Kim Jae Won will be Kim Go Eun's leading man in Yumi's Cells Season 3.
On May 19, media outlets reported that Kim Jae Won had been chosen to play Kim Go Eun's new leading man in the new season of Yumi's Cells.
Kim Jae Won will be the third and last leading man of Kim Go Eun in Yumi's Cells' story.
Yumi's Cells Season 3 will showcase Yumi's journey as a star writer when a surprising romance enters her life. This unexpected relationship will trigger a new wave of emotions, reawakening the quiet cell village in her mind. The K-drama adapted its story from the popular webtoon of the same name by Lee Dong Geon.
Director Lee Sang Yeob and writers Song Jae Jung, Kim Yoon Joo, and Kim Kyung Ran will work together once again for the upcoming third season.
Kim Jae Won will portray the role of Soon Rok, the new employee at Julie Publishing’s editorial department. He will wake up Yumi's stagnant cell village as he eventually becomes Yumi's last boyfriend.
The actor shared his insights as he becomes Soon Rok, "I feel honored to join and be given a good opportunity to be part of this much-loved piece. I will do my best to become a good Soon Rok. Please show your love and support."
Yumi's Cells Season 3 will begin airing in the first half of 2026. It will exclusively air on TVING.
This will be the third upcoming K-drama of Kim Jae Won for 2026.
The actor will also join the cast of The Art of Sarah and Sea Village Cloud Pension.
Before Kim Jae Won greets viewers as Soon Rok, he will first work with Kim Go Eun in the upcoming K-drama You and Everything Else, which will premiere later this year. The upcoming K-drama will exclusively premiere on Netflix.
