Lee Jun-young's agency announced on Thursday that he has been offered a role in the JTBC drama "The New Employee Chairman Kang" and is currently reviewing the offer. "The New Employee Chairman Kang" is one of the works that was proposed", said Jeong Chae-yeon's agency, BH Entertainment.

"The New Employee Chairman Kang" is a drama about a real-life story in which the chairman of a leading conglomerate, called the God of Business, lives an unwanted second life in an accident, and is based on a web novel of the same name by San Kyung, who wrote the original JTBC's "Reborn Rich".

In this work, Lee Jun-young is portrayed as having been offered two distinct roles: that of a CEO, whose life is completely transformed by an accident, and a soccer player for whom soccer is everything in life.

Meanwhile, JTBC's new drama "The New Employee Chairman Kang" is scheduled to air next year.
