More about Choi Woo-shik and Park Bo-young's latest works
Choi Woo-shik was currently seen in another Netflix project, A Killer Paradox, released on February 9, 2024. He plays the role of a college student, Lee Tang, who kills a stranger but realizes that his time is running out. The series centers on the wayward ways of Woo-shik's character, a lucky serial killer who questions the morality of his unintentional murder spree.
His foil, a homicide investigator determined to uncover the truth, follows Tang around while he attempts to avoid being suspected. The thrilling series by Lee Chang-hee stars Baeksang Arts Awards nominee Son Suk-ku as the detective, who was also seen in My Liberation Notes.
Park Bo-young was last seen in the 2023 drama Daily Dose of Sunshine, which follows Da-eun, her patients, and her coworkers as they explore acute mental illness with empathy and humor.
Although none of her new coworkers are certain why Da-eun (Park Bo-young) was moved from internal medicine to serve as a nurse in the hospital's mental unit, her uncommon receptivity to grasping the world from her patients' perspectives is regarded as remarkable. The Netflix drama was helmed by Lee Nam-kyu and directed by Lee J.Q.
Netflix has not confirmed the release date of its upcoming drama Melo Movie.
