Netflix is preparing a new webtoon adaptation that is already starting to cause a stir: "1/24 romance", a fantastic romance in which 2 strangers see their souls exchanged for one hour a day, every day, at a totally random time. An original concept, between emotion, humor and forced intimacy, signed Kim Sang-hyeop, director of "True Beauty" and "Melancholia". And according to several sources, the main duet could well be formed by Shin Hye-sun and Na In-woo. A cast that adds to the anticipation surrounding this series scheduled for 2026.
Shin Hye-sun, approached to play a brilliant producer with a dark past
Shin Hye-sun has been approached for the role of Cha Ju-an, a star producer in the entertainment department of a major network. 8 years on the job, a reputation for excellence and a way of working where she never gives up until she's tried everything. Ju-an gives it her all, always, never leaving room for regret.
But behind the formidable professional lies a woman still trapped by painful memories. The daily exchange of souls, with a man totally different from her, becomes a second chance. One hour a day to breathe differently, see differently, feel differently.
Already involved in "Lady Dua" (Netflix, 2026) and "Secret gratitude" on tvN (2026), Shin Hye-sun is continuing a particularly busy 2026. Seeing her return in a rom-com, a genre where she always shines, creates a high level of expectation.
Na In-woo confirmed as tennis champion marked by loss
Opposite her, Na In-woo has officially accepted the male lead role: Yoo Do-jin, a tennis genius considered a miracle of Korean sport. A man endowed with a rare, almost unreal talent, as if fate had placed in him only the best possible attributes.
But this "gift" comes at a price. Life has taken away what he loved most, leaving Do-jin in a frantic race to escape his own memories. The daily exchange of souls, unpredictable and confusing, becomes for him an upheaval... but also a beginning of healing.
Freshly exempted from military service after a long administrative process, Na In-woo makes her comeback after "Motel California". The role is intense, introspective and romantic, allowing her to show off her full range of talents.
With its unique concept, charismatic lead duo and the touch of a director accustomed to impactful romances, "1/24 Romance" promises to be one of the most eagerly awaited fantasy rom-coms in the Netflix 2026 line-up.
