Update: Oh Yeon Seo And Jung Woo Confirmed For New Romance Drama
Updated November 11 KST:
Oh Yeon Seo and Jung Woo have confirmed their casting in the KakaoTV original drama “Crazy Person in the Area” (literal translation).
Jung Woo will be playing No Hwi Oh, a detective in the violent crimes division of the Gangnam Police Station. He thinks that he is doing well until his life suddenly takes a turn and he becomes a “crazy” person who can’t hold in his anger about anything.
The actor said, “I was drawn to the title, but the content was really interesting as well. It’s my first drama in a while, and I’m glad to be participating in a project with such a fun premise. I think I’ll be able to have fun filming with the director and writer and my co-star, Oh Yeon Seo, who will help me create a unique, appealing character. I am interested in seeing how the new platform will help us approach viewers in a more accessible way.”
Oh Yeon Seo plays Lee Min Kyung, a woman who is caught up in her own delusions and compulsions. She had lived an ordinary life as a pretty woman with a respectable job until “that incident” that caused everything in her life to break down. As a result, she was unable to trust anyone and is caught in a prison of her own making. Her delusions also have the unfortunate side effect of making everyone else around her angry.
The actress said, “I’m excited to be doing a drama for the first time in a while. The premise and the characters were so unique. While I was reading the script, I couldn’t stop laughing. I’m interested in seeing how the story is expressed onscreen. I’ll work hard at filming so that viewers can have fun and enjoy the drama.”
“Crazy Person in the Area” will air on KakaoTV in the first half of 2021. Each episode will run for 25 minutes for a total of 12 episodes.
