Seo Hyun Jin's last drama was through SBS' "Why Her."

Interestingly, her character Yoon Seo Jung, in the hit medical series "Dr. Romantic," made a surprising cameo in the finale episode of "Dr. Romantic 3," which made the viewers speculate that the drama might produce another season, and that Seo Hyun Jin will make her return.

However, the team hasn't released an official statement yet on whether a sequel is about to be produced soon.
