Actor Kang Dong-won will be transforming into a co-ed dance group in the comedy film ‘Wild Thing’.

According to distributor Lotte Entertainment on the 31st, the comedy film ‘Wild Thing’, starring Kang Dong-won, Um Tae-goo, Park Ji-hyun, and Oh Jung-se, began filming on the 30th.

‘Wild Thing’ is a wild comedy film that depicts the process of the co-ed dance group ‘Triangle’, which once dominated the music industry but disbanded due to an unexpected incident, getting a chance to make a comeback after 20 years and heading back to the stage. Director Son Jae-gon, who directed ‘Sweet, Savage Lover’, ‘No Harm’, took the megaphone.

Kang Dong-won, who is undergoing the most drastic transformation since his debut, plays the role of Hyun-woo, who was once the leader of the three-member mixed dance group ‘Triangle’ and was an active dancing machine, but currently lives as a broadcaster who hangs around the broadcasting station to make a living.

Eom Tae-goo plays the role of Sang-goo, a storm rapper of ‘Triangle’ who has poor rapping skills but is full of passion, and shows off an irresistible charm.

Park Ji-hyun plays the role of Domi, the center of ‘Triangle’, a heavenly vocalist. Although she has been living her life hiding her true self since retirement, she shows off her unexpected charm as a character who cannot control her ‘girl crush’ nature.

Here, irreplaceable actor Oh Jung-se, who presents a unique character in each work, takes on the role of the unfortunate ballader Seong-gon, who was pushed back by ‘Triangle’ and always came in second place, and shows off his outstanding comedic acting.
