Seo In-guk, the talented South Korean actor and singer, is reportedly being eyed for a leading role in the new drama "Monthly Boyfriend." This exciting project was also previously offered to Jisoo from BLACKPINK, creating a buzz among fans and media alike.
The news regarding Seo In-guk's potential involvement was confirmed by Story J Company, his agency. They stated, "Seo In-guk has received a casting offer for the new drama 'Monthly Boyfriend' and is currently considering it positively."
This confirmation marks a significant step in the development of the drama, which promises to blend romance with a unique premise.
An Innovative Romance: The Concept of "Monthly Boyfriend"
"Monthly Boyfriend" is set in a virtual world where individuals can subscribe to have a boyfriend. Once subscribed, they connect with their virtual partners, leading to a relationship that spills over into real life.
This innovative concept is designed to explore modern love and relationships through the lens of technology, making it relevant in today's digital age.
Directed by Kim Jung-sik
The drama will be helmed by director Kim Jung-sik, known for his work on popular series such as "Work Later, Drink Now" (2021), "Strong Girl Namsoon" (2023), and the currently airing "No Gain No Love" (2024). Jung-sik's previous successes suggest that "Monthly Boyfriend" could be another hit in his growing repertoire.
Interestingly, the offer for "Monthly Boyfriend" comes just weeks after Jisoo was confirmed to be in talks for the same role.
Reports from OSEN indicate that Jisoo is considering her casting offer as well. Her agency, BLISSOO, has confirmed that the idol-turned-actress is still reviewing her options for the project. If both Seo In-guk and Jisoo accept their respective offers, this drama will mark their first collaboration on screen.
