Well this new drama title certainly captures the “hire an actor to play a fake grandson” central plot a whole lot more. The K-drama formerly titled Tree Dies on Their Feet is now called Curtain Call and has secured the actors and actress who will be taking their curtain call once the drama is all over. Ha Ji Won has confirmed mere days after being offered the female lead role and she will be playing opposite Kang Ha Neul and Jung Hae In. She plays a department store President and granddaughter of the founder who is a North Korean woman played by Youn Yuh Jung. Ha Ji Won hires Kang Ha Neul‘s two bit actor to pretend to be her grandmother’s son from North Korea that she has been separated from for many years in order to fulfill her grandmother’s dying wish. Jung Hae In plays the chaebol son of a retail group. The drama is heading into production in the coming months and I CANNOT WAIT!

The cast are solid, known for their talents rather than their faces alone.
Jung Hae-In in a chaebol role? It will be the first time!
I'm really happy to see Ha Ji-Won in a new drama! With Kang Ha-Neul as a lead, nice combo!
Same here, can't wait! ?

@Jack Sim Yeah that's what I've been doing. Dunno why this happens. must be some glitch lol
Kang Ha Neul in another drama, AND with a solid cast. Today is a good day ?
All 3 are skilled actors/actress. I hope the writing and directing will compliment their talents. I like that they changed the title as well. I hope it's available on Netflix. Can't wait!
What in the actual fuk is that Ha Ji-Won my goodness this woman doesn't age at all. God Dayum.. This feels like here younger self- 20 years ago. She holds well. I wanna try whatever she is doing seems like she found the fountain of youth
This actually sounds promising and seems like an emotional plot. I quite like HJW, hope she'll finally rise back to success with this.
Did HaeIn confirm? I must have missed that.
finally, a new project with HJW. can't wait. I so happy to see her again. I hope this project is well written and will be well executed, too. The cast so far is solid.
I don’t like JHI but i love both HJW & KHN so I guess I’ll be tuning in to this drama
Can't stand JHI either. Ugh. But HJW is forever bae and Sky is a good actor so I'll check this out for them.
