 What about Kim Young-dae that Kim Yu-jung earned..'Dear X' line-up completed
Dear X'Kim Yu-jung embraces Kim Young-dae.

The TVing original series Dear X (played by Choi Won-soo, directed by Lee Eung-bok and Park So-hyun) is a brutal and beautiful melodrama thriller about a woman who wears a mask to survive and a man who tries to save him. The destruction period of actor Baek A-jin (Kim Yoo-jung), who went 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, gives the essence of a never-before-seen melodrama.

Above all, expectations are high for the first meeting between legendary hitmaker Lee Eung-bok and TVing, who gave birth to 'Sweet Home'Mr. Sunshine'Guardian'Descendants of the Sun'. Director Park So-hyun, a master of sensory directing, added strength, and writer Choi Jae-won, who won the best prize in the KBS one-act play script contest in 2018, was in charge of writing. As it is based on the popular Naver Webtoon with the same name, which has a thick fandom around the world, attention is focused on how it will be reborn by meeting the production team with sensuous directing and sharp writing skills.

Casting, which will maximize genre pleasure, makes Dear X even longer wait. First, Kim Yoo-jung makes a drastic transformation into a woman wearing a mask 'Baek Ah-jin' to survive. Baek Ah-jin is a top actor in Korea who hides her brutal nature behind her beautiful face. He is the person who climbed the highest place by stacking the wounds of his precarious childhood and wore a mask to survive. As soon as he reaches the top, his specialty is to see through and manipulate the opponent's mind, everything begins to collapse. I look forward to Kim Yoo-jung's unique transformation, which has been loved by the public for her unique visuals and solid acting. Kim Yoo-jung said, `The more I read the original and script, the more I got to know the characters living in the work, the more attractive this work became. I'm looking forward to what kind of drama it will be completed and I'm looking forward to filming it. We will prepare hard and greet you with good works, so please look forward to it."

Kim Young-dae took on the role of Yoon Jun-seo, a man who believed that salvation was love. Yoon Joon-seo, who has been by Baek's side all his life, is his only resting place and fatal Achilles tendon. After walking in any mud for Baek A-jin, he moves to destroy everything he has been protecting for love. It raises questions about what path Yoon Joon-seo's hideously beautiful and bitter love will lead them. Kim Young-dae, who has captured viewers' hearts with his colorful performances, is truly happy to be on "Dear X." I will do my best responsibly and prepare to show good performance. He said with extraordinary determination.

Baek A-jin's blind helper, 'Kim Jae-oh', is played by Kim Do-hoon. Kim Jae-oh is a person who stands by Baek A-jin in a different way than Yoon Jun-seo. Kim Jae-oh survived rough by enduring the abuse of his father who fell into a cult. Finding the reason for life in Baek A-jin, who has the same pain as himself, he is willing to become a shadow of Baek A-jin. Kim Do-hoon, who emerged as a rising star by showing off his strong presence in each film, said, `I'm very excited because the original webtoon and drama script are interesting and interesting. I want to thank director Lee Eung-bok and the production team for trusting me and casting me in such a great work. I will do my best to make a fun drama with good synergy with the production team and actors," he said.

Lee Yeol-eum plays a woman 'Lena' who falls in endless single love. Lena is an idol-turned-actress who rose to the top of the list with her outstanding visuals and luck. He has a strong mentality that never gets discouraged by his optimistic personality even if controversy over his acting skills is tagged. Baek A-jin and Yoon Jun-seo, who shake their minds, appear in front of Lena. The more I love Yun Jun-seo, the more and more Lena realizes that she reaches for things she can't reach. Lee Yeol-eum, who draws Lena's emotional lines in a variety of ways caught up in a terrible love affair, said "I'm happy and excited to have a good work together. Dear X I will work hard to show you better acting and more mature performances through 'Dear X'. Please look forward to it and give it a lot of love.", he said, stimulating expectations.

Meanwhile, the original TVing series 'Dear X' will be released at TVing in 2025.
