Update: Park Hae Jin Confirmed To Lead In New MBC Drama + Han Ji Eun In Talks
Updated February 3 KST:
Park Hae Jin is confirmed to lead in MBC’s new drama “Old School Intern” (literal title)!
The actor will play the role of Ga Yeol Chan, an officeworker who moves to a ramyun company after suffering under an old and bossy superior. He grits his teeth and works his way up the ladder at lightning speed to eventually become the leader of the marketing and sales team. One day, the old and bossy superior Lee Man Shik (Kim Eung Soo) from his former workplace shows up at his company as a senior intern. Ga Yeol Chan’s revenge story as well as the bromance between the two men will be portrayed realistically yet comically. It will be interesting to see how Park Hae Jin plays Ga Yeol Chan, who is a perfectionist at work but an unexpectedly sloppy character in his everyday life.
Notably, it is the first time in 12 years since “East of Eden” that Park Hae Jin is appearing in an MBC drama.
The drama will be directed by Nam Sung Woo of “Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo” and “100 Days My Prince” and written by Shin So Ra, who won the grand prize for MBC’s drama script contest in 2018.
“Old School Intern” is slated to air in May as the follow-up to “The Way He Remembers” starring Kim Dong Wook and Moon Ga Young.
