Lee Tae Hwan In Talks To Join Choi Siwon And Jung In Sun In New Rom-Com Drama

Jan 24, 2024

Lee Tae Hwan may be joining the upcoming drama “DNA Lover” (literal title) as his first project after completing military service!

On January 24, Lee Tae Hwan’s agency Man of Creation shared, “Lee Tae Hwan has received an offer to star in the new drama ‘DNA Lover’ and is currently positively reviewing the offer.”

“DNA Lover” is a romantic comedy that follows the story of Han So Jin, a genetic researcher who has numerous failed relationships, as she searches for her destined partner through genes.

Previously in November, Jung In Sun and Choi Siwon were revealed to be in talks for the drama. Last week in January, multi-content studio Higround unveiled its 2024 production lineup, confirming Jung In Sun and Choi Siwon as the main leads.

Reportedly, Jung In Sun will play the role of Han So Jin while Choi Siwon is set to portray Shim Yeon Woo, a handsome gynecologist who is quick to break up with those who become obsessed with him because he does not believe in marriage nor fate.

Lee Tae Hwan has been reportedly offered the role of Seo Kang Hoon, a firefighter entangled in a love triangle with Han So Jin and Shim Yeon Woo.

Having completed his military service duty on December 26, 2023, if he accepts the offer, this would mark Lee Tae Hwan’s first project post-discharge. Stay tuned for updates!
