The actors even went so far as to keep eye contact as they rehearsed their lines, and were in perfect breathtaking harmony with one another. It was as if one was watching the actual filming of the drama.

I'm sure everyone present noticed their extreme attention to detail.'

The two-part pilot drama 'Hope for Love' is a work that explores all different types of dating styles between men and women, and has a lot of unique characters to play those roles. It is sure to captivate both male and female audiences alike.

The drama is set to air this coming September.
