for some reason i want to see jang nara, kim jaewon and kim raewon reunite also..

Omo. Successful Story of a Bright Girl will always stay in my heart... aw.

Story wise, it's nothing special about it, but I'm EXCITED with their reunion!

Fighting

I'm more interested who they're gonna cast as ji bao bei

It's really happening? The return of the Jangs? Yay! Can't wait!

FTLY was indeed a classic, and Ethan Ruan was awesome in it. I'll be looking forward to watching the koreanised version.

From what i read this is more to romantic melo than rom-com. Jang Hyuk character is describe not like usual k-drama jerky chaebol. He's more to straightforward but had a warm heart, pretty sassy and direct too.
I'm more excited to their reunion than the remake. Lol. I hold my breath since they being offered and yeayyy when they confirmed. Seems like it pretty long since the last time i saw JH in rokantic roles. Hope the remake will be a success for the sake of both of them. Bright Girl always be my fav rom com until now.
Also MBC seek like to make a reunion for the old pairing. Jjang Couple, Hotel Couple (LDH-LDW). Guess which couple after this maybe?

One Taiwan drama that I wish for a Korean remake is The Fierce Wife.

It would be interesting to see how the same situation plays out in a Korean setting.

Love both of them. Hate the original drama. Why are they remaking this?
I would love to see both of them in a really funny rom-com.

"The romantic comedy remake will star Jang Hyuk as a chaebol heir, the ninth generation only son of a strict family that rules his personal life with an iron fist. He’s unrealistically perfect, and your classic prickly-on-the-outside, soft-on-the-inside kind of hero."

Haha, is there any other kind?

I don't know. I don't see Jang Hyuk as the rom-com type of actor. Lol, not to say that there's a definitive breed of actors for every genre, but after seeing him in dramas like Chuno and Tree with Deep Roots it's kinda hard to imagine him in a less serious romantic comedy.

The plot is something that I am a bit in love,with the main leads forced to live under one roof and have to take care of one another.
But I really do hope that the drama can make something out of the female lead.Its just that dramaland could really do without another Candy

One of the reason why I stopped watching the Taiwanese version is that I couldn't stand the heroine despite liking the actress. She was too nice and weak. I don't know if I'll watch this version.

This is the year for actors and actress reunion? My Girl cast then this.

I've seen Fated to Love You and it was cute. Not totally original, but cute and breezy, basically a rom-com done in a way that you don't really pay attention to the fact that its storyline has been tried and used 100 times over.

But I want to groan at this...why couldn't they have chosen a better plotted drama? I hate how sometimes dramas get remade and are terribly horrible. I hope this isn"'t one if them.

Woah, another TW drama remake; first the remake of My Queen (Witch's Romance) and now this! And coincidentally Ethan Ryan starred in both dramas. Anyway I've watched Fated To Love You, and I thought it was a rather enjoyable drama. It will be interesting to see how the Korean version turns out, given that the original TW version was such a hit and also considered a classic~ :•)

Jang Nara will make a great Chen Xin Yi! Since I've never seen Jang Hyuk in a rom-com, I'm not so sure about him as Ji Cun Xi, but it does sound like a potentially good pairing, considering they've starred together before and seemed to have chemistry then. And as cliched and dated as the doormat female lead sounds on paper, I really thought it worked for Fated to Love You. Xin Yi being a sticky note girl was integral to the trajectory of the story and her character, from what I remember.

Jang Hyuk is not new to comedy (Please teach me english, Jungle Juice, maybe not popular, but they were comedies) Not new to romance (Thank You, Robbers, even Chuno had romance AND funny scenes involving his character) Of course classic rom com is a different genre (not my favorite) but he has also done that Bright Girl. So yeah, I don't worry about him or his chemistry with Jang Nara. I just hope the adaptation is good in terms of script. I agree the premise sounds very typical so hopefully dialogues keep it fresh.

I love drama FTLY, I've big anticipation for the remake.
Btw, I want other lead casts such as So Ji Sub & Yoon Eun Hye (just my imagination). :-)

Jang Hyuk is a stellar actor and is going to be great in this. I'm extrememly excited about this one, more for him than anything else.

I wasn't a big fan of Fated to Love You when it aired, but I liked it a lot more when I rewatched it recently. The heroine drove me nuts, but the second half more than makes up for it. I think this will work well as long as it's only 16 episodes.

I didn't know FTLY was being remade in Korea!! I just cannot fathom Fated To Love You as Korean drama for the life of me. It's such a classic wacky, cliche Taiwanese drama that it's hard for me to imagine Koreans capturing the same feel the original had. I loved FTLY and even though it didn't have the best plot or budget for a drama, it kept me interested and invested in the characters.

I just feel like the Korean version would lean a little more on the melodramatic side and that the male lead will be too much of a jerk to the female lead. The Taiwanese lead was a little jerky too, but you could see that he actually cared about his wife and his unborn child by the little gestures he did for her throughout the run of the drama. I've never seen Jang and Jang act in anything before, but I will check this out. Hopefully it lives up to the original.

I literally elated off my seat :) What a surprise! I am a fresh and new converted fan of Jang Hyuk , watching on a marathon of his Filmography and drama series. All these years I avoided his craft, for some personal reason (he has this uncanny resemblance of my first boyfriend, by feature ) Well, believe me, not what your thinking of, just have this matured perception now . I find Jang Hyuk as exceptional actor and Jang Nara earned my respect. I love to see them both in drama. Excited to watch this!

Can't wait to see this one actually - I loved the Taiwanese drama and seriously loved their 12 year old drama - Successful Story of a Bright Girl too. It was such a typical drama but the actors made it worth it.

i feel that jang nara and jang hyuk are too old for the roles. maybe jang nara can pull it off but not jang hyuk. joe chen was 28 when she did FTLY. ethan ruan was 25 then. FTLY is to-date the highest rated taiwanese drama. but i love the second one more - autumn's concerto.

Pretty sure the next one that will get adapted is autumn concerto!!!

Anyway i'm so excited about this. I love these two since successful story of a bright girl.
For those who concern whether jang hyuk can do rom-com, no worries ok!!! He has done rom-com before and he can definitely do it!

Wohooooo can't wait!

I dunno but way back then I thought it'll be cool if Korea remakes Devil Beside You! Deliciously angsty fauxcestastic college romance with the cutest/hottest pairing ever in Rainie Yang-Mike He.

I'm kinda thinking Kim Woo Bin and Lee Yoo Bi can play the two leads and recreate the original's burning hot yet impossibly cute romance.

And you know what will be up to Kdrama's alley in terms of TW drama remake? 100% Senorita!

I meaan, swapped twins (check), face/off style transformation (check), inheritance war (check), love quadrangle (check), swoony hero (check), bad guy gone good (check).

It's simply meant to be!

So I really liked FTLY, I have a soft spot for Chen Chiao En she always delivers in her roles. That being said I am okay with a remake of FTLY but I am not on board with the chopice of Jang NaRa. I know a lot of people like her but I really find her annoying to the point of not being able to watch her dramas. Her casting is always a disappointment to me because I often like the other actors inviolved in these projects. Even though I like Jang Hyuk I will have to give this a pass.

I remember watching the Taiwanese Fated to Love You when it was beginning its ratings explosion and ihmo, I don't think it was the plot that was really driving the success of that show (or rather alot of the big hit Taiwanese dramas in general sadly) or the good execution of the comedic tone with occasional feel-good warm fuzzy acting moments.

They had the ratings hype of having a bed scene in the very first episode of the drama (the scene was more gratuitous than average as well) and then managed to hold on to that hype with the funny gags and heartwarming acting.

It's not something I think you can recreate from a formula and I hope the producers do attempt to bring something a little more original to the table, because their circumstances are very different.

All I ask of this production is that they let Dylan stay awesome (which I'm not that worried about, kdramas are great with perfect second male leads) but I really hope they change his ending.

That's probably the biggest gripe I had with the drama, he was such a great character but he was just given another nameless faceless stickynote girl because apparently that was his type. I'll even be okay with birth secret angst if that means that Anna and him can end up together (though now I can't even rmbr if they were actually blood rrlated siblings. But that also would have to make Anna a less hateful charactee which... I can't see how we could have that happen since she was the catalyst for the big twist in the middle of the drama.

But I really love this drama even though it did have some really horrible moments and I just want to see it done right!

"her only good trait is that she's KIND"?! seriously??? is being kind an archaic trait now that when you see it in a person it makes them unique? does being kind gives her the magical power to transform this unrealistically perfect, and classic prickly-on-the-outside man into a perfectly softy-on-the-inside chaebol hero?

I need to watch "Successful Story of a Bright Girl" . Sounds interesting . Must be good.

Jang Jang, i hope bed scene xdddd

I watched "Fated to Love You" and I really liked the central story - specially since the actors were pretty good and had a lot of chemistry. BUT... I hope that the remake will not include all the side stories and irritating sub-plots that never went anywhere or wasn't even important to the story. Also hopefully a better ending for the second leads.

What an awesome idea.

I wonder if JB or GF will recap...

Perhaps this is the start of the return of the old school k-dramas.

I wonder if they will redo some of the other ones next...

wow! i love this pair in story of a bright girl and that was the first time too that i saw Jang Hyuk .will be looking forward to this.

I am so excited for this. FTLY is the only Taiwanese drama I like. In the beginning, I was just going to give it a try because I love Ethan Ruan, but I've watched it several times now :P

Can't wait for this! Awesome

OWOWOWOW!! Jang Hyuk paired with one of my favourite Taiwan drama remake of all time!!?? I couldn't possibly miss this!! Why June couldn't come by faster!!
