First script reading for tvN’s Stealer: Seven Joseon Coins

by tccolb

We’re finally making some headway on tvN’s Stealer: Seven Joseon Coins (roughly translated), with new stills featuring our main cast at the action-comedy caper’s first script reading.

With the formation of a secret cultural heritage recovery team called Karma, they get on the scent (hehe) of the infamous thief “Skunk,” who specializes in snatching cultural artifacts. But what results is a partnership between the two unlikely parties, deciding instead to “steal” from the stealers who can’t be caught using the law alone.

Joo-won (Alice) takes on the lead role of Hwang Dae-myung, a civil servant who works in the cultural heritage administration. Uninvolved and unmotivated by his work, he’s considered by his colleagues to be just a chair warmer in the office. But considering Joo-won is our protagonist, it’s likely that he will be – or is at least somehow connected to – the mysterious Skunk himself.

In contrast to Dae-myung, we find passion in spades on the police force starting with the confident Choi Min-woo, who is played by Lee Joo-woo (Why Her). We also have Jo Han-chul (Big Bet) as our experienced team lead Jang Tae-in, heading the cultural property task force.

Rounding out the group, we can’t forget Kim Jae-won (Our Blues) in the role of the energetic maknae Shin Chang-hoon. All the while Choi Hwa-jung’s (Jealousy Incarnate) Lee Choon-ja will be playing the team’s resident hacker.

Last but not least, our story’s big bad will be played by Lee Deok-hwa (One Dollar Lawyer), taking on the part of the ambitious and wealthy Kim Young-soo.

Written by Shin Kyung-il with PD Choi Joon-bae (Mouse, Come Here and Hug Me) at the helm, Stealer: Seven Joseon Coins is slated for tvN’s Wednesday-Thursday slot, premiering next month on April 12.
