Princess Hours |
Wheee!!! I've been waiting for someone to remake this, it's one of my favorite kdramas about a commoner who marries a prince.
Princess Hours (or Goong) is based on a Korean manhwa by Park So-hee. The kdrama had great music, beautiful scenery and great chemistry between the leads. Here's the leads in the Thai version. They're in the early twenties, similar to kdrama cast at the time.

OneHD is also remaking City of Light : The O.C. Thailand, one of two teen dramas that are in the works.The other one is the smash hit Gossip Girl. Both are based off American tv shows. Gossip Girl is airing now. And Ugly Betty Thailand aired in April 2015.
Last, but not least, there's a rumor OneHD is remaking Boys Over Flowers. No word yet on casts, so this might not be real, but given the interest in remaking other kdramas, BOF seems sure to come up sooner or later.
What dramas would you like to see remade into lakorns? And do you think this is a good or bad trend?

I want to see Playfull Kiss but it won't be airing soon... gonna be a long wait
ReplyDelete"I'm Sorry I Love You" that's the remake I want to see! I liked Punch in Taddao Bussaya.
ReplyDeletei want to see ugly betty thai version, coffee prince thai version, playfull kiss so badyl...anyone who know where to download..please share..hehe..tq
ReplyDeletejust curious, does anybody knows who is the main actress of ugly betty thailand?
ReplyDeleteI wish they would have picked another drama besides A LOVE TO KILL. It was such a bore to me! Yes, Rain was in it and so was Shin Minah, but, I didn't like it too much. They could have picked a better drama to remake...but why are lakorns ALWAYS A REMAKE?? how many times are they going to recycle a kidnap her/rape her/get her pregnant/she runs away because she loves him but hates him because he raped her/he finds her/apologizes/they make up/they get married????
ReplyDeletesure, Sawan Biang is one of my all-time favorite dramas, but those Thai writers need to come up with new storylines; especially storylines that don't involve the 3rd worldness of Thailand.
Don't get me wrong, I LOVE LAKORNS, I'm just tired of remakes! and please employ more real Thai actors.
And, I wish they would stop retiring their veteran actresses in for new baby faces. I don't like them pairing little babies who are 19 or 20 with actors who are in their early 30s or late 30s. I especiallay did not like Mark Prin playing a 30 something business man when he was only 19! OMG!! This is why I take breaks from lakorns sometimes.
ReplyDeleteActually, I refuse to watch those kinds of dramas now. I'd rather watch an experienced actress working with an experienced actor than to watch a super young fresh-faced pretty in a drama with a story line that called for someone older.
DeleteI'm sorry I love you n A love to kill , their both have a sad ending .. so I prefer boys before flower or taiwan drama why why love .... anyway , thx !!
ReplyDeleteThailand should have been making dramas like this from the beginning instead of doing slap-kiss-rape shananigans, which I love, but they can get tiring! They use the same actors over and over all the time,they use TOO YOUNG of actors to play mature roles (just because they're pretty), and they retire GOOD ACTORS who are over 25-30something TOO early!
ReplyDeleteI'm excited for all these remakes, but I'm disappointed int them. There's too much prejudice and age discrimination in the world of lakorn.
I know how you feel ;-(
