Then this drama that was supposed to be his official debut in the drama scene is now canceled.
Meanwhile, his group NCT 2020 will release a new album on December 14th.
Although "Bungee Jumping of Their Own" is now canceled, Lee Hyun Wook still has two upcoming dramas. The actor will star in the upcoming dramas "The Bride of Black" and "Thief: The Sound of the Sword." He is also part of the upcoming film "The Policeman's Lineage."
