The excitement surrounding the crossover of K-pop idols into the acting sphere reaches a new high as tvN officially revealed the first-look details for its upcoming Monday-Tuesday romance comedy drama, My Bias, My Boss.
Broadcast network tvN confirmed on July 10, 2026, that Yuna, the charismatic youngest member of the global girl group ITZY, will be playing a major role in the production.
The news has sent a surge of anticipation through the global entertainment community, highlighting Yuna’s swift and impressive evolution into a versatile rookie actress.
Capturing Two Sides of Stardom: Yuna’s Character Dynamic
In My Bias, My Boss, Yuna steps into the shoes of Yoon Choi, a character designed to showcase both her natural elegance and her range as a performer.
Yoon Choi is introduced as a naturally beautiful, top-tier rising actress whose life becomes inextricably intertwined with her fellow industry professionals.
During the recently highlighted script reading sessions, production staff praised Yuna’s ability to smoothly navigate the complex traits of her character.
The production team noted that Yuna brings a fresh layer of tension and romantic intrigue to the series.
She portrays a character who balances a dual charm, masterfully shifting between a sweet, shy smile and a sharp, piercing gaze.
As a top actress within the show’s universe, Yoon Choi’s presence adds an energetic element to the plot’s central love triangle, forcing the other characters to confront their underlying feelings while keeping the audience guessing about where her true affections lie.
Behind the Scenes of a Star-Studded Webtoon Adaptation
The upcoming romantic comedy is a highly anticipated adaptation of the popular Naver webtoon My Oppa Is an Idol (also known under alternative titles such as My Favorite Employee), originally created by webtoon author Seong Eun.
The adaptation is being helmed by directors Park Ji Hyun and Jung Da Hyeong, alongside screenwriters Lee Young and Kim Ji An, and is being produced under the powerhouse banner of Studio Dragon.
The main narrative revolves around Nam Da Reum (played by Kim Hye Joon), an enthusiastic, 11-year dedicated fan of an idol group member named Lee Chan (played by Cha Woo Min).
Driven by her pure dedication to her favorite celebrity, Da Reum turns down employment offers from major corporations specifically to work at a fashion startup called Appello, where her favorite idol, Lee Chan, happens to serve as a corporate director.
However, just as she attempts to turn her passion into a functional career, she finds her daily corporate life completely upended when she gets unexpectedly entangled with the company’s cold-on-the-outside, warm-on-the-inside CEO, Kang Ha Gi (played by Kang Hoon).
Yuna’s character, Yoon Choi, operates within this chaotic corporate and entertainment landscape, bringing her own star power and distinct narrative arc into the mix.
Fans are eager to see how her real-world experiences as a top-tier K-pop idol will translate into her portrayal of an on-screen celebrity navigating a complicated romantic landscape.
My Bias, My Boss is officially scheduled to premiere its first episode on August 3, 2026, at 8:50 p.m. KST, taking over the highly competitive Monday-Tuesday time slot on tvN.
Comprising 12 episodes with an extended running time of 1 hour and 10 minutes per episode, the drama is poised to be one of the definitive romantic comedy releases of the summer season.
