According to OSEN on the afternoon of December 3, both Kang Dong-won and Lim Ji-yeon reviewed positively and eventually accepted offers to appear in “Wild Thing”.
“Wild Thing” follows the story of Triangle, a once-popular three-member mixed group who fades into obscurity after a scandal, only to reunite on a chaotic journey. The film will be directed by Son Jae-gon, known for works such as “My Scary Girl” (2006), “Villain and Widow” (2010) and “Secret Zoo” (2020). The production will be handled by About Film, the company behind “Extreme Job” (2019), which ranked second in the all-time Korean movie box office with 16 million admissions.
Kang Dong-won and Lim Ji-yeon will play the members of the mixed group Triangle. This marks their first collaboration, with the two actors exploring their on-screen chemistry in a comedy, rather than a melodrama or romance. Fans are eagerly awaiting the synergy they will bring to the project.
Kang Dong-won has garnered praise from global audiences this year for his performances in Netflix’s “The Plot” and “Uspiring.” Following his upcoming Disney+ original series “Tempest,” he will take on a new challenge in comedy with “Wild Thing.”
Lim Ji-yeon is currently starring in JTBC’s Saturday-Sunday drama “The Tale of Lady Ok” and has already cast her next drama “Mean Love” alongside Lee Jung-jae. With the addition of “Wild Thing” to his roster, he continues his steady streak of activity.
Meanwhile, “Wild Thing” is expected to begin filming next year.
