Seo’s management agency Fantagio announced Wednesday that the actor will take on the role of male lead Han Woo-jin.
The webcomic, which ran from 2014 to 2016, was a major hit for Lezhin Comics, a popular webtoon platform in Korea, and has amassed over 130 million views. The story is also to be made into a film.

Webtoon-based drama series are not new to Seo, who starred in tvN‘s “Cheese in the Trap,” also based on a webtoon.

“Something About Us” is to air sometime this year.
