Talking about his plans for the near future, the GOT7 member revealed that the filming of ‘Unknown Seoul’ with Park Bo Young might be at the top of his list. “After being discharged, I think I will start filming for ‘Unknown Seoul.’ After that, I think I will be able to greet viewers with another project next year.”
The drama will chronicle the lives of twin sisters who are different in every aspect except their faces. However, they swap identities, weaving an intricate web of lies. This comes to haunt them when they find love, complicating matters of heart. For the slated drama, Park Bo Young will essay the role of the twins. Meanwhile, Jinyoung will play Ho Su. He is a man who has been in a relationship with Mi Ji, one of the twin sisters, since his school days.
