tvN working on a prequel series to 'Hospital Playlist', set during the characters' college years
According to media outlet reports on June 1 KST, tvN has begun preparations for a prequel series to the hit drama series 'Hospital Playlist'. The prequel will be set during Lee Ik Joon, Chae Song Hwa, Kim Jun Wan, Ahn Jeong Won, and Yang Seok Hyung's college years, 20 years before the events of 'Hospital Playlist' and 'Hospital Playlist 2'.
The prequel series will not be directed by Shin Won Ho PD, but he intends on participating as a creator. Additionally, in the prequel series, the main characters will be played by younger actors rather than the original cast members of 'Hospital Playlist', including Jo Jung Suk, Jeon Mi Do, Jung Kyung Ho, Yoo Yeon Seok, and Kim Dae Myung.
Shin Won Ho PD and the production crew are currently carrying out auditions to find the perfect actors who will fill in for the roles of young Lee Ik Joon, Chae Song Hwa, Kim Jun Wan, Ahn Jeong Won, and Yang Seok Hyung.
