As far as I know, Goong is based on a manhwa. I am not quite sure what a manhwa is but I guess that it is the counterpart of "manga" in Japan. I am curious about the story line of Goong. What should happen in Goong 2 if it was continued? At least I would like to know what would happen next should Goong 2 be continued.

I have also read that Yoon Eun Hye pulled out of the project (Goong 2) because she had ended her contract with Eight Peaks which is handling the project. I think Eight Peaks improperly handled the career of YEH that is why she changed her talent agency.

The original manhwa (japan: manga) is also called "Goong"

Here are two links~ you can read it for free^^

http://www.mangareader.net/462/goong.html

http://www.onemanga.com/Goong/ (Scroll to the bottom for chapters. Click the chapter and if u see nothing after clicking it, just refresh)

I think Eight Peaks split into 2 groups after "Goong"..

One was with the director and other executives (They planned for Goong 2, but ultimately made Goong S. Title change is most likely due to legal issues)
But the other group controlled YEH's contract..and didn't allow YEH to film Goong 2..

Troubles with Eight Peaks started with this..
then several additional things happened that resulted in YEH ultimately leaving..
You can also look up wikipedia YEH page for details

that's sad...

Goong is my most loved Kdrama ever since, i don't like any other one to play YEH's role in it
i'm still wishing that they pair JJH and YEH again in no other drama but Goong

You guys think we can try to persuade them to go for Goong 2? I don't think all the Characters have aged so much for this to be impossible, plus, the story really ended with the chance to create a sequel, the spin-off Goong S is ok but I think a sequel to the original Goong would be far better than anything else... There are a lot of chance especially of they see it profitable....

Since Goong is what made me a YEH fan, I have to comment on this thread. I agree with Ed Bautista that the time lapse would not be a problem. In fact, I think it might actually be a benefit. As now the characters could be married with kids (I believe they had a picture with a baby at the end of the last episode on the DVDs).

I have not read the manhwa, but there is always of lots of material to generate a plot from when a monarchy, politics, family relations, international relations, etc... are all involved.

Though, this is most likely going to never happen, one can always hope!

I have a very very weird idea about this... Does anyone know if the former production company (Eight Peaks or Group Eight) who produced this still active? If not, why not allow The House Company (Eun Hye's) buy the rights to produce this? If money is the problem, we can all help out? I remember Neri and other fan base organize contributions for donations, etc. As far as I can remember, Goong has been based up to the 14th volume of the manwha and both the manwha writer and the script writer are still willing to go for a sequel... Though I think we need all the support we can get to persuade all the parties involved to do this, plus are the former cast and crew still willing to do this because no matter how much we want this, if all related parties are not interested anymore, there is nothing we can do but dream and hope...

Not sure how financially doable it would be to buy the rights. Though, I cannot say if the entertainment industry in Korea is setup the same way. However in the US, this is roughly how things work:

An entertainment company will buy an "option" to the rights of book, novel, graphic arts, etc... for roughly 12-18 month span. The cost of the option varies anywhere from $500 to 10% of the final "rights price" depending upon the popularity/demand for the property.

Now movies and TV shows use different formulas, (I only know of examples for movies, so this is not an exact match) regarding actual "rights price" when the company is ready to make the movie/tv show. In the case of a movie the final price will be in the hundreds of thousands (US dollars) for lesser known works. In the case of best sellers it will be in the millions (US dollars) though usually does not exceed 3% of a movie budget (a blockbuster Hollywood movie will have a budget above $100 million).

Getting back to Goong season 2, since the "rights holder" will know that the 1st Goong was successful. They will obviously ask for top dollar for the "rights" purchase.

NOTE: All of the above is in US Dollars, there is a 1100 Won to 1 US dollar (roughly). Also, since I do not live in Korea I am unsure what the average costs/budget of the Korean entertainment industry are. I would assume they are smaller than the US because the differences in the respective populations and size of economies.
