Jung Woo Sung, Jung Sung Il, And Wi Ha Joon Confirmed To Star In New Action Historical Film

A hard-boiled action historical film is officially on the way!

The production team of the upcoming film “Sal Saeng Bu” (literal title) officially confirmed the movie’s production and announced the casting of Jung Woo Sung, Jung Sung Il, and Wi Ha Joon. Although Bae Sung Woo was previously reported to be part of the lineup, his name was absent from the official press release.

“Sal Saeng Bu” refers to a “kill list” document written by Han Myeong Hoe during the Gyeyu Purge, the coup led by Grand Prince Suyang. In order to eliminate political rivals, Han Myeong Hoe categorized officials based on their past actions and the possibility of recruiting them, determining who would live and who would die.

Based on the webtoon of the same name, “Sal Saeng Bu” is a hard-boiled action historical film that follows a girl named Lee Hwa, who loses everything during the Gyeyu Purge and sets out on a path of revenge to kill Han Myeong Hoe, the strategist who created the “kill list.”

Jung Woo Sung will star as the ruthless strategist Han Myeong Hoe, who orchestrates the bloody purge and personally drafts the kill list. Jung Sung Il will play Ban Seok, a member of the secret organization Hwajeopmong, which was formed to assassinate Han Myeong Hoe and the officials involved in the rebellion. Meanwhile, Wi Ha Joon will make a special appearance as Prince Suyang, a fiercely ambitious royal convinced that he is destined to claim the throne.

Meanwhile, casting is currently underway for Lee Hwa—the young woman who chooses the path of a night demon in pursuit of revenge against Han Myeong Hoe—as well as the five female members of the assassin group Hwajeopmong.

The film will be directed by Kim Hong Sun, known for “Project Wolf Hunting” and Season 3 of “Gangs of London.”

“The Kill List” is currently in pre-production with the goal of beginning filming within the year after finalizing the remaining cast lineup in the first half of 2026.

Stay tuned for more updates on the film!

Watch: Yu Jae Seok, Lee Kwang Soo, Byeon Woo Seok, And Ji Ye Eun Barely Keep Up With Endless Chaos In “Jae Seok’s B&B Rules!”

“Jae Seok’s B&B Rules!” has unveiled a fun new introduction video spotlighting its four chaotic staff members!

“Jae Seok’s B&B Rules!” follows Yu Jae Seok as he takes on the challenge of running a bed-and-breakfast for the very first time. Joined by Lee Kwang Soo, Byeon Woo Seok, and Ji Ye Eun as staff members, they welcome guests and create memorable moments filled with laughter, chaos, and heartfelt warmth.

In the newly released video, Yu Jae Seok is introduced as a “Netflix veteran” but a “complete rookie when it comes to camping.” As the first-time boss of the campsite, he is constantly running around, earning the title of the camp’s ultimate busybody. Clips of him groaning, “I can’t do this anymore,” and “This is so chaotic,” hilariously foreshadow the hectic reality awaiting the team.

Lee Kwang Soo is introduced as the B&B’s head chef, but the teaser quickly casts doubt on his culinary expertise when he is caught secretly sprinkling mysterious ingredients—presumably MSG—into his cooking. True to form, he also keeps everyone entertained with his signature witty banter and even breaks out his iconic “mosquito dance.”

Meanwhile, Byeon Woo Seok is described as the team’s source of “healing energy,” though the teaser also labels him “gentle but hopelessly clumsy.” One hilarious scene shows him completely failing at chopping firewood, while the show also dubs him the team’s “official crybaby,” raising curiosity about what emotional moments might bring him to tears.

As the youngest member of the team, Ji Ye Eun effortlessly charms guests with her lovable and easygoing personality. Introduced as the camp’s mood-maker, she also proves herself to be impressively quick and capable, smoothly handling tasks around the campsite thanks to her previous experience in a similar role on “Kian’s Bizarre B&B.”

The teaser wraps up with all four members overwhelmed by their endless workload and lack of time. “We don’t even have time to make lunch,” Lee Kwang Soo complains, while Byeon Woo Seok adds, “We still need to go grocery shopping.” Ji Ye Eun jokingly protests, “So we’re not even allowed one iced latte?” before Yu Jae Seok sends everyone into laughter by declaring, “Let’s just go without brushing our teeth.” The teaser ends with the exhausted team burying their heads in frustration and screaming, perfectly previewing the nonstop chaos awaiting viewers.

Check out the teaser below!

“Jae Seok’s B&B Rules!” is set to premiere on May 26.

Watch: Yu Jae Seok, Byeon Woo Seok, Lee Kwang Soo, And Ji Ye Eun Critique Each Other’s Dishes In “Jae Seok’s B&B Rules!”

“Jae Seok’s B&B Rules!” is gearing up to welcome guests!

Ahead of the premiere of “Jae Seok’s B&B Rules!” the four hosts gather together to taste test the B&B’s potential menu options.

First, Byeon Woo Seok offers his rolled omelette. The others jokingly start off by saying, “Don’t get offended,” as they prepare to give their honest food critiques. They conclude, “It’s just a plain rolled omelet,” taking a neutral stance.

Ji Ye Eun offers spicy stir-fried pork, which she proudly presents. Yu Jae Seok critiques honestly, “Don’t take this the wrong way. If a restaurant served me this, I wouldn’t go there again,” adding, “It’s good, but I wouldn’t want to come back for more.” Lee Kwang Soo jokingly only offers it a one and a half star review.

Although the cast playfully repeats, “Don’t be offended,” before tasting Lee Kwang Soo’s kimchi stew, the others only have positive compliments for his cooking.

Last but not least, the staff members taste Yu Jae Seok’s breakfast sandwich, which leaves the members in shock at how untasty it is. Lee Kwang Soo comments, “If I were to rank it, this would be in fourth place.” Laughing, Yu Jae Seok can’t help but agree after tasting his sandwich. As critiques continue to rain down, Yu Jae Seok hilariously cuts them off by suddenly reminding Byeon Woo Seok that it’s time for him to leave.

IU And Byeon Woo Seok Personally Apologize For Controversy Involving “Perfect Crown”

The leading actors of “Perfect Crown” have apologized for controversy involving the drama’s content.

Set in an alternate universe where modern-day Korea is a constitutional monarchy, “Perfect Crown” is a drama about the marriage between Seong Hui Ju (IU), a chaebol heiress who has everything but is only a commoner in status, and Grand Prince Ian (Byeon Woo Seok), a prince who has nothing despite being the son of the king.

Episode 11 of “Perfect Crown” that aired on May 15 faced criticism for depictions that made the drama’s setting—a constitutional monarchy of South Korea—appear as if it were a vassal state of China. The episode featured the coronation of Grand Prince Ian, the second son of the royal family, as the new King. During the ceremony, the subjects shouted “Cheonse” (a thousand years)—a term used by vassal states—instead of “Manse” (ten thousand years), which is the symbol of an independent nation. Furthermore, it was pointed out that Grand Prince Ian wore a guryumyeonryugwan (a crown worn by Chinese subjects) rather than the shipimyeonryugwan (a twelve-tasseled crown) worn by emperors of independent nations.

As the controversy grew, the production team issued an official apology on May 16, stating, “We take the criticism that we have undermined our nation’s sovereign status very seriously.”

On May 18, actors IU and Byeon Woo Seok took to their personal Instagram accounts to apologize for the controversy.

IU wrote the following post:

Hello.

This is IU, who played the role of Seong Hui Ju in “Perfect Crown.”

Over the past few days, I have carefully read each and every comment that many viewers left.

As a lead actor of the drama, I feel I failed to show a responsible attitude and ended up causing great disappointment, and I am deeply sorry. Even now, my heart feels very heavy.

Regarding the various issues of historical verification in the drama that viewers pointed out, I sincerely reflect and apologize—without excuse—for having gone into my acting without thinking more deeply about them.

Because this was a drama in which it was important to convey imagination grounded in our own history and the traditional beauty of Korea, I should have read the script more carefully and studied more as an actor, but I did not, and I am ashamed of myself for that. I did not have a proper sense of the issues in advance. I apologize.

Thank you to everyone who watched the drama until the end and did not hold back from speaking up.

I will always remember the valuable criticism and opinions you sent, and going forward, I will be IU who approaches projects with an even more cautious and thorough attitude. I apologize once again.
