Lee Joo-myung, who skyrocketed with JTBC's weekend drama Reborn Rookie, is reportedly set to team up with Kim Young-kwang in a new project.

According to OSEN on the 9th, Lee Joo-myung and Kim Young-kwang have been offered scripts for ENA's new drama Queen of Taming and are positively reviewing the roles.

As reported, Queen of Taming is a romantic comedy about Ji-yong (played by Kim Young-kwang), a top predator in the finance food chain and a powerful hedge funder, and Woo-ri (played by Lee Joo-myung), a contract veterinarian at a zoo he acquires, who plunge into a battle-of-wills where the power dynamic flips.

Netizens reacted with excitement, saying, "Her next project sounds so good" and "I liked Lee Joo-myung, and her pairing with Kim Young-kwang is something I'm really looking forward to," among other responses.

Meanwhile, Queen of Taming is aiming to air next year.
