Kwon Nara’s agency A-MAN Project has confirmed that the actress will be joining the upcoming drama “Itaewon Class” (literal title)!

The drama, which stars Park Seo Joon, is based on a popular Daum webtoon of the same name, and is about a group of stubborn, brave young people who rise up in an unfair world. Their world is the Itaewon neighborhood of Seoul, where they open a food business.

Park Seo Joon will be playing the character Park Sae Roy, who doesn’t give one inch in the face of injustice and is quick to jump to action. He is still harboring anger after the death of his father, the CEO of a large food company, when he takes to Itaewon to pursue his dream.

Kwon Nara has taken on the role of Oh Soo Ah, Park Sae Roy’s first love and now an employee of a rival company. She’s a talented, capable career woman whose confidence and honesty win over those around her.

Through her agency, Kwon Nara said, “I was drawn to the straightforward confidence of Oh Soo Ah,” and expressed her determination to do her best in the role.

Meanwhile, Kwon Nara was swept up in a dating rumor yesterday with actor Lee Jong Suk, which was denied by A-MAN Project.
