[Dispatch=Reporter Lee Ah-jin] Actors Lee Hye-ri and Na In-woo will team up as a fake married couple.
ENA's new Monday-Tuesday drama "She Requires Caution" (working title, screenplay by Kim Ryu-hyun, directed by Yoo Sun-dong) announced the casting of Lee Hye-ri and Na In-woo on the 12th.
"She Requires Caution" is an action-romance drama. It is based on the Japanese NTV drama "The Housewife Requires Caution." It tells the story of a spy wife disguised as a housewife and her husband, a former National Intelligence Service agent who temporarily protects her.
Lee Hye-ri plays ace spy "Ja-young." Ja-young is a master of disguise who operates under the code name "J-Nine." However, one day she becomes falsely accused and goes on the run. To evade pursuit, she disguises herself as a novice housewife.
Na In-woo takes on the role of veterinarian "Gun-woo." He is a popular figure in the neighborhood for his friendly nature and excellent skills. He has a twist to his past as a former National Intelligence Service agent.
The casting hints at acting transformations from both actors. In particular, Lee Hye-ri said, "Though it is one character, I am excited to be able to show various sides as if I am doing multiple roles. I am making efforts to transform into a perfect elite spy."
Hidden backstories are also a point of interest. Na In-woo said, "Gun-woo's past and his twist side came across as entertaining," and added, "It is a work where you can feel various fun and colors, so I hope you look forward to it."
Meanwhile, "She Requires Caution" is set to air in the first half of next year.
