Kim Seon Ho carefully chooses his next K-drama.

On March 16, Kim Seon Ho's agency SALT Entertainment announced that the actor has decided to not star in the upcoming K-drama Haesi's Shinru.

Back in October 2022, Kim Seon Ho was positively considering returning to the drama scene with Haesi's Shinru. The agency revealed that after discussing it with the production company of the said K-drama, they have decided to decline the offer.

Haesi's Shinru is a historical romance drama that takes place during King Sejong's reign in the Joseon era. It tells the story of Crown Prince Lee Hyang - a genius scientist who loved gazing at stars - and Hae Ru - a mysterious woman who sees the future. Kim Seon Ho was on the cast list for the role of the genius scientist Crown Prince Lee Hyang but ultimately decided not to appear.

However, Kim Seon Ho's fans will be able to see him in an upcoming action-thriller alongside Cha Seung Won and Kim Kang Woo. He is currently filming for the movie Tyrant, directed by Park Hoon Jung. . The actor is also on tour for Kim Seon Ho's 'One, Two, Three, Smile' 2023 Fan Meeting.

Tyrant is a story about a group of people chasing the last sample of the Tyrant Program, which was lost in a delivery accident. On the trial of the sample are three men - a former agent Lim Sang (Cha Seung Won), tasked with the duty to execute people associated with the Tyrant Program; the bureau director of a government agency Choi Gook Jang (Kim Seon Ho), operating the Tyrant Program unofficially; and Paul (Kim Kang Woo), a foreign intelligence agency agent who aims to rid the last sample of the Tyrant Program.

The movie is expected to premiere sometime in 2023 or early 2024.

The Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha actor also took up another K-drama titled Into the Dead (working title) as his next project. Into the Dead is expected to be an 8-episode series that follows the story of a sister digging into the death of her younger brother. Director Kim Jee Woon of the movie I Saw the Devil and director Park Bo Ram of Through the Darkness will direct the film. More news is yet to come about the K-drama's release.
