It has been a year of k-drama reunions with some k-drama stars such as Jang Hyuk and Jang Nara reuniting after more than a decade. Hyun Bin and actress Han Ji Min are considering an acting reunion, but their reunion may take place only months after the last time they acted together.

Hyun Bin and Han Ji Min worked together in the film "The Fatal Encounter," playing a king and a queen. But despite their titles, they were not a royal couple. Nor were their characters nice to each other. Hyun Bin played King Jeongjo, a king under repeated threat of assassination, and Han Ji Min played his grandfather's queen consort, Queen Jeongsun.

If she takes the role of Hyun Bin's girlfriend in the upcoming drama, "Dr  Jekyl, Mr. Hyde," she will have to be nicer to him. The 20-episode comedy is based on the Lee Choong Ho's webtoon titled "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde." Hyun Bin is cast as the leading character, a radio disc jockey and writer with two very different personalities. He's aloof and cold during the day and warm and charming at night. This makes it more likely that his night personality will inspire people to fall in love with him.

The character that Han Ji Min is considering interacts with both sides of this man's personality, which will lead to some romantic confusion.

According to her agency, BH Entertainment, the actress received and is considering the offer.

"It is one of the productions that Han Ji Min is reviewing," said the BH representative. "If it is confirmed, we will share the good news."

 "Dr. Jekyll, Mr. Hyde" is going to be Hyun Bin's first drama since he returned from mandatory military service in 2013. If she accepts the role, "Dr. Jekyll, Mr. Hyde" would be Han Ji Min's first small screen appearance since she starred in the 2012 drama "Rooftop Prince" with Park Yoochun. Han Ji Min has been acting since she was in high school. Besides "Rooftop Prince," he is best known for her roles in "Padam, Padam" and "Cain and Abel."

"Dr. Jekyll, Mr. Hyde" begins filming mid-November and is expected to air in January or February of 2015.

Jo Young Kwang who directed "A Well Grown Daughter" and "49 Days" will direct "Dr. Jekyll, Mr. Hyde." Kim Ji Woon, who wrote "Cheomdamdong Alice," is the drama's screenwriter.
