel came to Mnet’s Wide Entertainment News Open Studio on September 20, but they probably wished they didn’t.

“Like now,” said Nana, “When we’re walking, we usually hit the staff members or the other singers around us.”

They said their most embarrassing outfit was probably the Bruce Lee yellow tracksuit during Shanghai Romancepromotions.

Orange Caramel then asked its CEO for three days worth of vacation and for the outfits to get toned down just a bit.

120920 After School U-ee is Confirmed to Star in “Jeon Woo Chi

Written By Regina Kim on Thursday, September 20, 2012 | 10:36 PM



The popular movie ‘Jeon Woo Chi’ will be made into a drama.

After much speculation the lead actors have been confirmed. As revealed last month U-ie received an offer to star in this promising drama. It has now been officially confirmed that U-ie will star in this drama as the lead female. Noted actor and singer Cha Tae-Hyun has been cast in the lead male role.

This story is based on a fantasy novel/folktale, so it’s not necessary an adaptation of the 2009 film bearing the same name. Same source material, similar aspects, but a different angle.

For those of you unfamiliar with the film, the plot revolves around a Taoist wizard (dosa) named Jeon Woo-chi who has been locked in a magic scroll for 500 years. Then the seal is broken and the impish Woo Chi is released into the modern world, where he fights goblins and monsters. And wreaks a little havoc of his own.

The drama sounds like it’s hewing closer to the original story, where Jeon Woo-chi is an inhabitant of Yuldo, a (fictional) ideal nation established by righteous bandit and Robin Hood, Hong Gil-dong. Woo-chi is a dosa who initially gains his powers by swallowing a gumiho fox bead. He travels to Joseon on a revenge mission, but when he sees the plight of the people there suffering under tyranny and famine, he develops into a hero. Sweet.

It’ll be a fusion sageuk, so no time-traveling or modern-day Seoul. Woo-chi’s character is trouble-making and mischievous, and the producers have stated their intention to include all kinds of colorful characters from the “bottom” of Joseon society: con artists, bandits, gisaengs, and more.

Attached are PD Kang Il-soo of Kingdom of the Wind and Emperor of the Sea; writer is Jo Myung-joo of King Gwanggaeto — so, lots of sageuk experience up in here. In any case, sounds like an interesting project with a fresh premise.

Jeon Woo Chi will start to air in November on KBS 2TV.
