TVXQ's Yunho Will Make A Strong First Appearance In ‘Queen Of Ambition’ As An Ice Hockey Player

Jung Yunho will appear in the second episode of ‘Queen of Ambition’ as an ice hockey player.

Jung Yunho (U-Know Yunho) will make his first appearance on the second episode of SBS’ Monday-Tuesday drama ‘Queen of Ambition’ that airs on the 15th of January. He plans to show off his boyish charm as the love interest of Soo Ae and as the chaebol Baek Do Hoon.

On this day, Do Hoon will be locked in a competitive ice hockey match with his school’s rival Kyeongshin University as an ice hockey player of Donghwa University’s graduating class. For this scene, Jung Yunho visited the Oulimnuri ice rink in Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-do, and filmed for a total of 20 hours from 8am to 4am the next day.

Jung Yunho received much applause for his sharp skating skills that matched his character’s talents. The Kyung Hee University ice hockey team made a special appearance for the scene and were later heard to have been surprised. Jung Yunho appeared on SBS’ ‘I Like Sundays – Kim Yuna’s Kiss&Cry’ in 2011 and took on the challenge of figure skating, and it was said that he has been receiving intensive individual training since he was cast in ‘Queen of Ambition’.

In the photos that the staff released on the 15th, viewers can see Jung Yunho gliding on the ice with his talent and stick work. He is perfectly portraying the passionate and cute charm of his character.

It is said that 1,000 fans from Jung Yunho’s fanclub participated in the filming process. Since it would realistically be impossible to call in 1,000 extras, the staff could have filled the seats with computer graphics, even if it would look awkward. However, Jung Yunho’s fans stepped forward to solve the issue. A total of eight cameras, including the main camera, supporting camera, a body camera and a wire camera, were used to create a lively scene.

Jung Yunho said, “I’m very nervous because this is the first time in a while that I’m appearing in a drama, but I will work hard as a rookie actor. I’m happy to be working with such great seniors.” He also expressed his gratitude for the fans who came to support him, despite the cold weather.
