Actor Hwang In Youp and actress Hyeri have officially been confirmed as the main leads of the new romantic drama To You (working title). The production is penned by screenwriter Jung Eun Bi, who previously worked on major hits such as Goblin and Doom at Your Service.
Set to premiere in 2026, the drama promises to move viewers as it explores the reunion of two young people who once shared an unfinished love and now have the chance to rewrite it.
The Story of To You
The drama revolves around Woo Soo Bin (played by Hwang In Youp), a brilliant film director who gained international recognition after winning prestigious festival awards. After achieving success abroad, he returns to South Korea and reunites with Joo Yi Jae (Hyeri), his former love and partner in dreams.
While Woo Soo Bin views love as the ultimate fulfillment of his life, Yi Jae—now a talented and determined reporter—sees it as a tragedy marked by regrets from the past. As they revisit an unfinished film, the two are forced to confront memories, resentments, and perhaps, a new chance at love.
Hwang In Youp’s Role
Known for his versatility in dramas such as True Beauty and Why Her, Hwang In Youp will take on the role of the brilliant filmmaker Woo Soo Bin. The character broke free from his family’s limitations and built a solid career in cinema, becoming one of South Korea’s most promising directors.
The actor shared his excitement about the new challenge:
“I’m happy and excited to show a new side of myself through the role of Woo Soo Bin. I hope the audience enjoys the chemistry between Hyeri and me, and we are working hard to deliver a great production.”
Hyeri in an Emotional Role
Hyeri will portray Joo Yi Jae, a dedicated reporter who, despite her passion and talent, is consumed by regrets. She carved out a place in journalism with her wit and charm but lives with a hidden emptiness. The reunion with Woo Soo Bin brings back not only memories but also an old dream she had tried to forget.
About the role, Hyeri commented:
“I believe I’ll be able to show many different sides of myself as Joo Yi Jae. I’m preparing with great excitement, so please look forward to it.”
Anticipation for the Premiere
With its compelling script, talented cast, and direction by Yoo Seon Dong, To You is already drawing attention even before its premiere. The drama is set to be one of the most highly anticipated productions of 2026, blending romance, emotion, and reflections on dreams and the choices of adulthood.
Fans of Hwang In Youp and Hyeri can already prepare for this new love story that promises to capture hearts.
