However, his agency Sim Entertainment announced on February 25 that nothing has been confirmed as of yet. Production company Group Eight, also behind 'Boys Over Flowers' and 'Pretty Man', is overseeing the Korean drama remake of 'Nodame Cantabile'.

The company has also stated that the premiere is being planned for after June of this year. 'Nodame Cantabile' is a Japanese drama based on a manga that portrays the love and dreams of students majoring in classical music.

There were previously rumors that IU would be cast as the female lead in the series. What do you think of Joo Won and IU playing Korean versions of Shinichi Chiaki and Megumi "Nodame" Noda?
