I'm happy about both these things. Since the web-toon moves at a slice-of-life pace I think the PD will do a good job. Though, I always laugh at the description for this comic because it's quite misleading.

Anyway, I'm sure they'll be talking with the creator to hopefully come to a way in which to make a conclusion from an ongoing comic. I'm sure many of the more interesting arcs and characters can fit into a 20 episode drama just fine. As well as the romance and over-all mystery.

I'm glad this went to tvN, I feel like the general aesthetics and feel of cable suit CITT much better than the watering down that broadcast would likely try to force.

now I really hope they adapt right, and get a decent cast, especially Hong Sul (they need an actually decent actress, not someone whose fans are still making excuses for their bad acting several years/projects down the line).

And Park Hae-jin's quite a bit older than the webtoon character, I wonder if they'll cast someone closer to his age or just stick with the early 20s like the webtoon version of Sul.

Sigh. I'm approaching 30... and I'm still trying to find my foothold into adulthood. It's difficult figuring HOW to grow up. :(

Totally digging these slice-of-life dramas coming out.

Happy tvn Got teh drama,love almost all their shows adn can't wait for Park Hae Jin's take on such a complex and quite dark character as Yoo Jung,i'm no worryed because i know he'll nail it but teh anticipation is still there!Now let's see who will be our heroine and InHo
Maybe teh story is not everybody cup of tea but i really hope the writer/director will not change for the sake of it teh original characters of our main,Yoo Jung done right might be one of the most compelx characters in dramaland in a long time and being teh hero of teh story even more,with such a complex character and my opinion slighlty(god a lot)sociopatic part as well

Been hearing the buzz about this adaptation and that PHJ confirmed the role. Planning to check out the webtoon before this airs. Glad tvN picked it up.

Word JB! Real world is indeed a bitch !

Hope this is lighter than Misaeng. I never could make myself give it even a chance. I see corporate life everyday, thank you very much. ?

I love, love the webtoon and really hope they don't screw this one up. The Coffee Prince PD seems like a good fit, and Park Hae-jin looks really good for Yoo Jung as well. I do hope they keep the dark complexity of the webtoon and don't fluff it up completely - a lot of the characters are almost twisted, and they all go through character development.

I'm so happy about this! With tvN and this director on board, I actually feel like this adaptation is in pretty good hands.

I'm still super nervous about it though. It all comes down to Hong-sul. It's her voice that guides you through the webtoon and it's her social commentary that really draws you in. It's crucial that they cast the kind of actress that can nail the character. I, myself, have had a hard time thinking of a perfect fit for her character. Park Hae-jin for Yoojung though? Perfect fit!

Also, like others, I'm hoping against hope that they don't simplify the complexity with which the characters are presented. Probably the most riveting thing about this webtoon is the way everything unfolds and I want them to be fairly strict about keeping the past events shrouded in mystery, only to unveil them slowly so that they coincide with the events of the present storyline. This drama is gonna need some damn near perfect execution in order to have the same effect on me as the webtoon.

They should cast Jinwoon as Inho >:) something like his dream high 2 (blech) character. He's about all I can think of, but new blood would be nice too

And with this pd, comes great ost and bgm. The music in coffee prince and heart to heart had a life of its own. Now I'm hoping they'll cast a well suited Seol Hong. Kim ji won? Jung so min? Lee yu bi (tho she's occupied)? Park shin hye will bring a big buzz though I'd prefer her to do a rom-com. Please, please cast her part well.

Kim Seulgi as Sul?

I'm a big fan of the webtoon for years and it's sort of exciting to hear it's being made into a kdrama. Though I do have mixed feelings, because some of the manhwas-turned-into-dramas I've seen weren't really good or stayed true to the original material. And this is one manhwa I want to see them do right, because it is one I've really treasured and looked forward to updates from my years in college till now.

As far as the lead actors are concerned, I'm just happy that the lead actor for Jung (the suspiciously perfect sunbae) is someone who both looks just like the character and who's reputed to having the acting skill. The thing that worries me the most about this is that they casted the male romantic lead before the female protagonist. I hope it doesn't become another Orange Marmalade, where the male lead is given the focus. Cheese in Trap is primarily her story, told through her eyes. Hong Sul is the heart of the story, everything hinges on seeing it from her perspective. If you change the perspective, you change the whole story.

Anyway, if I got to choose who would play Hong Sul, I would choose Park Bo Young. Her looks remind me a lot of Sul in the right light and her acting skill is top notch. However, I've heard that she's playing in the k-drama "Oh My Ghostess" soon, not to mention the new movie where she gets sent to a girl's boarding school. So maybe her schedule is already booked. But still, I can dream. She'd be my ideal for the spot, because I have no doubt she'll pull it off.

Would love to see a reunion of Park Hae Jin with Kang Sora in this tvN webtoon adaptation drama.

Chun Woo Hee as Hong Sul! She's perfect as her image and acting skill wise

I'm psyched about this. I hope the music will be just as good as Coffee Prince and Heart to Heart. Those are my 2 favorite OSTs ever. Low End Project and Tearliner please!

When I think of webtoon adaptation actress I just auto switch on Kang Sora (as in Misaeng). I know she has good chemistry with Park Hae Jin before. But not sure if she is suitable for Hong Sul role.

It sure will be great if it really a pure adaptation of the webtoon. Just.. don't make any crap like the adaptation (or not) of Orange Marmalade, jaebal !
