Entourage drops pants in first teaser
by girlfriday
At last, here’s the first real teaser for tvN’s Entourage, the remake of the HBO series about a movie star and his entourage of buddies navigating their way through showbiz and enjoying all the perks along the way. One of the perks, apparently, is traveling to red carpet events sans pants. Now, I would never knock anyone for being pantsless, but why the heck are they fully dressed on top?
The Korean remake stars Seo Kang-joon (Cheese in the Trap) as the hot young actor on the rise, and Park Jung-min (You’re All Surrounded) as his best friend and manager. Lee Dong-hwi (Answer Me 1988) plays their carefree childhood friend, and Lee Kwang-soo (Dear My Friends) is the star’s has-been actor cousin. And last but not least, Jo Jin-woong (Signal) is the power agent who makes all their dreams of fame and fortune a reality.
The fully pre-produced drama just wrapped filming on September 26 in Busan, and concluded with one final cameo from Lee Sung-min (Memory, Misaeng), who did it as a favor for his buddy Jo Jin-woong (they’re currently shooting the movie Sheriff together, and were both in Kundo: Age of the Rampant). The four-month drama shoot included an impressive cameo lineup, with the likes of Ha Jung-woo, Song Ji-hyo, Kang Haneul, and Kim Sung-kyun, among others, stopping by to lend credibility to the drama about the entertainment industry.
I’m still waiting for the glitz and glam (tuxes and boxers don’t count!), but I’m sure the party’s just getting started. I do think they missed a big opportunity for a laugh in the teaser when they started out with the wide shot of everyone without pants. Why wouldn’t you shoot them waist-up first, and then do the no-pants reveal? Wasted opportunity for a joke, I tell you. I do like Jo Jin-woong’s single line: “Let’s put ’em on.”
Friday-Saturday drama Entourage premieres November 4.

Bad tvN! *smacks with newspaper* First sweaty JCW in a tank top and now this?
Now I want to demand that the entire cast (especially people doing cameos) has to appear pants-less in a scene.

I happen to stumble across this video, but basically it's what girlfriday wanted for the sudden 'no pants' reveal! It's a teaser video for the tvN 10th anniversary awards, and basically all the actors ask each other whether they think they would get an award for their past works in tvN
Although it did reveal the no pants part a little early (when panning over the those in the back seats) but well it's quite a funny video with more dialogue haha

It has Chinese subs for those who understand it :) If you want me to give a rough translation I could too :)

Haha. All of them starred in earlier dramas with tvN; Signal, Cheese in the Trap, Reply Me 1988 & Friends (not sure what show Park Jung Min starred in though). They were asking each other if they have a chance at winning a prize in the tvN awards. It's actually a 2-in-1 promotion of 10th Anniversary tvN awards & Entourage.

Ohh I remember now. Didn't watch Valid LOve though. It goes to show that tvN is now considered one of the big broadcasters now. Quality shows with great writing and cast, except for the travesty that was Cheese in the Trap

Yes! Was just gonna mention the tvN 10 Awards promo. Speaking of which, I can't wait!!! The list of nominations are seriously so hard to choose JUST ONE from each category because most was all so winning!

Oh my gosh, that was hilarious. Thanks for sharing that link. I did a little digging and this is the same link for the tvn 10 awards x entourage except without the Chinese subs attached for anyone who wants to see it.

Omg, I can't believe that HA JUNG WOO is making a cameo appearance in a DRAMA! :O
Ha Jung Woo is hardly ever in dramas. He hasn't appeared in a drama for almost 10 years.

Ooooo I have never watched the HBO version of Entourage but I must say I'm very pleased with the casts.
This one looks like something I'd enjoy.
Out of curiosity, I do wonder how is it TvN manages to get all these awesome dramas in their cable tv shows? Is it because they're a cable TV? I'm not familiar with the ones in Korea but in Malaysia there's two government owned channels, the rest is publicly owned by MNC (yet controlled by the government) and there's the cable tv paid only channels..
tvn has never disappointed me so far. xD

Jo Jin-woong, Choi Myoung-gil,Yoon Ji-hye <3.
Hard to pass this up with all the cameos from some of my favorites - Ha Jung-woo and director Park Chan-wook, Lee Sung-min.
Jo Jin-woong + Yoon Ji-hye as a married couple. Awesome pairing!

totally my 1st thought,
wearing pants is fast and people from outside will think you wear a proper dress since your top is covered,

Exactly. I remember seeing this in some other drama. You don't wear pants so that they stay wrinkle-free.

I'll admit, looking at the picture I was like "What's wrong? What pants were dropped? Why are they yelling?" And then I saw the teaser and was a little let down that no pants were dropped during it.
I'm excited for this drama though. Bring on the fabulous!

Yet another role Seo Kang Joon was born to play. (As messed up as it was bts, he was a great Baek Inho.) I'm excited to see this entire cast, I'm not concerned about their abilities to bring these characters to life at all. Please, please, let the material be great!

I agree. I'm a fan of hbo's entourage and I think the production team did a really good job of casting actors. This remake is not going to be able to show much nudity, but it's going to be edgier than a typical cable drama, especially with the new and later time slot.

Seo Kang-joon!!! He impressed the socks outa' me in Cheese and despite how crappy that drama got, my love for In-ho and SKJ's portrayal never changed. He was so good in that drama, so I hope it wasn't a fluke and he can keep up the fantastic job he's done.
