Actor Joo Ji Hoon is reportedly considering a main role offer in the latest drama.
On Friday (17/04), Joo Ji Hoon is rumored to be starring in the male lead character in the drama 'Mount Jiri' which also stars actress Jun Ji Hyun.
Responding to the report, the KeyEast Entertainment agency commented, "Joo Ji Hoon had a schedule before, so it was impossible for him to film this year. For that reason, the production team is currently checking Joo Ji Hoon's schedule. ”
If he accepts the offer, actor Joo Ji Hoon will play the character of the national park guard named Kang Hyun Jo, who protects a secret on Mount Jiri. The character played by Jun Ji Hyun, Seo Yi Kang will be the only person he entrusts with the secret.
Previously the male main character named Kang Hyun Jo was reportedly being considered by actor Park Seo Joon. However, since Joo Ji Hoon is currently considering the role, it's likely that Park Seo Joon has decided not to take the lead role in the drama 'Mount Jiri'.
‘Mount Jiri’ is the latest drama from writer Kim Eun Hee, known through the drama ‘Signal’ until the latest is ‘Kingdom’. The drama will be directed by Lee Eung Bok, who directed the drama 'Dream High', 'School 2013', 'Descendants of the Sun', 'Goblin' and 'Mr. Sunshine ’.
