The most wanted celebrities by advertisers for the first half of 2009 have just been revealed. The results are according to a recent survey by the Korea Broadcast Advertising Corporation.

The top female celebrity was Korean figure skating champion and 2010 Olympic Gold Medal contender Kim Yu Na. Yu Na has been the Nation’s sweetheart ever since winning the World Championship in record setting style. Other top female celebrities included Kim Tae Hee, Jeon Ji Hyun, Lee Hyori, Kim Nam Joo, Han Ga In, and Lee Young Ae.

The top male celebrity is a surprise, it’s Speedy Scandal’s Cha Tae Hyun. Oppa, say what? Although Tae Hyun is hilarious and a great actor, I can’t believe he beat out top competitors like Rain, Jang Dong Gun, Park Ji Sung, Lee Min Ho, and Lee Seung Gi.
So what do you think? Would you give up your hard earned cash for something that Yu Na or Tae Hyun sold you? Or are advertisers chasing after the wrong celebrities?

This is not finalized (so take with a grain of salt), but Jeon Ji-hyun’s potential drama comeback just may come in the Korean adaptation of Japanese manga Absolute Boyfriend, aka Zettai Kareshi. The kdrama will be directed by PD Kim Min-shik of Queen of Housewives and Before and After: Plastic Surgery.

Jeon Ji-hyun is currently busy surveying projects to finalize her decision, and the Zettai remake is reportedly a strong contender. (It had considered casting U-Know Yunho at one point, who moved on to Heading to the Ground instead.) A source with the production said, “We understand that for a long while, Jeon Ji-hyun has been carefully preparing to take a role in a Korean drama. We are working out the details of her casting, and hope for a positive result.”


In the original fantasy-romance manga, a girl accidentally gets a made-to-order boyfriend android from a website, only to find out that she has to pay an exorbitant amount to keep him — unless she helps the company conduct research to improve future models. She must then hide his non-human status from others, and he starts to develop human emotions.

In the kdrama version, the lead is not a teenager but a 30-year-old woman who is a stylist at a beauty salon without any clients. She is betrayed by her first love who becomes an overnight success as a movie star. Feeling the sting, she orders up her ideal man in robot form, aka her “absolute boyfriend.”

Absolute Boyfriend will be a 16-episode drama to air on MBC either at the end of this year or in early 2010. If she decides on the drama, it will be Jeon Ji-hyun’s first in ten years, since 1999’s Happy Together. After seeing such a lot of the same old kdramas airing one after another, this plot sounds like a refreshing change.

Firstly do not get misunderstood and think negatively about this topic. It’s just the staff (who experienced working with the artists)

1. TVXQ – the reason why they are in this category is because they got so many rules before accepting one job and Cassiopeia are not really cooperating with the reporters
2. Bae Yong Jun – again there are so many rules to work with him.
3. Kim Kibum (Super Junior) – Kibum got so many things to do so we gotta wait and wait and wait.
4. Jeon Ji Hyun – So many rules before getting to interview her
