The USD 25 million blockbuster drama, East of Eden spared no expense at their media conference. More like a concert, artists on the East of Eden OST, Seeya and FT Island performed in front of five thousand people who were at hand to cheer on the cast and crew.
The event was held on location in the southern tip of Korea in South Gyeongsang province.
East of Eden will air on MBC on August 25, 2008.

@ 3am. FIRST! even though this is my first time posting
what a good looking cast. with that budget and this set of faces, i really hope the drama’s story will be worth watching beyond the aesthetics. that song seung-heon is really hot.
i can’t wait for this drama to air!:)
Third! What an allstar cast!
I lurv LeeYeonHee!!
han jihye is fabulous and all, but her pleated, high waisted pants are KILLING me. brrrr.
SSH is sooooo FINE!
looking forward to this drama
the casts are really great.
i am so excited to watch this drama.
i love SSH.
i like Lee Yeon hee & Han Ji-hye.
i don’t like Lee Da-hae but
i don’t hate her either.
*..*
Wow. you take one event and make it into 3 post.
I cannot wait for this show!!
SSH looks smokin hottttttt
The cast looks great, but this drama has got too much hype!
Now that fans’ expectations are sky high, hopefully it won’t turn out to be a disappointment!
Lee Da Hae is pretty, but she needs to add a little more meat to her bones!
great cast except Lee Dahae because she can’t act.
The casts are great, if the story is just plain like old dramas it would be damn boring. I hope it’s a good drama.
Damn I want to watch this drama! The cast are absolutely great! ^^ Both male and female cast are literally gorgeous~
Hopefully all the hype doesn’t ruin the drama!
And yes, it’s a beautiful cast!
SSH. is another dreamy old guy!
(What do the ladies see in Yonsama???)
it’s going to be GREAT
it HAS to be.
yes, this show is worth watching!! there is so many good actress in there! i’m so looking forward to this
I absolutely adore the cast.
Do you know if there will be subtitles? I hope so!
I love the cast…
they’re ALL good lookin’
i’m excited for this drama but daaaang…. 50 episodes that’s one hell of a long show.
SSH and Han Ji Hye would look better together!!!!
YJH and Lee Dae Hee don’t look that good together either…
Hmm…Lee Dae Hee will end up with SSH in the drama…
Where’s Dennis Oh?!
wow, this is like one of the only posts i’ve seen where you aren’t criticizing them or making fun of them..quite surprising lol . Feels abnormal
This, believe it or not, is the first time I’ve been so excited about a k-drama.
Why?
Because it’s got 3 of my favorite actors/actresses in it:
-Lee Yeonhee (absolutely cute __<
and just so you know, I’m rooting for a
SSH + LYH ending.
i love that couple. they’re the best—second to TaeSu. <3
Lee Da-hae is beautiful but my god…gain some weight!
this is going to either make it or break it. all the hype…remember? it’s like air city. and air city bombed.
Fantastic cast!
Yayy~~ looking forward to this…hope it lives up to the hype
East of Eden?
Isn’t that a James Dean classic? hahah Oh boy!
Lee Yeon heeis so pretty
but her acting sucks.
I love that dress but it looks too big on her.
I hope~~~~I really hope she improved on her acting.
To SP: careful, you’re showing your age there.
I’m looking forward to this drama not just because of the cast but also because of the budget. What I like about Korean dramas is that, sometimes(as in the case of this drama) they have production values same or better than films. What I like especially with big-budgeted kdramas is the fact that they’ve got a proper soundtrack, music that is fully orchestrated and made especially for the drama just like, again, in films. Only thing I don’t look forward to is the length, 50 episodes. In small doses, who knows, I could probably persevere. I only hope they don’t fall flat on their faces and deliver a disappointing or, as in the case of ‘The Lobbyist’, mediocre drama.
p.s. I hope they leave all the spoken English to Dennis Oh. Creditability is thrown out the window once a Korean actor speaks English and the storyline dictates he/she was meant to have been born and raised in America, Canada or Australia!
This is wacko. There is an unbalance b/t the actors..
I just read through my own post and I should have written credibility instead of creditability. Don’t know what I was thinking. Sorry. How embarassing!
this is the first time i have liked an entire casts’ outfits at those opening-drama-media-conference things. Someone always manages to make a big fashion no-no! again lee da hae is too skinny- if i were a guy i would be totally afraid to act with her- like what if i fell on her and her bones break and the drama would have to be put on hold?
I love Han Ji Hye. I am so happy to see that she has gained some weight in all the right places. So much so that she curves and hips now. Not so crazy about her outfit but boy she pulled it off. Only, she can do that.
Ji Hye, fighting….
i actually want to see this one.
cuz of parkhaejin and the story
line is like wow, gonna be a hit
I think it’s a great cast..
I like you Lee Da-Hae, but i think you should really gain some weight..:)
HJH loooks great!
wow! MBC is very confident on this drama that they even held the hand print on the cement. i only saw that sort of ceremony in SBS “LOVERS in PARIS” victory party for hitting 57% as its highest rating.
i hope with the many buzz on this series, the writers will not fail the audience. i love SSH and i want this series to be a success, but if the writer will simply rely on these stars…that would not keep the audience. the writers must make every episode exciting to keep and attract audience.
~Wow…great casting…
I can’t wait for to see EOE…
Luvvvvvvv Lee Da Hae…..
Hope she will end together SSH oppa….~
ahw. you were nice in this one. haha
where can i watch this?(in america)
i love lee da hae…very pretty and can act so well!!! God bless to da hae!!!
Definately will take time out to watch this K-Drama once it’s out…only because Lee Da Hae is in it! I like Yeon Jung-hoon too – think he is really under-rated. Song Seung-heon for me is a bit over-rated – he’s good looking and all but most times I cannot “feel” the characters he portrays – hopefully he doesn’t act with a flat face in this series.
Lee Yeon Hee is gorgeous as always <3
I’m also rooting for a LYH+SSH ending ^^
LEE DA HAE!! YEON JUNG HOoN!
love them!
SSH too!
i’m really looking forward to this drama. LOVE THE CASTS!
da hae looks so classy here. WOW.
They all look great! I agree with the others though, Lee Da Hae has lost too much weight. I’m hoping for her to end up with Song Seung Heon, although if he ended up with Han Ji Hye that would be okay too…don’t think it’s gonna happen though. I just think that Lee Yeon Hee’s too young to be paired with SSH. I’m thinking they should have casted another actress for her role, nothing against her, she’s pretty and all, but she seems like his little sister…
I’m gonna have to wait until more episodes have aired before I start watching…hope it’s good!
