Heads up, K-drama fans! 

There's a new show that you can add to your watchlist as well-loved South Korean actress Park Bo-young and GOT7's Jinyoung are set to star in a new TVN drama. 

Titled Unknown Seoul, the romantic drama follows the story of twin sisters "who lead completely different lives" after swapping identities through a web of lies. They embark on a journey to discover their identity, true love, and the meaning of life. 

According to Korean entertainment website Soompi, the drama is penned by writer Lee Kang, who also wrote the 2021 heart-rending romance Youth of May.

Meanwhile, it will be directed by Park Shin Woo, who is known for his work on Don’t Dare to Dream, Encounter, It’s Okay to Not Be Okay, and the upcoming romance drama Ask the Stars starring Gong Hyo-jin and Lee Min-ho.

This is the first time Park has had a dual role since her debut. She will play identical but different twin sisters Yoo Mi Ji and Yoo Mi Rae.

Jinyoung, on the other hand, will play Lee Ho Soo, "a tall and handsome lawyer at a major law firm with a seemingly indifferent yet relaxed demeanor."

The drama is set to premiere in the first half of 2025. Further details, such as the other cast members and release date, have yet to be announced. 

Park Bo-young is best known for her leading roles in various Korean films, including Scandal Makers, A Werewolf Boy, and On Your Wedding Day, and Korean television series such as Oh My Ghost, Strong Girl Bong-soon, Abyss, Doom at Your Service, and Daily Dose of Sunshine.

Park Jin-young, commonly known as Jinyoung, is a member of the hit K-pop boy band GOT7. He is also an actor known for his roles in hit K-drama series and films, including The Devil Judge, Yumi's Cells, He Is Psychometric, Christmas Carol, and When My Love Blooms
