There have been many international interests in the drama “City Conquest” by actor and singer Kim Hyun Joong.

His management Key East revealed on the 4th, “We have signed contracts with Japan, China, Hong Kong and Taiwan for an estimated 11.8 billion won” (~US$11 million).

This is an achievement made just with the news of Kim Hyun Joong’s appearance in the drama without any filming.
