A production press conference for the web drama "Secret Message," starring Korean rapper T.O.P., of BigBang, and Japanese actress Ueno Juri, was held at the Imperial Palace Hotel, Nonhyeon-dong, southern Seoul, today.


"Secret Message" is a joint Korean-Japanese production web drama, depicting a love story among young adults. T.O.P will play a Korean man Woo-hyun and Ueno Juri will feature a Japanese woman Haruka.

"It has been seven years since my last drama "Iris." I have tried my best with a strong sense of responsibility to show people how I have improved as an actor," said T.O.P. during the press conference. "Because I enjoyed Ueno Juri's dramas, I was very excited and was looking forward to meet her when I heard she was cast as my partner."

"I was worried a little bit about the language barrier before filming," said Juri. "However, I felt like there existed between me and T.O.P. a sort of telepathy, which made me focusing well on the filming, though I could not understand Korean."

"Secret Message" will be aired in 18 episodes and each episode runs for about 10 minutes. The first episode will premiere on next Monday at 8 p.m., via video streaming sites Naver TV Cast and LINE TV. After the first episode, the drama will air on the sites every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 10 a.m. for three weeks.

Meanwhile, the drama will air in Japan via Dtv, which is a Japan's biggest video streaming service site.
