Two big stars, Lee Jung Jae from Squid Game and Lim Ji Yeon from The Glory, will star in the highly anticipated romantic comedy drama, "Nice to Not Meet You."
According to PINKVILLA, the drama will premiere on Prime Video, ready to greet audiences in over 240 countries.
"Nice to Not Meet You" marks Lee Jung Jae's return to the small screen after six years.
This is also his first project since becoming a household name thanks to his role in the "Squid Game" series. Many are curious about what kind of character he will play.
In this drama, Lee Jung Jae will play Im Hyun Joon, a seasoned actor who yearns for a romantic role to spice up his career. However, he consistently lands cliché roles, such as detectives and investigators.
Meanwhile, Lim Ji Yeon will play Wi Jung Shin, an award-winning political journalist. Unfortunately, his career is derailed after he is involved in a corruption scandal. As a result, he is transferred to the entertainment department.
This is where their story begins. Im Hyun Joon and Wi Jung Shin will meet, and an unexpected romance will unfold.
In addition to Lee Jung Jae and Lim Ji Yeon, according to PINKVILLA, this drama also features the presence of other top actors, such as Kim Ji Hoon and Seo Ji Hye.
Kim Ji Hoon will play Lee Jae Hyung, a former baseball player who now owns a sports magazine. He only has one woman in his heart until he meets Wi Jung Shin.
Seo Ji Hye will also play Yoon Hwa Young, the entertainment editor-in-chief of the same magazine. She is also Lee Jae Hyung's ex-girlfriend. Their presence will certainly add spice to the drama's conflict.
The supporting cast is equally compelling. They include Oh Yeon Seo, Choi Gwi Hwa, Jeon Seong Woo, Kim Jae Chul, Na Young Hee, Jun Soo Kyung, Kim Hyun Jin, Jin Ho Eun, Kim Bup Rae, and Jo Hee Bong.
The drama, originally known as Petty Love, is scheduled to air in the second half of 2025. With an incredible cast and unique storyline, Nice to Not Meet You is ready to be a must-see. /Source: PINKVILLA
