Seems like DBSK’s Yunho is going to be following fellow groupmate Junsu’s footsteps, as it has recently been announced that he has been given the lead role in the upcoming musical version of the acclaimed and highly popular drama, Goong. He will be playing Prince Shin, who was played by Joo Ji-hoon in the drama version. He certainly can pass for Prince Charming in the released picture–there’s something incredibly serene and calming about his smile.

I have not seen Goong myself, but I have heard many wonderful things about it. Not to mention, it’s ridiculously popular and has been released in various languages, so I’m very happy that Yunho can star in this, especially since his debut drama, Heading to the Ground, was not that successful. I admit that he wouldn’t be my first choice to cast in a musical, but his vocals have come so far and have improved so much since his debut days. Yunho is such a hard worker and I think we can all take a lesson or two from him, so he definitely deserves this.

Best of luck to Yunho on his musical debut! Who knows, maybe he’ll follow in Junsu’s footsteps some more and win the award for Best Male Rookie at the next Musical Awards!
