What is Park Ji Hoon’s ‘We Are The Zombie’ all about?
Singer and actor Park Ji Hoon has been offered the leading role in the webtoon-based K-drama ‘We Are The Zombie’. He has not made any comments about accepting the offer. However, if he accepts the job, he will play Kim In Jong, a character who spent one year in Seoul Tower.
The story is based on Naver’s webtoon written by Lee Myung Jae. It features a shopping mall, Seoul Tower, which has been described as the only spot unaffected by the zombie infestation. Survivors are seen dying inside the mall one by one, while Kim In Jong is the centre of attention.
Ji Hoon has also been seen in famous series like ‘Flower Crew: Joseon Marriage,’ in which he played Go Young Soo, who is requested by the king to transform his commoner lover into a noble woman.
Apart from this role, he was seen in ‘Love Song for Illusion,’ in which Ji Hoon plays the dual role of Crown Prince Sajo Hyun and a secret identity as Ak-Hee. The love story develops as an assassin set on killing him becomes his concubine.
