KARA’s Kang Jiyoung And Highlight’s Lee Gikwang Cast In Upcoming Action Drama

 

KARA’s Kang Jiyoung and Highlight’s Lee Gikwang have been confirmed to star in an upcoming drama!

Kang Jiyoung and Lee Gikwang are set to lead “I Kill You” (working title), an action drama that follows the story of Sun Woo, a former Taekwondo hopeful who appears in the media on behalf of chaebol Ji Yeon, who eerily resembles Sun Woo and gets accused of being the main culprit of a drunk hit-and-run accident.

“I Kill You” will be the first-ever drama by director Yoo Ha, who helmed the films “Once Upon a Time in High School,” “A Dirty Carnival,” “A Frozen Flower,” “Gangnam Blues,” “Pipeline,” and more.

Kang Ji Young will take on a double role as Sun Woo, a former Taekwondo prospect who’s born into a poor family, and Ji Yeon, a third generation chaebol. Lee Gikwang stars as Ji Yeon’s half-brother Ho Joong, who feels inferior to her but aims to become their family’s heir.

Along with their casting announcement, “I Kill You” unveiled photos of director Yoo Ha, a master of the action genre, and rising action stars Kang Jiyoung and Lee Gikwang on set and at their first script reading.

Following the first “I Kill You” filming last month, Kang Jiyoung shared, “Action is not easy, but the filming set atmosphere is fun and I’m working diligently and enjoyably, so I ask for lots of interest and anticipation.” Lee Gikwang added, “For the first time, I have a lot of scenes using my body and I appear as a villain, and I’m filming while diligently studying the script and focusing on martial arts practice, so I ask for lots of interest and anticipation.”
