Dara Cast in Another Web Drama with Winner's Kang Seung Yoon


Finally. So many projects for Sandara. She totally deserves this. The drama is originally a webtoon titled, "We Broke Up". Her role in this one is the total opposite of her previous one in Dr. Ian. Whereas Lee So Dam is timid and can sometimes be a pushover, Noh Woori is very assertive of her life and is not afraid to reach for her dreams. Woori is a very strong character and can become unlikeable at times so I'm really curious as to how Dara will handle this. I can't wait to see the drama!

DARA and KANG SEUNG YOON to Play Lead Roles in Web Series “We’ve Broken Up”



[엑스포츠뉴스=정희서 기자] DARA, a member of 2NE1, and KANG SEUNG YOON of WINNER have been cast as leads in a Web series.

The Web series entitled “We’ve Broken Up” is based on a popular Web cartoon of the same title on Naver, a Korean portal website. The series features college sweethearts who broke up but have to live in a house together, while depicting uncertainties faced by many young people these days.

DARA is to play the role of Noh Woori, a job-seeker and alpha woman, who has to live in the same house with her ex-boyfriend. And KANG SEUNG YOON has been cast to play Ji Won-young, a vocalist of an indie band who does late-night part-time work for his band and music.

DARA has recently played a lead role in another Web series “Doctor Ian” and her acting has been well-received by the public. KANG SEUNG YOON also starred in MBC’s sitcom “High Kick, Short-Legged Counterattack” in 2012, where he demonstrated his potential as an actor.

Along with DARA and KANG SEUNG YOON, models who belong to YG K-Plus are also to appear in the series. Kang Seung-hyun, a world-class top model, will play the role of a beautiful and insightful director at a top-notch record label. And Jang Ki-yong has been cast to play Seo Hyun-woo, a warm-hearted man who likes Woori.

“This Web series is not just a simple love story,” said a production official. “It also addresses the difficulties faced by young people these days, including unemployment. We’ll do our best to produce a quality Web series now that this series is drawing a lot of attention and boasts the best possible production crew and cast.”

The Web series “We’ve Broken Up” is jointly planned and produced by YG K-Plus, CJ E&M Digital Studio and Story Plant, and will be jointly directed by Kim Yong-wan, who directed “Love Cells,” a popular Web series with more than 1 million views. The filming of the series will start this month and the show will be made available at the beginning of June.

Dara replied to me on Twitter! Life goal achieved!

Dara held a Q&A for Dr. Ian last April 4, 2015. She answered 21 questions in total and I was one of the few lucky people who got picked. In fact, I was the first international fan she replied to after talking to the Korean blackjacks. I was so shocked when I saw her tweet to me! I did feel my heart jump. Seriously. That day will forever be remembered and cherished. And.. bragged. Hahaha! Thank you for all the congratulations. You guys are awesome!
