EXID's Hani, Kwak Si Yang, & Kim Min Kyu cast as leads of new JTBC drama 'Idol'

AKP STAFF

EXID's Hani, Kwak Si Yang, and Kim Min Kyu will be heading the cast of an upcoming JTBC drama coming up in the second half of 2021, 'Idol'.

The story centers around a female girl group member named Kim Jae Na, going on 6-years as a "no-name" idol group called Cotton Candy. EXID member-turned-actress Hani will be taking on the role of Kim Jae Na, marking her first ever leading role in a mid-length, cable broadcasting station drama production. 

Joining Hani, actor Kwak Si Yang takes on the role of a calculative entertainment agency president, Cha Jae Hyuk, heading Star Piece Entertainment. Next, former 'Produce X 101' contestant Kim Min Kyu will be greeting viewers on the small-screen for the first time as the center member Seo Ji Han of the idol group MARS, the money-maker of Cha Jae Hyuk's agency. 

In addition to these three lead stars, JTBC's 'Idol' will be working with a team of expert producers, artists, and creators for the music and performances of the series, raising anticipation. 

Stay tuned for JTBC's very own K-Pop idol-centered dramas series, coming soon.

This sounds similar to KBS' Imitation which is currently not doing well in Korea, so it's interesting how JTBC is going forward with this one. I wish the cast all the best though!
