Lee Seung Gi - Yoon Eun Hye – Kang Dong Won – Love Triangle
After the casting of YEH for the female lead role, KDW & LSG has verbally agreed to appear in “Lady Castle”.

According to the production team, the drama is a Korean version of the American drama, "Gossip Girl" which is about high society set in the Upper East side of New York. Apparently, the American drama has a strong following in Korea.

The Korean version is also about high society in Korea. YEH plays the 2nd daughter of 3, heiress to a huge fortune. It’s a fantasy about her relationship with her poor house steward, played by KDW and the son of a very wealthy family, played by LSG.

The article then went on about YEH’s track record of hits with “Gong” and “Coffee Shop Prince” and that the role in "Lady Castle" is tailor made for her; that KDW’s return to the small screen after 5 years, is going to capture the hearts of the female fans, and that through this drama, LSG shows his determination to become an actor.

After the script is completed in May, the production will begin casting for its characters of Go Eun-chan, Choi Han-gyul, and the rest. I wouldn’t get my hopes up for Yoon Eun-hye and Gong Yoo to reprise their roles but the producers aren’t ruling out that possibility, either. Both scenarios are possible: either the old cast will be invited to return or, barring that, they’ll cast with new actors.


Part of the drama Coffee Prince’s charm was its wonderful directing by Lee Yoon-jung, and with a different PD behind the camera, the end product may end up with a very different feel. Still, I’m excited nonetheless — I loved the drama and I thoroughly enjoyed reading the novel, and I certainly don’t need this movie to be a direct replica of the drama.

The production’s plan is to begin filming in October, and aim for a February 2010 release, with simultaneous premieres in Korea, Japan, China, and Southeast Asia.
