DRAMA CASTING & NEWS
SNSD’s Yuri, Yoon Tae-young for OCN’s Neighborhood Hero

Yuri, Yoon Tae-young
Now that cable network OCN’s new spy action drama Neighborhood Hero has its hero in
Park Shi-hoo (Alice in Cheongdam-dong), we’ve got a few more additions to the cast:
Girl’s Generation’s Kwon Yuri (No Breathing, Fashion King) is considering an offer to play
the heroine, and Yoon Tae-young (Records of a Night Watchman), Jung Man-shik (Good Doctor), and Jo Sung-ha (Hwajeong) have signed on as supporting players.
The new drama from Chuno PD Kwak Jung-hwan centers around a former black-ops agent
(Park Shi-hoo) who retires in a small town and runs a neighborhood bar. No one knows about
his past, and he helps train a local who wants to become a cop, and finds a family among
his neighbors. He’ll eventually save the town, becoming a real neighborhood hero.
Yuri has been offered the part of an aspiring writer, who is among the bar regulars. She stays
the longest among the patrons because she uses the bar like it’s her writing office, though
she spends more time spying on the locals than she does on her writing. And one day
She becomes very curious about one man.
Yoon Tae-young is a really strong actor — he played the senior night watchman
in the fantasy sageuk Records of a Night Watchman, and managed to be a badass fighter with gravitas in an otherwise silly show. In this drama, he’ll play a Korean-American who grew up
in a poor neighborhood and learned taekwondo in order to defend himself in his youth,
and eventually grows up to become a mobster.
Jung Man-shik does everything from funny to scary, but this time he’ll play an intelligence agent
and team leader who worked with the hero. And Jo Sung-ha has been cast to play a cool-headed detective. I guess you can’t have your vigilante heroes without your cops to give good chase.
Neighborhood Hero starts shooting in September and plans to air early next year.
