A drama official told JTBC Enter News on April 4th, “Lee Sang Yeob and Jung Eun Ji have been selected to take the lead roles in the drama ‘Genie, Earth’.” In this regard, officials from the agencies of both Lee Sang Yeob and Jung Eun Ji said, “We are reviewing this work after receiving an offer.”
“Genie, Earth” tells the story of former prosecutor Kyu Tae, who accidentally gains supernatural powers from alien materials, fighting against the evil forces that try to rule the world. Initially known as “Hero”, the title was finalized as “Genie, Earth”. The drama combines elements of fantasy, romance, action and comedy.
