Actress Ha Ji Won, who will be playing the lead role in the upcoming MBC drama "The King 2Hearts" with Lee Seung Gi, has been practicing her dance moves to T-ara's hit song "Bo Peep Bo Peep" for the drama.
The news was quite peculiar as Ha Ji Won will play a North Korean officer and dancing and singing to a hit girl group’s song does not seem to fit. The reason her in-drama character dances to "Bo Peep Bo Peep" is to assimilate South Korean style and culture. For that very scene, Ha Ji Won has been working in 1-2 hours everyday into perfecting her dancing and singing skills.
A representative stated, "There were a lot of songs we considered. However, they ended up choosing ‘Bo Peep Bo Peep’ because of the cute cat dance. Although Ha Ji Won is already well-known as an exceptional dancer, she is practicing hard to receive recognition from anyone who watches the drama."
