KakaoTV’s upcoming original drama “Shadow Beauty” (literal translation) has released photos and video from its script reading!

Based on a popular webtoon, “Shadow Beauty” is about a female high school student named Goo Ae Jin, who is bullied and a loner at school but is a social media star and influencer named “Genie” online. Rookie actress Shim Dal Gi stars as Goo Ae Jin, Golden Child’s Bomin stars as class president Kim Ho In, and PENTAGON’s Hongseok stars as idol trainee Lee Jin Sung.

At the script reading were director Bang Su In and cast members Shim Dal Gi, Choi Bo Min, Hongseok, fromis_9’s Lee Nagyung, Heo Jung Hee, and Baek Ji Hye. The cast members impressed with their ability to immerse themselves in their roles from the start of the script reading, despite it being the cast’s first time working together.

Shim Dal Gi balanced her character’s dual lives as bullied student and social media star, while Bomin captured his character’s inner conflict as he appears to be a plain model student on the outside but holds a secret within. Lee Nagyung plays Genie, the social media avatar of Goo Ae Jin with flawlessly beautiful looks. The drama also opened a social media account for “Genie,” so that viewers can experience the drama character in “real life.”
