Jang Hyuk will be returning with a new action film!

Jang Hyuk has been cast in the upcoming film "The Child Who Deserves To Die", and it will be directed by Choi Jae Hoon of "The Swordsman".

The film is based on a novel of the same name written by Bang Jin Ho and tells a story about a retired killer who gets swept up in a case while using violence to protect an adolescent girl he suddenly becomes in charge of.

I hope the process of him overcoming his trauma and changing the messed up environment is portrayed in a refreshingly straightforward manner, and I'm thinking a lot about ways to show a diverse and new style of action film in which I can present a new and fresh style, so please anticipate it a lot".

"The Child Who Deserves To Die" will begin filming in June.
