Kim Jun Han Is Kim Hye Yoon’s Team Leader Who Suddenly Shows Up After Being Out Of Contact In New Film “Whispering Water”
The upcoming horror film “Whispering Water” has released its first stills of Kim Jun Han! “Whispering Water” is a horror film about a production crew sent to a reservoir named Salmokji to reshoot road-view footage after an unidentified figure was spotted in their initial footage. There, they encounter a mysterious presence lurking in the dark, deep water. Kim Jun Han plays Kyo Sik, Su In’s (Kim Hye Yoon) senior and a mysterious figure. In the film, he takes on the most enigmatic role of his career, adding to the film’s chilling and eerie tension. Kyo Sik is the Onroad Media team leader who usually focuses only on work and is a senior Su In trusts and follows more than anyone else. After a business trip to Salmokji, during which he lost contact, he suddenly appears in front of the film crew upon their arrival at the reservoir. He acts calmly as if nothing happened, but he soon repeats strange, incomprehensible behaviors, gradually increasing a sense of unease. The stills capture Kyo Sik’s contrasting moods, moving between the day and night in Salmokji and between warmth and coldness, creating a subtle tension. In particular, his figure standing in the darkness of Salmokji with a meaningful expression hints at a hidden secret he holds. Kim Jun Han described the character, saying, “Kyo Sik is a mysterious figure, a role that leaves the audience questioning him.” Director Lee Sang Min added, “Kyo Sik is a figure whose thoughts are impossible to read, and Kim Jun Han’s impression and voice fit him perfectly.” “Whispering Water” is scheduled to hit theaters on April 8.

Lee Jong Suk and Lee Jun Hyuk will be starring in two new dramas set within the same fictional universe! On February 23, ACE FACTORY announced, “Lee Jong Suk will be starring in ‘Iseop’s Romance,’ and Lee Jun Hyuk will be playing the lead in ‘A Casual Lie.’” “Iseop’s Romance” and “A Casual Lie” (working titles) are adaptations of the popular web novels of the same name, both of which were written by author Kim Eon Hee. Despite telling separate stories with different protagonists, both novels are set in the same universe, and their upcoming drama adaptations will therefore be connected as well. “Iseop’s Romance” tells the love story of Tae I Seop, a third-generation chaebol heir who is perfect at everything except for romance, and Kang Min Kyeong, the talented “secret weapon” of TK Group. Meanwhile, “A Casual Lie” follows the story of Tae Jun Seop, the grandson of TK Group chairman Tae Si Hwan, and Yeon Woo Kyung, a copywriter who suddenly enters his life, as they get swept up in TK Group’s succession race. Notably, the characters of Tae I Seop and Tae Jun Seop—who will be played by Lee Jong Suk and Lee Jun Hyuk respectively—are cousins. “Iseop’s Romance” and “A Casual Lie,” which are currently scheduled to be produced simultaneously due to their connected stories, are set to begin filming within the year.
