The Price of Confession – Narrative, cast selection, and conflicts around direction of the series

In December, discussions emerged about Jeon Do Yeon potentially taking on the lead role in this mystery thriller drama, following the departures of Song Hye Kyo and Han So Hee from the cast. While Kim Ji Won was initially in talks to join Jeon Do Yeon, recent reports from Star News indicate that she ultimately turned down the offer. Kim Go Eun has been offered the role in the thriller and is positively considering the offer. If both Jeon Do Yeon and Kim Go Eun accept their respective roles, it will mark their second collaboration since the 2015 film Memories of the Sword. Kim Go Eun is also preparing for the February release of her upcoming film Exhuma.


The narrative of The Price of Confession unfolds a violent saga centered around a murder case involving two women. Originally, director Lee Eung Bok, known for his work on Descendants of the Sun, was set to helm the project. However, in January 2023, he declined the opportunity due to scheduling conflicts, leading to a shift in leadership. Director Lee Jung Hyo, recognized for his work on Crash Landing on You and Doona!, has since taken the reins.
