On 3rd March, tvN announced the confirmed cast of the upcoming drama Return, a series with elements of romance and fantasy. 

Starring the charming actor Lee Jae-wook, the NU’EST member Hwang Min-hyun, and the popular actress Jung So-min, this K-drama already has many fans waiting in anticipation.


A drama about spiritual powers and twisted fates


Set in the land of Dae-ho, a country that does not exist in history or on maps, Return revolves around young characters whose fates are tampered with through the spiritual arts. 

Due to a type of magic called the “remembrance magic”, the souls of the main characters are switched, and their lives get turned upside down.
