Kim So Hye Is A Genius Boxer Who Suddenly Disappears In New Sports Drama With Lee Sang Yeob

 

KBS2’s upcoming drama “Pure Boxer” (literal title) has dropped a new poster!

 

“Pure Boxer” is a sports drama based on the novel “Pure Boxer Lee Kwon Sook” written by Choo Jong Nam, the winner of the second Kyobo Bookstore Story Contest. It is a story about genius boxer Lee Kwon Sook (Kim So Hye) and a cold-blooded agent who doesn’t feel guilty of match-fixing for money and the success of his athletes.

 

The newly released poster depicts an empty boxing ring where there are only boxing gloves and a sprinkle donut with a bite mark that seem to have been left by someone in a rush.

On top of this mysterious atmosphere, the text that reads, “Where did the genius boxer disappear to?” makes viewers curious to find out about the story behind the missing genius boxer Lee Kwon Sook and whether she can safely return to the boxing ring.

 

Kim So Hye will play Lee Kwon Sook, a genius boxer who emerged as a boxing star at the age of 17. Lee Kwon Sook, who disappeared right before achieving the Grand Slam, was living a new life, but when she meets the evil agent Kim Tae Young, she faces a new turning point.

 

Lee Sang Yeob will take on the role of Kim Tae Young, an S&P Sports agent who coaxes talented athletes and retires them in a short period of time after taking the lion’s share. Kim Tae Young approaches Lee Kwon Sook, who disappeared three years ago for top pitcher Kim Hee Won.

Drama Reported To Star Lee Sang Yeob And Apink’s Jung Eun Ji Denies Rumors Of Cancellation

Drama Reported To Star Lee Sang Yeob And Apink’s Jung Eun Ji Denies Rumors Of Cancellation

 

Upcoming drama “Genie, Earth” (literal title) has denied reports of production on the show being halted.

 

On June 20, StarNews reported that the drama “Genie, Earth” had recently been cancelled while still in pre-production. Described as a fantasy rom-com action drama, “Genie, Earth” was previously reported to star Lee Sang Yeob and Apink’s Jung Eun Ji, both of whom confirmed back in April that they were in talks to play the leading roles.

 

However, later that same day, the producers of “Genie, Earth” denied the cancellation rumors. The production team told news outlet OSEN, “There was an article published about production falling apart, but it isn’t true. We are currently in the process of negotiating the broadcast programming.”

 

They went on to elaborate, “It’s true that we originally planned to negotiate broadcast programming for the drama after it was filmed as a pre-produced series. But there was a change in the investment schedule, and so we wound up negotiating the broadcast programming first.”

 

“However, that doesn’t mean that production has been cancelled,” they continued. “From the cast to the crew, everyone is waiting together for filming to begin.”

 

The producers concluded, “We are currently in the process of negotiating so that production can proceed quickly. We are also in the midst of a broad range of discussions regarding programming, and we are making efforts to begin filming [as soon as possible].”

 

“Genie, Earth” will tell the story of a former prosecutor who accidentally develops superpowers after coming into contact with an extraterrestrial substance. Together with a former special forces counterterrorism unit instructor, he sets out to save the world from evil forces who seek to take over the planet.
