As a result of My Daily coverage on the 25th, Heo Nam-jun is positively considering appearing in SBS' new drama "Brave New World".

"Brave New World" is a romantic comedy-drama that depicts war-like love between Shin Seo-ri, a phenomenal Joseon evil girl, and Cha Se-gye, a Korean evil tycoon. It is directed by Han Tae-seob, who co-directed "Stove League" and "Cheer Up".

Heo Nam-jun is said to have been offered the role of Cha Se-gye, a chaebol in the drama. Lim Ji-yeon has already decided to appear as a female protagonist. Expectations are high on what kind of chemistry the two people will show in "Brave New World".

Since his debut with a 2019 film, Heo Nam-jun has appeared on JTBC's "Snowdrop", KBS's "The Matchmakers", Netflix's "Sweet Home 2", Disney+ "The Impossible Heir", ENA's "Your Honor", MBC's "When the Phone Rings" and tvN's "When the Stars Gossip".

In "Your Honor - 2024", he played Kim Sang-hyeok, the son of Kim Kang-heon (Kim Myung-min), and received favorable reviews. He has been selected as the main character in JTBC's new drama "A Hundred Memories" and is currently filming the drama.

Meanwhile, "Brave New World" will begin filming in the second half of the year and will premiere in the first half of next year.
