2PM's Taecyeon & Lee Yeon Hee to reunite as leads in new MBC drama 'The Game'

AKP STAFF

On August 2, MBC confirmed that 2PM member/actor Taecyeon and actress Lee Yeon Hee have been cast as the male and female leads of an upcoming Wed-Thurs drama, titled 'The Game: Toward 0 AM' ('The Game' for short). 

'The Game' tells the story of a man with a unique, psychic power and a female detective, as they team up to solve a serial murder case. Taecyeon will play the role of a psychic named Kim Tae Pyung - living with the unique ability to see the moment that a person dies once he meets their eyes. A smart and bright character, Kim Tae Pyung doesn't treat his ability like a curse, always staying focussed on finding the right answer. 

Opposite Taecyeon, Lee Yeon Hee plays the role of a charismatic female detective, Seo Jun Young. Despite her tough exterior, Jun Young carries a scar from her father's death at a young age. 

Meanwhile, Teacyeon and Lee Yeon Hee previously worked together as co-stars in the 2013 film 'Marriage Blue'. They will be reuniting as co-stars again after 6 years through 'The Game', slated to premiere some time in January of next year.

Again? I was happy about the news, but this has turned me off.

Looks like Taecyeon’s in for another stellar drama, saving lives from untimely deaths with his unique psychic power. Anticipating to watch these 2 leads on screen again!

This reminds of Nickelback's "Savin Me" : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_JQiEs32SqQ
