Lee Naeun will be starring in a new drama!
On February 22, industry insiders reported that Lee Naeun will star in the new ENA drama “Crash,” which is scheduled to premiere in May.
In response to the report, ENA confirmed, “It is true that Lee Naeun will be starring in ‘Crash.’”
Lee Naeun’s agency Namoo Actors also stated, “Lee Naeun is scheduled to play an active role as the main character of an episode in ‘Crash.’” Lee Naeun will reportedly play the role of a victim that is the main character of one of the sub-plots in the drama.
“Crash” is a comedy crime investigation drama about rational individualist Cha Yeon Ho (Lee Min Ki) and Min So Hee (Kwak Sun Young), an ace of a traffic investigation sector who has keen judgment and a warm heart, as they track crimes that occur on the road.
Earlier on February 8, ENA confirmed the cast lineup of the drama through a Lunar New Year’s greetings video featuring Lee Min Ki, Kwak Sun Young, Heo Sung Tae, Lee Ho Chul, and Moon Hee. The drama will be helmed by director Park Jun Woo, who led Season 1 of the SBS drama “Taxi Driver.”
Previously, Lee Naeun was also scheduled to appear in Season 1 of “Taxi Driver,” which aired in 2021, but the actress stepped down from the show due to controversy.
Afterwards, Lee Naeun signed an exclusive contract with Namoo Actors in 2022 and kicked off her career as an actress. Following her appearance in the currently on-air drama “Flex x Cop,” Lee Naeun is also confirmed to star in the new drama “i Shopping” (literal title) starring Yum Jung Ah, Won Jin Ah, Dex, and Ahn Ji Ho.
