Kim Ji-eun confirms lead role in chase-action film 'H-521,' her screen debut

Kim Ji-eun, 32, has confirmed her lead role in H-521 (working title). It's her first film.

The story is a chase-action thriller that weaves fiction around an actual event in Almaty, Kazakhstan. Kim carries the central narrative through what the production describes as a tense, high-stakes story.

Her drama résumé already speaks for itself. She took her first TV lead in Black Sun (검은태양) and won the Best New Actress Award at the Acting Awards. Next came A Lawyer of Extraordinary Category (천원짜리 변호사), where she picked up the Best Supporting Actress Award. Again My Life (어게인 마이 라이프) added further lead and supporting credits.

More recently she appeared in the historical drama Check In Hanyang (체크인 한양) and the drama My Mom's Friend's Son (엄마친구아들). Two awards. Multiple leads. Now a film top-billed.
