South Korean pop group SF9's Rowoon and actor Jo Bo Ah are currently in talks to star in the upcoming drama This Romance Is a Force Majeure (literal translation).
According to Korean tabloid Soompi, This Romance Is a Force Majeure will tell the love story of a woman who obtains a banned book that was carefully sealed 300 years ago—and the man who becomes a victim of that banned book.
On October 14, both stars’ agencies confirmed that they were in talks for the upcoming drama. FNC Entertainment stated, “Rowoon is currently in talks to appear in the new drama ‘This Romance Is a Force Majeure,’ and the outlook is favorable.”
Rowoon is in talks to play “the handsome, intelligent, and popular lawyer Jang Shin Yoo, who gets swept up in a series of unexpected events due to a terrifying curse that has been passed down from the Joseon era.”
Meanwhile, Jo Bo Ah’s agency KeyEast commented, “Jo Bo Ah has received a casting offer for ‘This Romance Is a Force Majeure,’ and she is reviewing the offer with a favorable outlook.” Jo Bo Ah has been offered the role of Lee Hong Jo, “an outgoing civil servant who is surprisingly unpopular with men despite her good looks, personality, and job.”
The new romance drama comes from a screenplay by 100 Days My Prince writer No Ji Sul and will be helmed by director Nam Ki Hoon.
