Jun Ji Hyun and Kang Dong Won will officially star together in a new K-drama

After almost a year since it was first reported, Jun Ji Hyun and Kang Dong Won are officially confirmed to star in a new K-drama.

Aside from their confirmed partnership in a K-drama, it was also hinted that the series production team had already begun filming. Staff of the K-drama also shared that they have started filming on March 25.

Jun Ji Hyun and Kang Dong Won will be leading the upcoming K-drama titled “Polaris.”

“Polaris” will tell the story of two spies who lost their identities. The series will showcase their journey of self-discovery.

Aside from Jun Ji Hyun and Kang Dong Won, there is no confirmation yet on the other casts of the K-drama.

“Polaris” will be the next work of the same director and writer of the 2022 series “Little Women.” The K-drama will be directed by Kim Hee Won (“Vincenzo” and “The Crowned Clown”) and the script will be penned by writer Jung Seo Kyung (“Mother” and “The Handmaiden”).

Since the reports of Jun Ji Hyun and Kang Dong Won teaming up, many are already anticipating their project. Even the mother-in-law of Jun Ji Hyun, designer Lee Jung Woo, can’t help but express how excited she is to see the actress work with Kang Dong Won in a new series.

The combination of top celebrities Jun Ji Hyun and Kang Dong Won is one of the most anticipated pairings in the K-drama world.

Another reason why this K-drama is a highly anticipated one is that this will be the grand comeback of Kang Dong Won to the small screen. Kang Dong Won was last seen in a K-drama in 2004. After twenty years, K-drama fans will finally see him for a longer time with several episodes.

This will also be Jun Ji Hyun’s comeback to K-dramas after 2 years. She last led the K-drama “Jirisan” with Joo Ji Hoon.
