[drama 2009] Tamra, The Island - 탐나는 도다

The drama is based on a manhwa with the same title. It is set in the 17th century.

.....William’s mother is now tired of his fantasies and dreams of traveling to the east. He is in danger of getting married and never being able to see the wonders of the world! Through his friend Yan’s help, he sneaks on to a Dutch ship that’s heading for Nagasaki, Japan… But he doesn’t even know how long it will take to get there. Then, the ship hits a storm and William, trapped in his hiding place, is thrown overboard. He wakes up to find a girl with curious eyes standing over him.

Sounds interesting and I like the manhwa too. Suh Woo certainly looks the part but Pierre Deporte looks way younger than what I imagined the male lead would be.

yes, especially in a period drama set in the 17th century but should be bec the story calls for it, lends some fantasy to it (a foreigner washed to shore of Jeju bec of shipwreck ?)

He has a baby face, supposed to be 23 years old.

Interestingly, there is this site where filming crew and staff were asked for on 7 Aug 2008

Why dont' i ever see a nonkorean caucasian girl cast in drama? very unfair... can't wait for this drama to be over already... ya nadeus shto nikogda nibydyt angliskih sybtitrax.

OMG COOL!!!!!!!! 17th century - love between Korean and Caucasian? Shipwrecked together? Very original for a D-drama.

The girl is gorgeous.. The guy doesn't look too appealing, but maybe he'll grow on me.

i can't wait to see this! :DDDDDDDDDDDDD

I think the concept is really interesting but somehow there's not much excitement here... maybe because all the cast are not very well known... ^^ Wonder how this will compare in terms production to another Group Eight project, the much anticipated Boys Over Flowers... I'm going to watch both...

I'm kind of interested. Though I don't know the casts, I think I'll watch this more than the other shows shown during this time. What network will air this again?

The concept is fresh and the story too.

interesting storyline.

looking at this picture...looks like some kind of Pocahontas storyline in korean versi...?

and who is Pierre Deporte?

is anyone have his biodata to share...? i'm really abit curious with this guy..

and who is Pierre Deporte?

He is a French model. He can speak Korean quite well. But wasn't the William character was British?

Seo Woo was great in Crush and Blush.

OMG THIS IS SO INTERESTING!!!! when will it air???!!! OMG WHAT CHANNEL?! THIS IS SO COOL!!!
