Chicago Typewriter Confirms Leads Yoo Ah In, Im Soo Jung, and Go Kyung Pyo

This is an impressive one-two punch now confirmed for upcoming tvN drama Chicago Typewriter, two Blue Dragon and Baeksang winners playing the leads with a script by screenwriter Jin Soo Wan who wrote Kill Me Heal Me and The Moon Embraces the Sun. Yoo Ah In and Im Soo Jung are onboard for the drama along with Go Kyung Pyo who has signed on to play the second male lead. This drama initially had equally big names linked to playing the leads including Kim Soo Hyun and Park Shin Hye, at one point, but I’m really happy with the confirmed cast of talented and eclectic acting heavyweights. The drama premieres at the end of March after Tomorrow With You on Fri-Sat so filming is scheduled to commence this week.

The synopsis of Chicago Typewriter describes writers living in 1930’s Japanese colonial ruled South Korea who are reincarnated in the present day into a bestselling writer stuck in a rut, a ghostwriter with mysterious background, and an anti-fan of the bestselling writer. Also joining in supporting roles are Kwak Si Yang and Goblin’s Secretary Kim Jo Woo Jin.

  I likes shin se kyung a lot for working with her twice. lol. I liked him and moon. I think in real life he prefers Noonas. lol I remember him mentioning he dated older women in a interview. not surprised, he’s very mature for his age.

The only thing im concern is the schedule, they seems to quite behind. TWY finish the end of march, they only have about a month left. Normally they should start filming 2 months before the air date. This drama gonna be really really live shooting or they gonna stop one or two weeks for filming to catch up. Either way as long as they keep the quality of the drama.
