KBS’s new family drama Three Brothers
KBS has a new family drama in the lineup for weekends, Three Brothers [수상한 삼형제], which follows recent hit Sons of Sol Pharmacy. Perhaps in search of the same success, Three Brothers seems to be aiming for a similar tone and premise (though perhaps a bit less comedic than Sol Pharmacy), with its focus on family stories. How will its three brothers compare to the winning combination of Sol Pharmacy’s four?
With a week till its premiere, Three Brothers held its production press conference on the afternoon of the 12th. In attendance were the actors who comprise the titular trio, as well as the actresses who play their wives: Ahn Nae-sang, Oh Dae-kyu, and Lee Jun-hyuk are paired with Do Ji-won, Kim Hee-jung, and Oh Ji-eun.
In addition to its cast, the drama is attracting notice for its scriptwriter Moon Young-nam, whose has numerous hit dramas to her name: First Wives Club, Infamous Chil Princesses, A Rosy Life. This drama is being described as a heartwarming and lively conventional drama, which means that we probably won’t get much in the way of radically inventive ideas but can probably expect to be entertained with a reliable offering of family conflict and some makjang tendencies, if those kinds of dramas are up your alley.
According to PD Jin Hyung-wook, the drama draws upon three grown brothers jockeying for their parents’ favor. The standard mother- and daughter-in-law conflicts apply, as well as tensions between the brothers- and sisters-in-law. Ahn Nae-sang responded jokingly to a question asking for the difference between Three Brothers and Sol Pharmacy, answering, “Our characters are more wonderful,” adding, “Also, our script quality is excellent.”
I’m not sure I’m in the mood for a conventional drama, but if you are, Three Brothers premieres on October 17.

Weren’t all three actors in “First Wives’ Club” as brothers and brothers-in-law? Talk about recycling.
It’s our mini-Jo Gook Soo-In! I’m so happy to see him front and center with a big role in this drama.
Haha they all were in First Wives Club together. Hope it’s different from it..
I like the actor in the middle. He’s a good actor to me! Even though I can never remember his name..
In Infamous Chil Princesses, Park In Hwan was upset for having only daughters, so his oldest daughter is in the military. Now in Three Brothers, he gets to have three sons and one of them is in the military, heh heh.
Anyways, I have so many shows I need to catch up on, I don’t know if i can take on another *sigh*. I’ll still try this…
WOW, 4 out of the 6 people in the pictures were all in first wives’ club…..
god, i miss that drama =(
Jo Gook Assistant!!! yeah… i miss seeing him after City Hall, i’m glad now he will take on bigger role, more screen time for him
Haven’t see First Wives Club yet, but i saw The Chil Princesses, i think the premise will be almost the same, but if it’s the conventional drama like The Chill Princesses, i don’t know if i’m going to watched it though…
But maybe i’ll stick around for Lee Joon Hyuk
Aaaargh! I did NOT need another drama to follow! But I absolutely have to check in to see what Lee Jun-Hyuk is up to; he really gained a lot of my respect, with how well he played off of Cha Seung Won in City Hall.
Plus he is adorable. There, I admitted it.
Omg it’s Soo-in! Like everyone else said.
it’s the same dad ahahahaha.
Oooohhh, Do Ji-won…
(BTW, where is she in the pic of the girls???)
I haven’t seen her on any series (as far as I can tell) after her role as 경빈마마게었어 in 女人天下… (pardon me if the spelling will be wrong; I’m not too used to 대하사극 language
)
Anyhoo…HA SOO-IN!!! cutiepie from City Hall (2nd to Jo Guk)
:b 
Yeah I’m just too stocked up on dramas to watch right now! (Never thought I would be saying that a few weeks ago….)
It’s a happy problem though.
Just watched the last of sons of the sol house pharmacy, loved it, laughed and cried. Hurry and bring on Three brothers hope it’s just as good. I love Korean drama, I am 75 yrs young. Korean drama opened a new phase to my life . Thank You.
looking forward to this drama
park in hawn was in my preciuos child too and a lot of other dramas
just finished the son of the sol pharmacy loved the drama
loved very minute
I agree with bbm – Jo Guk assistant in City Hall? Great! If only for him, I will watch this new drama. He looks good too because of his boyish look, so I won’t miss this new show. Let us see how he delivers in this one. Again, ‘wish there will be a sequel to City Hall. Perhaps he can have a love interest there. Sorry, can’t have enough of City Hall!
I’m actually looking forward to this one. I didn’t like Son’s of Sol Pharmacy maybe because of the comedic side of it. Hope my expectations are right about this drama. I’ll be keeping an eye on this one!
