Kim Se Jeong in talks to star in new webtoon-based action romance drama

Kim Se Jeong may star in a new drama!

On April 2, a media outlet reported that Kim Se Jeong has been cast as the lead in the upcoming drama “High School Queen” (literal translation). The series is currently in production planning, and the exact broadcast schedule is still being discussed.

In response to the report, Kim Se Jeong’s agency BH Entertainment said, “The new drama ‘High School Queen’ is one of the projects offered to Kim Se Jeong.”

Based on a webtoon of the same name, “High School Queen” tells the story of Kim Chung Ha, a queen from the Joseon era and her greatest swordswoman, who is reincarnated into the body of modern high school student Park Da Jin. The webtoon is widely loved for delivering a thrilling sense of justice as it uses Joseon martial arts to take on school bullies.

previously, Shin Ye Eun was also in discussions for the lead role, but she reportedly turned down the offer.

Kim Se Jeong first debuted with the group IOI and strengthened her music career as a member of gugudan. She also built her acting career and appeared in dramas such as “School 2017,” “The Uncanny Counter,” “Business Proposal,” “Today’s Webtoon,” “Brew love“,” and “Moon River.” She is also preparing for IOI’s 10th anniversary return and tour starting in May.
