The new television series starring Song Hye-kyo and Park Bo-gum is set to go on air on tvN in November, the series' production company said Monday. The drama is scheduled for the 9:30 p.m Wednesday-Thursday slot on the cable channel.

The sad romance series revolves around a daughter of a high-powered politician married to a man from a chaebol family, played by the 36-year-old Song, and an ordinary young man, played by the 25-year-old Park. It is Song's first TV show role since the 2016 hit "Descendants of the Sun." She married her co-star from the series, Song Joong-ki, in 2017. It is Park's first drama since "Love in the Moonlight" in 2016.

The drama is produced by Bon Factory, which has made such hit series as "What's Wrong With Secretary Kim," "She Was Pretty" and "Master's Sun."

Is it just me or is it weird that Song Joong Ki and Song Hye Kyo are both working with people they know for their next drama? Seems so coincidental. Like they each had a stipulation for their next project -- the spouse has to approve of the co-star lol.

I think so too!, but is not weird seeing you wife kiss your friend?

LOL, right? I guess they'd rather it be people they know who don't pose a risk to each other? IDK! Hahah

I just can't get behind this pairing at all, the age gap feels huge. I'm bummed because I like PBG as an actor and was excited for him to be in a drama again.
