After so much anticipation for Park Min Young's next project, Culture Depot finally released an official statement. Park Min Young will be joining the Chinese actor Hans Zhang Han in a Chinese period drama Braveness of the Ming 锦衣夜行 . It will be a 30-episode drama and is based on a popular C-novel series. Min Young will be playing the role of Xie Yu Fei who is a wife of Xia Xun. Not much info has been released yet, although there is already an official pre-production poster.

Chinese version of Gossip Girl, which was initially planned to start production in June till September has been postponed. Braveness of the Ming will fill her time while waiting for another Korean project set to start in September. Looks like Min Young will be quite busy this year.

My comment in blue :-)

1. Best character you acted as up to this point. (YoungShin)

I like all my characters but YoungShin I think I especially like. Actors shouldn't say "best" easily, but Youngshin is my most favorite one. Yoonhee from Sungkyunkwan Scandal has been replaced in my heart. (yeah I agree, CYS is the best so far)

2. First time I drank. (Secret)

Isn't this question a bit hateful? (laughs)

(but it is no secret that she drinks alcohol)

3. Best partner/co-star? (I won't fall for this)

Whoever it is, you guys will latch on for sure. (haha! safe. I remember she is also close to Yoo Ah In in SKKS...Seriously, just read the other interviews and we already know who he is.)

4. Want to collaborate with (Josh Hartnett) once.

There are many Korean actors, Josh Hartnett's sexy and deep expressive eyes have a lot of charm. (ah, she really likes Josh Hartnett)

5. Song that I like to sing at karaoke. (In the Dream)

I recently went out to eat with the staff from my managing company, and I sang Lena Park's "In the Dream". Even though I'm not that great at singing, but it's doable. (she must be singing a lot with Jessica)

6. Song I hum to recently is (Healer OST).

Our drama has lots of great songs, I frequently listen to them while on the move and hum along. (hmmm, I will protect you?)

7. Best part I like about my body. (Eyes)

I like my eyes the most, aren't they bright/sparkly? (she has nice pair of legs as well)

8. If possible, want to marry before age (35).

After returning from 2 year hiatus, I'm currently immersed in acting. I'm not good at multitasking (doing two things at once). I should probably fall in love again after I improve in acting. I want to try acting the role of a married woman after age 35. (I support you there)

9. Alias is (미뇽이 / Minnyuongie).

There are lots where one's own name is used as alias, it's 미뇽이. I uploaded a lot of pictures on SNS using that name too. (I thought it's Rachel)

10. My mobile messenger 대문글/front page message. (Nothing)

Really nothing, I didn't write anything there. (I find her a bit lazy in SNS... she doesn't say so much on her profile either.)

11. (Tell Me) is the shameful history I want to erase.

I danced to Wonder Girls' "Tell Me" at the 2007 KBS Awards. It's the same right now, as the newcomer's award candidate for that year, I danced for the award opening ceremony. It's a video I do not wish to ever see again, please don't look for it. (what?!? ... I love that video ... she was so cute there)

12. Recently I'm immersed in (acting).

There's a fire burning within my heart. After finishing the drama series in China, I'll return to Korea and most likely do another drama series. I came back from a long hiatus so I'll most likely take on lots of projects. (good for her)

13. I cried recently because of (Myung Hee).

Do Ji Won-sunbae-nim. I feel sad for Myung Hee in Healer. (it's sad that they didn't have much scene together)

14. Moment you're the happiest after debut. (Right now)

I'm not just saying, I really feel like right now I'm the happiest. As an actress returning after 2 year of hiatus, it feels the same (? chinese translation is kind of weird here, not sure what she means). I feel like I achieved success on that point. So I'm the happiest now no? (yeah, I'm sure she's happy right now... she even look more beautiful)

15. Last Kiss (1 week ago)

Haha, last time was the kiss scene in the drama Healer with JCW. If it's in love, it's been a really long time. (hey, kiss scene in a drama is not counted ... unless...)
