Handsome actor Kim Min Jae has recently confirmed his next acting project!
An industry representative reported on March 9 that the actor was offered to star as the main lead of the new KBS 2TV drama titled "Dal Li and Gamja-tang". Upon hearing this news, Kim Min Jae's agency confirmed that the actor has accepted the offer to star in the new KBS drama "Dal Li and Gamja-tang".
Kim Min Jae's Character in "Dal Li and Gamja-tang"
"Dal Li and Gamja-tang" is a romantic drama series that will feature the love story of a man and a woman who are two exact opposites. Kim Min Jae will portray the character of Jin Mu Hak, a man who was born from a family who's running a tiny gamja-tang (spicy pork backbone stew) restaurant and eventually grew into the global food corporation DonDon F&B.
He is the director of the company, but Kim Min Jae is far from being a perfect man as he is not that intelligent and was always in the last place of his class ranking when he was still in school. He plans to take hold of an art museum that was originally owned by a woman named Kim Dal Li. During his attempt to seize the museum, he crosses paths with Kim Dal Li and eventually ends up falling in love with her.
It was previously revealed way back in January 2021, that actress Park Gyu Young will possibly star as the female lead as Kim Dal Li. However, there is no confirmation yet from the actress's side. The drama will be penned by Son Eun Hye and helmed by Lee Jung Sub.
