When I saw the poster of Juno last month I thought, are they remaking another Korean flick?
So far Juno looks like the white Jenny and Juno.
I haven't heard or seen anyone credit the original.

Korean Remake?

Researching..
Huh...Diablo Cody credits
her own high school experience
(loosely). It is a rather
ubiquitous theme.
ha..
Daiblo says coincidence:

But who knows?
Need to compare plot details, with
the hundreds of other movies/TVshows
with the theme since the 60s.
Seems if you were going to have
the same name you'd talk about
the connection.
Oohh...interesting investigative research and query, Mike Keo.
looks like a duck, quacks like a duck, swims like a duck...most probably it is a duck
there is no such thing as coincidence in show business.
The movie is a remake…if she denies that then its plain outright plagiarism
the nerve of the writer…you can’t fool people by switching names from girl to boy and adding a subplot and call it brand new….
kinda like
Mr. and Mrs. Bo Jo Jones (1971)
I Want to Keep my Baby (1976)
For Keeps (1988)
"Saved" (2004) actually had the
keep-baby-different-dad theme,
with a twist.
Using the word "Juno" was clever
factionalizing Psych, though, IMO.
Tapping any division is very potent
these days.
Peace Out
