Described as a woman with a split personality, avid viewers can look forward to the "That Winter, The Wind Blows" star's portrayal of her unique role in "Meloholic."

TVXQ's Yunho and Kyung Soo Jin's new drama project will be helmed by Song Hyun Woon who directed the hit romantic comedy series "Another Miss Oh," also known as "Another Oh Hae Young." Apart from the said drama, Song Hyun Woon was the filmmaker for the tvN series "Marriage, Not Dating" and "Introverted Boss."
