Actor Gong Yoo and actress Jung Yu-mi have been cast together in a new film, announced their agency N.O.A. Entertainment on Friday.
According to a press release by N.O.A., film “Dogani," whose title can be translated into 'a scene,' is based on the 2009 best-seller of the same name written by Korean writer Gong Ji-young who looked into a sexual violence case committed in one of the schools for hearing-impaired people in Gwangju.
The film, to be directed by Hwang Dong-hyuk, will crank in next month and is expected to premiere around the latter half of this year.
Gong, 31, whose real name is Gong Ji-cheol, debuted with a role in KBS’ TV series “School 4” in 2001 and since then has appeared in more than a handful of dramas including “One Fine Day” (MBC, 2006) and “Hello My Teacher” (SBS, 2005) and films “My Tutor Friend (2003),” “S Diary (2004)” Spy Girl (2004) and “She’s On Duty” (2005).
Jung, 27, made her debut in 2004 starring in film “How To Operate a Polaroid Camera” and later appeared in quite a few indie films including “The Room Nearby” (2008), “Like You Know It All” (2009), “Cafe Noir” (2009), “My Dear Desperado” (2010) and particularly “Oki’s Movie (2010)” which had her invited to the 67th Venice International Film Festival last year.
