Actor Ong Seong-wu, formerly a member of the popular project boy group Wanna One, has been confirmed to star in the new KBS2 drama special project “Love: Track.” He takes the lead role in the episode titled “First Love Is Shared Earphones.”
Set in 2010, the episode tells the story of a top student whose life begins to change after she meets a free-spirited classmate. The plot captures the warm nostalgia of teenage dreams, growing pains, and the bittersweet emotions of first love.
Ong Seong-wu plays Ki Hyun-ha, a high school student who dreams of becoming a composer. After accidentally discovering a secret about Yeong-seo (played by Han Ji-hyun), he begins supporting her aspirations while developing gentle, heartfelt feelings for her. The episode promises a soft, sentimental depiction of youth and emotional awakening.
Since his debut as a singer, Ong Seong-wu has built a strong acting portfolio with roles in “Moments of Eighteen,” “Strong Girl Nam-soon,” “Life Is Beautiful,” and “Starlight Falls.” In July, he successfully expanded to the stage through the play “Shakespeare in Love,” earning positive reviews for his performance.
“Love: Track” continues KBS’s tradition of delivering impactful one-episode dramas, and anticipation is growing to see how Ong Seong-wu brings this tender first-love story to life.
