Actress Park Min-young will be starring in a new music drama by Japanese singer and actor Nissy (Nishijima Takahiro).

Park Min-young‘s appearance was revealed through the trailer video for Nissy’s new music drama for his nationwide six-dome tour, which was released in Japan on the 16th (today). In the music video trailer, Park Min-young stole the spotlight with her passionate acting, sometimes appearing lovely and sometimes shedding tears. Park Min-young also garnered attention by acting in Korean, saying things like “I wish this moment could last forever” and “Is there a magic where I can be with you like this?” to Nissy, fully playing the role of a Korean language evangelist in Japan.

In particular, the meeting between Park Min-young and Nissy was made possible by Nissy‘s suggestion, making it even more meaningful. The two people of the same age spoke different languages, but they were considerate of each other from the first filming and showed immersive acting chemistry.

Nissy is a singer and actor who debuted in 2005 and swept the rookie awards at various award ceremonies in Japan. After leaving the group for a solo career in 2013, in 2019 he completed a nationwide 4-dome tour with sold-out tickets, becoming the youngest Japanese male solo artist to do so. In 2022, he became the second solo artist to sell out all tickets for a 6-dome tour, and from November 2024, he will embark on his second nationwide 6-dome tour, the first for a Japanese solo artist. He will also reveal the full story of the music drama with Park Min-young. The new music drama featuring Park Min-young was directed by Shigeaki Kubo, who is famous for directing works and films for numerous artists including EXILE, Namie Amuro, and DREAMS COME TRUE.



After the release of the music video trailer, Japanese fans said, “Nissi and Min-young’s acting chemistry has come true! Thank you!” “Park Min-young as the heroine? I can‘t believe it!” English: “I’m so happy!” “Min Young-nim is in a Japanese music video, it’s beyond my imagination, I’m going to get fan meeting tickets right now!” “She’s such a top actress… she’s on a whole other level,” etc., and they are responding with great surprise and happiness.

Meanwhile, after the end of tvN’s Monday-Tuesday drama ‘Marry My Husband’, Park Min-young proved her explosive popularity by selling out all tickets for her fan meetings in Tokyo and Osaka, Japan in March. In addition to appearing in this music video, she will be holding a Japanese fan club founding ceremony ‘Hello Japan Beans’ at Tokyo NHK Hall on November 8. She will have time to personally meet and communicate with fans who applied for the fan club recruitment currently underway in Japan.

Hook Entertainment, her agency, said, “Park Min-young’s popularity in Japan has been explosively increasing since ‘Marry My Husband’. Many fans are also showing interest in the ongoing fan club recruitment,” he said. “The response has been enthusiastic since the surprise announcement of Park Min-young’s appearance in the new song’s music video through the trailer. Please continue to support Park Min-young’s various activities in the future.”
