Mega drama “East of Eden” seems to be experiencing some internal troubles, as its star Song Seung-heon skipped Wednesday’s reading without any advance notice. The cast of “East of Eden” has held reading sessions every Wednesday.
Some speculate that Song’s absence had to do with the recent bow-out of Lee Da-hye, a female costar. Lee decided to quit the show because, unlike in the original synopsis, her character’s importance in the show was greatly reduced. Consequently, actors and actresses who played Lee’s parents and associates are also likely to be dropped from the show.
The spectacular drama was famous for its star-studded cast featuring Song, Han Ji-hye, Yeon Jeong-hoon, Lee Yeon-hee, and Lee Da-hye, as well as its complicated plot involving babies switched at birth, family rivalry, revenge, and, of course, star-crossed lovers. However, the show recently faced some troubles with ridiculous plot development and late scripts. Some actors voiced their complaints when the show’s main writer came to the reading on Wednesday and the confrontation apparently ended up in a shouting match. The future of this ambitious show is at peril and so is the prospect for its overseas sales.
