Actor Park Si-woo has been unexpectedly cast as the lead in Wavve's exclusive upcoming series 'The Prosecutor's Proposal' as his first move after establishing the creative company 'INUFF (Inuff)'.

Scheduled for release in June, the Wavve-exclusive series 'The Prosecutor's Proposal' (directed by Yang Kyung-hee, based on the web novel by Hebok, distributed by KT Studio Genie, produced by Oak Company) is adapted from Hebok's popular web novel of the same name. The story follows a cold-blooded prosecutor and an investigator pursuing the truth of a case as they unravel a series of crimes together, gradually understanding and building emotional bonds with one another. Notably, the series stands out by prominently featuring the rare 'crime investigation' element within the BL genre, garnering attention as one of the most anticipated hits of 2026 for its ability to balance intense tension with delicate emotional storytelling.

In the drama, Park Si-woo takes on the lead role of 'Lee Chae-ha', embarking on a full-fledged leading actor journey. Lee Chae-ha is an investigator who relentlessly pursues the truth, stopping at nothing to solve the case, possessing a sharp intuition and extraordinary passion. Through this work, Park Si-woo is expected to lead the drama by showcasing not only his unique, visually striking appearance but also his solid and resilient inner acting, while delivering a high-density emotional arc and perfect acting chemistry with his co-star, prosecutor Joo Tae-seon (played by Kim Yun-sik).

Notably, this casting has drawn significant industry attention as it marks Park Si-woo's first move following his recent declaration to establish the creative company 'INUFF (Inuff)' under the slogan "Beyond Imperfection, Toward Possibility," and his announcement to challenge existing frameworks as an "autonomous creator."

Adding to the confidence is the direction of Yang Kyung-hee, a "genre master" recognized for her delicate directing skills in numerous hit works such as 'Secret Relationship', 'When Your Touch Reaches My Fingertips', and 'Tractor Carrying Love', and who has recently gained further attention through ENA's short drama project 'Directors Arena'. With distribution support from KT Studio Genie, which boasts a global distribution network, a solid foundation has been laid for Park Si-woo's expansion into the global market. In particular, this project is the next new work from Oak Company, the production house behind last year's hit drama 'Thunder Clouds and Rainy Wind', which dominated domestic and international platforms. Expectations are high both inside and outside the broadcasting industry that it will continue the success story of its predecessor's global box office performance and fan meeting tours across Asia. Amidst this proven production synergy, Park Si-woo's potential to leap as a next-generation global star is considered high.

Through this work, Park Si-woo is set to showcase a three-dimensional character that oscillates between the intense charisma of an investigator pursuing a case and delicate emotional acting, exuding a presence beyond that of a newcomer. With the synergy of a solid production team and a global distribution network, encounters with overseas viewers are also anticipated. There is growing expectation as to whether this work will become a representative title that elevates Park Si-woo to the ranks of next-generation rising stars, and further, whether it will firmly imprint his name on the public consciousness, heralding the birth of a new star.
