Girls Generation member YoonA is currently reviewing her upcoming office drama "Hush."
On Wednesday, March 11, a report from the Sports Chosun stated that a reliable source revealed to them that Yoona is presently assessing the film project that was offered by JTBC. The report added that if confirmed, she will star in the drama along with Hwang Jung Min, one of the highest grossing actors in South Korea.
Her management, SM Entertainment, confirmed the statement from the source and said, "We confirm that our artist YoonA has received an offer for an office drama titled "Hush" and she is considering it, she is reviewing it."
The office drama "Hush" is based on Jung in Young's novel "Silence Warning." This drama revolves around the office employees and reporters, all of whom deal with their everyday struggles, ethical dilemmas, and problems.
After YoonA's successful film "E.X.I.T" in 2019, she will now return to the K-drama scene three years after starring in the MBC historical drama "The King Loves" in 2017.
If YoonA agrees to do the project, she will portray the role of an intern reporter named Lee Ji Soo, who is fresh graduate and new to the media industry. After being hired in a newspaper publishing company, Lee Ji Soo blooms fiercely as she stands between reality and the ideal.
Reports earlier this year have confirmed that the actor Hwang Jung Min will be starring his first lead role after an 8-year hiatus from the industry. He will play the role of the veteran reporter Han Joon Hyuk, who chose to be dedicated to his job in the hopes of building more than just a world. He has been in all the news department and still thinks that there is a gap between justice and reality.
YoonA will play her role along with Hwang Jung Min, and the two will establish a junior and senior relationship, just like in real life a trainee and a mentor who works on the same team at work.
YoonA and Hwang Jung Min are expected to portray their roles and deliver the purpose of the series to the viewers through an engaging work-life story.
This office drama is written by the scriptwriter Kim Jung Min. "Hush" is set to begin shooting in the second half of the year.
