By William Schwartz | Published on
"I Hate Going to Work", a drama about office life, has released casting information. The drama will star Kim Dong-wan, Han Soo-yeon, So Ju-yeon, and Do Won as company employees. Kim Dong-wan will star as Baek-ho, a legendary employee who has long been fast-tracked for promotion.

"I Hate Going to Work" marks the first appearance of Kim Dong-wan in a leading role in a serial drama in seven years. This is somewhat surprising, since his last major drama "Cheer Up Mr. Kim", consistently achieved ratings above 30%. He had an extremely small role in "Moorim School", and also appeared in a few independent films, but has not been that busy since then.
A six episode pilot program for "I Hate Going to Work" was produced last year. It will appear on KBS2 in an as-yet undetermined timeslot in April.
