Time Slip Dr. Jin mired in lawsuits, moves up premiere
by girlfriday
What is WITH this drama and the drama? I know we joked that Song Seung-heon was running about making demands that his drama Time Slip Dr. Jin make it on the air before the similarly-themed Faith stole any of its time-traveling thunder. (And here I am screaming, THAT SHIP’S ALREADY SAILED and its name was Operation Rooftop Queen.) But now the production is in the thick of not one, but two lawsuits.
Lawsuit 1: Dr. Jin is suing Faith for plagiarism. Its argument is that Faith is plagiarizing the Goryeo-era time-traveling doctor bit right out of their script, for which Dr. Jin has very clear source material–the Japanese manga of the same name. I can see why they’re up in arms about it, since Faith didn’t reveal its time travel storyline until very recently, when the casting was in place. But uh… Faith has been in pre-production for YEARS, and with an A-list writer like Song Ji-nah (Sandglass, Legend) penning the script, I can’t imagine this case will hold any water in the end.
Lawsuit 2: Time Slip (Yigim Pictures) is being sued for THEIR writer, Han Ji-hoon (Road No. 1, Time Between Dog and Wolf), by production company Apple Tree Pictures. Apple is arguing that Han is a staff writer for them, and is breaching contract by penning a script for Yigim.
And then in the midst of all that behind-the-scenes drama, the production has decided to premiere SOONER. (Is it possible that all the time-travel drama has gone to their heads?) Maybe it’s an attempt to get it on the air before their writer gets yanked off the production due to legal battles. In any case, now Dr. Jin is set to air against Jang Dong-gun‘s upcoming drama, A Gentleman’s Dignity. Talk about gunning for top dog. I guess they decided to hell with story, let’s just go hottie for hottie.
So now Time Slip Dr. Jin (MBC) and A Gentleman’s Dignity (SBS) both premiere May 26. Let the battle of the Hottest 90s Oppa begin. *grabs popcorn, busts out Last Match OST*

Still baffled at how they pushed up the premiere date... Hopefully, they'll still be able to do a good job?
I can't help but be more excited for JDG's drama though. It's been far too long since he's been on TV!

Time Slip Dr. Jin is based on a Japanese manga. The Lee Kim Productions bought the rights to air a new version in Korea. Faith has been in production for years, as a sageuk doctor story. It wasn't until recently that the Faith writers added the time traveling part, so it went from a doctor in the past, to a story about a future doctor going back in time. Coincidence? You can see how a company that paid a lot of money to buy the original story rather than just make a similar copy, will be majorly ticked off.

Thanks for taking the time to explain, but I was also aware of this. I understand from a business point of view, but it doesn't change the fact that Time Slip Dr. Jin is plagued with a lot of issues, including these various law suits. It just makes me think that it'll be very difficult to pull through, since the premiere date is so close (May 26) and Dr. Jin doesn't even have a heroine yet.
Anyway, hopefully they'll do a good job.

If they make good use of history the way the original version did, maybe the writing will go a little smoother and faster? The historical conflicts in the original were what made the drama for me because they gave it stakes that really seemed to matter. That and some of the philosophical points Jin had to struggle with really helped elevate the romance thing too.

Who is the heroine?
Hotties here and hotties there but there are no ladies anywhere?
Think about which dramas you liked, loved and loathed...If the lady lead does NOT pull you in, (since that is who WE usually identify with) the drama usually isn't compelling.
If THT and JaeJoong are fighting over a weaksauce actress, I wouldn't be as interested in watching with the sound on...
They have a lead for GD, right?

Those lawsuits for plagiarism would make me laugh if it didn't have consequences for a lot of people. All the writers in dramaland get inspiration from the work of the others. Copying is the norm. Writing something new is the exception. I'm gonna use the time machine, find the first piggyback of K drama history, claim property, and swim in a pool full of 10000 won banknotes...
And anyway, i will watch all the dramas listed, and will make fun of the failed one(s). Give me a bit of that popcorn GF.

And what is with all the time-warping kdramas in kdramaland now?! I mean, once in a while, I could deal with it, but having 4-5 dramas with that same plot would make me barf at the stories no matter who star in it. (Sorry LMH and SSH, I love you and all, but...)
At this point, I would probably wait for Gentleman's Dignity for the most obvious reasons. You have THE Jang Dong Gun right there.

lol for the first lawsuit it has already been cleared up. It has been concluded that although both drama's have doctors that travel back into the past........the plot, characters, and storyline are both completely different.
So that was that.
The new lawsuit..............seriously? How can a WRITER not check with their company before signing on a project. It's the writer's fault not the other drama production companies. So the writer should be sued not the company....
And really we have no other info about this drama yet....like pictures from filming on location...or female leads.....or script-reading sessions......
Do they even have a plan together? I hope if they don't that JJ drops this drama......cause I don't want him working in a mess....even if its with SSH.
*sighs* so much drama again. Why do all of JJ's drama's have to go through this! Why?

...I'm going to bet this wrong:
OT: Kkotnam Obso
OT: An Absence of Flower Boys
It would have to be a daily to encompass our vast company of characters, and it would be a combined work/home show because each character would have to be shown in the various ways she interacts with OT, which for most of us is both at work and at home. The central theme would be the humor inherent in our relatively calm and mature 'actual' lives, where we often have challenging work as well as families to deal with contrasted with our rather more bawdy, free-wheeling selves here. And then of course there'd be the all the stuff with the constant cultural education we get from each other and from dramas, as well as the generational range - I think we cover pretty much everything from 18 to 50 or so here.

Title:
"Your Average Noona"
First episode:
While sipping her morning coffee, she decides whether to add French Vanilla or Irish Cream to her coffee, and has a bowl of cereal. Then she slips on a pair of nondescript low-heel pumps to match her grey dress, and drives the speed limit to her job as a adminstrative assistant where she answers the phone and completes paperwork.
At lunch, she opens a bento box containing a ham and cheese sandwich and a carton of fat-free milk.
After lunch, she continues her typing and filing until the end of her work day. Picking up her small beige bag, she walks to her car, gets in, turns on the radio to NPR, and carefully drives home.
Once home, she kicks off her shoes and curls up on the couch with a glass of cognac and a Veronica Roth novel, until it's time for the news on TV. Then, teeth brushed and hair in a simple braid, she slides between her cotton sheets and falls asleep to the sound of...silence.
And so it continues until Friday...

OOR ooooooor. Do a Big/Dr.Jin mashup where Lee Min Ho goes into the past and has swapped bodies with past guy (SSH) and is now falling in love with past-heroine all while discovering the ways of past medicine. Then we have past guy in Lee Min Ho's body discovering modern medicine and mini-skirts in the future! :D LOL...did I just create another lawsuit? >_< My bad.

Really looking forward to Dr. Jin over the JDG drama. The Japanese version of Jin was majorly awesome, so I have high hopes for the Kdrama one since budgets are usually bigger and they can spend more on production. Regarding Faith, I'd probably watch it more for the cast, whereas Dr. Jin, I'll watch it more for the story.

I loved the Japanese version as well. If I watch the Korean version I may have to pretend it's completely unrelated to the Japanese. What I loved most with original drama was how the history wove into the story. The Bakumatsu period is so rich with conflict, and I really loved how some historical figures were used-- especially Sakamoto Ryooma! I know there was a lot of conflict in Korea in the period the drama will be set, but.... Dunno.

1. Whichever drama bares the first chest wins.
2. Whichever drama gives us the hottest, most-est, real kisses wins.
or
3. Don't hold your breath that either drama will rise above the usual fare. 2012 seems to be the year of the Same-Slop-Different-Year-and-Title-Dramas, which means we will have wasted two hot guys on two mediocre dramas.

I think Dr. Towel Slip will get that first prize, but JDG, the second...
Did THT ever have a heart stopping kiss in EoE? I never got to where HE was the instigator.

Gag Concert is at the same time slot on KBS if I am not wrong. The ratings are not gonna be pretty.

Jaejoong, why don't you star in a movie or something, this looks like a mess.
I had high hopes for this drama being a success (I liked the Japanese version a lot) but if they are seriously going to air this against Gentleman's dignity and Gag concert, they are loco.

Jang Dong-gun is ridiculously good looking. Like Handsome and Dark good looking. I'd pick him over Song anyday - looks wise that is. Acting wise we know the heavens have been kinder to Jang Dong-gun. Heh. XD

Somehow I'm going to bet on Jang Dong Gun's drama more than Dr. Jin. Coz if I want to watch a drama now it would be JDG's and just get my doze of time traveling on Lee Min Ho's Faith. kekeke

Seriously wouldn't bother with Time slip if jaejoong wasn't in it. I have a feeling though that GD will reign the ratings game. I will still watch the former though.

The only reason that I will check out Time slip because I love j-version so much... I really hope that it is not going to bad...
I will probably watch GD cos i love all 4 leads.. not a big fan of KHN.. but at least GD has a female lead.. and time slip did not even have heroine yet... and please be someone good...

HAHAHAHAH Hottest 90s oppa. At least I can recognise Jang dong gun, after the 5 year gap I totally could not recognise hand towel. Also because I didn't make the effort to remember the names of the actors in primary school.
