Actor Na In-woo has officially been cast as the male lead in the upcoming Netflix original drama 1/24 Romance, according to MyDaily on November 18.
In the series, Na In-woo will portray Yoo Do-jin, a genius tennis player with an unprecedented record in Korean sports history. The character is designed as a “divine mistake,” possessing all strengths at the expense of facing personal trials, including losing the ones he loves.
Previously, Na In-woo was classified as Grade 4 for military service and remained on standby for social service duties. However, his enlistment was delayed for three years, and he ultimately received exemption in December of last year. His most recent project was MBC’s Motel California.
1/24 Romance centers on a unique romantic-comedy premise: a man running from his past trauma and a woman stuck in her memories randomly swap souls for one hour each day. Despite their contrasting personalities, they gradually fall in love. The female lead will be played by Shin Hye-sun.
The drama is adapted from the Kakao Webtoon of the same name. The script is written by Han Seol-hee and Hong Bo-hee, while Kim Sang-hyup known for Extraordinary You, True Beauty, and Melancholia will direct. Netflix will handle global distribution.
This marks another high-profile role for Na In-woo, whose growing portfolio continues to attract attention both domestically and internationally.
