On March 28th, an official from Jeon Ji-Hyun's agency told News 1, "Jeon Ji-Hyun received an offer to take the lead female role in an upcoming K-drama 'The North Star' (tentative title) and is reviewing it positively."
According to rumors, actor Gang Dong-Won is also positively reviewing a lead role in the drama. Fans are ecstatic as they wait for the confirmation of a possible combination.
'The North Star' is written by Jung Seo-Kyoung who wrote the plot synopsis for ‘Little Women’ last year. Director Kim Hee-Won will continue to work hand in hand with Jung to express a story centered around spies who have lost their identity.
If Jeon Ji-Hyun does decide to take up her role in ‘The North Star’, it will be a return to screens in two years after her role in ‘Jirisan’ in 2021. For Gang Dong-Won, it will be a return to drama screens in nineteen years since ‘Magic’, which aired in 2004.
