KANG Woo-suk Preps Joseon Version of Two Cops

SEOL Kyung-gu and JI Chang-wook are set to star in Du Pojol (Two Policemen - literal translation), the newest film from KANG Woo-suk who previously directed Silmido (2003) and Public Enemy (2002). Director KANG already selected SEOL Kyung-gu, who already starred in KANG’s Public Enemy series, for the main character, and now rookie JI Chang-wook has been cast as SEOL’s partner.

Director KANG said, “I’m hoping to raise expectations by featuring big stars just like in Two Cops (1993). I aim to have an better and more appealing pairing than AHN Sung-ki and PARK Joong-hoon.” Meanwhile JI Chang-wook is known for TV Series Smile Again (2010) and Empress Qi. He also took supporting roles in the movies Sleeping Beauty (2008) and Death Bell 2: Bloody Camp (2010). “JI’s efforts to not only to gain popularity but also take on a variety of roles appealed to me.” KANG explained.

Du Posol is a detective comedy movie set in the police bureau of Hansung during the Joseon Dynasty. A veteran policemen and a reckless newcomer are breaking cases in the film reminiscent of KANG’s early box office hit Two Cops (1993).
