Aug 01, 2022

tvN has given a look at the cast of “Blind” (literal title) at their first script reading!

“Blind” is a mystery thriller that depicts the story of people who have unfairly become victims because they are ordinary and perpetrators who have closed their eyes to the uncomfortable truths. The story centers around detectives, judges, law school students, and jurors.

2PM’s Taecyeon introduces himself as detective Ryu Sung Joon. He shares, “Sung Joon is an ardent detective. As a detective chasing down a serial killer, he’s a character who busily moves around to catch criminals and prevent the numerous murders and mysteries that arise in the drama.”

Ha Seok Jin portrays Ryu Sung Joon’s older brother Ryu Sung Hoon, a genius judge. The actor describes the character saying “As he gets tangled in the serial killer case together [with his brother], they jointly investigate to try and catch the criminal. At times, [Ryu Sung Hoon] gets suspicious of his younger brother and is at the core of the drama’s entertaining cases.”

Apink’s Jung Eun Ji greets viewers and introduces her character Jo Eun Ki, a social worker. She shares, “For starters, Eun Ki plays the important role of a citizen participation trial juror who catches key points within that and diligently tries to solve the case.” She intriguingly adds, “With each episode, you will have fun.”

Despite this being their first meeting, the cast and crew comfortably completed their script reading with ease and quickly adjusted to their new setting. In addition to the relationships between Taecyeon, Ha Seok Jin, and Jung Eun Ji, there will be lots of entertainment in discovering the connections between those on the jury of this citizen participation trial.

Taecyeon chose mystery as the key point of “Blind” and explained, “I think there’s the charm of continuing to try and find out who the real culprit is. I hope viewers continue to engage in a mental battle and try to guess who the culprit is.”

Ha Seok Jin continued, “With each episode, I think this is a project with the charm of investigating together who this situation was ultimately caused by.” Jung Eun Ji added, “I believe that many people will be able to watch enjoyably and curiously. I also think this is a good project that makes you think twice about the message within it.”

“Blind” also stars Jung In Ki, Park Ji Bin, Jeon Jin Woo, Kim Bup Rae, Kim Ha Kyun, Jo Seung Yeon, Jo Kyung Sook, and Choi Hong Il, and will premiere on September 16 at 10:40 p.m. KST. Check out a teaser here and watch the script reading video below!
