Rising star Byeon Woo Seok is set to make a special appearance in the tvN X TVING original drama 'No Gain No Love.' The drama is written by Kim Hye Young and directed by Kim Jung Sik.

According to a report by DongA.com, Byeon Woo Seok will be seen in a cameo role in 'No Gain No Love,' thanks to his connection with director Kim Jung Sik.

The two previously collaborated on last year's JTBC drama 'Strong Woman Gang Nam-soon.' Sources reveal that Byeon Woo Seok quickly agreed to join the project after receiving a call from director Kim.

'No Gain No Love' is a "zero-sum romance" that follows Son Hae Young (played by Shin Min Ah), a woman who decides to get married to avoid losses, and Kim Ji Wook (played by Kim Young Dae), a man who becomes a fake groom to prevent causing harm.

The show premiered on the 26th and has already captured viewers' attention. It recorded an average rating of 4.3% in the metropolitan area, peaking at 5.2%, and an average nationwide rating of 3.8%, peaking at 4.5%, according to Nielsen Korea.

Byeon Woo Seok's special appearance is expected to add even more excitement to the drama. His cameo is scheduled to air in next week's episode of 'No Gain No Love.'

Meanwhile, 'No Gain No Love' is part of the 'tvN X TVING Original' lineup, a joint project by tvN and TVING to reach both TV and OTT audiences. The drama airs every Monday and Tuesday at 8:50 PM on tvN and is also available on TVING.

A spinoff is planned for later release as a TVING original. Internationally, the show will be available in over 240 countries on Amazon Prime Video under the title 'No Gain No Love.'

Jung Woo Sung is back in the spotlight, making waves in China with his latest move.

According to News1 on April 3, Jung Woo Sung recently visited Beijing alongside Lee Jung Jae as co-founders of Artist Company. The two reportedly met with major entertainment officials, including those from Alibaba Group’s entertainment division, sparking speculation about the potential end of China’s Hallyu ban (Han Han Ryeong).

Industry insiders shared, "Jung Woo Sung and Lee Jung Jae appear to have discussed Korea-China joint film productions with key figures in the industry."

Their visit has already become a hot topic in China, with fans quickly spreading sightings of them on Chinese social media platform Weibo. A previous photo of the two visiting a cigar bar with top Chinese actress Zhou Dongyu also resurfaced, drawing even more attention.

This marks Jung Woo Sung’s first public appearance since his ‘out-of-wedlock child’ controversy in November last year.

At the time, he shocked the public by admitting he had a son with model Moon Ga Bi. However, he made it clear that they were not married and stated, "As a father, I will take full responsibility for my child."

Meanwhile, Jung Woo Sung is set to make his acting comeback this year with the Disney+ original series Made in Korea, raising anticipation for his return to the screen.
