Actor Lee Jin-wook and actress Moon Chae-won’s new rom-com “Goodbye Mr. Black” will premiere on March 16, its broadcaster MBC said Monday.

Based on the eponymous comic by Hwang Mi-na, “Goodbye Mr. Black” centers on naval officer Cha Ji-won, played by Lee, who is betrayed by his best friend and exiled to Australia for a crime he didn’t commit. He then enters into a fake marriage arrangement with Swan, played by Moon, to hide his identity and seek revenge.
