Kim Sejeong (Business Proposal), Son Dongwoon (Highlight), and Nam Yoon-su (Extracurricular) are all slated to co-star in SBS’s forthcoming drama Today’s Webtoon. The next drama, which will show on Friday and Saturday, is a replica of Sleeper Hit!, a famous 2016 Japanese drama. Haru Kuroki, Joe Odagiri, and Kentarô Sakaguchi featured in the original drama.
The film stars Son Dongwoon. Today’s Webtoon will debut on July 29th.
Today’s Webtoon follows On Ma-eum, a former judo player who changes jobs to join the webtoon editing department as a new employee. Ma-eum is trying to make her way in the odd world of South Korea’s competitive webtoon business. Son Dongwoon’s agency, Around Us Entertainment, reported on June 7 that the idol-turned-actor has been given a part in the drama. They verified that
“Son Dongwoon will play Oh Yoon in the SBS drama ‘Today’s Webtoon,’ which premieres on July 29.”
The young actor will make his broadcast debut in today’s Webtoon. He has previously appeared in the online series The Guys I Want to Catch. The idol will portray Oh Yoon, a bright and attractive webtoon writer, in the SBS drama. Oh Yoon, who is popular and charming, wins as many hearts with his appearance as he does with his writing. Oh Yoon, who rose to prominence via his slice-of-life series and television appearances, plays an important role in revitalizing the webtoon after collaborating with Neon Webtoon’s editorial staff on his new project.

Kim Sejeong’s agency, Jellyfish Entertainment, announced the actor’s involvement in the program in March. On Ma-eum, the protagonist will be played by Kim Sejeong. On Ma-eum is originally prepared for disappointment after giving up on her Olympic hopes due to an ailment. However, the ever-optimistic former athlete then turns her attention to webtoons, which were a source of comfort for her even while she was an athlete.
Goo Joon-young, a new employee in the webtoon editing department, has an excellent IQ of 150 and aspires to be the greatest of the best. After leading an easy life, Goo Joon-young experiences adversity for the first time as he struggles to adapt to his new job in the new webtoon department after working at a well-known IT business. Goo Joon-young can pour his heart and soul into whatever he does after some self-reflection, ultimately becoming more like On Ma-eum. Given the success of Business Proposal and Son Dongwoon’s fame, many fans are looking forward to the drama.
