[trans] "Diary of Night Watchmen", Romantic Ghost Story Captivating the Small Screen

Amidst the impending premiere broadcast of "Diary of Night Watchmen" on 4 August, the anticipation of the viewers are pouring in.

MBC Monday-Tuesday drama "Diary of Night Watchmen" (scriptwriter Yoo Dong Yoon, director Lee Joo Hwan) is a production which holds itself out as the Korean version of "Ghost Busters". Following SBS' "Master's Sun" (scriptwriter Hong Jung Eun & Hong Mi Ran, director Jin Hyuk), there is attention focusing on whether it will once again gain success in the romantic horror comedy genre.

"Diary of Night Watchmen" is a ghost-busting story which depicts the love and friendship of youths during the Joseon period. The main plot revolves around 4 young night watchmen who stand guard to protect the palace and the king from ghosts, and who fight a lone battle while protecting and reviving the Joseon dynasty and the rare treasures.

However, unlike a story depicting the past and the story of ghosts through frightening subject matter, a new broadened scope has been discovered recently with ghosts appearing in romantic comedy dramas. 

Shim Eun Ha's 1994 MBC drama "M", SBS' 1999 "Ghost" and 2009's "Hometown of Legends" broadcast on KBS2 and MBC's "Spirit" etc were typical horror dramas with "scary" ghosts as their subject matter.

However, entering into 2010, one could see a different appearance of dramas with ghosts as the subject matter. Notwithstanding that SBS' "My Girlfriend is a Gumiho" was a ghost story, they showed off a vivacious appeal using romantic comedy elements. Compared to KBS2' "Gumiho: Tale of the Fox's Child" which ended with an average viewer ratings of 12%, "My Girlfriend is a Gumiho" recorded viewer ratings over 20%, proving its popularity.

By abandoning the cliched plot settings of how ghosts only appear in a horror fashion in dramas, their pleasant appearance in dramas nowadays has captured the viewers' hearts in a fresh manner.

Subsequently, while the ghost story in 2011 SBS drama "49 Days" integrated melodrama elements and 2012 OCN's "Vampire Prosecutor" incorporated crime investigation elements, they were not able to enjoy huge popularity. However, SBS' "Master's Sun" which was broadcast last year saw it being a runaway hit with viewer ratings exceeding 20%, inclining the slant towards an atmosphere of "romantic comedy horror stories are undoubtedly the best".

Meanwhile, the scriptwriting duties of "Diary of Night Watchmen" are helmed by writer Yoo Dong Yoon, who had written dramas "The King's Dream", "Dae Mul (Big Thing)", "The King and I", "Age of Warriors" and "Ladies of the Palace". The directing is helmed by Producer Lee Joo Hwan, who has his forte in period dramas through dramas such as "Jumong" and "Shin Don". The production is led by "Raemongraein", which had created "Sungkyunkwan Scandal", which enjoyed huge popularity in 2010. 

With the unique subject matter coupled with screenwriters, directors and production companies which one can have faith in, "Diary of Night Watchmen" which boasts of this marvellous combination creates anticipation for the small screen in the upcoming summer in August.

[trans] "Diary of Night Watchmen" Jung Il Woo & U-Know Yunho, These 2 Men Will Take Responsibility For This Summer

Actors Jung Il Woo and U-Know Yunho are amassing anticipation for the showing of their fabulous "chemistry" this summer.

Ahead the upcoming premiere broadcast of MBC Monday-Tuesday drama "Diary of Night Watchmen" (screenwriter Yoo Dong Yoon, director Lee Joo Hwan) on 4 August, the collaboration between the 2 leads Jung Il Woo and U-Know Yunho are already making female hearts flutter.

"Diary of Night Watchmen" is a romantic horror comedy touted as the Korean version of "Ghost Busters", and is a ghost-busting story portraying the love and friendship of 4 young night watchmen who protect the palace and the king from the ghosts.

Jung Il Woo, who takes on the role of night watchmen Lee Rin, had previously flaunted his natural period drama acting abilities in MBC drama "The Moon Embraces The Sun" (screenwriter Jin Soo Wan, directors Kim Do Hoon & Lee Sung Joon). Jung Il Woo, who possesses elegant looks such that it wouldn't be a farce to call him a "flower boy bachelor", has aroused one's curiosity as to what kind of appearance he will show as a night watchman.

One is also anticipating the acting of Jung Yunho (U-Know Yunho), who takes on the role of Moo Suk. Jung Yunho, who is a member of group TVXQ as well as also active as an actor, had shown his improved acting in SBS drama "Yawang". He is anticipated to be able to digest the role of a night watchman well with his natural-born nimble and light physique reminiscent of that of a fantastic dancer.

The 2 young actors in their 20s, Jung Il Woo and U-Know Yunho, who are a magical combination just by looking at them. The acting abilities and the "magical chemistry" of the both of them, who will be making their comeback with unique roles of night watchmen, has already gotten the fans excited.

-information about the screenwriter and director omitted-

With the best screenwriter and director, coupled with the superb express train dubbed "Jung Il Woo and U-Know Yunho", "Diary of Night Watchmen" is the best anticipated production of this summer in all aspects.

[trans] "Diary of Night Watchmen" - The "Refreshing Summer Nights" Brought by Jung Il Woo & U-Know Yunho

-only Yunho-related parts translated. The rest of the article is similar to the ones translated yesterday.-

"Another actor who is being anticipated is Jung Yunho. The role which he has taken on for "Diary of Night Watchmen" is that of swordsman Moo Suk. Jung Yunho maintains his natural-born athletic ability as a belted taekwondo candidate.

 

He is therefore gaining anticipation for the actions scenes where by displays his sword-wielding skills."

[trans] Yunho's interview video for "Diary of Night Watchmen"

 

Q: predicted ratings for "Diary of Night Watchmen"?


Yunho: I don't know. But it seems like the ratings will do well, I dreamed a good dream, you know.

Q: what kind of dream was it?

Yunho: I dreamed about a baby tiger. I had a dream about a baby tiger making "growling growling" rumbling sounds, the baby tiger was looking at the sky and kept making "growling growling" rumbling sounds, and in my own way, I thought, "isn't this a good dream?" and it feels like.. there was a light appearing. So I thought, "wouldn't a good result appear?"
