No idea about the end of the monopoly, though. There’s more of a strong suspicion that DF just has the rights to the majority of CJ E&M offerings, which includes tvN (and OCN, which also explains why you’ll find a lot of those shows primarily on DF as well) and may pass on some that they think might not be worthwhile.
More The Good Wife casting news in the past couple of days:
Kim Tae Woo will be joining as a deputy prosecutor. (I had many news pics to choose from, btw. You’re welcome.) I’m thinking maybe the Glenn Childs’ role, just based on the description that he’ll go head-to-head with Yoo Ji Tae’s character (who’s playing the Peter Florrick role).
Tae In Ho has been cast as a criminal defense attorney. I’ve only really found one article about it, and it seems like he’ll be Yoo Ji Tae’s defense attorney (but don’t hold me to that).
Finally, Sung Yoo Bin will be playing Jeon Do Yeon and Yoo Ji Tae’s son (aka Zach Florrick). No word on if they’ll also cast for Grace Florrick or keep this version a one-child family.
The big question, though, is who will be playing Jackie? Dramaland has no end of regal, elitist, nose-in-your-business mother-in-laws, so I’m curious to see who will get the part (because how could they resist passing it up when it’s such a drama staple?).
There may be another flurry of casting news in the coming weeks, since the team had their first table read yesterday and so filming will likely begin soon. Which is a good thing, because the drama is set to premiere on tvN July 8th, following Dear My Friends.
Lim Ju Eun at yesterday’s wrap party for the Woozy drama
.. I’m sure a lot of people don’t know her very well, especially if they are newer fans to kdramas. She hasn’t been in many in the past few years, and when she has they’ve been small roles. It’s quite strange she’s had such a hard time breaking out from them lately, she’s quite a talented actress, great at both comedy and intense drama. (See What’s Up? and Wild Romance). Please support her when the Woozy drama airs. ^^
Woozy is just a promotional gimmick – LimJu²/ImJoo² is the only thing that matters.
