The upcoming JTBC drama will focus on the narrative of Lee Kyung Do and Seo Ji Woo. The duo meet during their youth and subsequently fall in love with each other in their twenties. As time passes by, they have an unanticipated reunion at an unexpected moment in their life. Director Lim Hyun Wook and screenwriter Yoo Young Ah are going to collaborate on the fluttering rom-com. Lim Hyun Wook has helmed dramas like ‘King the Land,’ ‘Flower Crew: Joseon Marriage Agency,’ and “Life.’ Meanwhile, Yoo Young Ah has previously penned ‘Thirty-Nine,’ ‘Divorce Attorney Shin,’ and more.  ‘Waiting for Gyeongdo’ is going to begin its production as soon as its cast is final. The broadcast schedule will be decided thereafter.
