Lee Dong Wook  and Jung Ryeo Won are reunited in tvN's romantic comedy, "Bubblegum." "Bubblegum" marks the K-Drama reunion of the on-screen couple who last appeared together in the 2003 series, "Live Properly." 

Set within a hospital and a radio station, "Bubblegum" is a modern day fairy tale that examines the solitude and tumultuous feelings experienced by many adults, which can only be healed by love. 

Lee Dong Wook is Park Ri Hwan, a hospital director. Jung Ryeo Won portrays Kim Haeng Ah, a radio station producer who has worked within her profession for eight years. Ri Hwan and Haeng Ah are childhood friends who find solace in their romantic relationship. 

In recent years, Lee Dong Wook has played several emotionally conflicted characters. He portrayed an affection-starved hotel executive in MBC's "Hotel King" before taking on the role of a forlorn heir with supernatural powers in the KBS2 series, "Blade Man." 

Jung transitioned from the defunct group, Chakra, to star in K-Drama classics like "My Name Is Kim Sam Soon" and "The King of Dramas." Her last television role was in the 2013 MBC series, "Medical Top Team." 

"Bubblegum" will be simulcast on DramaFever. The series premieres on October 26. 

A Pink's Jung Eun Ji returns to Korean television in the teen comedy, "Sassy, Go Go." The series, which is also known as "Cheer Up," is centered around the trials and tribulations of high school cheerleaders.

The popular A Pink member portrays Kang Yeon Doo, a cheerleader with low grades, who struggles with the pressures of academic success. Her role in "Sassy, Go Go" follows her critically acclaimed portrayal of Choi Choon Hee, a contemporary trot vocalist in the 2014 musical drama, "Trot Lovers." 

Lee Kwon Keun (Moon Embracing the Sun, Secret Door) stars as Kim Yeol, the male lead in the series. Ji Soo, who experienced his breakout role in the 2015 series, "Angry Mom," portrays Seo Ha Joon. 

"Sassy, Go Go" premieres on October 5 on MBC, in the time slot previously occupied by "The Eccentric Daughter-in-Law."
