대한민국 정상급 여배우 윤여정 김자옥 김희애와 막내 이미연이 함께 하는 ‘배낭여행 프로젝트’ 2탄이 행선지가 결정됐다. 유럽 최고의 휴양지 크로아티아다.
케이블 채널 tvN은 “‘배낭여행 프로젝트 2탄’의 여행지가 크로아티아로 확정됐다”고 21일 밝혔다.
프로그램을 연출하고 있는 나영석 PD는 크로아티아를 여배우 특집의 행선지로 결정한 것에 대해 “‘꽃보다 할배’의 첫 여행지였던 서유럽 일대와는 또 다른 매력을 지니고 있는 동유럽의 정취를 소개하고 싶었다”고 밝혔다.
최근 크로아티아로 답사를 마치고 돌아온 나 PD는 “국내에 잘 알려져 있지 않아 이국적 색채가 강렬하게 느껴지고, 아름다운 자연 경관, 다양한 문화 유산이 공존해 여배우들의 낭만적인 여행지로 적격이라는 생각이다”고 덧붙였다.
그러면서 “배우들과 이승기 씨의 조합이 흥미로운 화학작용을 불러 일으킬 것으로 기대된다. 볼거리가 풍성한 프로그램을 준비해 돌아오겠다”고 소감을 밝혔다.
오는 11월 말 방송을 앞두고 있는 ‘여배우 특집(가제)’은 국내 최정상급 여배우 4명과 짐꾼 이승기와 함께 11월 초 여행지로 출발할 예정이다. (고승희 기자)

Lee Seung-gi to visit Croatia with veteran actresses
By Cha Yo-rim
Entertainer Lee Seung-gi is heading to Croatia for tvN’s “Backpacking Project Part 2, Actress Special.” Lee is once again joining producer Na Young-suk after leaving talk show “Strong Heart” in April of 2012.
The program is considered the second season of “Grandpas Over Flowers,” which followed veteran actors Lee Shin-goo, Park Geun-hyung, Baek Il-seob, and Lee Soon-jae on trips led by actor Lee Seo-jin. The group traveled around Europe and then ended the season with a trip to Taiwan with a special guest appearance by Girls’ Generation member Sunny.
The four veteran actresses who replace the “grandpas” and join Lee Seung-gi include Yoon Yeo-jeong, Kim Ja-ok, Kim Hee-ae, and Lee Mi-yeon.
“Croatia isn’t very well-known in Korea. We believe that it’s a good place to visit with the actresses due to its strong colors, beautiful landscapes, and cultural heritage,” said producer Na after returning from an exploratory trip to the country.
Filming for the show will begin early November while the full program will start airing later in the month.
