KBS Weekend Drama ‘Father Is Strange’ Finalizes the Cast



KBS’s new weekend drama series, Father Is Strange, takes its first step of the production after finalizing the cast.

Father Is Strange is a heartwarming family drama about a diligent father Byun Han-soo and his family. The drama comically illustrates incidents family members encounter as a singer-turned-actor starts living with the family.

Actor Kim Young-chul and actree Kim Hye-sook are acting the “strange” father and his wife, while Min Jin-woong, Lee Yoo-ri, Jung So-min, and Ryu Hwa-young are featured as siblings. MBLAQ’s Lee Joon acts the singer-turned-actor Ahn Joong-hee who builds a romantic relationship with Jung So-min’s role, Byun Mi-young.

According to an official source, cast members are to have the first read-through on Wednesday, January 11. As KBS’s current weekend drama, The Gentlemen of Wolgyesu Tailor Shop, is building towards the end with a huge success of 35% viewer rating, expectations for the following series, Father Is Strange, is also increasing.

Father Is Strange will start airing in February.
