T-ara's Jiyeon and MBLAQ's Lee Joon will be trying out voice acting. Girls Generation's Taeyeon, Seohyun, Kara's Park Gyuri, Super Junior's Shindong are also participating in the voice dubbing for this animation. Their voices will be featured in the 3D animated movie 'Gnomeo and Juliet'. The English version is dubbed by James McAvoy and Emily Blunt.

This movie is about garden gnomes Gnomeo and Juliet who have as many obstacles to overcome as their quasi namesakes when they are caught up in a feud between both families as they fall in love (summary by Walt Disney pictures). This movie is directed by Kelly Asbury who also directed the worldwide box office sensation parody animation, 'Shrek 2'.

Nicknamed 'acting idols', Jiyeon and Lee Joon, play Juliet and Gnomeo respectively. Lee Joon is known for his appearance in the movie 'Ninja Assassin' as the role of young Rain (Jung Jihoon), Jiyeon was in drama 'God of Study', movie 'Death Bell 2', actively involved in acting for both dramas and movies.

Comedian Jung Juri plays Juliet's nanny who is a big-mouthed frog and is supportive of the two's love. Jung Juri expressed her thoughts about dubbing, "Lee Joon and Jiyeon are the perfect match as a comedy couple. I'm so envious of their chemistry together".

This movie will be out in theaters in April.
