[Orion's Daily Ramblings] Body-swap Drama "Room No.9" to Follow "Mr. Sunshine" in September

I'm still playing the guessing game on the main cast of "Room No.9", as all three potential leads have been courted for a while, but with no official confirmations involved at the time. Regardless, the drama now has its timeslot with tvN, as it is planning a premiere following "Mr. Sunshine" in September. The drama has released information on the characters along with the news.

Kim Hee-sun plays lawyer Eul Ji Hae Yi, who works for a law firm. She puts the title of a lawyer to shame by being someone who sucks up to the powerful and ignores the powerless, in other words, a lawyer without convictions of her own. She is currently on her 10th year as a lawyer and about to be promoted to a senior partner.

Kim Hae-sook is courted for Jang Hwa-soo, the perpetrator of an infamous poisoning murder case that shook the country. Her execution has been postponed for 33 years. She used to be in the accounting department of the predecessor for SC Group, Se Woong Trading Company starting at age 19, where she worked hard for 3 years in order to earn the founder's trust.

Kim Young-kwang will be playing Gi Yoo-jin, a fellow at Se Woong Hospital. He plays a key role in the fate between Kim Hee-sun and Kim Hae-sook's characters. The question is, does he hold this crucial position willingly and knowingly, or is his fate simply tied to their body-swap? We have plenty of time to find out the details of "Room No.9", and to hopefully see some casting confirmations for it.
