Yoo Joon Sang and Gong Seung Yeon will be starring in a new drama together!
Based on a popular Japanese novel of the same name, “I Will Travel For You” (literal title) will depict the story of Kang Yeo Reum, a former idol who has never been a center in her life, and her journey to find true success and meaning of life as a travel reporter who goes to trips on behalf of others. The drama will capture beautiful sceneries of various travel destinations and provide heart-warming stories and healing for viewers.
Previously in March, Gong Seung Yeon was confirmed to play the role of the female lead Kang Yeo Reum, a former girl group member who now has been a reporter for a travel program called “One Day Travel” for five years. Despite being known as the icon of positivity and optimism at work, Kang Yeo Reum hides anxiety about the future behind her happy façade.
Yoo Joon Sang will take on the role of Oh Sang Sik, the CEO of Ogu Entertainment, the agency that Kang Yeo Reum is signed to. Born as the youngest son of a family of doctors, Oh Sang Sik went through a lot of ups and downs in his life from being a boxer to a CEO of an entertainment company. Feeling responsible for bringing Yeo Reum into the entertainment industry, Sang Sik maintains a close relationship with her for over 15 years.
The production team remarked, “Yoo Joon Sang’s presence itself already feels reassuring. Please look forward to not only the charms of character Oh Sang Sik that Yoo Joon Sang will portray but also the synergy that he will create while working with Gong Seung Yeon. Please show lots of anticipation and interest as to what kind of warm story the two actors will showcase with the theme of traveling.”
Filming for “I Will Travel For You” has kicked off while the broadcast schedule is currently in discussion. Stay tuned for more updates!
