:-) Thank you! :-) I am happy that you liked the article! :-)

Coffee Prince was Gong Yoo breakout performance and transformed him into a star. In regards to Yoon Eun Hye, you are correct, Goong made her into a star but Coffee Prince made her into an A-list, therefore the drama launched them both to stardom, albeit at different levels.

:-) I know! :-)

:-) I agree! :-)

The Taiwanese drama Hana Kimi was very popular. Whether or not it was responsiblefor the idea of creating a gender bender drama: Coffee Prince, in Korea is unknown. Did it start the gender bender trend? Is a strong possibility considering how popular it was, therefore you might be correct, however, Coffee Prince does mark the begining of an upward trend in gender bender roles as well. As part of the Korean wave. Coffee Prince is a 'landmark' in dramaland and has contributed to the expansion of Korean wave worldwide. Coffee Prince projected the concept to a global scale and after the drama many have followed with varying degrees of success.

:-) Thank you so much! :-) I hope you enjoy Coffee Prince! Gong Yoo was amazing in the drama! Let us know if you have liked it once you watch it! :-)

:-) You are correct. It's 10 years since Hana Yori Dango 2, the Japanese version of the drama. Boys over Flowers, the Korean version only aired in 2009. This year is their 8th anniversary! :-)
