Kwon Nara confirmed for Itaewon Class with Park Seo-joon

by tccolb

Former Hello Venus member, Kwon Nara (Doctor Prisoner) has confirmed she will be joining Park Seo-joon (What’s Wrong With Secretary Kim) in new JTBC drama Itaewon Class. Actors Kim Da-mi (Witch) and Yoo Jae-myung (My Fellow Citizens) will also be part of the cast.

The drama is based on a popular webtoon by the same name, and is about a spirited and hard-nosed group of young adults who band together in revolt against the unjust world. On a small street in the colorful neighborhood of Itaewon, where there seems to be a compact version of the world, the characters each chase their own versions of what freedom means and set the foundations for a legendary new world.

Park Seo-joon plays the central hero of the story, Park Se-ro. And Kwon Nara takes the role of Park’s first love, Oh Soo-ah. In the present, their relationship is more tense as she works for a rival business. However, she has enjoyed a successful career, and she is described as being frank, capable, and confident.

I’m intrigued by the story and I’m excited to see how the drama adapts the source material — especially since there are some very capable hands in the production team. Park Seo-joon is always a plus as well!

JTBC’s upcoming Friday-Saturday drama Itaewon Class will be directed by PD Kim Sung-yoon (Moonlight Drawn by Clouds, Discovery of Romance). And the script will be written by the original writer and illustrator of the webtoon, Jo Kwang-jin.
