That... actually seems like it might be a buttload of fun. Make it happen Cable Dramaland. Make. It. Happen. ^_~

*jumps up in the air and does a Triple Salchow* Ok, ok, I'm not athletic, but I got the same feeling.

Since we are in the very early stage of Production talks, I won't get my hope up too high (yet). Also, My wish for what is important in a sequel is the same what I wrote on the "School 2013′s teasers and posters" articles. So, please, Show, remember what made your original successful in the first place.

I'm hoping, if there is a sequel, it will be a successful one, because we all know that a successful sequel in k-drama is rare. *crosses fingers*

I'm not sure this is a good idea but really I'd prefer a sequel that jumps ahead in time and deals with the children of Shi Won and Yoon Jae and let's us see them as parents but I probably won't get my wish, so for now that series lives only in my imagination.

I guess it depends on your generation. In 1997 I was too young to experience what the characters in the drama did. I definitely remembered some nostalgic things but that was more about life style in Korea back then versus now. I was too young to be a fan on HOT. But 2002 and the following couple of years would be so awesome because I totally remember the craziness of Boa, Se7en, Bi, Lee Jung hyun, and webcam selca.

I don't mind whatever year they will use. I wasn't into k-pop at 1997, but I can enjoy reply 1997 without any problem.
However I'm curious whether they will take place in Busan again or not, because one of many reasons reply 1997 was a hit is satoori.
I'm also half sure that they will cast another stars, given that they use overlap timeline with season 1. I hope they will choose well again.

Hmmm I wonder how her character will be then.
Cross out being a crazy fan of HOT but what...?

I'm not sure how I ever feel about sequels. I have never watched an American series because they seem to go on for...forever lol I have a tendency to lose interest and find kdramas or jdramas (sometimes a little too short) the perfect length. I don't know if this will be as good or exciting to watch as Answer Me, 1994. If they can improve upon the aspects that Answer Me, 1997 lacked AND get another awesome mostly noob cast, I'm in :D Too bad they can't find another Eun Cho-ding to do meta.

Definitely...er, most likely would watch and enjoy XD

I did quite like Answer Me 1997, even though I didn't grow up with those same culture references. And really, I'm not even of the age where the show necessarily took me back to any feelings I may have had.

But I liked the feel of the show and how simple and attractive it felt~

Hopefully the sequel will be as good as the first! Wasn't there's new about how answer me 1997 was supposed to be 1994 from the beginning? But they changed it cause eun ji won joined the cast.

1994 i was 9 years old...whatever a sequel for this drama is not a bad idea... :) ... i'll miss the cast though!

First reaction: YEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSS!!!!!

Second reactions:.....as long as it's not a Dream High 2 disaster.

Third reaction: I was just really happy to see their smiling faces on a post again :D

go for it!! I hope they keep the writing and directing as awesome as the first season plus I hope they cast people as well as they did for the 1997 cast

PLEASE PLEASE.

If anything I would prefer to have Answer Me 1997 come out on DVD so I can re-watch!

I would prefer 2002, just because I barely got the references in 1997, and barely was able to relate to them. So 2002 I would be able to relate even more. But, their target audience is Koreans, in which case 1994 is probably a better choice in keeping with old nostalgia.

I'm sure whether a second season is a good idea.
The strength of the series, as you said, was how people can relate their life with the characters, but to do it again ?
1994 would be a little to old, while 2002 would be too early .... as a foreigner I do know some 1997+ songs, but I'm not sure that older songs would get me hooked. Well, that's my opinion anyway.

I don't really like sequels, just because the majority of them are unsuccessful.

OMG. Love. My knowledge of '94 kpop is even more limited than '97 kpop but it would be a show I would be looking forward to regardless. Though, out of complete biasness, I would want something more recent so I could fangirl along.

Don't know about me. I loved Answer Me 1997 while it lasted. But it did'nt linger on me. I've forgotten it already...It's not a show that I would go back and re-watch it again after few years....and the daddy question dragged a bit....I hope they won't go in the same direction...

that's simply great :)

I'm in even though I barely remember 1994.

So it would be a whole new story and cast? I can't see the original leads playing 14-15 year olds convincingly... that makes me a sad panda because the awesome cast was so much a part of the show's success!

I've learned to be wary of sequels, but this instead sounds more like their original plans - to have the story set in 1994 rather than 1997. This was also the era of part of the crew, so their nostalgia would be part of the mix.

I guess it really boils down to the story for me, though I anticipate the show since a lot of the reasons why 1997 worked so well was because of the writing and directing (and acting). Maybe we'd even get a 2-second shot of bickering teens Shi won and Yoon jae at the end? :)

As long as it's still Seo In Guk and Jung Eun Ji, then, I'm IN!!

A 2002 series would mean everyone is decked out in red all throughtout the whole drama. Go reds!

Perhaps they can tease us with cameos from the 1997 cast. They would be in their third year of middle school then...

And a younger Taewoong too, I suppose...though it still wouldn't be far enough back for Shiwon's sister to be alive. :(

Or maybe cameos in one of the "middle" years, like '05 was for 1997? I think it would be amusing to see some of the older cast be sprinkled in at certain points for the fans of 1997.

Nooooo!!! Sequels always flop. It's going to tarnish the goodness that is AM1997. I'm more excited to see what NEW projects these actors will take on next.

If they decide on 1994 , I will probably understand less of the meta stuff coz I wasn't that into Kpop yet. but there is always dramabeans to explain things =D and above everything it is the great chemistry between the cast and the well written story that is more important

I thought it was a cute drama but the violent girlfriend was a little bit too scary. If I was a man, I would have left her a long time ago no matter how much i loved her.

Yes yes yes, I approve of everything to do with this show.

Yes yes yes, i will even watch Anwer Me 1982 if it has the freshness, newness, awesomeness in writing, acting and and and everything that I needed for my viewing pleasure.

Please please please Kdramagods Don't Fail Us Now!!!

Ooh, I wasn't even born in 1994. But Answer Me 1997 was amazing to watch, so hopefully this will be just as good despite the year (assuming they're going to make it).

oh wow, he studied chemical engineering? i wonder if i can make huge turnover like him lol. i'd love an AM2002 or 2005, but again whatever it is, i'd love to watch this drama! the production team is the best!! ^^

They originally wanted it to be 1994 anyways, but made it 1997 for Eun Ji Won. So it makes sense to have it in that year. They prolly have a lot of material already.

...sequel? I kind of like just 1997, it was well done and I don't think 1994 will speak to the audience as much as 1997 did....

Awesome one! Though I'm not still born on that year, but oh my it could be a great one too. Well it depends on the show's attack on audience

the period between 1989 and 1994 was a super exciting one in mid-eastern europe, where I grew up. I graduated from high school in 94. We knew so little of how people lived in soooo far places like Korea, I would be really curious to see, if life at that same time was also thrilling at that side of the globe... or just to see how people dressed there at that time. I really enjoyed the references to political life and society in Answer me 1997.

I havent finished watching reply 1997 but i'd love a Joon-hee storyline in the future , and if he can confront Yoon-Jae for being such an ass to him then i'd be ecstatic

I find that tvn often changes casts for sequels. Hope that doesn't happen!!
