larus Posted February 18, 2016 Author Share Posted February 18, 2016 Jeon Do-yeon confirms The Good Wife remake, Yoo Ji-tae considers by javabeans | February 18, 2016 | 6 Comments They did it, they actually did it—tvN has lured Jeon Do-yeon (The Shameless, Secret Sunshine, Harmonium in My Memory) back to television! What a major get. Talk first emerged late last year that Jeon was in talks to star in the remake of the much-acclaimed American TV series The Good Wife, and after over a decade exclusively working in film, Jeon has confirmed that she will be headlining the show, taking the role originated by Juliana Margulies. Moreover, Yoo Ji-tae (Healer, The Tenor—Lirico Spinto, Oldboy) is considering the role of her husband, the disgraced state attorney who gets sent to prison following a public sex scandal, propelling the main character to return to her former career as lawyer to support her family. In this version, his character would be a prosecutor with the Seoul Central District Prosecutor’s Office. Perhaps he’s a little young for the character (he’s 39, Jeon is 43), but Yoo has a wonderful gravitas and somberness to his acting, so I don’t worry that he isn’t up for it. They’re both fabulous actors individually, and now I’m excited to see them together. Directing is PD Lee Jung-hyo of dark noir series Heartless City and bright rom-com Witch’s Romance; writing is Spy’s Han Sung-woon. The Good Wife has secured a Monday-Tuesday timeslot on tvN, to follow mystery-romance Oh Hae-young Again, which in turn follows hostage-negotiator-thriller Pied Piper. It premieres in July.

jongski Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 Saw the movie trailer as Showbiz Korea did a lengthy piece about the movie and lead star couple of weeks ago. After seeing the trailer, I thought she can do Bridges of Madison County type of kdrama adaptation if there is one. But her as the Good Wife, that is good too. Though I'm not familiar with the stars. PD is the one who did Heartless City which I love so I'll check this one. Thanks for the thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to have to work hard." Jeon will portray the emotional turmoil experienced by a woman after her husband betrays and publicly humiliates her, the agency said.

I like that trailer too bad not able to watch the movie. I hope it gets sub and shown on either Viki or DF. From the article posted above "From Kim Hye-soo in "Signal", Ko Hyeon-jeong in "Dear My Friends" and Jeon Do-yeon in "The Good Wife", they are all top actresses who have won Best Actress in different award ceremonies. They are competing at what they do best, acting. " Are these 3 actresses rivals? Just curious. I'm not familiar with any of them or their dramas. I'm watching Signal but I'm also going to watch the two other dramas. Who's got the edge though, I wonder. How about Son Ye Jin should do a comeback too, probably? At least I'm familiar with her and like her. (off topic..sorry) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am still watching every week (they are at season 7). In American version, the husband doesn`t have a big role. He is not a serial regular... I think they took the concept/ the idea but they will make a new story for this adaptation. Either way, it will be interesting. It will be my first Korean adaptation drama after a popular series. I don`t know what to expect. I would like a new story for this kdrama even if they will start from the same setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

larus Posted March 24, 2016 Author Share Posted March 24, 2016 Yoon Kye-sang up for tvN remake of The Good Wife by girlfriday | March 23, 2016 | 1 Comment My my, they just keep lining up good actors for this project. Though I guess once you score A-list film actress Jeon Do-yeon (The Shameless, Secret Sunshine) to headline your drama, you’d be crazy not to give her charismatic co-stars to work with. The Korean remake of the critically-acclaimed American television series The Good Wife has confirmed Jeon for the main role, as well as Yoo Ji-tae (Healer) to play her husband; now Yoon Kye-sang (Last, Full Sun) is being courted to play her main love interest. The Emmy-award-winning series is currently airing its seventh and final season on CBS, and stars Julianna Margulies as the wife of a disgraced state’s attorney who is sent to prison for political corruption involving a sex scandal. She goes back to work as a lawyer after spending 13 years as a stay-at-home mother of two kids, and the drama is about her rediscovering her professional and personal life.

Ohh is he going to be the Korean William Gardner? Oh no, I already want to ship the two already. I wonder how much of the American story will be incorporated into this remake. There's a lot of content to go with, and not all the themes would be appropriate for the target audience, but I'm really looking forward to seeing how it turns out.

xiennora Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 Kim Seo-hyung in final negotiations to join The Good Wife by javabeans | March 24, 2016 | Casting continues to impress on tvN’s The Good Wife remake, which is now in final negotiations to cast Kim Seo-hyung, making for a robust lineup — not that I’d expect any less of the project that finally lured Jeon Do-yeon back to the small screen. Jeon (Shameless, Secret Sunshine) was the first to confirm as the lead character of a woman who returns to the workforce following her husband’s fall from grace when he’s caught up in a political scandal. Yoo Ji-tae (Healer) plays the disgraced husband who goes to prison, with Yoon Kye-sang (Full Sun) in the mix to play the heroine’s law firm colleague and love interest. You may know Kim Seo-hyung for playing fierce, competent, often badass secondary roles; at least, that’s how I always think of her. Her drama credits include political dramaAssembly, sageuk Empress Ki, satirical History of a Salaryman, and quintessential makjang Wife’s Temptation. The character she’s up to play is friends with Yoon Kye-sang’s character and his co-CEO at the law firm, which is where our heroine will end up when she decides to return to practice after 13 years away from her career. The description sounds more along the lines of the Christine Baranski character, who initially harbors doubt over the heroine’s return to law and later comes around to provide support and advice. Although, if we’re talking strong female solidarity I’m wondering if we’ll be getting an Archie Panjabi character too, since their solid friendship became a highlight of the show (well, at least before the rift broke them apart). Maybe they can give Kim Seo-hyung elements of both characters? The Good Wife will air in June. Via Star News Source: dramabeans ***************** omg she'd make a perfect Lockhart!
