[News] 090819 Debuting Actor U-Know Yunho Gains Strength From Fans Support

TVXQ’s U-Know Yunho is getting strength from his fans’ samgyetang support.
U-Know Yunho is taking his first shot at acting with MBC’s new Wednesday-Thursday drama ‘Heading to the Ground’. Thanks to his fans support even during the hot weather, U-Know Yunho never seems to be tired and seems to play his role with more strength and vigor.

A representative of ‘Heading to the Ground’ said, “To support U-Know Yunho, many domestic and international fans visit the filming location almost daily,” and “During the hottest day of the year, the fans prepared samgyetang for the staff which helped a lot. Since we were filming outside, they also provided sun lotion for us. We are so thankful.”

U-Know Yunho plays the role of Cha Bong-goon, a man who lives an unlucky life, having almost died three times, but still lives a passionate life in order to fulfill his dream of playing on the national soccer team. U-Know Yunho said, “When I read the script, I was full of emotions. I wanted to transfer those feeling to the screen and act from my heart.”

‘Heading to the Ground’ is the first drama in Korea that revolves around soccer, and is a love story that results from the misunderstandings that arise between passionate yet unlucky Bong-goon and Kang Haebin (played by Ara), a girl who has everything but wishes to succeed on her own.

Lee Yoonji plays the role of Oh-yeon, Cha Bong-goon’s long time friend who begins to develop feelings for him and she will be in a love tri-angle with Ara.‘Heading to the Ground’ will begin airing on September 9th after ‘Hon (Spirit)’ has finished.

*note from your translator: Samgyetang is a popular summer dish in Korea and it is basically a whole chicken boiled with various items such as garlic, dates, and ginseng. It is known to replenish the health and is eaten a lot during summer when the weather is particularly hot and unbearable.
