Cheese in the Trap casts Nam Joo-hyuk, delays broadcast
by girlfriday
It looks like we’ll have to wait two more drama cycles to see webtoon adaptation Cheese in the Trap on the air — tvN originally had the show slated for an October broadcast, but has decided to push the premiere until December (or early January of next year). Lee Dong-wook and Jung Ryeo-won’s Bubblegum will take the timeslot instead, which certainly makes me wonder if all of the casting hullabaloo for Cheese in the Trap’s heroine has put the show at a disadvantage from the start.
The series has confirmed Park Hae-jin (Doctor Stranger) and Kim Go-eun (Memories of the Sword) to headline, and has just added Nam Joo-hyuk (Who Are You—School 2015) as a rival for Kim Go-eun’s affections. He’ll play Kwon Eun-taek, a university hoobae who’s a cute, doting younger man. He’s described as a bit of an oddball, but has a surprisingly dependable and manly side.
I get why they cast him, since he obviously looks the part. I just hope he’s improved his acting by then, because this webtoon seems to have quite the rabid fanbase that’s very protective of the original work. Nam Joo-hyuk is sweet and likable, but he’s also shown a lot of limitations as a leading man; hopefully in a smaller role he’ll be a better fit.
Hey, with Park Hae-jin being the perfect hero, maybe Nam Joo-hyuk can be the sweet puppy on the sidelines and pull a Yook Sung-jae on us. His School 2015 costar Yook Sung-jae has repeatedly expressed his interest in being cast in Cheese in the Trap, though in a different role, thank goodness — I don’t think I could take them fighting over something else.
Cheese in the Trap will air on Mondays and Tuesdays in late December or early January on tvN.

Eun Taek won't be a love competition to the hero nor to anyone according to the webtoon (except Young Gon, but that's pretty small one). So he won't compete for Kim Go Eun's heart lol, rather Eun Taek likes Hong Sul's friend Bora.

In the webtoon... but the drama adaptation could throw in all the usual tropes and stock characters, which is exactly why I'm beginning to get wary – their "test-casting" of Suzy and now this casting Nam Joo-huyk aren't helping. I don't get the impression they approaching this in terms of making a solid, high-quality adaptation of a webtoon that understands that source material isn't a typical drama with the typical characters.

I hope they don't. I think that they could really make a cute side storyline with him and Bora. Plus I don't see how him being another interest could add to the story.

I hope they do keep Eun Teak/Bora because while I like the webtoon a lot it is a bit slice of life which isn't a kdrama strength. Their loveline would help pad out the current day plot.

Exactly! Eun-taek is adorkable (though I picture him as more manly than Nam Joo-hyuk) but he isn't fit to be Sul's love interest. Indeed, that wouldn't bring anything to the story, and it would rather limit its originality.
He's perfect as Sul's male friend, which is pretty refreshing given the common rom-com landscape, so let's not take this road.
Argh, does that mean we won't have a Baek In-ho? He's the only love interest I'd accept to compete with Jung...*rocks back and forth in a corner*

it might happen, but i really hope not.
i love the webtoon, but the problem with it is that its conflicts and all are hard to transpose into a drama. it makes for awesome serialized reading, but to bring across these slice of life events that inform our characters' behaviour will be extremely hard.
it needs a writer that is extremely competent to handle the large cast of characters that makes up Cheese In The Trap. it's perhaps similar to Misaeng in that sense. very slice of life, characters with distinct traits etc... but I remember the drama writer said that the source material had a weaker structure, and it had to be reworked.
Cheese is probably gonna be like that. what complicates it further is that it has rom-com elements, making it very easy for reporters/viewers to immediately categorize it under rom com! fighting for affections! etc. and for a station/writer to set it up using the usual k-drama structure. Plus, won't be a stretch to think that tvN will hope for CITT to do as well as Misaeng - leading to the test castings, delays, heavy media play.
tldr; drama, please work out well. the last drama i had expectations for rly burned me. big fan of CITT, so i might be hecka biased but I really, really want it to do well.

A good writer is a must of course.
I firmly believe that Misaeng did well because it did pretty much everything that most kdramas don't normally do.
Added, typical love triangles and remaking it into a rom-com rather than slice of life is not going to do it.

Yeah, despite all the hullaboo over casting so far I'm more worried about the writing tbh. Aside from all the stuff you mentioned I'm wondering how they're going to handle the flashbacks. Maybe instead of the webtoon's black/white background use a different filter for present/past scenes?

August 3, 2015 at 9:32 AM
To make the drama work it might be best to do away with the flashbacks to the previous year and make it linear.
Hint at Sul not knowing the full story then skip to her going to back to school. Time jumps after the first two episodes aren't unheard of

August 3, 2015 at 6:53 PM
Yeah, I feel like they're going to do that. Otherwise, it might get too messy with the extended flashbacks. I can't see that working too well in drama form.
Making it linear would remove a lot of the suspense surrounding Yoo Jung though. A lot of the fun of reading the webtoon is never being sure about his intentions regarding Sul. And it won't have the same effect when revealing his past either. But oh well.
Cadash
August 4, 2015 at 2:26 AM
@modern-cannibal
I think the writing could still make Yoo Jung 's motivations suspicious especially if they keep the childhood flashbacks and only have Sul do voice overs.

August 3, 2015 at 11:01 AM
Lol... They wouldn't... That would involve changing way too many things and erase the insight we get on Bora's personality and motivations. And besides, there's already Baek In-Ho to be the other love interest for Sul.
That aside, I'm cool with Nam Joo Hyuk being cast as Eun-Taek. He has the height and the cute. I think I'll like him more as a supporting character.
Aaaand I'm sad about Cheese being delayed but it was kind of expected since they had to adjust things to Kim Go-Eun's schedule. So.

I actually just started reading this comic and got all caught up with the English translations yesterday. Such a great story, I'm not surprised by the rabid reaction to castings, etc. I actually have no problem with them pushing back the air date if the payoff is Kim Go-eun: I really do think she'll be perfect for the role.
Eun-taek is one of my favorite characters, and considering I was one of the few people who actually loved School 2015, I'm excited by this news!! Now I just wanna know who's going to get the TRUE rival role - Inho Baek! That is going to require some interesting casting since he's such a complex/fun character.

Thank goodness the role is a small one, it sounds a bit like his Surplus Princess role and he was ok there. But yeah, this kid should not even go near lead roles/main love interest roles for a while now. Especially not when there are more talented costars in the mix.
as for the casting outcry, it prevented the horror of seeing Suzy as Sul and didn't ultimately prevent an actress of far, far greater talents from being cast so there's no harm done. Now if only they do a good job of the script........ I hope the delay helps them get their act together there.

If they're calling him a love interest does that mean they're changing the story already?
In the webtoon Eun Taek is a friend of Sul's but he has a long standing crush on their mutual friend Bora.
And he's really more of a background character.

I saw someone recommend him and think this is actually a good role for him! I'm happy he got it and also happy he went back into work in a smaller role. I think that shows he's serious since I believe he is also disappointed in his stint as a leading man. Nevertheless, I really like the kid. Hope he reads the source material. Moment of silence for my own personal pick Eun Taek - Lee Tae Hwan, though. Because cry. I would have LOVED to see that. I need to be his manager. I could have got him that part on his looks alone, ppshhh~ easy.
Don't mind the longer wait if it means they want to put their all into the writing. Hopefully the cast can take a break until then and the writer can focus more. I have a feeling they won't mind. And I also don't mind Bubblegum being pushed up, either. Though, I do think maybe the push-back is because they are trying to fill the pivotal roles of Bek In Ho and In Ha, the siblings. I'm most curious about that casting as well. I'm guessing Yook Sungjae wants to play Sul's slacker younger brother, maybe? He'd be a good fit; that's another small role.

All this 'Bora' talk makes me think they should just cast Bora (from Sistar) for the role lol. I thought she was decent in Doctor Stranger and I can see her looking fantastic with NJH. But then again, there are so many more deserving young actresses out there.
I really really liked NJH in School. Personally, I was in the Yi-ahn ship so as much as he's limited as an actor, he's always managed to remain charming. Hopefully he improves a lot in this drama.

I actually don't mind them pushing it back since it gives them more time to prepare. I'd rather have a drama delayed than premier too early and have the frantic scrambling visibly affect quality.
Nam Joo-hyuk fits Eun-taek's part pretty well, actually--aside from the visuals the character is likeable and not that hard to play. Yook Sung-jae would fit younger brother Hong Joon's role too. I'd also like to see Shin Hye-sun (Chef's sister Eun-hee in Oh My Ghost) as Ah-young. No idea who'd be good for In-ho and In-ha though. Possibly Lee El as In-ha?

Yook Sung Jae against Park Hae Jin? The image doesn't match whatsoever. In ho is about the same age as the main guy. Sungjae looks like a total kid still. He'd probably fit more as Sul's brother. But I guess Sungjae is too popular these days to play a little brother :D

Ok yes, I agree with you that he doesn't seem like a good match against Park Hae Jin, but I think that is more a facet of Park Hae Jin being kinda too old for this role. I still think Yook Sung Jae would be great as In Ho, and I think him as In Ho is a more appropriate casting then PHJ as Yoo Jung. To be honest, I'd rather they cast a character that didn't seem charismatic enough to rival PHJ then see them cast another actor that's too old for the role.
To be fair, maybe I'm not giving Park Hae Jin enough credit. Maybe he'll really be able to pull it off. He seems like a pretty good actor. But I'll just have to wait and see, because for now, I remain skeptical.

Hmm, she ascends as the prettiest after the bully girl is gone (if I'm not wrong) so she should be quite a looker. Ga Eun is too bland for Eun Sul. Maybe she will better fit as Min Sook. Min Sook is also more complicated and challenging than Eun Sul although of course Eun Sul is more likeable, she's the main character after all.

I think that's kind of unfair. Teenagers are capable of appreciating sensitive and nuanced portrayals of people in media. It's why movies and books like The Fault In Our Stars and Paper Towns are so popular with teens. Yes, teenagers also probably want to watch stuff that is just cheesy, romance idol dramas, but it's not the ONLY thing they want to watch. Just because someone is young doesn't mean they aren't intelligent or thoughtful. What most teenagers, what most people, want to see are characters like themselves, and that they can relate to.
And anyway, I don't know if this discussion is relevant. I don't think they intend to market this show for the teen audience only.

It might sounds shallow but I wholeheartedly agree with this. Dramas are guilty pleasure just like romance movies where sometimes the most important things people care about are the leads and the story second. It's a given the casts supposed to be eye candy especially if it caters young audience. Heck even woman in her mid 30s or 40s wouldn't object a hot guy being cast or else how Brad Pitt still has his career?
Yeah, the story is actually most important since the casts can't save the drama if they're given a shitty script but at least it will be better watching visual leads with shitty script than not so visual leads with shitty script.

Brad Pitt can act, though.
There is no Hollywood equivalent of the likes of Suzy or Han Ga In - even Angelina Jolie and Scarlett Johansson, commonly acknowledged as the hottest women in lead roles right now, have an Oscar and a Tony.
Hollywood is not perfect, but I will say this much for it, it does not hand prestigious and long-lasting careers to people with no acting talent. Someone at Suzy's level would have been banished to Lifetime movies long ago no matter how gorgeous she was.

Wow, Joo Hyuk as Eun Taek is so suitable. I don't think it's difficult playing Eun Taek since he's not complicated and showing poker face most of the time so I hope he won't let me down this time.
I don't want to be accused as racist but is In Ho supposed to be half Asian half Caucasian? I know looks aren't everything but when the character is played by different ethnic while their 'foreignness' is shoved on your face like in every chapter about In Ho & In Ha, I will feel something is missing if let's say Kim Woo Bin played the role.

I can see NJH as EunTaek since he's capable playing quiet and this character doesn't need to be 'acted' much.
Baek InHa & InHo ... now that'll be interesting. I'm curious who they will cast.
In the first place they have clear physical traits; both are tall, gorgeous, looks like foreigners and can curse like bosses.
I just wish the webtoon will wrap up before the drama airs tho'.

Joo-hyuk would actually work as Eun-taek, I think. He'd basically play a sweet and nice kid.
It's kinda a far stretch but if not Woo-bin as In-ho... perhaps Lee Hongki? :/ Kid's basically blonde most of the time anyway and he can do fast-talking scoundrel / grouchy misunderstood loner too. At first I thought Kim Ji-won for In-ha but she's too young.
I hope that Yook Sungjae does get cast as Joon-- and Min Do-hee as Ah-young, maybe?

We already have a love triangle in the webtoon between the main three; Jung/Sul/Inho. I hope they leave Euntaek out of it since he really is out of it in the original work. sigh
