Kim Min Ha and others are connected to the 'Light Shop' in Disney+ series

Disney+'s upcoming K-drama Light Shop dropped new stills, featuring actors Kim Min Ha, Park Hyuk Kwon, Kim Seon Hwa, and Kim Ki Hae.

Light Shop is a story that unravels when people with secrets visit a mysterious light shop, the only place that lights up the end of a dark alley. A-list actors, including Ju Ji Hoon, Park Bo Young, Uhm Tae Goo, Bae Sung Woo, Lee Jung Eun, and more, are starring in the K-drama. 

Kim Min Ha takes on the role of Seon Hae, a woman who has recently moved into an old villa. She is a sensitive character with keen senses. Seon Hae works as a screenwriter and begins to experience strange events after moving in. From light bulbs breaking to finding traces of strangers in her home, she is gripped by fear due to the eerie happenings.

Regarding Kang Full's screenplay, Kim Min Ha shared, "I think it is a really good piece of writing because it is tightly structured, and I was fascinated by the worldview, which felt as if it could exist in real life." Director Kim Hee Won and writer Kang Full praised Kim Min Ha saying she "made every effort to portray the character." They described her as a "profound actress."

Park Hyuk Kwon takes on the role of Seung Won, a mysterious man who roams the dark alleyways, always drenched. In the stills, his desperate yet empty gaze as he searches for something piques viewers' curiosity about his story. 

Park Hyuk Kwon shared, "I read the entire script in one go after receiving it — it is such an interesting piece." He added, "I put in a lot of effort to expand beyond the lines written in the script and express the character through my acting." Writer Kang Full remarked, "I really wanted to see Park Hyuk Kwon portray Seung Won."

Kim Seon Hwa takes on the role of Hye Won, a woman who wanders the dark alleyways wearing red heels on rainy nights. 

To align with the webtoon character, Kim Seon Hwa revealed that she put in special effort. She shared, "To create a unique look, I changed my standing posture, and I worked with a choreographer to develop a gait unique to Hye Won." Director Kim Hee Won called her "the #1 actor in terms of synchronicity with the original [webtoon] character."

Kim Ki Hae, who takes on the role of Ji Woong in this production, landed the part after passing a highly competitive audition. Ji Woong is a high school student who has to walk through dark alleys to get home, encountering various mysterious figures wandering around the Light Shop. 

Kim Ki Hae shared, "Not all scenes were easy, but I expressed the character while thinking about how to explore the moments that Ji Woong experiences."

Light Shop will air a total of 8 episodes. The K-drama will release four episodes on December 4, followed by two episodes each week, only on Disney+.
