Kim Jung-hyun becomes a chaebol

Actor Kim Jeong-hyun appears on KBS 2TV's 'Iron Family'.

On the 16th, his agency Story J Company said, "Actor Kim Jung-hyun has been cast in KBS 2TV's new special weekend drama 'Iron Family'. We ask for your interest in Kim Jung-hyun, who will play the role of 'Seo Kang-joo', the managing director of Jiseung Group."

‘Iron Family’ is a romantic, money-filled black comedy story about Darim’s family, an ‘integrity laundromat’ who irons money instead of clothes.

Kim Jung-hyun will play the role of 'Seo Kang-ju', the son of the richest family in Cheongryeom-dong, who entrusts the most expensive suits and shirts to 'Integrity Laundry', and will show off his various charms. Unlike the typical second-generation chaebol, Kim Jung-hyun is a character who values deep and warm human relationships more than money. He plans to add freshness and depth to the drama by depicting the human concerns and growth of 'Seo Kang-joo' in detail.

Previously, Kim Jung-hyun appeared in several works regardless of genre, including the movie 'Secret', the drama MBC's 'Season of the Kokdu', tvN's 'Queen of Iron Man', and tvN's 'Crash Landing on You', building up a solid filmography. He not only showed a strong presence by establishing his own unique acting style in a wide range of genres, from romance to comedy, and thriller, but also left a deep impression on the public with his excellent character digestion. Accordingly, attention is being paid to how Kim Jung-hyun will portray the character 'Seo Kang-joo' in this work.

KBS 2TV's 'Iron Family' starring Kim Jung-hyun is scheduled to premiere in September 2024.
