‘Idol opponents’ SS501 Kim Hyun Joong and TVXQ Micky, from stage to theater, will have a confrontation in self-esteem duel.

SS501 Kim Hyun Joong as the male lead in MBC’s new drama ‘Mischievous Kiss’ (September 1 broadcast), and as an ex-member TVXQ, Micky Yoochun who, through KBS 2TV’s new drama ‘Sungkyunkwan Scandal’ (August 30 broadcast), becomes an actor

Because of changes in management companies and unknown status of their respective groups, both will be using TV drama as a new starting point.

Kim Hyun Joong and Micky Yoochun have been opponents in the music industry since the two belongs to SS501 and TVXQ which have been the nation’s top boy bands; they have engaged in a friendly competition ever since debut.

Especially since both groups are five-members group, from the group members, to the popularity in korea and even thoughout Asia naturally become a good comparison for both.

The results of the two reappearing as actors, not singers, in a duel once again are closely watched. The commonalities between the two, both ‘Mischievous Kiss’ and ‘Sungkyunkwan Scandal’ are Kim Hyun Joong’s and Micky Yoochun’s first time as the male leads in the dramas; both targeting at the younger audience levels; same broadcast timing which made the competition between the two more intense.

Kim Hyun Joong possibly has more room over Micky Yoonchun in terms of being an actor, because of the Korean version of “Boys Over Flowers” in which he starred as JiHoo Sunbae, displayed his full acting skills and proved his star effect. But there are some problems as Kim Hyun Joong was pointed out on his pronunciation and unnatural expression in ‘Boys Over Flowers’. So how Kim Hyun Joong is going to enact a different kind of role from that of ‘Boys Over Flowers’ is highly anticipated. If his role in Boys Over Flowers is synonymous with gentle, then his current role is one that is disinterested in anything; boring and cold. Detailed analysis of Japan and Taiwan version of the TV series, said that whether the TV series is popular depends on how much Kim Hyun Joong is able to assimulate the role.
see how Kim Hyun Joong shoulders a heavy burden. Micky Yoochun in ‘Sungkyunkwan Scandal’ also started off with a heavy responsibility. Although he has been acknowledged as a star in the music industry, Micky Yoochun is a rookie in the world of drama acting. As an actor, Micky Yoochun’s gentle image in TVXQ will have a 180-degree change. His role, Lee Sun Joon, in the drama is a perfect guy with outstanding knowledge, financial status and looks.

TV fans of the original novel is divided into two, some were saying the choice to cast Micky Yoonchun in this drama is the best while other said the role is inconsistent. Facing his challenges as an actor for the first time, many are concerned with whether Micky Yoochun can perform up to expectation and display his acting skills to the fullest.

As opponents, previously in the music industry, now in the acting industry, Kim Hyun Joong and Micky Yoochun’s new drama battle is highly anticipated.
