Lee Yi Kyung, iKON’s Junhoe, Jo Soo Min, and Ji Yi Soo may be starring in a new drama together!
Earlier on January 8, iMBC reported that Lee Yi Kyung and Junhoe are in talks to star in Channel A’s upcoming drama “Marry YOU” (literal title). In response to the reports, Lee Yi Kyung’s agency SANGYOUNG ENT and Junhoe’s agency 145 Entertainment similarly shared that the actors are reviewing their offers to star in “Marry YOU.”
iMBC further reported on January 10 that Jo Soo Min and Ji Yi Soo will also be joining the cast.
“Marry YOU” is a matchmaking romance story about Bong Chul Hee, an island bachelor who meets all the requirements to avoid marriage. The drama depicts the struggle that unfolds as civil servant Jung Ha Na, who doesn’t believe in marriage, is dispatched to a “Marriage Encouragement” team that was formed to send Bong Chul Hee off to marriage.
Lee Yi Kyung is in talks to play the role of Chief Bong Chul Hee, who is perfectly capable of doing everything. Currently impressing on “How Do You Play?” and his new tvN drama “Marry My Husband,” viewers are already excited for Lee Yi Kyung’s next project.
Junhoe, who recently starred in “Twinkling Watermelon,” is in talks to play Choi Ki Joon, the team leader of the Marriage Encouragement team that Jung Ha Na becomes a member of. He’s a flawless character who isn’t lacking in any aspect including career, personality, and looks.
Furthermore, according to the reports, Jo Soo Min will be playing Jung Ha Na, who gets deeply intertwined with Bong Chul Hee, and Ji Yi Soo will reportedly play Oh In Ah, who is the love interest of many.
