Choi Woo Shik, Mun Ka Young, Heo Nam Jun, And More Confirmed For New Romance Drama
Choi Woo Shik, Mun Ka Young, Heo Nam Jun, and more have been confirmed for the upcoming drama “Whale Star: The Gyeongseong Mermaid” (working title)!
Based on a webtoon that reimagines Hans Christian Andersen’s “The Little Mermaid,” “Whale Star: The Gyeongseong Mermaid” is set in 1926 Gyeongseong (present-day Seoul) during Japanese occupation and follows the story of Kang Ui Hyeon, a man who dedicates everything to his country, and Su A, a woman who risks her life to protect him.
The drama will be co-directed by director Heo Jin Ho of “Christmas in August” and “One Fine Spring Day” and director Yoo Bum Sang of “Twinkling Watermelon” and “Study Group.” The star-studded cast consists of Choi Woo Shik, Mun Ka Young, Heo Nam Jun, Yoo Jae Myung, Kang Han Na, Kim Yeo Jin, and Gong Seung Yeon.
Choi Woo Shik will be independence fighter Kang Eui Hyeon who has a pro-Japanese father. While carrying out a mission with Song Hae Su to liberate their country, he is saved by Heo Su A, who he begins to consider his country. The casting raises anticipation for Choi Woo Shik’s portrayal of Kang Eui Hyeon’s pure love and strength in a period of great turmoil.
Mun Ka Young plays the kind-hearted Heo Su A, a maid of a pro-japanese household. After helping rescue independence fighter Kang Ui Hyeon from the sea, the two begin to develop feelings for each other. Mun Ka Young is expected to subtly portray the emotions of Heo Su A as she meets Kang Eui Hyeon and Song Hae Su—who enter her life like ocean waves.
Heo Nam Jun plays independence fighter Song Hae Su. After losing his family, he becomes a resolute figure willing to sacrifice his life for the greater cause. Although he becomes intertwined with Heo Su A in an unfortunate way, he continues to run into her as if by fate. Heo Nam Jun will portray the fiery Song Hae Soo with his passionate acting.
Furthermore, Yoo Jae Myung plays Kang Eui Hyeon’s pro-Japanese father Kang Geun Hyung. Working with Japan, he uses his son to fulfill his own desires.
Kang Han Na takes on the role of Han Yeon Kyung, a strong figure who doesn’t lose her resolve of gaining independence even while losing her husband and family in the fight.
Kim Yeo Jin plays Hwang Soon Im, the owner of cafe Whale Star who acts as the independence fighters’ mental support and provides a hideout for them, considering the members to be like family.
Gong Seung Yeon will make a special appearance as Yeo Yoon Hwa, the daughter of the pro-Japanese household where Heo Su A works. The actress will once again impress with her wide acting spectrum as she takes on the figure of Yeo Yoon Hwa, who acts prickly to her maid Heo Su A but still cares deeply for her on the inside.
“Whale Star: The Gyeongseong Mermaid” will premiere in 2027. Stay tuned for updates!

Mun Ka Young In Talks To Lead New Female-Centered Film
Mun Ka Young may star in a new film!
On May 26, a media outlet reported that the actress has been offered a lead role in the new film “Two Piece” (literal title).
In response to the report, a representative from her agency PEAK J Entertainment commented, “Mun Ka Young has received an offer for the film ‘Two Piece’ and is currently reviewing it.”
“Two Piece” is a female-centered film driven by a dual-lead narrative, telling the story of two women whose intertwined lives spiral toward catastrophe. The film is directed by Min Yong Geun of “Re-encounter” and “Soulmate.”
Notably, “Two Piece” has been selected as a recipient of the Korean Film Council’s production support program this year. With funding of 1.6 billion won (approximately $1.06 million) secured, there is strong confidence in the project’s artistic value from the planning and screenplay stages onward.
Mun Ka Young began her career as a child actor in 2006 with the film “Bloody Reunion.” Her international breakthrough came in 2020 with the hit drama “True Beauty.” Since then, she has continued to strengthen her reputation with consistent performances in dramas including “The Interest of Love,” “My Dearest Nemesis,” and “Law and The City,” as well as the recent film “Once We Were Us.”
She is currently filming her upcoming drama “Whale Star: The Gyeongseong Mermaid” (literal translation).
