About the drama: Yook Sungjae has been cast as Hong Jo, the cat that sometimes becomes a man. He wants to become human for his owner, and in order to stay by her side, he starts living a double life.

Finally! This is such a beautiful Christmas gift for us fans of Yook Sungjae (the actor). I've been waiting for him to take on a new drama as we always hear news of him getting lots of offers/scripts but usually turns them down. He did say he wanted to focus on BTOB more after completing "Goblin" and its totally understandable since the other members are to enlist. It was best to focus on BTOB that time. Now that 3 members will be enlisting, it's a good time to work on solo projects. And I wonder if Sungjae auditioned Sami for the cat role lmao

They haven't mentioned who the female lead is. Can't wait for 2019!

Hope the writer took the reactions to introverted boss to heart and writes a less maniac female character this time!! I liked MnD a lot and Jangmi was already right at the line to it, when they got it into their head to put it up 5 notches for IB's female lead.

(P.S. i miss Han Groo in dramaland)

cat man getting a cat role, that's awesome. I think he has had quite a busy year with solo stuff though, especially with the Master in the House show.

also hoping for variety of idols and their cats. somebody please pick up that idea

I misread the show name as 'Man Who Makes Bread'. I was like 'Yes Bish. Make that money!'

So excited. I'm ready for an actor Sungjae comeback (hopefully with a Sami cameo).

The pet store at the mall was selling snow bengals last month. They were so so so cute.
