King Of The Desert (literal title), the first series of Watcha’s “Kim Botong Project,” has confirmed its full cast.
The new Watcha original series King Of The Desert is penned by Kim Botong, best known as the author of the webtoon “D.P. Dog’s Day” which previously got the Netflix remake as D.P. Today, the show confirmed the casting of Jin Goo, Yang Dong Geun, Jang Dong Yoon, Kim Jae Hwa, Lee Hong Nae, Jung Yi Seo, Park Ye Rin, and more.
King Of The Desert follows the choices of those who believe that money is everything and those who believe there’s more than money in life.
The first to join the cast is Descendants of the Sun actor Jin Goo, who’s also making his silver-screen comeback in The Witch Part2. The Other One. Joining him are Yaksha: Ruthless Operations actor Yang Dong Geun and The Tale of Nokdu star Jang Dong Yoon.
Then there are Escape from Mogadishu actress Kim Jae Hwa, Hot Blooded actor Lee Hong Nae, All of Us Are Dead actress Jung Yi Seo, and Space Sweepers child actor Park Ye Rin.
King Of The Desert has drawn keen attention as the first series of the Kim Botong Project that crosses the border between webtoons and video. In particular, Kim Botong, better known as the webtoon author, will be participating in the project as the director alongside director Lee Tak. One thing to note here is the fact that King Of The Desert will also be released as a webtoon with the series.
Meanwhile, King Of The Desert will be released exclusively on Watcha in the latter half of 2022.
