Actors Ha Jung-woo and Lee Ha-nee are to meet as a married couple in Ha’s fourth directorial project, according to local reports.

Tentatively titled “The People Upstairs” (translated), the film follows the drama that occurs during a dinner between two married couples who meet due to noise between floors of their building.

It was previously reported that the film would feature actors Kim Dong-wook and Kong Hyo-jin, who will also appear as a married couple.

The upcoming film will start shooting on Jan. 7 and is targeting a 2025 release, according to local reports.

Ha has previously directed films “Fasten Your Seatbelt” (2013), “Chronicle of a Blood Merchant” (2015) and the upcoming “Lobby.”

The director-slash-actor recently opened a solo art exhibition in October at Hakgojae Gallery in Jongno District, central Seoul. Hakgojae is one of the major galleries in Korea, having represented big-name artists including Nam June Paik, Lee Ufan and Yun Suknam.
