Sooyoung and Kim Jae Young are confirmed to star in the upcoming drama "Idol Eye." The drama is a mystery and romance drama set in a courtroom, as reported by Soompi on Wednesday August 6, 2025.
'Idol Eye' tells the unique story of the relationship between a lawyer and her idol, who becomes a murder suspect. Sooyoung will play Maeng Se Na, a star lawyer known for her kindness but often defending criminals.
She's nicknamed the "criminals' lawyer" because she often takes on unpopular criminal cases. Despite her reputation, Se Na has been a die-hard fan of the boy group Gold Boys for 10 years.
When her idol, Do Ra Ik, becomes a murder suspect, she hides her identity as a fan and takes on the role of his legal advocate. In the process, he begins to unearth hidden truths that shake the legal and entertainment worlds.
Kim Jae Young will play Do Ra Ik, the main vocalist and visual of Gold Boys. She's an idol who appears perfect on the outside, but harbors a darkness within. As her popularity soars, she begins to feel like a burden to her fans.
When his life is thrown into disarray by a murder accusation, Do Ra Ik throws off all his masks and begins to live as if there's no tomorrow. The drama is directed by Lee Kwang Young, known for his refined directing style and stylish visuals in productions like 'Call It Love'.
The script was written by Kim Da Rin, who has been praised for her fresh and creative approach to drama stories. Sooyoung expressed her deep attraction to the character of Maeng Se Na because it portrays the contrast between the professionalism of a lawyer and the emotionality of a fan.
He stated that this was his first time playing such a role and that he thoroughly enjoyed his character's journey. Meanwhile, Kim Jae Young described 'Idol Eye' as an interesting drama because it blends various genres and is emotionally challenging.
The drama 'Idol Eye' promises to be a suspenseful, emotional story filled with the unconventional dynamics of a lawyer-client relationship. The series is scheduled to premiere in the second half of 2025.
