Regarding his upcoming drama debut, Yesung shared:

Although it’s my first time acting, it’s an honor to be a part of a project based on a really good webtoon. I was really nervous before the first shoot, but the atmosphere on set is so good, I am enjoying each day of filming. I want to show a story that everyone can relate to through ‘Hwang Jun Cheol,’ a character you don’t come across often. I am trying my best, so I ask for your support.

It is reported that director Kim Seok Yun, who previously worked on the KBS’ Old Miss Diary, JTBC’s I Live in Cheongdam-dong and the film Detective K, and scriptwriter Lee Nam Gyu will team up for the drama. Drill is slated for broadcast next month.
