Power dynamics, animal kingdoms, and an unlikely spark — this new K-drama pitch practically writes its own trailer.
On July 9, OSEN reported that Lee Ju Myoung and Kim Young Kwang recently received offers to star in ENA’s upcoming drama “Queen of Taming.” Both actors are said to be reviewing the offers positively, fueling fan excitement over a fresh romantic-comedy pairing.
Queen of Taming Plot: Boss, Meet Your New Vet
“Queen of Taming” follows Ji Yong, a hedge fund manager at the top of the financial food chain, and Woo Ri, a contract veterinarian at a zoo he acquires. As the power dynamic between their employer-employee relationship flips upside down, the two become entangled in an unexpected romance.
Lee Ju Myoung is in talks to play Woo Ri, while Kim Young Kwang has reportedly been offered the role of Ji Yong. Lee Ju Myoung’s agency, Alien Company, confirmed it’s “one of the projects she is currently in discussions for,” while Kim Young Kwang, known for his versatile turns from rom-com leads to chilling villains, has yet to comment through his side.
