Model and actor Bae Jung-nam will appear as Hani (stage name of EXID's Ahn Hee-yeon)'s male friend in 'Love Is Coming'.

KBS 2TV's new weekend drama 'Love Is Coming' (directed by Hong Seok-gu / written by Lee Kyung-hee) is a family recipe drama about two men and women who gather the fragments of a broken family to create the warmest meal of life.

In the drama, Bae Jung-nam plays Jo Heung-sik, the male friend of Han Gyu-rim (played by Ahn Hee-yeon). Jo Heung-sik, despite his clean-cut appearance, delivers a surprising twist with his unfiltered Busan dialect the moment he speaks. As a son who lives as his mother's 'full-time child,' he diligently helps with household chores and the side dish shop, embodying a filial son with a reliable personality and strong spirit that makes those around him feel at ease. With his tall visuals and endearing charm coexisting, Bae Jung-nam's signature flavorful everyday acting will add vitality to the drama.

In the first character stills released on the 29th, Bae Jung-nam perfectly captures the warm, Busan-man-like charm, captivating viewers. True to a son who has stayed by his mother's side more than anyone else, he sends a worried gaze toward the fallen Park Soo-nam (played by Kang Ae-shim), fully conveying Jo Heung-sik's tender heart. Especially, despite the facial injuries and casts on both arms, his effort to maintain a smile shows a reliable presence that can be trusted and leaned on at any moment.

In another still, Jo Heung-sik reveals a new atmosphere with a neat and sophisticated style, 180 degrees different from his usual look. This sparks curiosity about what narrative may be hidden behind Jo Heung-sik, who exudes a heavy aura concealed behind his always friendly and carefree image.

The production team stated, "Bae Jung-nam completed the character of Jo Heung-sik more three-dimensionally with his unique ability to embody characters and his compelling acting. He will be responsible for both fun and warmth through his perfect mother-son chemistry in the drama."

'Love Is Coming' will air its first episode on July 25 at 8 p.m.
