Hong Jong-hyun to Star as Kim Yoo-jung's Fiancé in 'Dear X'

An official from the entertainment industry said in Sports Chosun on the 5th that Hong Jong-hyun will appear in the new original series of TVing Dear X (played by Choi Ji-won, directed by Lee Eung-bok and Park So-hyun). 'Dear X' is a brutal and beautiful melodrama thriller about a woman who wears a mask to survive and a man who tries to save him. It is the period of destruction of actor Baek A-jin (Kim Yoo-jung), who rose from the bottom to the top of his life, and the desperate love of Yoon Joon-seo (Kim Young-dae), who chose hell to protect him.
Hong Jong-hyun plays Moon Do-hyuk, Baek A-jin's fiancé, played by Kim Yoo-jung. It is expected that Hong Jong-hyun's 'cold' will be seen as the biggest barrier to Baek A-jin, who has a sociopathic tendency. Expectations are high as it is expected to show various confrontations to the love line that has a purpose with Kim Yoo-jung.
Hong Jong-hyun has existed in the play as an actor with a wide spectrum from evil to good roles. 'Moon Lovers - Bobo Gyeongsim Ryeo' also shows a sharp confrontation with Lee Jun-gi, who played Wang So while playing Wangyo the Third Crown Prince. Due to the villain's appearance shown at the time, viewers' 'Villain Wind' continued.
As a result, I wonder what kind of chemistry Hong Jong-hyun will show with Kim Yoo-jung, who showed clear chemistry with actresses until recently, following Lee Se-young of 「Things After Love」 and Moon Ga-young of 「That's Black Yeol-ryong」. In particular, Hong Jong-hyun made a special appearance on 'That's a Black Salt Dragon', which aired on the 4th, and showed a short but intense performance. After appearing as Moon Ga-young's blind date man, he even drew viewers' expectations with his extraordinary chemistry. Amid this expectation, attention is focused on what kind of chemistry Hong Jong-hyun will show with Kim Yoo-jung.
"Dear X" is a new film directed by Lee Eung-bok, who created "Sweet Home" "Mr. Sunshine"Guardian"Descendants of the Sun", and will be released on TVing this year.
