Netflix’s upcoming drama “Cashero” has confirmed its star-studded lineup!
Based on the webtoon of the same name, “Cashero” is a superhero series that follows the story of ordinary government employee Kang Sang Woong (Lee Junho), who earns the special ability to gain as much strength as the cash he holds, causing him to empty his wallet to save the world.
The upcoming drama will be helmed by director Lee Chang Min of “Agency” and “Welcome to Waikiki” and penned by screenwriters Lee Je In and Cheon Chan Ho who penned “Sisyphus : The Myth.”
“King the Land” and “The Red Sleeve” star Lee Junho will be playing the role of Kang Sang Woong who becomes stronger in proportion to the cash he has. Kang Sang Woong, who is an ordinary community center official who dreams of buying his own house, inherits a supernatural ability that changes his life around. Lee Junho will dynamically portray Kang Sang Woong’s struggles as he loses money after losing his ability.
Kim Hye Joon, who impressed in “Kingdom,” “Inspector Koo,” “A Shop for Killers,” and more, will be starring as Kang Sang Woong’s longtime girlfriend Kim Min Sook. As an extremely analytical and realistic person, Kim Min Sook considers efficiency more important than anything else, and she has a unique talent for numbers, busting out a calculator at the sight of Kang Sang Woong’s unbelievable abilities. Although she believes Kang Sang Woong’s work as Cashero to be inefficient, she supports him more than anyone else.
Kim Byung Chul, who captivated audiences through numerous hit works including “Doctor Cha,” “SKY Castle,” “Descendants of the Sun,” “Guardian: The Lonely and Great God,” and more, will be playing the role of Byun Ho In, a lawyer whose supernatural abilities activate when he drinks. He’s a figure who stands off against a mysterious organization that hunts down those with supernatural powers. After recognizing Kang Sang Woong’s unique abilities, Byun Ho In suggests that the two work together to save the world.
“Along With the Gods” and “Poong, The Joseon Psychiatrist” star Kim Hyang Gi will be playing Bang Eun Mi whose supernatural powers activate based on her caloric intake. As a fearless and slightly shameless character, Bang Eun Mi is a reliable peer to Kang Sang Woong and Byun Ho In, raising anticipation for their synergy.
