Kim Hi Eo Ra is currently starring in the recently premiered K-drama The Uncanny Counter Season 2: Counter Punch together with Byeong Kyu, Kim Se Jeong, Yoo Joon Sang, Yeom Hye Ran, Ahn Suk Hwan, and Yoo In Soo.
There are no reports yet on the next project of the actress after her villain role in The Uncanny Counter Season 2: Counter Punch.
Early this year, Kim Hi Eo Ra became more known to the public after she starred in the Netflix original K-drama The Glory Part 2.
