tvN’s latest drama Link: Eat and Love, So I Can Kill You is courting Yeo Jin-gu (Beyond Evil) to be its lead. According to his agency, he’s received the script and is currently reviewing the offer.
Link is a fantasy-mystery melodrama about a guy who can suddenly feel the emotions of one girl: her sadness, her happiness, and her pain. Yeo Jin-gu has been offered the role of the main lead — a man who becomes the sous-chef of a restaurant near the village where his twin sister disappeared twenty years ago.
Previously, it was reported that Moon Ga-young (True Beauty) was also considering the script. I’ve really enjoyed some of her work like True Beauty and Live Up to Your Name, so I’d be curious to see her chemistry with Yeo Jin-gu, whose acting is second to none.
Directed by PD Noh Sang-hoon and written by Kwon Ki-young, Link will likely air sometime next year.
