| − | Princess Hours is a drama that starts with the interesting premise; 'What if modern Korea were a constitutional monarchy with a king?', and offers two types of fun; the romance arising between a noble prince and an ordinary girl, and the familiarity of all this happening in modern-day Korea. A perfect boy from a noble bloodline, with good looks and a sense of unpolished beauty has to marry against his will at the age of 17. An ordinary girl from an ordinary family, with a clumsy character, average grades and average looks oversteps the prejudice and barriers surrounding her. The process how they fall in love with each other unfolds with excitement. Shin Chae-kyeong and Lee Shin, because they don't know each other well, go through numerous incidents in which they end up fighting. Chae-kyeong witnesses the scene where Lee Shin proposes to another woman to avoid their arranged marriage and this is how the two become fully aware of each other's feelings. The story evolves from the fact that Chae – kyoung's grandfather was very close to the former monarch, whose wish was for her and Shin to get married. This gives some impetus to the otherwise unrealistic union of the two. As the drama progresses, many other 'fine' men, including Lee Yool, a cousin of the royal family, make their appearance. The story of the two characters, who keep quarreling about structural problems such as the rules of the royal household in the midst of the difficulties of being a prince and of the arranged marriage, will unfold in an interesting way. The show's fun lies in the episodes concerning the status gap that exists between a prince and an ordinary citizen. As more problems of status arise, the uniqueness of being a prince will be more greatly exposed, and doubling the fun of . When the king's illness gets worse, Crown Prince Shin receives an order to get married his arranged marriage partner. Shin realizes that there have never been personal choices available in the life of a Crown Prince, though he's only nineteen. Prince Shin proposes to his girlfriend Min Hyo-rin. Taking it as a joke, Hyo-rin shows her cute smile and takes off to practice for an international ballet competition. Shin doesn't hold onto her but just smiles faintly as she turns away and leaves…. Chae-kyeong has a dad who stays at home as a full time house-husband after his business failed and a mom who works as an insurance consultant. Chae-kyeong's family, which was able to create happiness in the midst of difficult times, suddenly becomes in-laws with the royal household. To Chae-kyeong's parents everything seems much more like a dream, as they see that the arranged marriage grandfather always boasted of become realized. Chae-kyeong cries out loud, not willing to accept the fact that she has to get married at the age of nineteen, but Shin accepts the marriage, not caring about who becomes the queen. To him, she's not a person he'll ever love anyways and she'll just live in the palace like a doll. Meanwhile, Hyo-rin engages herself only in her ballet practice abroad without knowing about her boyfriend's marriage. Yool, second – in – line to the crown and the son of Crown Prince Hyo – yeol, who abandoned his position 15 years ago and left with his wife for England, comes back to his motherland. Upon hearing this news, the king instinctively senses the danger of Crown Prince Shin losing the crown and orders Shin to be careful of Yool. Shin just laughs at the fight over the crown and ignores the king's words. Chae-kyeong enters the Oon-hyeon palace, the palace of the new queen - bride, to get educated as the future queen. Shin, who visits the detached palace, is stunned by the beautiful presence of Chae-kyeong in her ceremonial dress…

| − | ==TRIVIA==
| |
| − | The beginning of 2006 gave TV Stations quite the wake up call, especially the former 'Drama Kingdom', MBC: ratings were dominated by shows targeted at an older audience (Weekend, Daily Dramas), and Miniseries were slowly but surely losing ground and importance in the ratings war. The outcome of one of all time most popular Drama format probably could be seen right from the beginning, when 질투 (Jealousy) brought in the era of Trendy Dramas in 1992, focusing significantly less on storytelling and more concerned with 삼각관계 (love triangles) featuring pretty and famous stars. With 20 something viewers turning TV off entirely or exploring other entertainment venues (films, VOD, Cable or Satellite), the new paradigm of success for Miniseries has become target demographics, sort of like what happens in Hollywood. So the coming of 궁 (Princess Hours) is an interesting, if somewhat worrying trend.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Focusing its attention on the teenager market, using Park So-Hee's popular manhwa of the same name as its foundation, Princess Hours started as a 20 Episode 사전제작 (100% pre-broadcast shoot) production, but both because of various problems MBC experienced at the beginning of the year, which forced Eight Peaks to rush to an early January broadcast instead of the planned March one (which made the 100% pre-broadcast goal impossible), and the rising popularity of the show leading to 4 additional episodes building to a possible (now confirmed) Season 2, derailed the whole project.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The interesting thing is that Hwang In-Roi, a longtime assistant producer on TV who then moved to films and is now back to TV, wasn't supposed to be the PD here initially, only the Executive Producer. He always had a negative image of how TV Dramas developed over the years, after getting out ot the business when production methods started to change in the mid 90s. Hwang, who worked on classics on TV like 수사반장 (The Chief) and directed Chungmuro failures like 꽃을 든 남자 (A Man With Flowers), brought a new concept to the table, with his new production company Eight Peaks: first moving the focus from the stars (which is what gets you overseas contracts) back to the production, investing more money on sets and art direction than expensive big names with dubious acting talent; and then target intelligently a certain type of audience which will respond to the Drama, in this case the teen demographic, as the original manhwa was a big hit with that age group.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Actually at first they even thought about using famous actors, but Hwang was enraged at what he called a lack of co-operation from said stars (there was a rumour BoA was cast in this at the beginning, but it's just that. A rumour): essentially those stars weren't working for the good of the character, but pushing their own image or what their management wanted them to push. That of course brought a lot of advertisement into the Drama, but once Hwang announced he'd go with an all-new main cast, they almost all ran away scared. This is perhaps the major problem when it comes to pre-broadcast shoots: since you need to secure investment before the ratings are out (box office : Movies = ratings : Dramas), that often leads you to compromise the integrity of the project to give investors the terms they want to pump money into the Drama -- which might not be at Sageuk level, but touching the 5 Billion Won for a normal Miniseries is still quite expensive.
| |
| − | | |
| − | This wasn't the first time Hwang tried this approach, as he helped legendary Sanullim front man Kim Chang-Hwan make a debut in the acting world with the interesting (but flawed) 1994 omnibus drama 연애의 기초 (Love Formula), which he was planner for. And if you've ever seen Kim act, you know he looks born to be in this business (of course he and his brother were much more famous for their work in the music business). But now the problem was dealing with the youngsters he picked: Yoon Eun-Hye, former BabyV.O.X. member, who lost a lot of weight to look the part; Kim Jung-Hoon, former U.N. member -- who did debut in films last year, but if you've seen his first two films then you know why people were complaining; Joo Ji-Hoon, a former model with no acting experience, and finally Song Ji-Hyo, who debuted in 여우계단 (Wishing Stairs) and confirmed the good first impression with her role in 썸 (Some).
| |
| − | | |
| − | Song was the only one with a future in this business at the beginning, and after watching the show things haven't changed a bit, but since her role wasn't the focus of Princess Hours, then we were essentially dealing with three newcomers. And that's when people started complaining. In theory, Hwang's modus operandi was actually right: since big stars would carry an image with them, that'd work against their making the characters (high school students) feel fresh. Of course the rest of the cast was made of people who had the ability to save the day, like veterans Kim Hye-Ja, Shim Hye-Jin, Im Ye-Jin, Gang Nam-Gil and Park Chan-Hwan, but you know the deal, this is a Miniseries, and they'd only get to try and do some damage control.
| |
| − | | |
| − | But even if casting might have been a problem, the rest of production was top notch: In Eun-Ah, who was in the writing team for the lovely romcom 좋은 사람 있으면 소개시켜줘 (A Perfect Match) and even Jang Yoon-Hyun's 텔 미 썸딩 (Tell Me Something); Art Director Min Eon-Ok, who won awards for her excellent work in 혈의 누 (Blood Rain); Visual Supervisor Min Byung-Cheon, director of 유령 (Phantom: The Submarine) and 내츄럴 시티 (Natural City); music by indie group 두번째 달 (2nd Moon); food experts who worked on 대장금 (Dae Jang Geum) to give more colour to what was served in the Palace, and more. And that reaped fruits right from the beginning: this is one of the best looking Dramas of recent memory. It's not on par with 신돈 (Shin Don) and 주몽 (Jumong), but those are ultra-expensive Historical Dramas where production values are an essential part. Music is quite a few notches above your average Miniseries, and PD Hwang's assured direction makes this look more like a film than a Trendy Drama.
| |
| − | | |
| − | But above all that, the main item was the most creative thing: strip Historical Dramas (rarely watched by teenagers) of their more heavy-handed, complicated nuances (conflicts and political intrigue still remains, but it's like 5% of your usual Sageuk) and maintain their major possible appeal to this target demographic: their sumptuous sets, production values and that air of 'familiar unfamiliarity' which the Joseon setting always gives to Koreans. And, here's the key, bring all that to a modern setting. Yes, Princess Hours deals with a Korea still in the Joseon Dynasty, essentially, but also enjoying all the benefits of modern technology and pop culture (the cover of the manhwa which inspired this Drama has the Princess dressed with a traditional Hanbok and a mobile phone on hand). The first few episodes playfully work around this idea, that even though it's still everyday Korea with Lee Hyo-Ri, silly school fights and all the trips and traps of Korean teenagers, we're not dealing with a Republic.
| |
| − | | |
| − | This approach is important, not only because it brings young teenagers closer to their roots in a way that doesn't alienate them -- unlike, say, what Im Kwon-Taek did with 춘향 (Chunhyang). And, if things actually ended up as Hwang had promised before the show, Princess Hours could have bridged the gap between age demographics, as it brought Trendy Dramas closer to older viewers' world than the Andromeda satellite it appeared for all these years. As an avid Sageuk fan, I have to admit the first few episodes of this show were quite fascinating, and some of the best performances in a while from the veterans made it all the more interesting. Then, of course, problems started. MBC, hungry for anything resembling a ratings increase, stuck with the show a little too long, adding 4 unnecessary episodes which only ended up stretching a script that had already serious pacing problems.
| |
| − | | |
| − | And now they're even giving us a Season 2, as clearly they will never get tired of ratings between the 25 and 30%. This gap to fill, these extra 4 episodes made the show hard to stand, not only because the story was simply going nowhere (and, quite frankly, moving from the initial interesting premise to the usual Trendy Drama cliches, this time with a Palace setting), but also because the putrid acting of the main trio (especially an almost embarrassingly bland Kim Jung-Hoon) made things even worse. Nothing happening here has any impact, you can hardly care about the characters, and sometimes you'd wish some more focus was spent on the 'ancillary' characters: the best scenes of the show involve Chae-Kyung's interaction with her family, and the political intrigue surrounding the Royal Family's problematic past, with Kim Hye-Ja and Park Chan-Hwan in particularly splendid form.
| |
| − | | |
| − | What do you do when you're given more of a dish even though you're full? And, even worse, what will the makers of the second Season give us, with writer In Eun-Ah out of the picture, and a script which needs to be written from scratch (Season 2 won't have an original source this time)? Frankly, I just hope these are early (mis)steps in the slow but inevitable move to 'Seasonal' Dramas, because if this is more of what we'll get, then we'll be left with a Panorama full of shows written like Friends. That is, shoving uninteresting characters in uninteresting situations down people's throat for years, hoping they won't notice there's something better to watch. As a concept, Princess Hours was brilliant. What we got at the end, a little less. Time to reflect on those mistakes, and come back with something better next Season. Because those Princess 'Hours' felt like decades to me...

| − | ==ARTICLE ABOUT YOON EUN HYE==
| |
| − | Online Star Focus Jun 06, 2006,
| |
| − | | |
| − | Yoon Eun-hye
| |
| − | | |
| − | She's the gem that puts a smile on audience's faces with her role in the hit TV drama, ¡°Goong¡±, or ¡°Princess Hours¡± - actress YOON EUN-HYE!
| |
| − | From singer to actress, she's been at the center of attention and deemed one of the hottest stars of 2006. STAR FOCUS got Yoon Eun-hye for a little one-on-one.
| |
| − | | |
| − | We sat down with her during a commercial shoot for a green tea beverage. Yoon's schedule has been CRAZY hectic, but she was happy to meet with us!
| |
| − | | |
| − | With her soaring popularity as a budding actress, Yoon Eun-hye is swamped with daily casting calls for commercials. She takes this one in-stride - a vivacious young lady, full of bouncy cheer, a bit simliar to her character in ¡°Princess Hours¡±!
| |
| − | | |
| − | From hit comic book series, to the small screen - the adaptation of ¡°Princess Hours¡±! It's a fictitious tale of Korea as a constitutional monarchy, with a royal family. Yoon is an ordinary high-school girl who ends up marrying the royal prince. For first-time actress Yoon Eun-hye, the response has been pleasantly shocking.
| |
| − | | |
| − | But the truth is that Yoon Eun-hye wasn't welcome in the acting arena at first. People were surprised to hear that such a rookie would be taking the lead in an upcoming drama; A rookie who used to be a singer and had no formal acting training. But she showed them how it could be done! Yoon Eun-hye played her character PERFECTLY and made sparks fly with co-star, Joo Ji-hoon. So, how is it that she dug-out such a hidden talent?
| |
| − | | |
| − | In 1999, a five-member girl group blasted into K-pop. They were Baby VOX and that was Yoon Eun-hye's debut into stardom.
| |
| − | They cranked out hit after hit, and basked in the limelight. Not many people realize how popular Baby VOX actually was - They were one of the first to promote overseas, forerunners of the Korean Wave.
| |
| − | (Successful in music and acting, which was HER personal favorite?)
| |
| − | | |
| − | Yoon is already a 8-year veteran celebrity. Music, drama, and soon enough, we'll see her on the silver screen, with the movie, ¡°Escaping Charisma¡±.
| |
| − | | |
| − | This bright-eyed star is also wanted for her spunk in many variety programs, as well as commercials.
| |
| − | She's shown us different sides to her personality in a couple ads, but there's still more she wants to try out.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Quiet and lady-like? There was none of that here today!
| |
| − | The production team wanted upbeat, bouncy, cute! And that's what they got. She gave us the highlight with her special "happy-dance."
| |
| − | Another reason she was so loveable - her easy-going spirit.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Glowing praise for her performance in ¡°Princess Hours¡±! Yoon Eun-hye has adjusted extremely well into the world of acting.
| |
| − | One step at a time, we hope she'll continue bringing us more of the best.

| − | ==INTERVIEW WITH JOO JI HOON==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Writer admin Update : 2006-04-03 Hit : 1542
| |
| − | Title An interview of Joo Ji-hoon from < Princess Hours >
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | Content There are a lot of modern TV dramas, however this is the first one whose setting is modern-day Korea as a constitutional monarchy. Strangely enough, tradition and modernity are in harmony in this story. A lot of attention is given to Prince Shin in the Story.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The 2314(0.57acre) set in Osan cost 1.5 billion won to build. What does it look like?
| |
| − | Prince Shin's room is filled with a high-tech home theater and an old movie projector, which represent his fascination with movies.
| |
| − | | |
| − | An interview with Prince Shin, Joo Ji Hoon
| |
| − | | |
| − | - Have you been to a fortune teller this year?
| |
| − | I don't like to go to fortune tellers, however I do think that everything will go well this year.
| |
| − | The drama "Princess Hours" starts well, and I will try my best with my first role. Recently I have been more stressed, but I believe a person's destiny is based on their effort.
| |
| − | | |
| − | - What has been the reaction to your role so far?
| |
| − | The comments are 50 - 50. I thank those who are supporting me with their kind thoughts. But I also thank the other half for being honest about my performance.
| |
| − | | |
| − | - What are the difficulties in playing the role?
| |
| − | Many scenes are not that easy for me, especially the ones where I need to express extreme changes in emotions. It is difficult for me as a young actor to express opposite emotion in a short period of time. Also I feel a lack of skill when I have to hit or while being hit. When I am hitting or being hit by others, I am not satisfied with my performance. I have heard that there are special schools that can help me with this part of my acting. I think I will continue to try to make this part of my acting more life-like.
| |
| − | | |
| − | - You were a model. Are there any strengths or weakness in going from being a model to an actor?
| |
| − | Still shots and video are definitely different. With 3 years of modeling experience I feel confident in a still photo. I think I am too used to radiating a feeling in still shots so I feel like robot in front of the movie camera. I realize that acting in a natural way is much more difficult than just being myself without a camera.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Of course others before have made similar changes. Audiences prefer to be satisfied in a visual way, thus actors and actresses that were previously models are increasingly popular. It is a mixture of fashion and broadcasting. I would like to encourage models who have the talent and desire to take a shot at acting.
| |
| − | | |
| − | - Did you have any difficulties because of your height?
| |
| − | Handyman was my nickname in high school. Because of my height, I was very recognizable to every teacher and student. I was 6'1'' tall at 22 years old and now I am 6'2'' tall. I stretch every morning, afternoon and night. It is easy and indeed it works. If you have a problem with your height, try that.
| |
| − | | |
| − | - Do you like Prince Shin dolls?
| |
| − | I like to pick up the dolls in vending machines. My odds of success are pretty high as I spent so much money on those machines when I was in school. With 1000 won there are 3 chances and I can normally pick up 7 to 8 dolls. I like to play Prince Shin as he and I have several similarities.
| |
| − | | |
| − | - What do you think about the idea of a marriage of convenience?
| |
| − | I don't like a marriage for any purpose other than true love. Also I don¡¯t like too many differences between couples. I haven't had a girlfriend for 3 years and I hope my new girlfriend will be similar to me.
| |
| − | | |
| − | - Do you work well together with Yun Eun-hye?
| |
| − | Both of us are in the learning stage right now therefore we are getting better with each scene. As time goes by, Yun Eun-hye is really becoming 'Chea-kyung' while I become Prince Shin. She used to have the image of a singer from 'Babybox' however now she has her own image. I didn't know it before but she has a great complexion
| |
| − | | |
| − | - How does your personality compare to Prince Shin's?
| |
| − | Everyone has different sides to their personality. I am very outgoing when I am with others however I don't like to go out once I get home. Also I like to listen to music and read books. Personally I believe that everyone needs to have their own space so they can enjoy time on their own. I am pretty much similar with Prince Shin's character at the beginning of the drama. He is extroverted when outside but not when at home. However he slowly opens his heart to 'Chae-kyung' at the end of the drama. It is great to see how Prince Shin becomes a real 18 year-old boy.
| |
| − | | |
| − | - How did your parents react when you decided to become an actor?
| |
| − | I have a very big family; 8 people including my grandparents, therefore they are very conservative. However when I decided to change my career from modeling to acting nobody said anything about it. Indeed, my parents liked it when I got into university with an acting major. Even though they never say anything, I know they love that I¡¯m on a TV drama, as one day my mother brought a stack of papers to me to put my signature on.
| |
| − | | |
| − | - Do you have a role model among other actors?
| |
| − | Every actor has his own style. I like to watch movies to study the actors when I have spare time, but instead of picking several actors to follow, I want to learn from all the actors I can. Before I started acting, Jung Woo-sung was my favorite, as we are from the same generation. I want to be an actor that someday somebody else wants to follow.
| |
| − | | |
| − | This interview took place on the set, with Ji-hoon sporting a nice smile throughout. He seemed so quiet at first, however he is a very smooth talker. His deep love of acting was very noticeable throughout the interview. Let¡¯s look forward to seeing more of him on the screen.
