Afterward, after nearly two decades, Chansung returned to the small screen with JTBC’s new drama “Bora! Deborah”. He plays Joo Wan, one of the two male leads and is Bora’s fiancé. Joo Wan is a successful businessman who runs a renowned chicken franchise. Joo Wan and Bora were on their way to get married but the marriage got called off at the last minute due to an unexpected change in Bora’s life.  

While Chansung rarely acts in a drama, his unique and versatile expressions were memorable to the audience in a rather lackluster drama.

Taecyeon

Taecyeon gained recognition first as the male lead in “Dream High”. He quickly affirmed himself as a capable actor with firm acting chops. In 2021, the leader of 2PM returned with “Vincenzo” starring Song Joong Ki. Two years later, the actor turned heads with a guest role in Netflix’s spin-off “XO, Kitty”. Taecyeon plays Ocean Park, a busy superstar who has a close relationship with Min Ho’s mother. Taecyeon struck an impression with a dashing and high-class appearance and wowed viewers with his fluent English.

In the future, he is set to return in the drama “My Heart Is Beating” as Woo Hyul, a vampire who dreams of becoming a human. He moves in with a girl named In Hae (Won Ji An) to feel the warmth of humans. The drama will air on KBS2.
