Director : Park Man Yung 박만영
Scriptwriter : Baek Wun Chul 백운철
Main Cast: Eric, Goo Hye Sun
Shinhwa member Eric (Mun Jung Hyuk, 29) will be displaying his acting skills for the last time before he enlists into the army.
The KBS2 drama, 최강칠우 (Choi Gang Chiru / Strongest Chiru – working title) from 9 June onwards, every Monday and Tuesday at 9.55pm. Scripted by Baek Yoon Chul and produced by Park Man Young, the drama will star Eric as the male lead character Kang Chiru (working name).
“Strongest Chiru” is KBS’s latest sageuk drama after “Hong Gil Dong”. Eric will play a lowly officer in a 의금부 (eui geum bu) (a court that handles crimes of treason) in the Joseon era, nondescript, not very smart and whose lifelong ambition is to become a mid-level officer. However when night falls, he transforms into the top assassin in an assassination organization, who metes out punishment to evildoers and gives justice where needed. This challenging role will see him play out a man with two vastly different characters.
The court, the equivalent of the modern-day police department in the Joseon era, will be the setting for the drama, and the sageuk drama will feature action scenes with assassins with various secrets.
After starring in MBC’s “Que Sera Sera” last May, Eric has been busy with Shinhwa’s overseas activities. This will be the last drama project before he enlists into the army.
Eric, unlike the other members, hasn’t had any solo album activities beside Shinhwa group activities.
Shinhwa’s 9th album is due to be released very soon, and when interviewed Eric sad, “I took a long break because my health condition wasn’t that good. Now I’m in my peak condition.”
Eric’s management company Top Class Entertainment expressed, “Eric can’t really relate himself to a sageuk drama, but as the script is very interesting, he decided on it as his next project. After a year’s break, he’s now in the pink of health. This drama is expected to end in mid-August and he’s scheduled to enlist in September”.

Hello co2r,
Wonder if you’ll upload the last 2 episodes on MU?
Thanks so much for uploading.
