The cast of the upcoming supernatural thriller Revenant, along with the production team, came together for the script reading session of the K-drama, to give a glimpse of their synergy and the roles they play.

Kim Tae Ri plays the role of Ku San Young - a young woman who works part-time jobs during the day to earn her livelihood and studies during the night to seek a job as a public officer. But her routine life takes a drastic turn when she receives her father's heirloom which brings forth a series of perplexing incidents and leaves her possessed by an evil spirit.

The actress skillfully portrayed the complex character of Ku San Young, who consistently gives her best even in the face of harsh realities, and is possessed by an evil spirit. Her performance created a palpable sense of tension and fear, leaving everyone impressed and fully engaged.

Oh Jung Se plays the role of Yeom Hae Sang, a professor teaching Korean folklore at a university who has had a unique ability to see evil forces since childhood. It is because of this unique ability, Yeom Hae Sang struggles to connect with others and immerses himself in the study of folklore. Unfazed by the weight of the role, Oh Jung Se skillfully portrayed the character with a sombre expression and a commanding voice, effectively bringing to life a passionate scholar who perseveres to unravel the mysteries surrounding evil spirits.

Hong Kyung, in his role as police officer Lee Hong Sae, also lived up to the expectations. Lee Hong Sae is a detective with a strong sense of individuality, who gets entangled in mysterious cases along with Ku San Young and Yeom Hae Sang.

Through his solid performance and nuanced expressions, Hong Kyung has proved his acting prowess, taking a leap in his career from being the "rising star of the next generation" to a "skilled actor".

Along with Kim Tae Ri, Oh Jung Se, Hong Kyung, director Lee Jung Rim, and writer Kim Eun Hee, others who attended the session include Park Ji Young (as San Young's mother), Yoon Gyeong Moon, Kim Won Hae, Seo Mun Chun, Kim Seok Ran, Ye Soo Jeong. Jin Seon Kyu also attended to play the part of Ku San Young's father.
