🛍️ K3’s Favorite Things Gift List: Monday’s Newsletter P.S. Section 

✅ YOO TEO has been confirmed for the Netflix Series “The Recruit” Season 2 as a Series Regular. His character is described as ‘a highly skilled South Korean NIS agent with a subversive sense of humor’. 

So, yeah. ALL. IN.

[Remember our reaction when we first noticed him as THE Neanthal Ragaz “Arthdal Chronicles Part 1”?! 😈]

✅ SEO JI HYE has been officially added to the JTBC’s 2024 “Prefabricated Family” (“Family By Choice”) cast with HWANG IN YOUP, JUNG CHAE YEON and BAE HYUN SUNG. She’ll be playing Jung Chae Yeon’s best friend and potential love interest for Bae Hyun Sung.

🧐 MUN KA YOUNG & KOO KYO HWAN are both in talks to lead the Korean remake of the popular bittersweet Chinese film “Us And Them”. I love this paring but not sure I’m ready for another bittersweet ending (MoonInTheDay4Evah 🫰)

🧐 ROWOON & PARK SEO HAM are both reviewing offers from the writer of “All Of Us Are Dead”, currently titled “Takryu”. Park Seo Ham has just returned from his military service and many of us are hoping for a “Semantic Error” Season 2. Plus Rowoon should be going into the military soon (he’ll be 28 in August) so the timing on this one could be a factor.

🧐 KIM JAE YOUNG is reviewing an offer to possibly join PARK SHIN HYE in the 2024 KDrama “The Judge From Hell”.

🗣️ JU JI HOON fresh off his Actor of the Year Award at the 28th Consumer Rights Day Awards, the reports are that he is set to lead the latest from “Miss Baek” Director LEE JI WON, “Climax”. No details on the project yet, but it will be great to see Ju Ji Hoon back in KDramaland.

🗣️ JEON SEOK HO (aka Ju Ji Hoon BFF) is rumored to be joining the ever-growing Dude Fest that is “Squid Game 2”. No word on what devious things his character will be up to but we expect him to be entertaining as always!

🗣️ GO MIN SI reported to be leading, actress/director CHO EUN JI’s (who I LOVED in “Strangers Again”) latest film “I Will Cross The Time And Come To You”, a fantasy drama based on a novel of the same name. Love everything about this.

🗣️ JEON DO YEON is the latest rumored to be attached to “The Price of Confession”. Passed on by SONG HYE KYO, HAN SO HEE and director SHIM NA YEON before it landed on her desk, I’m really curious how this plays out.
