Meanwhile, Lee Jeong-eun is also scheduled to air the first episode of JTBC's new drama 'The Girl Who Is Different from Day and Night' next month. 'The Girl Who Is Different by Day and Night' is an unusual romantic comedy drama about a job seeker who is suddenly trapped in old age time and a talented prosecutor who is caught up in her all day and night. Lee Jeong-eun works with Jeong Eun-ji and Choi Jin-hyuk.

The Disney+ original series 'Gangnam B-Side' starring Jo Woo-jin has been confirmed to be released in the second half of 2024. 'Gangnam Be-Side' is a crime drama in which a demoted elite detective, a rank prosecutor with no ties, and a mysterious broker work together to chase the dark cartel that has taken over the glamorous nights of Gangnam, and reunite three years after the 2021 film 'Send Restrictions'. Expectations are high that Jo Woo-jin and Ji Chang-wook will once again bring about sparkling acting synergy and tell a powerful story.
