ZE:A's Siwan has been confirmed as a cast member of�MBC's new daily sitcom, 'Standby'!

'Standby' is just the tentative title for the drama, and the full line-up of actors and actresses have just completed their first script reading together. The drama itself is about a fictional broadcast network called 'TV11', and follows the lives of its staff and employees. Viewers will be able to experience the lives of entertainment industry professionals such as producers, writers, and announcers as they go through love and hardships in a realistic, but comedic light.

Im Siwan's specific role is a high school student by the same name, who not only has perfect grades, but also handsome looks and talent to boot. Having virtually everything at his will, he acts rather indifferently to everyone around him.

Siwan has been in previous drama endeavors such as MBC's 'The Moon That Embraces the Sun' and 'The Equator Man'. He's certainly broadening his range of experience from historical to comedy, so the spotlight is certainly on him to see how he'll fare.

'Standby' will begin airing this April.
