5urprise hosted a press conference

5urprise is a rookie male group. Yet, it is totally different from the other K-Pop boy groups.

The group has launched itself as an actor’s party.

On August 27, 5urprise hosted a press conference for the dramatoon After School Bokbulbok with director Jung Jung Hwa and actress Kim So Eun.

Member Yoo Il stated, “You can define us as a group of newbie actors. Just as many idols start off with dance and song and ends up acting, we are planning an opposite way and initiate with acting to later head for dance and song.”

5urprise is the initial group of actors to be launched by Fantagio, which is consisted of prominent actors such as Ha Jung Woo, Ju Jin Mo and Yeom Jeong Ah. Its members were chosen through Fantagio′s ′Actor′s League′, a program it hosts to attract talents in acting.

The members have been training for about two years, and at last will be debuting with After School Bokbulbok.

Yoo Il commented regarding the group′s future, “As musicians and their albums, we are currently consideringAfter School Bokbulbok to be our initial project. We are currently preparing for our second and third projects also. We aim to release an album, and we will not be hesitant to receive individual offers either.”

After School Bokbulbok is about five members of a school club, played by each one of 5urprise, and a beautiful outcast named Kim So Eun, characterized by the actress of same name. So Eun will happen to find herself becoming the leader of the school club, and work on building a loyal friendship and even love relationship with the other five male members.

5urprise member Seo Kang Joon will make appearance as the original leader of the group with the same name, while Lee Tae Hwan will be a clever member Han Jae Hee. The rest of the members will take up roles with the same name as their real names, with Yoo Il playing the most handsome member, Gong Myung the most emotional and Kang Tae Oh the fittest.

The dramatoon is made up of 12 15-minute episodes, and can be viewed through smartphones and tablet PCs. Its first episode is to air on September 2 through Nate Hoppin, T Store and Btv.
