‘Under Siege’ could have its stars

Cha Seung-won and Lee Seung-gi

Korean actors Cha Seung-won and Lee Seung-gi might appear in the new SBS drama series tentatively titled “You’re Under Siege,” according to local media reports.

“The two actors are seriously thinking about taking the role in the drama. It is in the final stages, but nothing is certain yet,” said an official yesterday from HB Entertainment, the show’s production company.

The drama is written by Lee Jung-suk, who also took part in KBS2’s “Ojakgyo Family.” It will be produced by Yu In-sik of SBS’s “Giant” (2010), “History of the Salaryman” (2012) and “Incarnation of Money” (2013).

If they take the roles, Lee will reportedly play Eun Dae-gu, an intelligent rookie detective, and Cha will play a hot-blooded chief detective.

The drama is scheduled to air in late April, following “Three Days,” which is set to start on March.
