Actor Kim Hyun-jin will appear in 'Next Door, Francesca'.

On the 27th, Aer Entertainment stated, "Kim Hyun-jin is scheduled to meet viewers as Jang Woo-ju, a model son of a doctor's family, in 'Next Door, Francesca.' We are delighted to be able to present this spin-off drama of a highly beloved work. Please look forward to and show great interest in Kim Hyun-jin's new transformation."

'Next Door, Francesca' is a spin-off drama that expands the universe from the sitcom 'Hello, Francesca,' which first premiered in 2005 and sparked the 'Vampire Syndrome.' The story follows vampire Pina-young (played by Han Soo-ah), who transfers schools from Romania and struggles to adapt to the human world, as she meets class president Woo-ju. This sweet yet dangerous romance of youth wavering between love and instinct is expected to captivate not only original fans but also viewers of a new generation.

Among them, Jang Woo-ju, played by Kim Hyun-jin, is the youngest son in a doctor's family with doctor parents, an older brother, and an older sister, serving as the class president of a second-year student at Duil High School. With a warm appearance, intelligence, and kind personality, he appears perfect on the surface but is actually perpetually ranked second, plagued by anxiety over his grades and wandering without knowing what he truly wants to do—a realistic portrayal of contemporary youth. He is expected to cheerfully depict his transformation after meeting MZ vampire Na-young.

Kim Hyun-jin has revealed his presence as a 'Rising Star' through numerous works. With stable acting skills and outstanding physicality, he has left a mark on viewers by portraying diverse characters ranging from students to department heads, star writers, and private investigators. Given his broad acting spectrum that shows a new face for every character, anticipation builds for what kind of appearance he will bring in this upcoming work.

'Next Door, Francesca' is scheduled to be released this year.
