After completing JTBC's The Good Detective, which ended on August 25, actor Jang Seung Jo was cast as the lead in the upcoming drama "Snowdrop." On August 26, a media outlet reported that he decided on the next work immediately and joined in the trend's movement.

"Snowdrop" (which is the working title) is a project in which the production crew from the popular JTBC drama in 2018 titled "Sky Castle" will be united once again.

Screenwriter Yoo Hyun Mi and Cho Hyun Tak announced their collaboration to create another well-made drama. In addition, Kim Hye Yoon, who worked with "Sky Castle" and BLACKPINK's Jisoo, confirmed their characters and spurred the acting challenge. Jung Hae is also considering appearing in the drama.

Meanwhile, Jang Seung Jo will also join and will take the lead role in JTBC's "Snowdrop," where he wanted to show his acting improvements. Again, expectations are rising for Jang Seung Jo, who already played a challenging role in his previous drama, "The Good Detective." He played the role of Oh Ji Hyuk, a hero who has a high level of ability, a perfect intelligence, and action.

The previous drama "Sky Castle" is about wealthy doctors and professors who live in a private luxury condo community. It was built by the first president of Joo Nam University, the most prestigious school in Korea.

Most residents are doctors and law school professors of the university. The drama shows how the wealthy family makes their children enter a top university. It is a satirical comic drama that closely looks behind the scenes at their upper-class parents' worldly desires in Korea.

In response, a source from the ACE Factory stated that the details of the upcoming drama's storyline and the character of Jang Seung Jo would be revealed by the production company soon. (Via Soompi)
