Actors Kim Yoon-seok and Kim Seon-ho will meet in 'The Honorable Member'.

The new drama 'The Honorable Member' (script by Kwon Jong-kwan, directed by Park Shin-woo, based on the Kakao Page web novel 'The Honorable Member' by Kim Hyun-bin), scheduled to air on tvN, is adapted from the popular web novel of the same name. It follows a soul alliance project where Gu Young-jin (played by Kim Yoon-seok), a 'max-level politician' National Assembly member who returns to the past as a ghost, and Cha Jae-rim (played by Kim Seon-ho), a 'political novice' grade 9 public official, protect each other and forge their destinies.

Director Park Shin-woo, known for his delicate and sensory direction in works such as 'Unknown Seoul', which won at the 62nd Baeksang Arts Awards Yeon Chul-sang-eul (수상), and 'It's Okay to Not Be Okay', has joined forces with writer Kwon Jong-kwan, author of 'Confession'. Most notably, the combination of trusted actors poised to maximize genre pleasure has also drawn attention. The meeting of Kim Yoon-seok and Kim Seon-ho, who will portray the bizarre buddy play between a 'dead power broker' who poured his life into politics and a 'living youth' indifferent to politics, heightens expectations for the production's quality.

Kim Yoon-seok delivers a powerful performance as Gu Young-jin, a 'max-level politician' National Assembly member who returns as a ghost seeking revenge. As a six-term National Assembly member, he is a character who believes politics is not about common sense but calculation, and not about conviction but design. Gu Young-jin, who stood at the center of power as a designer of the political arena, meets his end while entangled in a corruption scandal. Returning to the past as a ghost, he joins hands with Cha Jae-rim to reset his life and runs once again toward the center of politics. It remains to be seen how Kim Yoon-seok, who has built his own acting world with solid acting skills, will complete the role of the politician Gu Young-jin who has become a ghost. Kim Yoon-seok stated, "I am excited to be working with excellent actors and staff members. I am happy to have encountered a great work, and I will do my utmost to leave an unforgettable impression on viewers."

Kim Seon-ho transforms into Cha Jae-rim, a 'political novice' grade 9 public official who is lured into the political arena by the ghost politician Gu Young-jin. Cha Jae-rim, a youth who endures day by day without possessions or greed, aims only to live an ordinary life. However, an unexpected upheaval occurs when the ghost politician Gu Young-jin appears in Cha Jae-rim's life. Kim Seon-ho's passionate performance, which will heighten immersion in the unpredictable activities of Cha Jae-rim, who steps into the fierce world of politics as Gu Young-jin's avatar, is highly anticipated. Kim Seon-ho revealed, "It is truly an honor to be able to work with respected actors on a great work. I enjoyed the original web novel, and the drama script is also fun, and the set is enjoyable, so I am already looking forward to how the work will turn out. I will prepare diligently and look forward to your support."

Meanwhile, 'The Honorable Member' is scheduled to be aired on tvN.
