The roles played by Gong Hyo Jin, Kim Soo Hyun, IU, and Cha Tae Hyun in KBS 2TV’s star-studded drama “Producer” have been revealed.

Gong Hyo Jin will play a PD with ten years of experience in the industry who is smart, haughty, and never holds back in letting people know what she thinks.

Kim Soo Hyun will play a rookie PD who wanted to be a prosecutor but chooses this career path wholly for the sake of love and women.

IU will depict a famous celebrity who became a trainee when she was 13 years old. She is called “ice princess” for her poker face and complete control over her emotions.

Cha Tae Hyun will play a seasoned PD who, like Gong Hyo Jin, has worked in the industry for ten years. He has worked on a lot of programs but has no single masterpiece to call his own.

Meanwhile, “Producer” is slated to start filming on April 2. According to an insider, “The filming sites for the first official day of shooting will be around the Yeouido area,” which is the actual broadcasting center of Seoul.

The drama is highly anticipated, not just because of its star-studded cast but also because it will be written by writer Park Ji Eun, who wrote “My Love from the Stars.”

Who are you most looking forward to seeing in “Producer?” (I would guess everyone reading this here would pick IU, huh?)
