Overview
- Multiple entertainment outlets report that Hwang Minhyun has been cast as the male lead in Iseop's Romance and is preparing for the role, but those reports remain unconfirmed.
- Ace Factory, the production company, said that no casting has been finalized and PLEDIS Entertainment described the project as one of several offers to Hwang.
- Lee Jong Suk and Choi Yoon Ji were previously attached to the two leads but withdrew after production and filming schedule adjustments made coordination difficult.
- The reporting relies on industry sources and entertainment sites with varying sourcing, so the drama’s casting status is unsettled until formal announcements arrive.
- Iseop's Romance is a popular web novel and webtoon adaptation about a third-generation chaebol and a capable colleague, a premise that boosts pre-release interest and highlights how Hwang’s growing acting résumé could affect audience expectations.
