The film 'Cherry Boy' has confirmed the casting of actors Lee Jae-in, Kim Mu-jun, and Jang Da-a and is set to begin shooting.

As 'Cherry Boy' prepares for its first shooting on the 24th, stills from the reading session have been released. 'Cherry Boy' tells the story of a rural high school girl from Gangwon Province who secretly writes erotic novels to save money for college in Seoul, where she meets a sharp and handsome male transfer student from Seoul and finds inspiration.

First, actor Lee Jae-in, who has established herself as a acting genius by showcasing versatile transformations in works ranging from the film 'Sabaha' to 'Haifa Eve', and the dramas 'Racket Boys', 'Unknown Seoul', and 'Concrete Market', will lead this project. She will play Ok-hee, a high school girl writing erotic novels with the goal of entering university, and is set to vividly portray the fresh yet distinctive face of youth.

Next, actor Kim Mu-jun, who captured attention through dramas such as 'Kisses Are Not for Nothing!', 'The Speed of 493km to You', and 'Lovers', will make his screen debut playing Lee Hwan, a male student who transfers to Seoul due to the aftermath of the IMF crisis and inspires Ok-hee. Additionally, Jang Da-a, who recently made a successful screen debut with the film 'Salmokji', will play Jeong-suk, Ok-hee's best friend and a girl with stunning beauty who dreams of debuting as an entertainer, exuding a lively charm that will add vitality to the film.

With trusted actors joining the cast, the film is expected to be infused with new energy. Jeon So-young, who is set to release the Netflix drama 'Girigyo', will make a special appearance as Su-ji, Lee Hwan's first love older sister, raising expectations for the birth of a new first love icon.

Furthermore, Park Myung-hoon will play teacher Jeong-rak, who becomes interested in Ok-hee's novel due to a chance incident; Kang Mal-geum will play Ok-hee's mother, who is tormented by thoughts of her college student son who went to Seoul and her longing for Ok-hee's older brother; Jeon Seok-ho will play Peng Ho-seok, Ok-hee's father's friend and a bossy tax accountant; and Yura will play teacher Na-hee, who is relentlessly pursued by Jeong-rak, completing a rich acting ensemble.

Before the first shooting, Lee Jae-in, who completed the reading session, said, "The set has been cheerful and enjoyable from the start, and I expect a fun work to be born. I will greet you with a good work." Kim Mu-jun added, "I am nervous about my first film challenge, but I will do my best to make it well together with great actors and the director." Jang Da-a shared, "I look forward to seeing how the fresh and lovely story in the script will be born as a film." Director Park Hyun-cheol, who is directing the project, stated, "I believe this will be a fresh work created with the youth actors. I will do my best to make it a good film for the actors, staff, and audience who are participating with me."

The film 'Cherry Boy', which will depict the awkward yet sparkling first moments of youth, is scheduled to begin shooting on April 24.
