According to her agency Ascend on the 28th, Park Ji-won has confirmed her role as Ally in the musical 'Hell's Kitchen,' which opens in July at Seoul Gangnam-gu GS Art Center.

'Hell's Kitchen' is a work inspired by the music and life of American singer-songwriter Alicia Keys. Set in the Hell's Kitchen neighborhood of Manhattan, New York, the story follows the growth of a girl named Ally as she finds her life and voice through music.

Park Ji-won, cast as Ally, is expected to captivate audiences with her charming vocal tone and outstanding singing ability. Recently, Park participated in singing the OST 'Here I Am' for the drama 'Law Firm with a God,' and also served as the MC for the web variety show 'Workdol,' actively working as a versatile entertainer across both music and broadcasting. This has drawn significant attention to what new side of her will be revealed in 'Hell's Kitchen.'
