New kdrama from PYH???

According to the Dramabeans' website, Park Yong ha will be joining a drama remake of a popular Chinese film, to be titled Comrades: Almost a Love Story. Main source of this news here (in Korean). Oh Soo-yeon of Winter Sonata and Autumn Love Story will pen the series, while Ji Young-soo of Oh! Pil Seung Bong Soon Young directs. Check out her site for more info.

I kind of share some of the commentors' misgivings about the series being turned into a melodrama, what with the former WS writer being involved. And like javabeans, I'm willing to give it a shot. After all, I did dredge through On Air just so I could watch PYH, so this shouldn't be any different.

The website also says filming starts in July. If that's the case, how about his concert series? I saw in Etsuko's blog somewhere that PYH has a bunch of concerts in Japan this June. Does the guy ever know how to take a break?
