Fresh from the success of the Chinese-Korean collaboration, the TV drama "Descendants of the Sun" ruling South Korea and China's TV ratings as well as track sales, another regional collaboration has been formed to create a drama that revolves around a global pop star and a travel agency owner.
Tapped to star in the Japanese-Korean-Chinese collaboration is Infinite's L, or Kim Myung-soo, for the new cable series titled "Blue in My Heart." The 10-episode drama would likely air over cable station MBC Dramanet, and also simultaneously in the three Asian nations, reported Soompi.
The story revolves around the romantic relationship between the owner of a small travel agency in the Philippines and a famous pop star. L plays the role of Kang Jae Ho, the young man who goes on a trip to the Philippines and falls in love with the place that he opted to stay for good.
Dramabeans revealed that L's character would open a travel guide shop, named Happy Walking, which has one employee and two tour buses. Despite being a small agency, because he is known for honesty and hard work, South Korean travel agencies refer Philippine-bound tourists to him.
The entertainment website hints that the pop star would likely come to the Philippines for a photo shoot, concert or a fan event. And since romance would blossom, it would be difficult to make her return to South Korea.
L has been cast before in dramas such as "The Time I've Loved You," "Master's Sun," "Cunning Single Lady" and "She's So Lovable." The show's writer is Yoo Young Eun, whose credits include "Romance Island" and "Glowing She." The show would begin shooting in April through June.
