The actor’s label, Glorious Entertainment, responded to reports of his casting on July 8, clarifying: “Ji Chang Wook was offered a role in ‘Tell Me Your Wish’, and he’s currently reviewing it.”
If the casting is successful Ji Chang Wook will be starring as Yoon Gye Re, an “adult child” who is running away from death. Despite not having any desire for life, he’s barely holding on and inflicts pain onto himself by adding a tattoo to his body, according to Allkpop.
