Park Bo-Gum declines offer to play lead role in tvN drama series “Hwayuki”

Park Bo-Gum has declined an offer to play a lead role in new tvN drama series “Hwayuki.” Cha Seung-Won has previously received an offer to play a co-lead role and he is still considering his offer. The drama series is setup as a modern day reinterpretation of classic Chinese novel “Journey to the West” and the drama series will be scripted by sisters Hong Jung-Eun and Hong Mi-Ran. While the search for the lead actor will continue, “Hwayuki” is still targeted to air sometime this December in South Korea.
