Get ready for a highly anticipated pairing! Exciting news reveals that the charming actress Han So Hee is currently considering a lead role alongside actor Nam Joo Hyuk in the upcoming fantasy-romance series “Heartbeat.”
On July 23, 9ato Entertainment, Han So Hee’s agency, responded to media reports regarding her casting by stating, “It is true that Han So Hee has received an offer to star in the drama ‘Heartbeat,’ and she is currently reviewing it positively.”
“Heartbeat” is a fantasy-romance drama centered around the universally cherished concept of “eternal first love.” The story delivers a deeply touching and heart-fluttering romance when a man who looks strikingly identical to a deceased “first love” suddenly appears. The series follows the intriguing relationship between a woman with the special ability to see the “past” and a man who is forced to “conceal his past.” Their encounter plunges them into a series of unexpected events.
Previously, it was officially confirmed that Nam Joo Hyuk will play the male lead, Cha Shin Jo—a well-rounded man who looks identical to the deceased first love, but lives his life hiding a secret past. If Han So Hee accepts the offer, this will mark the very first collaboration between the two stars, promising unforgettable romantic chemistry.
Adding to the excitement, the project is penned by hit screenwriter Lee Shi Eun, the mastermind behind megahit romantic dramas such as True Beauty and the global phenomenon Lovely Runner. Fans are already setting high expectations for the perfect blend of emotion, warmth, and romantic charm.
How touching will the story of a woman who sees the past and a man who hides it turn out to be? Let’s root for Han So Hee to officially confirm her role in this exciting new series!
