NCT’s Jaehyun and actor Lee Chae Min are reportedly in discussions to headline a forthcoming drama named ‘I Trust You’.
According to a source, the storyline focuses on a school bully and their victim who find themselves sharing a living space.
Lee Chae Min has reportedly been offered the role of Yang Seo Joon, a character described as hailing from a wealthy family, possessing striking good looks, and harboring a strategic mind. Seo Joon’s lack of empathy leads him to target Seo Il Nam, portrayed by Jaehyun, who becomes his main victim in the drama.
Jaehyun’s character, Seo Il Nam, in ‘I Trust You’, is depicted as a victim of school bullying originating from an economically disadvantaged background. Throughout the drama, Seo Il Nam embarks on a journey to confront his fears and assert himself against his tormentors.
The production of ‘I Trust You’ is scheduled to commence filming in the first half of this year.
