Netizens Upset At Girls’ Day’s Hyeri Being Cast For A Noir Opposite Woo Do Hwan
On January 2, 2023, it was reported that Girls’ Day‘s Hyeri has been cast for the female lead in a new noir film, Tropical Night (working title). The flick will be directed by the mastermind behind Princess Deokhye and 12.12 The Day.
Hyeri will play the role of Ari, a former K-Pop girl group leader, who now works as a pole dancer at a street club in Bangkok. Woo Do Hwan will star opposite her. He plays a part-time worker who helps Ari execute her performances at club events. He falls for her at first sight.
Despite the star-studded cast, netizens have expressed their disapproval at Hyeri’s casting. Rather than griping about the star, they have qualms about the character and set-up of the film.
- The role…
- The character…
- Her role…
- LOL
- The character synopsis for a noir film is screwed up already.
- I hope Hyeri moves to a company that can help her pick better scripts…
- If they go with that, the character set-up is too bad though.
- The character is so bad. Is he a famous director?
- Wow, but how can it be so bad that it gives off flop vibes at first glance?
The film will begin filming in Thailand at the end of January. Jang Dong Gun is also a part of the cast.
