Uee And Sung Joon Ready To Commit To 'True Romance'

The drama formerly titled "Chaebol's Daughter" has a new title and two new actors in its leading roles.

The SBS drama is now called "True Romance" and the roles formerly being considered by Moon Geun Young and Park Seo Joon are now likely to be played by After School's Uee and actor Sung Joon.

According to a recent article in the Korean media outlet Newsen, Park Hyung Sik and Sung Joon have already confirmed their participation in the drama. But a drama also needs actresses. Uee, last seen in "Fool's Love" and actress Lim Ji Yeon, who starred in the film "Obsessed" are said to be discussing the final details concerning their appearances in this drama.

If Uee signs on to appear in "True Romance," she will play the role of Jang Yoon Na, a young woman who wants to disguise the fact that she comes from a wealthy family. Unhappy with the idea of marriage as a financial merger, she wants to meet someone who will love her for herself and not her parents' money or connections. So, she takes a part time job in a food market and pretends she is poor.

But what she discovers about the relation between true love and fortune may surprise her.

She meets two men at the market. Park Hyung Sik, last seen in "Persevere Goo Hae Ra," plays Yoo Chang Soo, the heir to the mall where Jang Yoon Na works. Having grown up with everything, he is used to having women be impressed by his wealth. But Jang Yoon Na is not impressed. And he is impressed by the fact that she is not impressed. That makes her all the more interesting to him.

Sung Joon, last seen as the villainous doctor in "Hyde, Jekyll and I," plays Choi Joon Gi, a manager at the market. Since he suffered as a result of his poor background, he is only interested in getting ahead. Falling in love with a well-connected woman might be another way to get ahead if only he did hate the rich so much.

Actress Lim Ji Yeon takes her first drama role in "True Romance" as Jang Yoon Na's new best friend and market co-worker.

Choi Hyung Hun, who directed the critically acclaimed drama "A Word From A Warm Heart" will direct. Ha Myung Hee, who wrote the script for "a Word From A Warm Heart" has written the screenplay for "True Romance."

"True Romance" will follow the 30-episode drama "Heard It Through The Grapevine" when it ends in June.
