Choi Woo-shik's agency denies even receiving an offer
In June 2024, rumors surfaced that Kim Da-mi was considering the lead role in A Hundred Memories after receiving an offer. On August 29, another rumor suggested that Woo-shik would join her as the male lead in the drama.
This could have marked their third collaboration, sparking excitement among fans eager to see their evolving on-screen chemistry. The duo previously starred together in the 2018 film The Witch: Part 1 - The Subversion and the hit 2021 romance drama Our Beloved Summer.
However, fans were disappointed to learn that Choi Woo-shik will not be appearing alongside Kim Da-mi in the upcoming drama A Hundred Memories, as his agency clarified that he was never offered the role, contrary to earlier reports.
A Hundred Memories, a JTBC period drama set in the 1980s, revolves around the friendships and romantic lives of bus conductors who assisted passengers on buses. The drama has drawn attention, as Kim Da-mi is reportedly considering the role of Ko Young-rye, a conductor for Cheong-a Transport in the series.
Directed by Kim Sang-ho, known for Thirty-Nine, and written by Yang Hee-sung, the writer behind tvN's Crash Course in Romance, the drama is being produced by the well-established company SLL. Filming is set to begin in January 2025, with its release expected in the second half of the year.
Recent projects of Choi Woo-shik
Choi Woo-shik gained international recognition for his role as Kim Ki-woo, also known as Kevin, in the critically acclaimed 2019 film Parasite. Since then, he has appeared in several dramas and graced the covers of various magazines, with his most recent appearance on the cover of Cosmopolitan Korea.
He also recently starred in the Netflix drama series A Killer Paradox, where he plays Lee Tang, a typical college student. While working part-time at a convenience store, he gets into a confrontation with a rude, intoxicated man and accidentally kills him, fearing that his life is now ruined.
However, the man he killed turned out to be a serial killer who had been on the run for four years. Lee Tang soon realizes he has a unique ability to identify evildoers who deserve to die, and he becomes a serial killer to rid the world of these wicked individuals.
Detective Jang Nan-Gam, portrayed by Son Suk-Ku, suspects Lee Tang is indeed the murderer and begins an investigation. Meanwhile, Song Chon, a former detective - played by Lee Hee-Jun - is also independently hunting down Lee Tang.
