It has been learned that Kim, who rose to fame for playing a villainous young queen-to-be in 2012's "Moon Embracing the Sun," is confirmed to take the female lead in the new TV series.
"Let's Fight Ghost" is based on 2007-2010's web-comic, "Ssawooja Gwishina," by Im In-Seu. The TV adaptation is penned by screenwriter Kim Ji Sun and directed by Park Joon Hwa.
The drama revolves around a 19-year-old student, played by Kim, who died in an accident and became a ghost, who meanders carelessly until she meets the 17-year-old Park Bong Pal, an exorcist.

The new TV drama takes over the tvN Mondays and Tuesdays 11 PM KST time slot, previously occupied by "Another Miss Oh," starring Park Do Kyung, Jeon Hye Bin, and Seo Hyun Jin.
