In the busy entertainment industry, various works are being introduced today, and new artists are stepping in front of the public. Let's take a look at today's main schedule.
The press screening and actor stage greeting for the suspense thriller movie 'Confession', starring Yang Ik-jun, will take place on the afternoon of the 12th. Recently accused of assault by a junior, Yang Ik-jun will make his first official appearance since the filing of the complaint.
Yang Ik-jun is accused of hitting a film staff member with a bundle of paper and verbally abusing him at a pub he operates in Seongbuk-gu on December 13 of last year. The complaint was filed at the Seongbuk Police Station in Seoul on December 30 of last year, and as a result of the investigation, the police sent Yang Ik-jun to the Seoul Northern District Prosecutor's Office on the 11th without detention on assault charges.
Despite being sent to the prosecution, Yang Ik-jun plans to fulfill his scheduled movie promotional activities. On that day, instead of a press conference, he is expected to conduct a brief stage greeting before the screening and will reportedly only deliver a few comments related to the film. There will be no separate photo or video coverage. He is also expected to attend the audience talk (GV) scheduled for the 22nd.
On the morning of the 12th, a production presentation for the Netflix series 'Melomovie' will take place. Actors Choi Woo-shik, Park Bo-young, Lee Joon-young, Jeon So-ni, and director Oh Chung-hwan will attend.
'Melomovie' is a romance that depicts ambiguous youth who want to fall in love and achieve their dreams, discovering each other and becoming sources of inspiration while overcoming their respective traumas. The story will unfold around young people with their own deficiencies, moving towards their dreams and love, showcasing the reunion romance of 'thirty-somethings' dreaming of a melodramatic life.
Hit maker director Oh Chung-hwan, known for 'Hotel Del Luna' and 'Start-Up', collaborates with writer Lee Na-eun, who showcased the essence of youth romance through 'Our Beloved Summer', to create a romance with emotional details. Above all, expectations are high for the exciting combination of Choi Woo-shik, Park Bo-young, Lee Joon-young, and Jeon So-ni, who will realistically portray the faces of youth.
On the afternoon of the 12th, an online production presentation for tvN's new Monday-Tuesday drama 'That Guy is a Black Dragon' will be broadcast live. Attendees will include Moon Ga-young, Choi Hyun-wook, Lim Se-mi, Kwak Si-yang, and director Lee Soo-hyun.
'That Guy is a Black Dragon' is a romance about team leader Baek Soo-jung (played by Moon Ga-young), who suffers from a dark history, and the 'third-generation chaebol' Ban Joo-yeon (played by Choi Hyun-wook), who harbors a black dragon in his heart. Based on the popular Naver webtoon of the same name by writer Hye-jin, the drama is directed by Lee Soo-hyun, who helmed 'The Good Detective', and features a solid lead lineup of Moon Ga-young, Choi Hyun-wook, Lim Se-mi, and Kwak Si-yang, raising expectations.
In the drama, Moon Ga-young plays Baek Soo-jung, a team leader at Yongseong Department Store, who has become accustomed to fighting with her boss rather than just enduring hardships in order to survive in a harsh world, proving her prowess as a 'romantic comedy goddess' once again. Choi Hyun-wook takes on the role of Ban Joo-yeon, a third-generation chaebol who has secretly hidden his 'black dragon' alter ego to be recognized as a perfectionist heir, aiming to redefine his character.
Lim Se-mi plays the role of 'Seo Ha-jin', the pub owner, showcasing her bright and bold girl-crush charm, and is expected to present an interesting romance with Kwak Si-yang, who will display his warm charm through the character of 'Kim Shin-won', head of the design department at Yongseong Department Store.
