Actress Han Chae Ah has been cast as the lead female role in the KBS drama “Bride Mask.” The star’s agency confirmed on February 13 that Han will play the role of Chae Hong-joo, who is a singer, gambler and spy. In the television show, Chae will try her best to win over her love interest Lee Kang-to, played by Joo Won.

“Han is usually associated with sexy and friendly female roles,” the agency said. “However in this piece, the audience will see a new side of her that is full of fatal attraction.”

Actor Shin Hyun-joon will also make a guest appearance on the program as the brother of Lee Kang-to.

The drama is set during Japan’s colonial rule of Korea and is based on a heroic figure who wears a kaksital, the mask of the bride character in traditional mask dances. It will air beginning in May on KBS.
