This thread is getting crazy fast and more exciting with each update!

No new updates for now goodnight for now! See you tomorrow, my noonas

I am not liking In-Ha’s mother, Cha-ok (based on her character description) she is callous and her priority is messed up- Career over family.

Mother and daughter met again after 10 years. But she considers In-Ha as just a rookie reporter with Pinocchio syndrome first and a daughter second. Grrr.

Since Cha-ok heads the social affairs department AND 1st female main anchor of “open-air station” as soon as she came back from her assignment as a correspondent to Washington DC (WOW, class A in journalism)… question is.. will Cha-ok be the boss of In-Ha? .. I am loving the complexity of the story.

I was mulling about this picture and this written note yesterday... until I got my answer.

I can't wait to find out which episode we will see this filming location for Pinocchio... apartment building?

Park Shin Hye And Lee Jong Suk Look Good Together

Script readings have started for the upcoming drama "Pinocchio" and already one thing is certain. Park Shin Hye and Lee Jong Suk look great together. These two stars look good next to just about any co-star but they really suit each other and they have the same kind of winning smile and sweet charisma.

They previously modeled together and now make a photogenic drama couple.
The script reading for the drama about rookie reporters took place at the SBS Ilsan Productions Center.

In "Pinocchio" Park Shin Hye plays Choi In Ha, a reporter, who has "Pinocchio syndrome." She cannot tell a lie or pretend to be something she is not or she starts hiccupping violently and gives herself away.

Park Shin Hye was last seen playing a poor girl in a private school in the drama "The Heirs" and as a fashion conscious queen in the film "The Royal Tailors."

Lee Jong Suk plays Choi Dal Po, a rookie reporter at a broadcasting company. He's handsome but does not know how to dress to impress, so people tend to underestimate him. However, he does have what it takes to succeed as a reporter. He's got a photographic memory and is articulate.
Lee Jong Suk was last seen in the medical spy drama "Doctor Stranger" and the film "Hot Young Bloods."

As idealistic rookie reporters Choi In Ha and Choi Dal Po will learn how to achieve a balance between seeking the truth and protecting their own interests.

The rest of the "Pinocchio" cast is appealing too.
Lee Pil Mo, last seen as the second male lead in "Emergency Couple," plays Hwang Gyo Dong, a perfectionist producer who was once a reporter.

Kim Young Kwang, who just starred in "Nine Plus Boys," plays Seo Bum Jo, a chaebol who drifted from working at a fashion magazine to try working on broadcast news. He will have all the fashion skills and visual appeal that Lee Jong Suk's character initially lacks. But viewers can expect that Lee Jong Suk's character will get a makeover and most likely the girl.

Lee Yu Bi, last seen in "Gu Family Book," plays Cha Hye Seung, a fan girl who wants to use her stalking skills as a reporter.

Jo Soo Won, who directed "Gapdong," will direct "Pinocchio." Park Hye Ryeon, who previously wrote "I Hear Your Voice" and "Dream High," is the screenwriter.

"Pinocchio will air next month following "My Lovable Girl."

'Pinocchio' Character Profile - Part 3

===YGN News Station===

Hwang Gyodong - Lee Pil Mo


He is known as the ‘City Cop Captain’ at YGN, meaning that he can go in and out of the police station whenever he wants. No one has ever seen him smile since he entered the company.

He’s not used to expressing his feelings to others. He speaks his mind towards his boss and is always strict to his juniors, therefore there is hardly a person who likes him in the company. However, holding tight the belief that ‘truth has the power to change the world’, he is a natural-born reporter.’

The eldest of six sons, he went to an all boy’s high school for all six years then graduated from a science and tech university. Having lived his life among men, he is severely lacking in knowledge about women and dating. Therefore, he is still ‘solo from birth’, even as he approaches the age of 40.

we have 2 more to identify and read about their characters in Pinocchio...
here's one....

Jang Hyun-gyu - ?

YGN’s ‘iljin reporter’. Famous for his impeccable strictness, everyone avoids him at all costs. Easily infuriated and moody; only backs down when the other side is even stronger than him.

Takes a dislike towards Gyodong, who he believes is too rigid. Likes to use methods to trip up people, and he is nicknamed “Jang Ddanji” (‘jang ddanji’ refers to the calf part of the leg, which wrestlers would use to trip up people in matches). However, he agrees with Gyodong on the meaning of ‘what is news’.

Lee Yongtak - ?

The leader of YGN’s broadcast department, also an announcer.

Personality is calm and never goes into a flying rage. Always wearing an impenetrable smile on his face, but reveals his unparalleled decisive power in times of crisis. He understands that for a reporter, his words is his power. Therefore he always exercises this power with discretion.

As an announcer, his appearance is priority at all times. Always carries spray moisterizer, oil film and chapstick.
