With back-to-back project updates, actor Lee Chae-min is now rumored to be joining yet another production, sparking buzz.

According to YTN Star on the 12th, Lee Chae-min will star in a drama based on the popular webtoon 'What I Decided to Die For'.

He is reportedly set to play the male lead, Cha-gyeol. The story centers on Ji-o, a high school senior preparing for the national taekwondo team trials, and Cha-gyeol.

The female lead has yet to be confirmed. If Lee Chae-min finalizes his casting, it would further cement his rising profile after last year's Bon Appétit, Your Majesty boosted his mainstream recognition. Notably, industry insiders say he has already received around 30 scripts for his next project, highlighting just how hot his stock is right now.
