MBC has invested nearly $25 Million into its new drama East of Eden. Now you’re asking yourself what $25 Million might get you? Well first off it’ll get you a laundry list of stars. Song Seung Hun (Summer Scent), Yun Jung Hoon (Sad Love Song), Park Hae Jin (Marrying the Mafia II), Jo Min Ki (Iljimae), Lee Da Hae (My Girl, Hello! Miss), Lee Yeon Hee (One Fine Day), and Han Ji Hye (I Hate You, But It’s Fine), as they have all been signed to be in a new mega budget drama. As far as the plot…well it’s your standard clichéd Korean drama. The drama will be about two men whose fates are crossed from the day they were born. Song Seung Hun’s character witnessed his father’s death and seeks revenge on the man who did it, Jo Min Ki. Unknown to everybody is the fact that Song Seung Hun’s younger brother, Yun Jung Hoon, was switched at birth with Min Ki’s son, Park Hae Jin……..see I’m already lost and I’m only half way through this plot. Jung Hoon becomes a prosecutor to help seek revenge with his brother, but what happens when he’s not real brothers with Song Seung Hun, but rather the real son of Min Ki. WTF?! I haven’t even mentioned any of the fine ladies in this drama yet! What the hell were the writers thinking about when they came up with this plot?! I bet they thought they could come up with any damn plot, then stick a bunch of high profile actors in there and make a hit. Let’s hope it turns out to be a hit…you’d think with $25 Million you could get a fresh new story…guess not. MBC’s East of Eden will air in Korea on Mondays and Tuesdays in August.
