T-ara’s Hyomin cast for MBC’s upcoming historical drama, ‘Gyebaek’

With T-ara’s promotions for “Roly-Poly” well underway, member Hyomin will face a busier schedule now that she’s been cast for MBC’s upcoming historical drama, ‘Gyebaek‘.

On July 15th, a representative of Core Contents Media confirmed, “Hyomin has decided to star in ‘Gyebaek’, but former reports of her being the leading female role are false.”

Speaking on her role, they revealed, “Hyomin will be playing the role of a woman who goes through heartache as the friend of ‘Eun Go’, who secretly loves ‘Gyebaek’.”

Although Hyomin already gained some acting experience with her movie, ‘Gisaeng Ryung‘, and her SBS drama, ‘My Girlfriend is a Gumiho‘, this will be her first time working on a historical drama.

Directed by Kim Geun Hong (‘Queen Seonduk‘) and writer Jung Hyung Soo (‘Damo‘), the drama will begin airing after ‘Miss Ripley’ concludes on July 25th.
