Lady Castle gets name change

Yoon Sang Hyun and Yoon Eun Hye

Yoon Eun Hye's comeback drama, Lady Castle has been "forced" to go through a title change, after answering a call from KBS to refrain from using any english words for the drama title. As a result, Lady Castle will now be known as Take Care of the Young Lady instead.

According to Lee Kim Productions, KBS had been working on a new spring policy (not compulsory, but encouraged), which aims to cut down on the use of English titles through its variety shows, dramas, current affairs, etc programs. Lee Kim Productions thus decided that Lady Castle needed a name change and organized a poll on the KBS website between 2 - 3 July, asking netizens to choose between Oh! My Princess (오! 나의 공주님) and Take Care of the Young Lady (아가씨를 부탁해). The titles are translated into english if you didn't know and it surely must be Lee Myung Bak's administration at work again. Take Care of the Young Lady won the poll in the end but Lee Kim Productions hasn't ruled out on the possibility on still using Lady Castle.

Yoon Eun Hye

We have heard earlier about Jung Il Woo and Yoon Sang Hyun joining Yoon Eun Hye and there's another new addition to the cast. Adorable child star of Speedy Scandal fame, Wang Suk Hyun will be joining the drama as well, playing Eun Hye's wealthy young cousin. Filming will begin very soon and it will premiere on 18th August.

Wang Suk Hyun


What would you name it as?

Take Care of the Young Lady (or something) is so much of a mouthful… and so’s the korean name XD
Cute little kid smile

Lady Castle was fine, but if not that than Oh! My princess would have been a catchier and better choice than “Take care of the young lady”. That title just sounds so dreary. BUT I am really looking forward to Yoon EunHye! And that cute little kid.

hmmmm im just wondering… even if we vote or make a poll… will it make any difference as to changing KBS’s spring policy?... I mean.. we won’t be able to change their or Lee Myung Bak Administration’s mind… I do wish it was in English.. “LADY CASTLE” (I mean I voted for this title cus it fits better) but I guess it will be better for it to be in Korean since it’s a K-drama. I kinda do understand Lee Myung Bak trying to cut down English titles… As a Korean, there’s too much English using in Korea… Like seriously ALOT… Korean language is getting diminished… Happy Together, Gag Concert, Music Bank… yeahh etcetc. they should start with those other non-KBS programs too! (Family Outing MBC Drama Triple… etcetc) But I guess it’s a good thing that the drama will get other people to watch it too & make non-Koreans to understand it better but it should be kept Korean… So overall, I’m for the Korean name.. I guess Take Care of the Young Lady sounds fine.. Yeah I’m kinda happy that they are not ‘encouraging’ English names to be used on dramas.

Lady Castle was a good title and the “Take care of the young lady” is a draggy long title but if its in korean its all good cant wait for this drama

 
LiL0's avatar

I think that it will be more beneficial in keeping their culture if the use Korean titles.

“Take Care of the Young Lady” sounds corny and if you ask me with a name like that how can you get high rating even if you have good actors in the drama.

 
nomnom-'s avatar

Take Care of the Young Lady is too lengthy.  too much words. Lady Castle ftw.

Lady Castle gets name change????

 
c:'s avatar

Wang Suk Hyun is adorable. >< ‘Oh! My Princess’ sounds weird to me. ‘Take Care of the Young Lady’ is too long for a title. People will shorten it TCYL probably. Lady Castle is good !

 
tomoko's avatar

Oooo… I voted “lady castle” but now that I think about it, 아가씨를 부탁해 sounds good too. I’m glad suk hyun is in it too. I loved him in speedy scandal.

 
orenjilover's avatar

I’m sooo looking forward to this new k-series!  I hope it’s a romantic comedy!!

The kid is adorable and Yoon Eun-hye is a wonderful performer.  I’m also looking forward to watching the relatively newcomer actor, who was also in 3 Men and 1 Mom (a small part).

OMG Huang Gi Dong, hahaha love him in speedy scandal. He’s very very adorable.

omo, Wang Seuk Hyun is so adorable! I’m glad he gets to play in here but I don’t know if I’ll be watching it though.

 
purplestar23's avatar

I like Oh! My Princess. ‘cause it reminds me of Ah My Goddess. This’ll be good because Wang Suk Hyun’s in it.

 
icecreeaamm's avatar

i’ll stick w/ lady castle=S
andwoot xD i lvoe that kid from speedy scandal raspberry!

 
xyukikox's avatar

Aww.. Wang Suk Hyun….. LOL. I wonder what kind of role he will play in the drama.

 
jeehyuni's avatar

@30, Yoon Sang Hyun’s not considered to be a relatively newcomer actor anymore since he was in the hit drama… Queen of Housewives. he kinda had a big part & he also starred in the sitcom called kiki island (or something)... as a major character as well.. so yeah…hmmmmmmm… He was a great actor! can’t wait to see a different side of him in this drama…

 
no avatar

omg i love that kid actor
hes soooooo cute in speedy scandal LOL

 
kari-o-kee's avatar

Lady Castle. Short and simple! =) Take Care of the Young Lady is long and kinda lame. KBS’ policy is pretty intriguing. =o

@33 I actually don’t like Oh! My Princess BECAUSE it’s too close to Ah! My Goddess. xD

 
raizeljoyce's avatar

what’s wrong with an English title?!

lol. Suk Hyun is soo cute! :3

 
sks020's avatar

I’m so excited by this drama.. and I absolutely love the cast. And now Suk Hyun is going to join?! This’ll be a must watch drama.. just because the kid is in it is enough reason to do so!! <333

tey should not change te title. Lady Castle was a nice title.

I would’ve chosen Lady Castle instead. It really gives you the REAL vibe of the upcoming drama. it has the feeling of wealth, royalty and money. The other names are just plain cliché and i hate both of them for some certain reasons. “Oh! My princess” is too not unique and i hate the “oh!” in the beginning. “Take care of the Young Lady” is okay but in English it’s too long. In korean it’s fine. But i still would love to see them using Lady Castle… It’s way better!

Coming from an English-speaking country in Asia, actually “Lady Castle” is wrong grammar. There should be a conjunction…“Lady in the Castle” or if there is no conjunction it should be “Castle Lady”. As to using Korean title or not, since usually it is being exported to other countries, it is better if they retain or continue using English.
