All this talk around the casting of K-drama Tree Dies on Their Feet made me forget that male lead Kang Ha Neul will be back on the small screen before then first with jTBC drama Insider. The drama released the first poster today and it shows the male lead juxtaposed as a judicial intern and a prisoner but both looking totally intense and unwilling to bend. The drama is from the PD of Missing: The Other Side and Touch with the script by the writer of Priest so I’m expecting dark, gritty, and low to no romance. The female lead is Lee Yoo Young and not much is known about the drama other than the male lead finds himself locked up after undertaking an insider investigation within the legal system so of course the corruption runs deep. I love this poster despite how straight forward it is because Kang Ha Neul absolutely owns it.
