The "Law School" star and Rain partaking in "Ghost Doctor" has been recently confirmed by their respective managements.

Earlier this week, Kim Bum's agency, King Kong by Starship, revealed that the actor had accepted the offer, adding, "Kim Bum will be appearing in 'Ghost Doctor' in the role of Go Seung Tak. We ask that you show a lot of love and interest in Kim Bum, who will continue to work hard in the future."

The same goes for the OG Oppa, who was previously confirmed in March that he would act as the male lead in "Ghost Doctor."

The upcoming fantasy medical drama will be helmed by Boo Sung Chul, who has directed several notable series, including "The Heirs" and the 2010 "My Girlfriend Is a Gumiho."

In addition, he will be joined by remarkable screenwriter Kim Eun Hee, who penned "Sweet 18" and "My Fair Lady."

"Ghost Doctor" follows the story of two doctors who share different backgrounds, outlooks, and personalities but are joined by one mission.

Cha Young Min, portrayed by Rain, is a genius thoracic surgeon, while Kim Bum is set to take on the character of the wealthy resident, Go Seung Tak.

On the other hand, medical intern Oh Soo Jung, played by Apink's Son Naeun, believes in the existence of miracles and supernatural phenomena despite being in the medical field.

Interestingly, she dreams of becoming a thoracic surgeon because of a hidden secret and is eager to fulfill her lifelong dream even with her family's disapproval.

Apart from her appearance in "Ghost Doctor," the Apink member is confirmed to star in the new K-drama "No Longer Human."
