Kim Soo Hyun and Jo Bo Ah will be starring in the upcoming drama “Knock Off”!
On August 26, Disney+ announced the broadcast plans and casting of Kim Soo Hyun and Jo Bo Ah as the lead roles for their upcoming drama “Knock Off.”
“Knock Off” is a story about a man whose life is completely turned upside down by the 1997 Asian financial crisis (also known in Korea as the IMF crisis), transforming from an ordinary office worker to the king of the global counterfeit market. The drama will be helmed by director Park Hyun Suk who is known for hit dramas such as “Forest of Secrets 2” (“Stranger 2”), “Uncontrollably Fond,” and “Song of the Bandits.”
Kim Soo Hyun will take on the role of Kim Sung Joon, the king of the counterfeit world. After losing his job due to the IMF crisis, Kim Sung Joon steps into the world of counterfeits and becomes the vice president of the Saemmool Market, a major counterfeit market in Korea. With his extraordinary intellect, quick thinking, and ambition, he rises to become the king of the global counterfeit market.
Jo Bo Ah will portray Kim Sung Joon’s ex-girlfriend Song Hye Jung. As a special judicial police officer in charge of cracking down on counterfeit goods, Song Hye Jung will form a tense cat-and-mouse relationship with Kim Sung Joon as they clash over counterfeit enforcement.
“Knock Off” is slated to premiere sometime in 2025. Stay tuned for more updates!
