Upcoming tvN drama That Psychometric Guy will feature Got7’s very own Jinyoung (School of Magic, Legend of the Blue Sea). He’ll be playing a clumsy wielder of psychometric abilities. He can figure out people’s deepest secrets by just touching them. Despite having an A+ visual appearance and his secret-reading supernatural ability, he’s slow on the uptake when it comes to sensitive situations.
He dreams to serve justice to bad guys by finding them and solving crimes. But he still can’t control his abilities, and often ends up in trouble himself.
The drama will be about him and a girl who is willing to die to keep her darkest secret scars hidden. Known as a “perfect girl,” she hides her past under a mask of perfection. Bound together in a destined or cursed fate, these two begin to solve cases together, and a sweet romance is expected to bloom between them
I was looking over Jinyoung’s filmography, and got confused with the B1A4 Jinyoung. Friendly public service announcement: Got7’s Jinyoung did NOT star in Moonlight Drawn By Clouds. However, he did star as the youth version of Joo Jin-mo in Beloved Eun-dong, where he acted his pants off as a lovable, caring neighborhood oppa.
Directed by Kim Byung-soo (Bride of the Water God 2017, Bubblegum) and written by Yang Jin-ah (Vampire Prosecutor), tvN’s That Psychometric Guy is slated to air in the first half of next year.
