MAIN CAST

THE PRODUCERS

  • Cha Tae-hyun as Ra Joon-mo
  • Gong Hyo-jin as Tak Ye-jin

  • IU as Cindy
FANGIRL NOTES
  • Genre : Comedy / Drama
  • It aired on KBS2 from May 15 to June 20, 2015 for 12 episodes.
  • The Producers was described as the first ever “variety drama”, not only because of its subject but because it was produced by KBS’s variety department instead of the drama department.
  • This is the second collaboration between actor Kim Soo-hyun and screenwriter Park Ji-eun after working together in the 2014 hit series My Love from the Star.
  • It is also the second time Kim and IU have starred together, reuniting again after Dream High in 2011.
FANGIRL FEELS

 

  • It was a fun series, nothing dramatic or too funny.
  • The cast was honestly the best aspect of this drama. They had great chemistry and they seemed to get really well.
  • I don’t have much to say about the romantic scenes because I just wasn’t entertained.
  • IU as Cindy was perfect.
  • Kim Soo Hyun’s character (Baek Seung Chan) is lovable and adorable but there are times that I found him annoying but still cute. He stole the show in my opinion, his character was so well written and he did a really good job with his acting.
  • The last episode was completely rushed. I’m left feeling so unsatisfied because there was so much more to the story.

My Rating – 7.5/10

    Thanks for the heads up I would hate to watch all 12 episodes and be disappointed with the ending. You might be right, the cast is the one bringing the show I recognize Tae-hyun from miracle in cell 7 and hyo-jin from Master’s sun. Will definitely go back to your site for more kpop reviews 😊
