'Unfriend' Starring Kim Seon-ho and Park Gyu-young Set to Stream on Tving

The upcoming drama 'Unfriend' (언프렌드), featuring actors Kim Seon-ho (김선호) and Park Gyu-young (박규영) in leading roles, is preparing for its release on Tving. According to reports from OSEN on March 4, the series, which is produced as an OTT offering, is currently in discussions regarding its scheduling on the platform. A representative from 'Unfriend' stated, 'Nothing has been confirmed yet; we are still in internal discussions.'

Based on the novel 'Mongnae-in' by Hong Kong author Chan Ho-kei (찬호께이), 'Unfriend' follows an older sister who struggles to accept her younger sibling's tragic death, leading her to investigate the circumstances surrounding it and encounter a mysterious man. Initially titled after the original novel, the series was ultimately renamed 'Unfriend.'

Produced by Yong Film (용필름), the drama has generated excitement even before its release, thanks to the collaboration of acclaimed directors Kim Jee-woon (김지운), known for films like 'I Saw the Devil' (악마를 보았다) and 'The Age of Shadows' (밀정), and Park Bo-ram (박보람), who directed SBS's 'Those Who Read the Minds of Evil' (악의 마음을 읽는 자들).

Kim Seon-ho, who has showcased his versatility in projects like tvN's 'Start-Up' (스타트업) and 'Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha' (갯마을 차차차), takes on the male lead, while Park Gyu-young, recognized for her roles in 'It's Okay to Not Be Okay' (사이코지만 괜찮아) and 'Sweet Home' (스위트홈), plays the female lead, promising great chemistry between the two.

The cast also includes talented actors Lee Hong-nae (이홍내), Jin Ho-eun (진호은), and Lee So-i (이소이), further raising anticipation for the series. Filming for 'Unfriend' was completed in November 2023, and it is set to consist of six episodes, soon to be available for viewers.
