MANILA, Philippines – Sehun of K-pop group EXO will be joining rising stars Jo Joon-young and Jang Yeo-bin in a new TVING drama series titled All That We Loved, the streaming platform announced on Wednesday, July 27.
According to Soompi, the new high school romance drama will follow a love triangle between the 18-year-olds who will struggle to choose between love and friendship.
EXO’s Sehun will be portraying Go Yoo who is best friends with Go Joon-hee, played by Joon-young. Both of them will fall in love with Yeo-bin’s character Han Se-yeon, who is a secretive transfer student in their school.
The plot thickens as the top student Joon-hee receives a kidney transplant from his best friend and he experiences “cellular memory” syndrome. “According to the theory of cellular memory, memories and personal traits can be stored in organs other than the brain, so they can be inherited through organ donation,” wrote the The Korea Times.
Sehun is a rapper and singer from the boy group EXO. Aside from being known in the K-pop music industry, he has also previously starred in other Korean movies and dramas such as Now, We Are Breaking Up (2021) and The Pirates: Goblin Club (2022).
