Go Hyun Jung to star in second drama of 2024?
On February 19th, Korean news media unveiled exciting news regarding actress Go Hyun Jung‘s potential involvement in the upcoming drama Namib (working title, which could change).
According to reports, Go Hyun Jung’s agency, IOK Company, then confirmed that the popular actress has been approached for a leading role in Namib and is presently evaluating the offer.
According to the same news media, Namib tells the tale of the relationship between the CEO of an entertainment agency and her male trainee.
