Casting is complete for upcoming web drama Cinderella and Four Knights, and is way more promising that I initially thought. Thanks to locking down K-movie actress Park So Dam, this fluffy drama adaptation of a manhwa merits a look even if the rest of the cast is hit and miss. The male leads are Jung Il Woo, Ahn Jae Hyun, and Lee Jung Shin, playing rich cousins, while Choi Min plays their bodyguard, and together make up the four knights to Park So Dam’s Cinderella.
Rounding out the cast is Son Na Eun from girl group A Pink, a group I only know one member of and that’s Jung Eun Ji, so it’ll be interesting to see if Son Na Eun makes an impression on me. The story line of a regular girl living with related rich boys in a strange mansion reminds me so much of Horikita Maki and Mukai Osamu‘s Atashinchi no Danshi, which was inconsistent in execution but had a great kooky set up. Cinderella and Four Knights will be fully pre-produced at a short 16 episodes and air later this year.
The drama may seem slight on concept, and has its fair share of flower boys, but the PD is Kwok Hyuk Chan who directed Secret Garden, A Gentleman’s Dignity, and Lie to Me, and I really love his directorial style. Adapting the original story for the small screen will be a tandem of two relatively new screenwriters, Won Yung Sil who did Dream Knight and Mi Ji Eun who wrote short dramas in sageuk Seol Ryun’s Story and drama festival entry Old Goodbye.

The main female lead is very beautiful
Quick question. Aren't webdramas considered a downgrade from doing primetime dramas like on SBS, KBS, MBC, or even cable networks? Or is it considered just as prestigious, or at least on the same level? I kind of assumed they were a step down, which is why I was surprised JIL is doing this.
Actually webdramas are getting popular right now but still aren't consider that important. They aren't a downgrade but just like youtube videos that some times get high ratings.
I'd consider it a downgrade, but even So Ji-sub did a webdrama. I guess if they are just taking it in between proper projects it's nothing to worry about.
I found na eun so so unbearable to watch in twenty again, i dont know why ppl still cast her
she probably got a sponsor
I am sory to said this ..if naeun unbearable...are you bearable????dont judge too fast..it will be better to watch first...peace...naeun fighting...
