Actors Song Kang and Kim So-hyun have confirmed their participation in MBC's new Friday-Saturday drama "White Scandal."

MBC's new Friday-Saturday drama "White Scandal" (planned by Yoon Hong-mi/directed by Kim Cheol-gyu/screenplay by Kim Ga-eun/produced by Ghost Studio and Web Script Creative) is a mutual redemption romance based on the webtoon "White Scandal." It follows Dhan I-hyuk, a third-generation chaebol actor who does not want to become an heir, and Ji Eun-seol, a fallen child star, as they begin a fake relationship to deceive the world and heal their buried past wounds together.

Most notably, with Song Kang and Kim So-hyun reuniting, expectations are high for the new romance chemistry the two will showcase. Having previously presented a fresh youth romance, the pair will now portray a man and woman who have met again while carrying past scars, aiming to depict deeper emotional dynamics.

Song Kang plays Dhan I-hyuk, Korea's top actor and third-generation chaebol heir in the drama. Born as an illegitimate child of a chaebol family, I-hyuk has lived his life acting out the image desired by his grandfather since childhood. As a top star within the camera but as a grandson of a chaebol family outside it, he struggles to escape the chaebol succession line and eventually begins a fake relationship with Ji Eun-seol (played by Kim So-hyun), a former child star who has fallen from grace.

Song Kang has demonstrated his versatility across genres, from romance to fantasy and thriller, in various works. He is expected to deliver even deeper emotional performances as Dhan I-hyuk, a character with the appearance of a glamorous top star but also harboring hidden wounds and complex inner turmoil.

Kim So-hyun portrays Ji Eun-seol, a once-promising child actor who fell from grace due to an incident. Loved as a child actor in her early years, Eun-seol now lives as a manager without giving up on her dream of acting. Upon reuniting with Dhan I-hyuk, the central figure of the past incident, she confronts the buried secrets of her past.

Kim So-hyun has built a solid acting career and successfully portrayed diverse characters in various works. Known for persuasively expressing delicate emotional nuances across all genres, she is set to deeply depict the complex emotions of Ji Eun-seol, whose life direction changed after a single incident.

Meanwhile, MBC's "White Scandal," which has confirmed the casting of Song Kang and Kim So-hyun, is scheduled to begin filming shortly.
