Actor Yeo Jin-goo will feature in the upcoming KBS2 drama “Orange Marmalade,” his agency Janus Entertainment said on Wednesday.

Yeo is to play Jung Jae-min, a handsome Mr. Perfect who is good at everything.

The drama, which will be aired in May, is based on a popular webtoon of the same name that was serialized on Naver.com in 2011.

Set in a high school in Korea, the story is about romance between a female student who hides her vampire identity and a popular male student.

Yeo made a name by taking on the role of Kim Soo-hyun in the hit drama “Moon Embracing the Sun” and starring in films like “Hwayi” and “Shoot My Heart.”

“Orange Marmalade” is drawing the attention of TV drama buffs as it will mark the budding actor’s comeback to the screen.
