A brand with such good taste as to pair up new television darlings Park Bo Gum and Kim Go Eun for a ad campaign is certainly a savvy cookie in my eyes. Cable network tvN has been rolling in the ratings thanks to Answer Me 1988 and Cheese in the Trap, and while both are entire cast efforts for sure … Continue reading →
The first weekend of January in the new year 2016 is almost at an end, which means new tvN Mon-Tues drama Cheese in the Trap will have its long awaited premiere on January 4th. I’ve only recently ratcheted my excitement up from curiosity to anticipation thanks to a very interesting long five minute preview. All the leads are showcased in … Continue reading →
It feels a bit like a ball, all that attention on the casting of upcoming tvN drama Cheese in the Trap, and then seemingly less attention now that it’s filming and releasing promos and previews.

The switch has just flipped for me with respect to upcoming tvN Mon-Tues drama Cheese in the Trap. This drama got tons of early publicity thanks to the casting carousel, and it will soon validate whether the final cast was all suitably selected, but for now all eyes trained on tvN are on the Fri-Sat hit drama that is Answer … Continue reading →

That’s why I haven’t read Cheese in the Trap and don’t plan to because I really like the cast and would love … Continue reading →
Things are looking up for tvN on its current Fri-Sat time slot with Answer Me 1988, but the same stickiness quotient and buzz doesn’t seem to be there for the Mon-Tues offering Bubblegum. I’m banking both for the holidays when I have more time, but it feels like the Mon-Tues slot in general doesn’t get as much interest for the … Continue reading →
The first drama poster for Cheese in the Trap is an effortless breath of fresh air. Looking at it makes me feel cleansed, like so much manufactured connections and narrative tropes are washed away in the candid snap of leads Park Hae Jin and Kim Go Eun in a moment of drama production joy. The drama was followed closely during … Continue reading →
Filming has started on tvN drama Cheese in the Trap, a production that’s courted a lot of feedback since it was announced all thanks to fans of the original webtoon being very vocal about the casting. I’m not terribly invested in the drama but am very interested in checking out the end product. Not having read the webtoon, and not … Continue reading →
One casting was confirmed last week and the other just dropped, but since I didn’t get around to writing about the former then it’s more efficient to just lump it with the latter for the purpose of this post. Upcoming tvN drama Cheese in the Trap gets more mouse in its clutches with the addition of a leading lady in … Continue reading →
Things are not looking good for the production of upcoming cable network drama Cheese in the Trap, at least not from the perspective of how many potential leading ladies have or may have fled from the casting offer.

The casting train is moving fast for in development cable drama Cheese in the Trap. Not letting a high profile pass from idol-actress Suzy deter the production, the media is reporting that movie actress Kim Go Eun is now in talks for the leading lady role.
