This will be the first project for Yoo Hae-jin since the Joseon thriller "The Night Owl" last November. He will likely appear in the romantic comedy "HoneySweet" before "Moral Hazard" comes to theaters as "HoneySweet" has already finished production. Between "The Night Owl" and "Confidential Assignment 2: International" last year, Yoo Hae-jin earned ten million admissions at the South Korean box office.
Lee Je-hoon will play his antagonist, an ace at the global firm set to try and take the other company over. Few other details are known about this character, including his name. This confirmation comes as Lee Je-hoon's highly popular ongoing television drama "Taxi Driver 2" is set to come to an end. Choi Yoon-jin of "The Office" will direct the project. Filming for "Moral Hazard" is expected to begin on April 14th, with a possible release date as yet unknown.
