Kim Yoo-jung, Kim Young-dae, and Kim Do-hoon's 'Dear X' to Premiere on Tving in November

The Tving original series 〈Dear X〉 has announced the birth of a cruel and dazzling destruction melodrama suspense.

The Tving original series 〈Dear X〉 (directed by Lee Eung-bok and Park So-hyun, written by Choi Ja-won, planned by Studio Dragon, produced by Monster Union and Siu Company, provided by Tving, based on the Naver webtoon 'Dear X' [author Ban Ji-woon]) depicts the story of a woman, Baek Ah-jin (played by Kim Yoo-jung), who wears a mask to escape from hell and rise to the highest place, and the X's who were cruelly trampled by her. It is the tale of the destruction of actress Baek Ah-jin, who rises from the bottom of life to the top, and the desperate love of Yoon Jun-seo (played by Kim Young-dae), who chose hell to protect her, presenting a melodrama suspense like never seen before.

Above all, there is great anticipation for the first meeting between legendary hitmaker director Lee Eung-bok, who created 'Sweet Home', 'Mr. Sunshine', 'Goblin', and 'Descendants of the Sun', and Tving. Additionally, the talented director Park So-hyun adds strength, and the writer Choi Ja-won, who won the Best Script Award at the 2018 KBS Short Drama Script Contest, is in charge of the script. As the original webtoon of the same name has a strong global fandom, it has already generated buzz before its release. The meeting of Kim Yoo-jung, Kim Young-dae, Kim Do-hoon, and Lee Yeol-eum, who will maximize the genre's thrill, excites drama fans.

The script reading scene, released alongside the confirmation of the November premiere, further heats up expectations. On this day, director Lee Eung-bok, director Park So-hyun, and writer Choi Ja-won, along with Kim Yoo-jung, Kim Young-dae, and Kim Do-hoon, gathered in one place to deliver powerful performances.

First, Kim Yoo-jung made a bold transformation as 'Baek Ah-jin', who wears a mask to survive. Baek Ah-jin is a top actress who has climbed to the highest place by stepping on layers of childhood wounds, a character who achieves her desires with insight that penetrates the hearts of others. Kim Yoo-jung overwhelmed the script reading scene with her captivating performance, portraying Baek Ah-jin's cruel true nature hidden behind her beautiful face.

Yoon Jun-seo, who believes he can save Baek Ah-jin with his love, is played by Kim Young-dae. Yoon Jun-seo, who has stayed by Baek Ah-jin's side for a lifetime, is both her only refuge and her fatal Achilles' heel. He would walk through any mire for Baek Ah-jin, but he is a character who collapses everything he has protected for love. Kim Young-dae's intense portrayal of Yoon Jun-seo's desperate love raises expectations for a career-defining role.

Kim Do-hoon plays 'Kim Jae-oh', whose purpose in life changes with a single word from Baek Ah-jin. Having endured his father's abuse since childhood and surviving roughly, Kim Jae-oh finds his reason for living in Baek Ah-jin, who shares the same pain, willingly becoming her shadow. Kim Do-hoon's performance, which amplifies the charm of the precarious man Kim Jae-oh, who protects Baek Ah-jin in a different way from Yoon Jun-seo, adds to the anticipation.

Meanwhile, the Tving original series 〈Dear X〉 will premiere on Tving in November.
