2NE1's DARA debuts as an actress by playing the title role in web-drama "Dr. Mo Clinic" (written by Lee Aram, produced by Kwon Hyuk Chan) to be jointly created by Korea and China.

"Dr. Mo Clinic" is a story about the broken heart and healing of a man and woman who had committed themselves to love but were dumped without even saying goodbye. In the drama, DARA acts as a eccentric office girl "Lee So Dam" who hides her face with a puppet mask and her long hair when something embarrassing happens.

DARA said, "Since it's my first drama, I'll learn and grow as an actress from now on. I thought this drama is a very good opportunity for me as I can meet fans around the world on-line through this new genre of web-drama." She also expressed her resolution, saying, "The character is very interesting as she is so similar to me. Of course I feel somewhat nervous and burdened, but I will concentrate and work hard."

DARA is well-known for her bubbly character and pretty look like a Barbie doll. That is why fans have high expectations for her acting of "Lee So Dam".

"Dr. Mo Clinic" is a web-drama jointly created by Korea and China. It will be aired in Korea on NAVER TV Cast and in China on youku (the biggest video-streaming website in China) from mid March. The shooting will begin in early February. The drama is attracting all the more attention as it is directed  by Kwon Hyuk Chan who was one of the directors of drama series "Secret Garden", "A Gentleman's Dignity", "Master's Sun", etc.

Meanwhile, DARA successfully wrapped up performance for 2NE1's second full-length album and the second world tour which was the first-ever case for a girl group, last year."

[benihime99.livejournal.com]

FINALLY!!!


The end must be near, we're all gonna die or something

[shintotchi.livejournal.com]

FINALLY! Her talents are recognized!!! I hope this gets her foot in the door and she becomes the female Joon or smth. Get it bb!

[hurtmybones.livejournal.com]

happy for u Dara girl! I hope those acting lessons she's been taking all this time pay off. it's also pretty clever of her to start out small in a web drama, less pressure on her + less chances of making ppl pressed bc idols taking all the lead roles

[pinksparkles14.livejournal.com]

She started out as an actress in the Philippines actually. :D

[hurtmybones.livejournal.com]

I know (and am trying to forget) but this is the SKorean entertainment scene and other than a cameo role she hasn't done anything so technically she is starting out now.

[merylsteep.livejournal.com]

I'm so happy for her! Web dramas are the thing now and she has a good director on her side.

[adenar.livejournal.com]

sorry, didn't mean to reply to you!

[adenar.livejournal.com]

i had to double check the date because i honestly thought this was an april fool's
sounds like a role that will suit dara, i hope she's improved from the snippets i've seen of her acting though, and congrats!

[lilmissniza.livejournal.com]

Look at YG, releasing the girls from the basement one by one .... & congrats Dara! All those years of hinting her desire to act has finally been answered!

[mundanetuna.livejournal.com]

omggg finally!!! I don't even watch kdramas but if I would totally watch one for her :DDD I wonder how well she will do but I love her sense of humor so I have high hopes.

[babyonions.livejournal.com]

This is weird, what's the lizard hiding from us??????
Congrats Dara <3

[timetobegin.livejournal.com]

Good for her, she's wanted this for ages. Does it also mean 2NE1's group activities will be on hold for a bit (as if they weren't before lmao but)? Makes sense with CL going to the States.

[piqapique.livejournal.com]

I wonder how Omona's reaction gonna be if the post include Youngkwang's name. hmmmm
I like her testing the water with web drama and I hope she can venture into major broadcast this same year. Also here for the height difference (I wanna see how I'm gonna look like if my height is dating a model haha)

[lilmissniza.livejournal.com]

Will they have Dara in crazy high heels in every scene with that model oppa? Then again, they did 'It Hurts' with LSH and the height difference was kinda ... interesting, during her hug scene.

Also, I didn't know Omona has something against KYK? Maybe I missed it ... haha!

[lydz19.livejournal.com]

Dude has said before he doesn't like "ugly people" and "women with thick legs". He is a douche

[piqapique.livejournal.com]

I bet they will, KYK is way taller than lee soo hyuk and his build is very big.

He is quite a douche and made body shaming statement twice but other than that he is pretty okay. His acting is good although sometimes mid way of his acting I got reminded by his douchey statement and it spoiled my drama experience :/

[2ne3rd.livejournal.com]

Joining the chorus of FINALLY!!!! damn how did it take this long?
I think Dara will do alright, just as long as they don't ask her to go out of her comfort zone. Eccentric type is perfect for her.

[punkylana.livejournal.com]

YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[lydz19.livejournal.com]

Good luck to her
Now she will have to prove that she can actually act. This can be either a good start for her or Knetz will start ripping her apart.

[seroquels.livejournal.com]

Yay! Congrats!

[audiograms.livejournal.com]

I'm so happy for her, I know she's going to be awesome at it.

[atopworld.livejournal.com]

[smilez4you.livejournal.com]

[vanhangels.livejournal.com]

Hey op, there's a sandara park tag. :)

Anyways, finally! Lol. And she gets to do it with a good looking, young actor. Hahahaha, she must be super happy.

[adlyeith.livejournal.com]

Oh, is there? Thanks! I'll edit that :3

[magicpineapple.livejournal.com]
