their mother-son chemistry. Other confirmed cast members include Yoo Jun Sang,
Choi Soo Young , and Jeon Sung Woo.

Revenge of the Short Legged’ before his debut with WINNER. He continued to build
his filmography with notable roles in dramas such as tvN’s ‘Prison Playbook’,
MBC’s ‘Kairos’, and tvN’s ‘Voice 4’. His most recent appearance was in the 2022
KBS 2TV ‘Drama Special – Season of Panties’.

This upcoming role marks Kang Seungyoon’s return to the small screen after four
years and his first venture into a weekend drama, generating considerable
excitement among fans.
