K-pop boy group ASTRO's member/actor Cha Eun-woo is ready to become the prince of Joseon Dynasty for his upcoming drama.
According to Cha Eun-woo's management agency Fantagio on March 4, Cha Eun-woo has accepted the offer to join MBC's upcoming drama 'New Historian Goo Hae-ryeong' (literal translation).
In the drama, Cha Eun-woo will take on the role of 'Yi Rim', a crown prince who lives a double life as a lonely prince who has never dated anyone and a popular romance novelist.
While juggling both, 'Yi Rim' meets a rookie historian 'Goo Hae-ryeong' (actress Shin Sae Kyeong) and slowly learns about love and the world outside the palace.
In regard to the drama, Cha Eun-woo said through his agency, "The script was very intriguing, and I found the topic of female historians refreshing."
He added, "On top of that, my character 'Yi Rim' flutters my heart. I would like to portray the growth of 'Yi Rim' who was destined to be lonely and is clumsy at everything he does."
Meanwhile, 'New Historian Goo Hae-ryeong' is slated to air in July this year.
