T. sapphire is a writer who found her love for the Hallyu wave after watching the historical drama âJumong.â She is mainly interested in Korean dramas and the history of Korea at large. Explore her pieces as she takes you on a journey through K-Drama recommendations and keeps you informed about the history of the Korean people.
Have you watched the Disney classic âFrozenâ? We are about to take it the K-Drama way again and trust me, you will love it!
Letâs do a little reminder: Frozen tells the story of Elsa, a queen with ice powers, who accidentally freezes her kingdom and flees. Her sister Anna sets out to bring her back, joined by Kristoff, his reindeer Sven, and Olaf, a magical snowman. Through love and bravery, the sisters save their kingdom and mend their bond.
Â
The storyâs interesting, right? Letâs reimagine the 5 major characters as Korean celebrities. Leggo and you are about to be Starstruck.
For Elsa letâs pick Kim Tae Ri from Twenty-five Twenty-one. She perfectly embodies Elsa's grace and inner turmoil. Like Elsa, who struggles to control her ice powers while carrying the burden of leadership, Kim Tae Riâs character in the drama often faces deep emotional conflicts because of her fencing career, family issues and even love life. Perfect choice, right?
Wanna see Kim Tae Ri and Kim Se Jeong in the same drama? If directors wonât do that for us, I have got you. Let Kim Se Jeong be our Anna because in the Business Proposal, she gave us chaotic, bubbly energy, just like Anna, who probably wakes up every day singing âDo You Want to Build a Snowman?â Her determination in the series to take on the CEOâs love matches that of Annaâs and sincerely, if anyone could convince an ice queen to come home, itâs her.
You were expecting that, were you not? Who better fit for the role of Kristoff if not Ahn Yeo Seop? I mean In Business Proposal (yes, again), he was a cinnamon roll pretending to be tough, and letâs not forget his amazing ability to look confused, and that's Kristoff's energy right there. If you need someone to lug an ice block and accidentally fall in love with Anna, Hyo Seopâs your man.
Letâs face it! Hans is handsome, charming, and totally sus and Rowoon is nothing less than that. He just has this leading-man look and ability to throw in a sneaky smirk, as seen in Extraordinary You. Plus, youâd forgive him even after he leaves Anna to freeze because have you seen Rowoon smile? Evil never looked this handsome, you bet!
You probably donât know who Yoo Jae Suk is if you are not into Korean comedy. He is a comedian, host and television personality. However, if you know him, you will agree with me that he will embody the role of Olaf perfectly. This man has mastered the art of being hilariously clueless while dropping gems of wisdom, and thatâs just Olafâs entire personality, isnât it? So we have our Olaf right there!
This Frozen K-Drama cast just gave you the perfect K-Drama vibes, right? Was there any character I missed and which Disney Movie casting would you prefer I do next?
