tvN’s Historical-Detective Korean Drama ‘Joseon X-Files’

Korean actor Kim Ji Hoon of ‘Stars Falling from the Sky’ and Im Jung Eun of ‘Swallow the Sun’ will team up in tvN’s upcoming historical-detective Korean drama ‘기찰비록’ (literally title ‘Gichalbirok’) aka ‘Joseon X-Files: Secret Investigation Record’.

The tvN cable series is based on mysterious cases in the Annals of Joseon History. Those incidents incorporate mysterious, supernatural elements that cannot be proven through science.

Kim Ji Hoon’s character named Kim Hyung Do, is an agent from the secret organization formed by the King. His investigations into administrative irregularities lead him into direct contact with those bizarre cases. Meanwhile, Im Jung Eun plays as a government employee named Heo Yoon Yi, who gives a hand to him and attempts to understand these unexplainable phenomena with an open mind.

The 12-episodes drama also stars Kim Gab Soo playing as Chief Shin Moo Hoe and Jun So Min (whose stills are below in red dressed) portraying Choi Eui Shin.

‘Joseon X-Files’ began filming this month and will premiere on August 20th.
