Though the popularity of some recent South Korean dramas has boosted globally but there are some of them which consider old gem and superior in the world of k-drama. If you have newly entered this world then you may not familiar with these legendry dramas. So, don’t be worried, here will be introducing you to one classic South Korean drama that adored by fans till now. We are talking about ‘Coffee Prince’ which you must have heard the name or even if you haven’t seen it yet. Coffee Prince is the most hit and classic ones that made its premiere long back in 2007. Indeed, it’s been a decade and yet we are still waiting for season 2 with the same desperation and excitement. Finally, there seems a ray of light in some information that we have collected related to Coffee Prince Season 2 to serve in this post. Check it out below.
In view of the novel of a similar name composed by Lee Sun-mi, Coffee Prince is a romance and comedy-drama which depicts the story of an unlikely romance between a tomboyish girl who dresses like a man to get work, and a young food realm tycoon. Directed by Lee Yoon-jung, the drama was a super hit and won many awards. Many other countries adopted the show to make a remake in their own language following its successfulness which includes Thai, Chinese, and Malaysian.
Coffee Prince Season 2 Release Date
Consisting of 17 episodes, Coffee Prince aired from July 2, 2007, to August 28, 2007, on MBC’s Mondays and Tuesdays at the 21:55 (KST) time slot. The show was not only broadcasted locally but also internationally covering Japan, the Philippines, Thailand, Malaysia, Middle East, India, and Chile. As soon it came on the floor, the show impresses a large number of audiences globally won honors like 1st Korea Drama Awards, MBC Drama Awards, 44th Baeksang Arts Awards, and many more. Therefore, it’s obvious after seeing such dramas, people will want more, and that led to our concern about whether we will ever get to see the sequel of this gem again or not.
In 2007, after a while when the drama got released, MBC was back then also considering renewing the show for the second season. But at that time of the male protagonist of the show, Gong Yoo was set to be enrolled for his military service so there was no point in making the sequel without the main lead and therefore MBC had to drop the idea of season 2. Now when both the male and female lead is well set on their separate career, the sequel could be possible. The chances of Coffee Prince season 2 appearing after 14 years are low but we still hope that we get to live the time of seeing the phenomenal chemistry between Gong Yoo and Yoon Eun-hye through the screen.
