Drinking Solo to order up a second round?
by girlfriday
Yay, let’s toast! Funny slice-of-life comedy Drinking Solo just ended its run yesterday on tvN, and already there’s talk of a second season for the show. It’s great news in my book, since I already miss the quirky characters and the lovely realism of the stories, and thought the drama felt short at sixteen episodes. While it’s still too early for definitive answers, producers are promising to make a second season happen somehow. Seeing as how the drama comes from PDs and writers of the Let’s Eat and Rude Miss Young-ae franchises that have succeeded in both the spinoff and multi-season formats, I think it’s safe to say they can make it happen.
Despite being advertised as the drinking counterpart to Let’s Eat, Drinking Solo was far more focused on the lives of teachers and students in the academy-central district of Noryangjin than it was ever about drinking. And because the show was about characters either teaching or studying for the civil service exam—an ever-growing trend these days among college grads because of job scarcity—the show was praised for its relatable portrayal of young adults just struggling to get by. It premiered to 2.9% ratings and doubled its share to 5.8% by the finale, and the cast and crew were rewarded with a vacation.
Drinking Solo’s Chief Producer Ahn Sang-hwi stated in an interview, “There has been talk back and forth about Season 2. I think we’ll definitely find a way to do it somehow. Of course once we begin planning it concretely there will be many things to work out like the actors’ schedules, but because the producers and tvN are certain, the chances are high.”
According to CP Ahn, most of the actors have expressed the desire to return for a second season as well, which I don’t doubt since it was a positive boost for Ha Suk-jin and Park Ha-sun, and breakout roles for many others, like Gong Myung, Key, Hwang Woo-seul-hye, and Min Jin-woong.
Reps from tvN were more cautious about giving a statement, and said that concrete plans haven’t been made yet because the first season just ended, but since cast and crew have expressed interest, the network is leaving the door open for a sequel. As far as the story goes, there’s plenty more to explore with these characters, and because of the transient nature of exam-cramming gosiwon life, you could cycle characters in and out for years if you really wanted to. Although really, who could ever replace the Noryangjin idiot threesome, and why would anyone do such a crazy thing?
Okay, Drinking Solo, I’m ready for 2-cha now!

I wanna how can they decided to make next season of a drama. I mean to say Lets Eat had good ratings but can't say as huge ratings. But I understand Reply Series. In this case, compare to Drinking Solo, Another Miss OH had huge ratings but not go to the second round. Please enlighten me.

At the time, Let's Eat's numbers were really stand out for the network; TvN has had even bigger numbers at times since then. It also garnered a lot of buzz and online views, and tapped into the popular live eating streaming phenomena. And I think it was pretty cheap to make. They had an idea and they just went with it.

Have you watched the drama @deandra ? If you haven't yet, then watch it first and decide after if you want and they deserve a second season.
Drinking Solo is so underrated HIGH QUALITY DRAMA. You need to watch it to appreciate its quality. Ratings and POPULAr hallyu stars are not the only bases for an extension and appreciation. Like who cares about the ratings? Many people doesn't watch it live.

Ratings aside, Another Oh Hae Young was quite resolved by the end. I don't know about Drinking Solo, but as for as Let's Eat is goes, the food-theme/focus throughout left it open to continuation with new characters and stories.

shipper in me : that's why the writer ends it like that, so she can force the PD to make season 2 for more couple to make
logic reason in me : the drama ends the way it start but the character gains more life story,
that's why we need season 2 to see how they behave with the new knowledge,
conclusion : we need Season 2, badly
called it
"The Second Glass" (well I am bad at naming, anybody have suggestion)

Yeah that felt more like a midseason wrapup than a solid conclusion. They might need to rotate the students out and swap a teacher in at the school but there's a LONG way to go before Premium Trash can convince me he would be marriage material.
Heck the rest of the co-workers were never even shown reacting to the secret dating!

Yeah, I'm agree with you. That's one hell of 'low quality' ending, just how Trash Quality like to say.

You can do a lot with the life of students. Jung Seok and Ha Na needs a lot of screentime and growth.
Lots of new funny moments and happenings around students.
2nd season has too much potential to explore.
Also That Episode 16 left a QUALITY TASTE in mouth.

I hope they do a second season as I think there are certainly lots more they can explore with it. But only if they continue the "high quality" humour and the same cast. No swapping out the one part of the OTP like Let's Eat 2, cos I'd feel cheated after all the time we spent watching "Premium Trash" grow from the Jin Sang douchebag he was, he can't swap out Ha Na for another girl now!
Wishes for the second season :
1) Ha Na and Jung Seok to renunite properly, not from across the Red Sea Moses divided.
2) Jin Yi x Jin Woong get hitched and deal with the addition of Jin Baby
3) Noryangjin trio study for exams again. There's not a lot of drinking in the first one but they studied even less.
5) Ki Bum x Chae Yeon get togther.... eventually, so much more potential angst
6) Principal of the school needs to get a love life
7) Bring in Ji Soo because he is the perfect age group to join these guys and I need something quick to rid me of his currently airing sideburns.

I'm with Lime Chili all the way! I very fugly recall how the PD screwed up Let's Eat 2 and subsequent editions of that. Viewers were never so pissed. They'll screw up Let's Drink:The Second Round, too! (Notice how I made my own title for the 2nd season?) Bring in Park Jun-Keum as the Principal's scary wife he's always mentioning after she finishes the Laurel Tree Tailors saga and make it look like she's going to take over the school- remember is wife's family gave him the $$$ and Kim Seul-Gi for a cameo or a role as one of the new teachers that comes in to befriend Ha Na.

They ended Let's Eat on a shi-ty not as well ending for a season 2 setup. As long a he doesn't switch out the lead actress. Add some competition so "Quality Trash " has to work to get the woman! Anyone in for a cameo by the male Let' Eat lead just for a little 'flashback'?

Or, you know, just throw down and have the two of them as rivals. They can explain the lead from Let's Eat season 2 as having run off with a sound producer.
But wait, Doojoon guest starred on Let's Fight Ghost as his Let's Eat character which means we can also cross over Let's Fight with Let's Drink and Let's Eat. I mean, Taec might go on to study for the civil service exam, right? He could cameo as "that guy who should be studying but who is always putting on the black suit and disappearing for a while."

They can probably do sort of a Misaeng workplace set-up where these 3 are newbie workers but less gloomy and more hijinks. After all, you already have No Geu-rae around. Hehehe!!! Wait!! If this actually happens, I'm making a career out of fortune telling. Hehehe...

I don't mind a season2. I like to see the return of all the cast except the main leads PHS & HSJ. I thought they under performed as the main lead characters.
The trio students are great so are the other two professors.
Just like the second season of Let's Eat, they have also change the female lead. But for Drinking Solo 2, I hope they cast a different lead for both male and female.

As long as the OTP stays together. They barely had 1/2 a date for crying out loud. And 1 kiss for a 16 episode tvN drama is ridiculous.
And yes his quality anju was really delicious looking. And fire that DF subber who keeps using " cruddy ".

It's part of his monologue when he drinks. To keep his ETOH levels to 0.08 otherwise he feels cruddy. It's being subbed by DF and the streaming sites all take their subs from it.
He has been using anju for all his drink snacks. The subber has glossed over a lot of terms or just plain haven't subbed it.

A thousand YES to Season 2 provided they keep the cast.
Foremost, I want Ha Suk Jin and Park Ha Sun back. I'm still disappointed over the finale. I can't get enough of this couple. Ha Suk Jin made Jung Seok work. If it's any other actor, I'd have found JS irredeemable. I've always like actresses who are uninhibited in comedies and PHS scored in that aspect. Together, they made such a cute pair.
I also love Jin Yi & Jin Woong pair. Although they got together because of a one night stand, I've felt that they were suitable for each other. Rather than personalities match, it was more a case of complementing and meeting each other's needs.
The Noryangjin Trio must not be replaced. Of the three, I love Ki Bum and Dong Young the most. Gong Myung is less funny but there's this synergy when all three are together.

I agree with you esp. with Hana & JS not having a direct conversations at the end. They make it look like their relationship was uncertain even though Hana mentioned of seeing and getting together the next time JS goes out drinking...I expected to see them drink together (not solo) at the end. I guess they left it open for Season 2 and for them to start over their relationship as they were just starting and falling in love with each other only for JS to pull that harsh break up thing in episode 15...messing up their blossoming romantic relationship. If they do s2, they better bring back HSJ & PSH and their characters together because they made me love them.

I'm with you. Bring back the same cast and more HSJ & PHS as Jung-Seok & Hana please, because I love these two together. Like you, I keep waiting for them to finally get back together at the end with hugs and kisses, instead we only saw flashbacks of their sweet moments together (why repeat those same scenes we've already seen too many times? Why not give us something new and more to see them back together, they're the main OTP of this drama, were they not?...yet the second couple who were forced to be together, had a happy and lovey-dovey ending...so weird, lol).

Yes! To this! I think this drama needs a season 2, as I've mentioned on episode 15 recap discussion. I thought the final episode was disappointing (and as someone said here, "low quality" like Professor Jin always say, lol...so true!) and didn't feel like it was an ending at all. Now, comes this news and no wonder it didn't feel like it because they might be going further to S2. I hope if they do a second season, that they keep the same cast (like everyone here mentioned here) and characters and keep the same OTP couples (JS & Hana and Jin-Yi and Professor Min) they started in the first one. That's what keep the viewers interested and watching. Don't replace the main leads nor switch/ruin the main OTP for a new character...that's a big no-no for a sequel of an already successful drama with an established fan based/viewers. Don't fix what isn't broken (except for JS & Hana's relationship...their last scene together at episode 16 was disappointing...). Just add more new students and teachers, more humor and less angst, less drinking for students and show more studying (and more lectures from teachers too). Also, more cameos from familiar K-Actors/Idols faces because they are fun to watch. And please writers no pulling a noble idiocy on the last minute on the 11th hour and especially not on the last episode. Having said all that, I'm all for Season 2 especially if they bring back the same main cast and characters, because they were the main reason I've loved and enjoyed watching DS.

I usually never want a second season, but I'm going to make an exception here because the ending was so disappointing. The last two episodes went off the rails.
I think this is partially the fault of the writer and director. They could've wrapped up this up nicely in 16 episodes, but the pace of the series was slow, and they spent too much time focusing on superfluous things.
Jung-seok and Hana didn't develop after EP12. The story should've focused more on Jung-seok's personal growth, and Hana's growth as a tutor. The last four episodes is where this should've happened, and you could even do it by extending the series to 20 episodes. We could've seen how their relationship changes them both for the better. Instead, the story went into the worst phase and wasted the entirety of the last two episodes.
It's not just them who were affected either. Dong-young's ending was so unsatisfying. He started off as an interesting character, but then became background filler very quickly. To top it off, he failed the exam. I could understand the other two failing, but this wasn't satisfying to see. He was the best of the trio, and they began to use him to fill up time for the most of the series.
That's a problem with the Noryangjin trio in general. They were there to fill up time and some of the focus on their antics was unnecessary. A good example being the Jo Kwon cameo in one of the episodes. There are a lot of moments like this with the trio, or members of it, where it felt like the story was just spinning its wheels. They were a good part of the series but less time was spent on actually developing them as characters for the amount of focus they got. We should've gotten more of that instead.
It would've been wiser to spend some of that unneccesary time on the two main leads too so we could see Jung-seok and Hana properly develop.
I'm so conflicted. I want a season two because I think the ending is really disappointing, but I also think this series could've been fantastic as it is if the writing was tightened up, and so much time wasn't wasted. They could have even expanded it to 20 episodes, and we could've finished it off with a more satisfying resolution.
From EP14 to EP20, that would give plenty of time for Gong-myung to stop acting like a child, Jung-seok to start treating him and others better, Hana to grow more in confidence, and for her relationship with Jung-seok to progress more. No noble idiocy either. It could've been a fantastic 20 episode series, or even a great 16 episode series. But as it is, it's a good series for 14 episodes, but then just really disappoints in the final moments.
I hope they change it up a little for season two. Keep Jung-seok and Hana, and some of the tutors, but bring in some other cast members as students. There definitely needs to be a little bit of a change because the antics will definitely grow more tiresome in the second season when these characters are no longer fresh.

@Jolly: "The story should’ve focused more on Jung-seok’s personal growth, and Hana’s growth as a tutor."
Spot on. The show was set up promising us this development, but we never got it. Both brothers were idiotic in the final two episodes, and Gong Myung didn't even apologise for making life hard on Hana.
On the other hand, I loved the 'slice of life' antics of the Noryangjin Trio even if they didn't seem important for the plot. In their case I was expecting them to buckle down and study, so the ending in a way was satisfying because they now have a reason to study: Gong Myung will do it for his own sake (I imagine), Ki Bum has some Top Beauty support, and Dong Yong... might treat himself to roast chicken once in a while. I think they've grown more than the main couple, because they end up with a new perspective one life thanks to going through a tough time with friends.
So, yes, conflicted. I agree they could have wrapped it up nicely in 16-20 episodes and don't really know if I'd want a Season 2. I'm fine with open ended shows that leave us with a sense of hope (School 2013 was a great example of this).

I am totally for a Drinking Solo Season 2 as long as all of the original cast members get to stay.
What I would love to see in Season 2:
- Ha na and Jung-seok actively dating (I was disappointed that they were not sitting together in the finale)
- Jin-yi and Professor Min dealing with their marriage and baby
- Ki-bum and Chae-yeon dating
- Gong-Myung falling for a student
- More of the Noryanjin trio!
* It would be great if they could add some female students for Season 2. It was good that we got to see Chae-yeon's feelings about trying to pass the exam but the show could add more female perspectives.

I'd say please for a 2nd season! I am already pretending that the last 2 episodes didn't happen, so writer-nim, can we re-start season 2 from there? Yes please. And amp up the quality this time. Oh and someone mentioned a 2nd male lead pinning for the female lead in season 2? No please. What makes this drama worked for me was the no love triangle arc. But then again, it'll be cute to see Jung Seok all competitive and jealous. I am so conflicted. Bring us the 2nd round already!

I DO want to watch Drinking Solo, but I think I still haven't partially because I am still bitter about poor Lee Soo Kyung being dumped/cast aside for Let's Eat 2. Had they kept the same cast, used a whole new one, or made Yoon Doo Joon a brother or cousin of his Let's Eat character, I'd have been happy. But I just couldn't get over the unraveling of what was built in the first season when I tried to watch Let's Eat 2!
I know this shouldn't sway me here. I will get around to Drinking Solo at some point!

I KNOW RIGHT!? I need my Lee Sang-yoon and Kim So-eun and Sang Su-rok trio playing mindblowing games. Especially since Liar Game's ending is so ambiguous! (That last scene could open much more doors to a second season. tvN, please hear our battle cries!)

the ending is like an open ending, and really potential to develop the rest of story into season 2. Can't wait to see more sweet scene of Prof Park and Prof Jin because i really disappointed with the last episode. I hope there will be more chat, fun time,hug and kiss for both cast :) Drinking Solo Fighting!!!

A second season means more impersonations by Professor Min, I'm all for it! A list of impersonations I really hope will happen: Kim So-hyun from You Who Came From the Stars (maybe Professor Hwang could join in as Cheon Song-yi!); Gu Jun-pyo from Boys Before Flowers (I NEED to see Professor Min in Jun-pyo's awful curly haircut); any prince from Scarlet Heart (preferably Wang Yo, because, yunno, eyeliner on fleek); and lastly, as a K-pop boybander (how had this NOT happen? Writer-nim, include this!).
