On March 3rd, the cast of the Korean "Kimi wa Petto" film remake attended a launch event in Japan's Ibaraki Airport. "Kimi wa Petto" (You're My Pet), based on a manga of the same name, was made into a hit drama in 2003, starring model/actress Koyuki and Arashi's Matsumoto Jun, and the same roles will be portrayed by actors Kim Ha Neul and Jang Geun Suk in the remake. In the original story, the male character becomes the 'pet' of the female protagonist after being found abandoned in a cardboard box. The two lead actors attended the promotional event along with band group FT Island's Choi Jong Hun and director Kim Byeong Kon. The cast met with around 3000 fans.

Jang replied, "I'm happy to be Ha Neul's pet." Filming for the movie will begin in the city of Ibaraki in May. Source: WoWKorea via goo & Yomiuri Online
