After ‘Vincenzo,’ Taecyeon to star in new historical drama


Have you been missing Jang Jun Woo of “Vincenzo”?

According to a Soompi report, Ok Taecyeon has been confirmed to headline a new historical comedy investigation drama on tvN called “The Secret Royal Inspector and Jo Yi” (literal title).

Taecyeon will star opposite Kim Hye Yoon, who is known for her roles on “Sky Castle” and “Extraordinary You.”

The report said Taecyeon would play a secret royal inspector named Ra Yi Eon, while Hye Yoon would be a rather unconventional woman in the Joseon era named Kim Jo Yi.

“Together, the unmotivated secret royal inspector Ra Yi Yeon and the reckless divorced woman Kim Jo Yi will embark on a journey to investigate and defeat corrupt politicians,” the report said.

Taecyeon recently wowed audiences with his acting skills as Jang Jun Woo or Jang Han Seok, the diabolical villain in the Netflix smash hit “Vincenzo,” which also starred Song Joong Ki.

The singer, rapper, dancer, and actor is a member of the K-pop group 2PM who debuted under JYP Entertainment in 2008. – Margaret Claire Layug/RC, GMA News
