Plus X ENM’s upcoming short-form drama The Devil’s Kiss has officially revealed its casting lineup, signaling an ambitious move into the rapidly expanding global short-form content market. Designed as a strategic production tailored for short-form platforms, the project aims to blend multinational star power with the loyalty of global fandoms.
Taking on the male lead role of Lucien is Kongthap Peak. A multi-talented entertainer with an international background, Kongthap Peak is fluent in Thai, English, Korean, and Chinese. He first captured attention across Asia through his appearance on the survival program Produce X 101 and later expanded his acting portfolio through Thailand’s Channel 3 dramas and Netflix titles such as Dare to Love and Money, My Love. With an established international fanbase, he is expected to anchor the series’ global appeal.
Opposite him, Kim Seung Hye steps into the female lead role of Lee Sara. After debuting in the short-form content Nonexistent Movie, she gained recognition through her leading performance in Devilish Girlfriend. In The Devil’s Kiss, she is set to portray a character balancing innocence with chilling ruthlessness, promising a striking acting transformation.
The second male lead, Jung Ha Joon, will be portrayed by Park Eun Sung, who has steadily built his acting credentials through projects such as the commercial film Amor Fati and the short film Soul Button Machine. His character represents profound devotion and sacrifice, offering a contrasting emotional arc within the story’s darker themes.
Meanwhile, the second female lead Bella will be played by Ogawa Mizuki (Léa), formerly a member of the K-pop girl group SECRET NUMBER. Drawing on the stage charisma and expressiveness she cultivated as an idol, she continues to transition into acting through various short-form dramas. In this project, she will embody a devilish figure layered with both allure and danger.
Adding further intrigue, Shin Jaewon, formerly of the K-pop group The Wind, joins the cast as the supporting character Tae El. Having gained performance experience through JTBC’s survival programs PROJECT 7 and Sing Again 4, he is now expanding his career from music into acting.
A representative from Plus X ENM stated that by combining Kongthap Peak’s global fandom with the fresh energy of Korean actors, the production anticipates strong traction across short-form platforms. The company also plans to enhance impact through strategic synergy between the drama and its original soundtrack (OST), aligning music and narrative for maximum audience engagement.
The official release date of The Devil’s Kiss will be announced at a later time.
