Director Woo Min Ho of “The Drug King” will take the megaphone on the upcoming drama series. In addition, Hive Media Corp will be in charge of the production.
Interestingly, as per the report, the drama boasts a 48 billion Korean won budget or over 35 million US dollars. Additionally, plans include releasing it on an online streaming platform and ongoing casting for leading and supporting roles. After finalizing the casting, production for the new drama series may start later this summer.
Jung Woo Sung, alongside a potential return by Hyun Bin, will bring star power to the intriguing narrative.
Potential Reunion of Hyun Bin, Jung Woo Sung, and Director Woo Min Ho
“Made In Korea” will be Jung Woo Sung’s new drama project following “Tell Me That You Love Me.” Apart from the romantic drama, he also featured in Korean movies like “A Man of Reason” and “12:12 Day.” Moreover, the report revealed that Jung Woo Sung will play the character of Jang Geon Young. He is a highly respected prosecutor known for his sharp instincts and unwavering determination.
Further, if Hyun Bin accepts the role, the upcoming drama could mark his return to the small screen. His last drama series was the hit Kdrama “Crash Landing on You” in 2019, with his co-star-turned-wife, Son Ye Jin. In addition, this project will also be the actor’s first drama series since marrying Ye Jin and becoming a parent.
