Nam Goong Min cast as lead in new drama!

Actor Nam Goong Min will be leading a new drama!  According to the production crew of TV Chosun's new drama, 'Only You,' he has been cast as the male protagonist.

A rep stated on December 15, "Nam Goong Min is confirmed to appear as the lead in 'Only You.'"  The drama centers on a top star who doesn't believe in love, a woman who has been betrayed in love, a man who dreams of becoming a star, and the meeting of all three for a refreshing, sweet human love story!  Finally, Nam Goong Min is going to stray from the dark, angsty roles so he can have some fun with his life and quell those anger management problems...

Nam Goong Min will be playing Yeon Woo, the first successor in line for a chaebol group who is also a top star.  Outwardly, he throws out invectives, seems picky, tough to please, and self-centered, but inwardly, is more affectionate than anybody else!

The drama will likely air in the first half of next year.
