On July 2, 2024, Star News reported that Nam Koong-min has reportedly been cast for the upcoming drama, Our Film. After the news surfaced online, the actor's agency 935 Entertainment announced to OSEN on July 2 that he is "positively considering" starring in the title.

"Namgoong Min is positively considering appearing in the new tvN drama 'Our Film,'" their statement said.

Tentatively titled Our Film, the title narrates the story of a terminally sick actor and a film director who is dealing with the sophomore jinx. The title is produced by Beyond J and it is helmed by Lee Jung-heum, who is known for their work in Inspector Koo.


What role will Nam Koong-min play in Our Film?

If he accepts the offer, Nam Koong-min will reportedly take on the lead role of Lee Je-ha in Our Film. The forthcoming melodrama focuses on the main character, who is a film director.

In the title, Lee Je-ha sets out to capture the story of a sick patient who is on his deathbed. To make it more authentic, he decides to star a terminally ill patient as the lead actor.

With a screenplay he has written himself, Lee Je-ha makes his debut in the commercial film business and earns heaps of success. He soon becomes known as "Lee Je-ha of the Genre," winning several awards at film festivals. However, as luck would have it, he now leads a cliched, lonely life without any future.
