[KBS2'08]Strongest Chil Woo/최강칠우 {Updated to ep 6} June 18, 2008

Director : Park Man Yung 박만영
Scriptwriter : Baek Wun Chul 백운철
Main Cast: Eric, Goo Hye Sun


Shinhwa member Eric (Mun Jung Hyuk, 29) will be displaying his acting skills for the last time before he enlists into the army.

The KBS2 drama, 최강칠우 (Choi Gang Chiru / Strongest Chiru - working title) from 9 June onwards, every Monday and Tuesday at 9.55pm. Scripted by Baek Yoon Chul and produced by Park Man Young, the drama will star Eric as the male lead character Kang Chiru (working name).

“Strongest Chiru” is KBS’s latest sageuk drama after “Hong Gil Dong”. Eric will play a lowly officer in a 의금부 (eui geum bu) (a court that handles crimes of treason) in the Joseon era, nondescript, not very smart and whose lifelong ambition is to become a mid-level officer. However when night falls, he transforms into the top assassin in an assassination organization, who metes out punishment to evildoers and gives justice where needed. This challenging role will see him play out a man with two vastly different characters.

The court, the equivalent of the modern-day police department in the Joseon era, will be the setting for the drama, and the sageuk drama will feature action scenes with assassins with various secrets.

After starring in MBC’s “Que Sera Sera” last May, Eric has been busy with Shinhwa’s overseas activities. This will be the last drama project before he enlists into the army.

Eric, unlike the other members, hasn’t had any solo album activities beside Shinhwa group activities.

Shinhwa’s 9th album is due to be released very soon, and when interviewed Eric sad, “I took a long break because my health condition wasn’t that good. Now I’m in my peak condition.”

Eric’s management company Top Class Entertainment expressed, “Eric can’t really relate himself to a sageuk drama, but as the script is very interesting, he decided on it as his next project. After a year’s break, he’s now in the pink of health. This drama is expected to end in mid-August and he’s scheduled to enlist in September”.

Cast:

Info from official SBS site, translation by aikomidori @ B.O.N. FunSubs


Sung-Chan
[27 - 29 years old; Kim Rae Won] Descendant of a captain/colonel who was in the king’s grace in the late Chosun period. However, at the time the captain/colonel met an unjust death and as that truth became unrevealed, the upturned family continues its line in a mountainside living a normal and poor life. In the year when Sung Chan turns ten years old, Oh-SookSoo (sorry I can’t seem to translate ‘Sook Soo’) comes to him, claiming that he is Sung Chan’s grandfather’s friend’s son and Sung Chan goes to Seoul to be raised together with Oh’s son, Bong Joo.


Jin Soo
[24 – 26 years old; Nam Sang Mi] She is outgoing, emotional, and a tomboy so she may seem annoying, but she also has a childlike and lovable nature. After she graduated from college in the country, she went to Seoul to take a qualifying exam to get into a Seoul newspaper agency. When she first arrived at the Seoul station, the first place she went to while dragging her large suitcase was “Un Ahm Jung (운암정)” (sorry I can’t seem to put this into a translator either). As a gourmand, she possesses an extraordinary interest and eye for food, and so her dream is to become a food columnist.


Bong Joo
[29 – 32 years old; Kwon Oh Joong] Mr. Oh’s son. As a child, he couldn’t understand why his father treated the mischievous Sung Chan with so much hospitality, but he acted the older brother part well. As Sung Chan turned to cooking and became more serious, his father’s worry lessened, but inversely, the Don Quixote of the kitchen Sung Chan became Bong Joo’s worry. As he watches Sung Chan who has zero level of skill or emotion to deserve to be “Dae Ryung Sook Soo” (this is the term I translated to be captain/colonel earlier but should I just leave it like this?) descendant, he starts to feel rivalry and jealousy.


Min Woo
[27 – 29 years old; Won Ki Joon] He is a top cook along with Sung Chan and Bong Joo in “Un Ahm Jung (운암정)”. He managed to go through that difficult and picky barrier into “Un Ahm Jung” (ah, I guess it’s the name of their restaurant place?) and as he heads for the best, he has become a sturdy pillar of support of Un Ahm Jung today. However he ends up meeting Sung Chan who he had problems with in high school at Un Ahm Jung and as he is forced to be in closer range with Sung Chan, he doesn’t know what to do.


Joo Hee
[28 – 30 years old; Kim So Yeon] Mr. Oh’s personal assistant. She is Mr. Oh’s right arm as he plays a central role in planning Un Ahm Jung’s future. She is a woman who understands and knows Mr. Oh’s intentions the best. She is the daughter of Mr. Oh’s friend who runs Un Ahm Jung’s branch in LA, and when Bong Joo was studying abroad in America, the two spent time like siblings. From a long time ago, Bong Joo liked Joo Hee but when he reveals that she is already in love with Sung Chan.


Mr. Oh
[Late 60s; Choi Bul Ahm] He is Bong Joo’s father and the current head of Un Ahm Jung. He is the only person who knows the buried secrets regarding Bong Joo and Sung Chan. In order to wash his past sins, he takes in Sung Chan and treats him better than his real son, but all Sung Chan gives him is one disappointment after another. However, when Sung Chan picks up cooking and shows skills, he reconfirms that in fact the blood of “Dae Ryung Sook Soo” runs in him.

Hwang Chun Ja’s family

- Yun Bun Hong (Seo Ji Hye)

Twenty-three year old Yun Bun Hong is the daughter of Madam Hwang who owns a tacky Karaoke shop called “Blossoming Rose At Night”. She is a sassy island girl with a very cheerful personality full of emotions of happiness and tears. Although she has a great personality, she is not a very smart girl when it comes to school and she did not grow up in a harmonious family environment either. She never made it to the top of her class (out of 40 students, never ranked above 40). While all her friends left the island to go to college or work, she never once thought about going to college because she was never book smart. Whenever she gets hired for a job, it only last for a few months because all the places she has worked at either goes bankrupt or gets burnt down from fire. She was never able to work at a company for a long period of time due to accidents occurring. Quitting her previous job, she enrolled into a nursing academy. Now she works at a health center as a nurse’s aide/assistant. Being born at a lake, her interests are swimming, cutting fish and making spicy (fish) strew. Her hobby is to go to a dock at dawn and watch the fish auction. She knows all the names of fishes and is the best at taking care of fishes. She lives with a thoughtless and immature mother, who she always fights with. However, inside her heart, she feels sad and pitiful for her mother. She’s the only one that understands her mother the best. She may appear to look shameless due to her courageous appearance, but she is weak and spiritless as well.

- Hwang Chun Ja (Go Doo Shim)

She is Bun Hong’s mother. She manages the “Blossoming Rose At Night” karaoke shop. She was very pretty when she was young, but now she is old and has wrinkles on her face. She wears make-up (which makes her look like a crow), a Miss Korea wig and a long dress. No one knows how old she actually is, except for Bun Hong. Her life motto is “I will dig up my own grave”. She lives her life as a reckless troublemaker and has probably dug up many graves to make her own cemetery (I’m guessing she has butt into other people’s business and got herself into no good). Although she is reckless, she has a deep heart and has a charming side to her, which makes her a loving woman that nobody can hate! As a love supremacist, she is always thirsty for love even when she has had bad relationships with men when she was young. She probably has the same amount of bad and good points about herself. She is an awesome singer when it comes to singing trot (old folk) songs! With her loud voice and friendly personality, she is very good at smooth talking and she is so articulate with her words that she talks better than a lawyer!

Official site : http://tv.sbs.co.kr/iljimae

“Iljimae” is the first complete version of a comic series by Go U-yeong that had been published in a local sports newspaper from 1975 to 1977.
The story line is familiar to every child. A chivalrous bandit during the Joseon Dynasty robs corrupt government officials to feed the poor. Iljime, the hero, leaves a wooden branch from a plum tree at the site of each robbery to take responsibility for the robberies and to protect others.
Indeed, the book has a timeless quality even though the original comic series was written 30 years ago. The dialogue, characters, and the author’s style creates stories that are more than a superficial story about a hero and his struggle with good and evil. The characters’ exaggerated personalities and the humor of their situations save the story from falling into a didactic tale of morality or commentary on social conflict.
This work is considered an excellent example of social parody. Go was a veteran Korean cartoonist who broke with social conventions in his story. He also is known for using characters and stories from ancient folk tales or novels as metaphors for contemporary Korean society.
