MBC have interest for Coffee Prince Season 2
Lead by Gong Yoo and Yoon Eun Hye, Korea’s MBC Channel’s popular drama Coffee Prince broadcasted Episode 17 Finale on the 26th August. Unfortunately, ratings were unable to break 30%, only reaching 27.7%. MBC has already expressed interest in filming a sequel
The night before, Coffee Prince’s actors and staff went to some Charcoal beef restaurant in Seoul for celebration party and to watch the finale together. On the night, bills were paid by female lead, Yoon Eun Hye. She and Gong Yoo both really liked CP, EH said “This drama was natural, simple and honest. On the filming sites, the atmosphere was very relaxed and pleasant/cheerful. Even though I had to cross-dress in the drama, giving up the chance to pretty myself, it was because of my natural dress up that lead to even more love from the public.”
Gong Yoo says: “I never even thought that the drama’s ratings would be able to border 30%, everyone really likes this drama, EH and I both felt that even if ratings performance wasn’t that good, it definitely is an outstanding drama. During my time filming the drama, it never felt like i was going to work, more like going to have fun. It’s been a while since i’ve had fun to this happy extent! So I need to thank EH and the director.” Gong Yoo also announced: “CP might be my last work of art/creation before I serve in the army, even though i’ve already received notice that i’m to enlist in October, but it might get postponed. However, at the lastest, i will still enlist within the year.”
Aside from this, alot of viewers wish for a sequel, even helping the channel in brainstorming ideas – pointing towards YEH’s Eunchan to become the “2nd store”’s boss. MBC also expressed interest in filming a sequel, but because of GY’S enlistment he may not be able to participate.

If you’re looking for a story for the second season, how ’bout bringing Han Kyul’s half brother to Seoul and making him Eun Sae’s love interest? Eun Sae’s supposed to be going to college so have her go to the women’s university near where the first shop is. Have the “half-brother” fall in love with Eun Sae’s character that he’ll be the one to “gender-switch” to attend the university so he could get close to Eun Sae.
His reason for travelling to Seoul could be because he’s being “rebellious” so he runs away from home to go see his half-brother. Being a newly matured guy, Han Kyul takes on the challenge of disciplining his half-brother. Han Kyul gets him involved in the second shop but he’s always going ‘missing’ because of his deception.
Eun Chan’s character would be the second shop’s Mr. Hong — fairy-god mother type character — to the half brother.

March 1st, 2008 at 1:30 am
it was really nice to hear that your going to have a sequel, but can you please wait until gong yoo finished his military service? please, please… the series won’t be complete without gong yoo, what we are all waiting is the romance of gong yoo and eun hye in the series so please wait for him
coffee prince is the number series here in the philippines..filipinos really love this series! keep it up!
March 1st, 2008 at 12:13 am
yes! 2 years is long but if 2 years later we can watch them – yoon eun hye and gong yoo, shooting the CP2, then its all worth it isn’t right? so please wait for gong yoo to come back! its a everyone-agreed that without either gong yoo or yoon eun hye, it wont be the original coffee prince!. i really hope that MBC will wait for gong yoo! afterall, he is the main lead together with yoon eun hye that actualli brings us to watch coffee prince! please wait for gong yoo!
AJA!!..
February 29th, 2008 at 11:36 pm
two years is quite a while but we are willing to wait for gong yoo. chemistry between EH and GY is really that great and the possible absence of GY in the sequel will mean a disaster… it would be better to wait after 2 years… i love coffee prince as well as the lead stars… keep up the good work EH and GY…
I love you GONG YOO…
February 29th, 2008 at 7:13 am
PLUS i agree with everyone on the fact that Coffe Prince will never be the same without Gong Yoo. waiting for 2 years is NOTHING to me as long as Han-Kyul will still be portrayed by Gong Yoo. Cause we guys know that it’s worth the wait, RIGHT?
let’s wait for Gong Yoo!
FIGHTING! ^_^
February 29th, 2008 at 7:02 am
i can’t believe that Coffee Prince is only 4th in Philippine TV ratings. arghhhhhh… im so frustrated!!
btw, i have a complete series dvd of coffee prince at home and after watching all of it, i watch my favorite scenes again and again EVERYDAY. That’s how obsessed i am with coffee prince. haha. i wish i can meet the tv show’s writer and director in real life. i idolize them soooo much!
February 29th, 2008 at 2:40 am
it would be great if there will be a part 2 right after gong yoo finished the army service, so that there will be an excitement!!!!!!!!!
it would really help them a lot because for sure gong yoo will learn many things during the service.
February 28th, 2008 at 11:30 pm
CP 2 please! With Gong Yoo!
February 28th, 2008 at 7:12 pm
sali ako sa funs club, pero kelan yan? dali !!!!!!!!!! Can’t wait to see them here in pinas. Feeling ko may kulang kapag natapos na ang series na ito. I wish the second would push through, i would definitely watch it.

February 23rd, 2008 at 3:04 pm
I just found this show on AZN and I’m in love! PLEASE GIVE US A SECOND SEASON! How bad does the Army need Mr Choi anyway.
February 23rd, 2008 at 11:49 am
I would love a sequel. However, I really hope that it picks up where it left off. I’ve noticed that most Korean, HK, Taiwanese dramas don’t match the sequel to the first version. And that’s a turn off. Sometimes they would replace characters. With that said, I would not be interested in the sequel if Gong Yoo wasn’t in it. The chemistry between the 2 leads were undeniable. My whole reason of loving this drama was because of their chemistry. I wouldn’t like it if Gong Yoo was replaced. I think it would be quite smart if they waited until Gong Yoo got back from the military to start the drama. I’m sure in two years people will remember CP still. CP is a unique drama that hasn’t been done before, therefore I’m sure people will still remember it as time passes. If you all love CP, please post on there that you would want Gong Yoo as the male lead. We all know the leads make all the difference in whether the drama does well or flops. PLEASE WAIT FOR GONG YOO !!!
February 23rd, 2008 at 4:34 am
PLEASE DO A SEQUEL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE COFEE PRINCE SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!
February 23rd, 2008 at 3:18 am
i really enjoy watching coffee prince.. when it was frst aired here in d philippines, i knw that people will going to like it.. it was funny and very interesting.. congratulations guys..
from jeff of The Philippines..
February 23rd, 2008 at 12:13 am
i really loved CP. And i really hope to see the sequel, but with Gong Yoo in it.
i think, i can wait till Gong Yoo finished his military services.
because he and Eun Hye is really a perfect match.
February 22nd, 2008 at 11:20 pm
coffee prince 2 won’t be the same without gong yoo so i really hope the sequel could wait until gong yoo is back from his military service. eun hye and gong yoo really looks perfect, i wish they could be together for real…
February 22nd, 2008 at 7:52 pm
i really love the coffee prince. it made me crazy and addicted everyday. i cant sleep if i will not watch the movie. i hope there would be a 2nd shop. with gong yoo. i really like gong yoo. im her no. 1 fan. i have crush on him. i wish he can make it through the 2nd shop! love you guys.. especially gong yoo. more powers to your movie.
