• While we await for the premiere of Stealer: The Treasure Keeper, Joo-won (Alice) is fielding offers for his next project and is considering a new thoughtful romance called Nighttime Photo Studio (roughly translated). If he accepts, Joo-won will be playing a photographer who takes photo of the dead and his encounter with one woman in particular leads him to realize how precious life can be. [Newsen]

• MBC’s new fantasy romance The Story of Park’s Marriage Contract (roughly translated) has added Yoo Seon-ho (Under the Queen’s Umbrella) to the cast, going from royal brothers to chaebol half-brothers with Bae In-hyuk (Cheer Up). The webtoon adaptation will be centered around Lee Se-young (The Law Cafe) as a 19th century Joseon woman who time travels to present day. [Star News]

The new third season begins this April, following Taxi Driver 2 in the weekend slot. [SBS]
• A new video teaser has dropped for KBS’s upcoming weekender The Real Deal Has Come, unveiling more about our parents-to-be played by Baek Jin-hee (Happy to Die) and Ahn Jae-hyun (People with Flaws).
