Actor Park Sung-hoon is rumored to be cast in the drama "Efficient Meetings of Unmarried Men and Women (abbreviated as Unmarried Men and Women)," with a potential return being raised.

On the 26th, a representative from his agency BH Entertainment noted to OSEN, "Regarding 'Unmarried Men and Women,' there is an actor being considered as a priority over Park Sung-hoon. We are waiting for an answer."

'Unmarried Men and Women' is a work being adapted into a drama based on the webtoon of the same name. It is a drama depicting the romance of unmarried men and women, who find love insufficient and conditions disappointing these days.

Amidst this, Park Sung-hoon has been considered for the male lead role. Previously, he was cast as the male lead in the new drama "The Tyrant's Chef" but dropped out, subsequently floating between new romantic comedy projects.

Earlier this year, Park Sung-hoon received acclaim for his realistic portrayal of a transgender character in the Netflix original series "Squid Game Season 2." As the "Squid Game" series has been a global hit, interest and praise towards Park Sung-hoon has been hotter than ever.

However, during the time when interest was pouring in, Park Sung-hoon accidentally posted a cover image of an adult video featuring "Squid Game" on his personal SNS. At that time, he explained that he had notified his agency to prevent any damage, but criticism was fierce. Moreover, backlash was widespread not only domestically but also internationally.

In response, Park Sung-hoon issued an apology and, during the interview arranged for "Squid Game Season 2," he shed tears while repeatedly apologizing to the public. Nevertheless, the critical opinion did not easily subside. Consequently, Park Sung-hoon left "The Tyrant's Chef" and was left waiting for his next project.

Among the discussions, 'Unmarried Men and Women' is reported to be a drama where Han Ji-min, who is also part of BH Entertainment, plays the female lead. Han Ji-min also chose this project after receiving acclaim for her role in the SBS drama "Love Scout." It raises curiosity about whether Park Sung-hoon and Han Ji-min can perform together in the same work.
