By Bianca Geli

The long-awaited Coffee Prince documentary aired its first episode on September 24, leaving fans nostalgic as the cast reminisced on their drama which aired in 2007.

The documentary opened with Yoon Eun-hye surprising his leading man Gong Yoo in the coffee shop where they filmed the drama.

Gong Yoo praised Eun-hye, who has changed her look from thirteen years ago. "You're still pretty...You're the same. It's really just Go Eun Chan, but more feminine," he said.

The two stars appeared as the lead characters with Yoon Eun-hye as Go Eun-chan and Gong Yoo as Choi Han-kyul.

In the documentary, Gong Yoo recalled filming for the drama and said, "There are so many clips of Coffee Prince on YouTube that I can't avoid the videos. I usually get embarrassed when I look at my acting back then but I don't feel like that when I watch Choi Han-kyul. I think I acted very well."

As they revealed more stories from the past, they also shared why they're both still single. Yoon Eun-hye asked Gong Yoo his thoughts on getting married. Gong Yoo replied, "It's not that I'm not getting married...It's more that I missed the timing to marry."

Yoon Eun Hye responded by sharing her reason for not marrying yet, "I want to work more. I want to do more."


The documentary's second episode is set to air on October 1st, 10PM KST featuring other members of the cast.

Coffee Prince aired on GMA in March 2008 and also spawned a local adaptation starring Kris Bernal and Aljur Abrenica.
