Shin Mina Signs On for SBS Summer Rom-com Will You Have Dinner with Me

Either the script is awesome or Shin Mina is simply ready for a dramaland return, whatever the reason she’s made life easier for drama lovers by agreeing to star in upcoming SBS drama Will You Have Dinner With Me (Let’s Have Dinner Together). New broke about her considering the offer only last week but she isn’t the thumb twiddling type and makes her decisions decisively. Dinner is based on a popular webtoon and will delve into the romance and career details about urban Seoul-ites in their late 20s and early 30s.

The production has further announced that the leading man will be someone of Shin Mina’s top star level, which is a bold proclamation that I will only believe when I see the actor that ends up being cast. Adapting the manhwa to the small screen will be screenwriter Go Yoon Hee who recently penned The Greatest Wedding. Dinner is still a long ways from hitting the television sets, with SBS scheduling the drama for Wed-Thurs following Mask with Su Ae and Joo Ji Hoon, which will take over for the currently airing The Girl Who Sees Smells.

Shin Mina has many more movies under her belt than K-dramas, so there are tons of top male stars she hasn’t worked with on the small screen before. For this particular drama, a few names immediately come to mind like Eric, So Ji Sub, and Jo In Sung, any one of these leading men would rock my world if cast in this drama with Shin Mina.

  • Finally someone who confirms without trolling for weeks till no end. Yay for some normalcy. Now I think I want Rain to reunite with her LOL! They were love in ALTK and I'm still devastated with the ending of that.

  • "The production has further announced that the leading man will be someone of Shin Mina’s top star level"-It would be a lot more assuring if they included a star writer instead! but no,they went and gave the job to the writer of 'The Greatest Wedding!' To be fair, I haven't watched that drama but the reviews I read were enough to make me apprehensive about the ability of the writer.I fear for my Shin Min Ah *sigh*

    • Crap. I couldn't last the first two episodes of "The Greatest Marriage" without cringing. I'm sorry but if she's the writer for this drama then I'm out. Sorry Shin Mina. I really hope that writer doesn't screw you up. Why do SBS tends to give inexperienced writer (she only has 1 drama under her and it's the crappiest drama ever) drama who casts top stars? Shouldn't SBS learn this from "Hyde, Jekyll, and Me"?

  • YES! One of my favorite Kdrama actresses back on the small screen! So happy! I can never get enough of her. Fingers crossed for a totally awesome leading man who is worthy of her - not many are!

  • I love her and am so glad she's coming back to dramas, but that writer strikes fear into my heart for her. :/

  • An actor of her star level? My bet is on either Jo In Sung or So Ji Sub. The latter has been absent for a long time. It's time to come back, Master.

  • The writer of The Greatest Marriage? I hope my oppa isn't cast. Although a really great cast, great chemistry, great OST, great directing can somewhat make up for mediocre writing

  • WTH that writer of Greatest Marriage.. the webtoon must be Shin Minah's personal favourite for her to agree working with this nugu and bad writer.

  • Oh boy... I swear after seeing what happened over Hyde, I am apprehensive all over. I have seen TGM and while the writing wasn't terrible, it wasn't good. The thought of webtoon, sbs, lacking writer, good leads with star power = recipe for complete disaster. I love shin Mina so I really hope she's paired with someone like JiS or SJS... I will only believe it when I see it.

  • I wish it would be So Ji Sub. They have great chemistry in their Giordano cf's. I miss him in a drama so much!
