As fans await the announcement if he will officially accept the offer, Ok Taecyeon’s new drama will be teaming up with Apink’s Jung Eun Ji and Ha Seok Jin.
The singer-actor will be one of the main stars of OCN’s mystery thriller “Blind.”

Set to premiere in June, Ok Taecyeon took on the role of violent crime unit detective Ryu Sung Joon, who shows passion for his job and helping victims.
As noted by a local outlet, the 2PM member shared his thoughts on his new drama while on the cover of Star1 magazine.
The 33-year-old South Korean idol went on to describe his character as someone “who is quicker in his actions than in his words”.
Additionally, he said he would return to the small screen with a “serious, heavy vibe” and asked his fans to “look forward to it.”
