Nam Joo Hyuk cast in his first male lead role in a film for remake of 'Josee, the Tiger and the Fish'

AKP STAFF

Actor Nam Joo Hyuk has been cast in his first ever male lead role in a film - a Korean remake of a 2003 Japanese film titled 'Josee, the Tiger and the Fish'.

The Korean film remake will be shortened to the title 'Josee'. The original 'Josee, the Tiger and the Fish' tells the sweet, yet sorrowful love story between a disabled girl named Josee, and an ordinary college student named Tsuneo. 

Filming for 'Josee' is expected to kick off this October, with the production slated for premiere some time early next year.
