"Dear Hongrang" is a mystery romance historical drama based on a novel of the same name.

It will contain Jae-i's story of pursuing the truth surrounding Dear Hongrang, who went missing and returned as a child.

Lee Jae-wook was offered the role of Dear Hongrang, a son born to the wife of Jung-sil of Danju in the upper part of the Joseon Dynasty. He grew up as the most precious son but disappeared at a young age, and he suddenly returns one day after more than a decade.

Jo Bo-ah is Dear Hongrang's loving half-sister and plays the role of Jae-i, a sister who constantly doubts Dear Hongrang's identity.
