K-pop idol Park Hyung-sik of boy band ZE:A has been cast in a SBS weekend series, according to his agency Star Empire Entertainment.

A PR rep with Star Empire told 10Asia over the phone that Park was cast to play the rebellious younger brother to actress Yoo In-young's character in the drama tentatively titled "Stupid Mom" slated to air on March 17.

"In the series, Park's character rides around in a motorcycle and so he's been getting motorcycle lessons. He was quite scared at first but he's getting the hang of it," the official added.

"Stupid Mom," also starring actors Kim Hyun-joo, Kim Tae-woo and Kim Jeong-hoon, focuses on the subject of love, forgiveness amongst three generation of women.

Park made his debut as one of the main vocals in the nine-member boy band ZE:A (Children of Empire) in January 2010. He expanded his career into musicals with a role in "Temptation of Wolves" opposite Super Junior member Ryeowook.
