Page One renamed Coffee House

Share |


Drama PD Pyo Min-soo’s upcoming series has a new name, ditching the working title Page One for a new one: Coffee House.


Personally, I think Page One was more suited to the drama’s content, as the story stars Kang Ji-hwan as a bestselling star novelist and Park Shi-yeon as the head of a publishing company. It seems they are trying to capitalize on brand recognition, however, by linking this drama to the director’s 2004 hit Full House (which also featured a writer, albeit a struggling one). Coffee House will be set in “Cafe Page One,” tying in the old title.


This sorta-kinda-almost makes Coffee House the second entry in a “House” themed series of dramas. The two shows don’t seem to have any meaningful connection to each other aside from the title, rather like the “Lovers” trio (Lovers in Paris, Lovers in Prague, Lovers) and the “Season” dramas (Autumn Fairy Tale, Winter Sonata, Spring Waltz, Summer Scent). In fact, I’m hoping that Coffee House will feel more like PD Pyo’s later dramas (The World They Live In, Insoon Is Pretty) than Full House.


Following Kang Ji-hwan’s casting earlier this month, his ex-management company, with whom the actor has been entangled in breach-of-contract disputes, had come out to say that their issues had not been settled. The production, on the other hand, felt that matters had reached enough of a conclusion to cast Kang anyway, confident that he would be ready to begin filming as soon as this month.


A third lead role had been rumored to be going to T-ara singer Ham Eun-jung, but the production has dispelled those claims, saying she is still only one of three contenders. Those three actresses will all go through script readings before a final decision is made, and the final cast list will be announced next week.


The romantic-comedy series comes from writer Song Jae-jung of sitcoms Soonpoong Clinic and Unstoppable High Kick, and will begin filming on April 21. It will follow SBS’s Oh My Lady.
