On the morning of the 28th, a production presentation was held at the entrance of Lotte Cinema Konkuk University in Gwangjin-gu, Seoul. Actors Lee Jung-ha, Kim Do-wan, Kim Sang-ho, Kim Ju-ryeong, Yoo Hee-je, Yuk Jun-seo, Lim Sung-kyun and Lee Sung-tae attended the meeting.
'ONE: High School Heroes' is a high school action drama in which the top student 'Uigyeom' (Lee Jung-ha), who suffered from his father's oppression, and 'Yoon-gi' (Kim Do-wan), who tries to take advantage of his natural fighting talent, form a masked 'High School Heroes' to explode pent-up anger, overturning the school violence ranking. Actor Lee Jung-ha, who has established himself as a popular actor through the global series Moving, made an intense acting transformation by breaking down his suppressed fighting instinct into the first place in the school 'Uigyeom', and actor Kim Do-wan, who is drawing attention for his solid acting skills in the genre of 'Yoon-gi', saw through his fighting talent and led the formation of High School Heroes.
Director Lee said, `He is a bright and smiling actor who looks amazingly like the pent-up Uigyeom character.' `I was impressed by the moments when he naturally created emotions and his eyes turned scary.'
As for Kim Do-wan "I really wanted to work with him while looking at his previous works. He is a good person and good at acting. Most of all, isn't he handsome. That was the best," he added, bringing laughter to the scene.
Meanwhile, 'ONE: High School Heroes' will be released for the first time from episodes 1 to 4 on the 30th, with episodes 5 and 6 on June 6 and episodes 7 and 8 sequentially on the 13th.
