Gang Dong-won and Kim Go-eun are to lead the cast of The Twilight Between Us, a romance-action period drama for Netflix Korea.
It will be directed by Kim Won-suk, known for acclaimed Netflix title When Life Gives You Tangerines, and is written by Park Ji-eun, whose credits include Queen Of Tears and Crash Landing On You.
The series will follow Mu-yeong and Su-ryeon, heirs to two houses locked in a century-long feud, who are forced into marriage by royal decree — a union intended by the king to end generations of conflict, but one that soon spirals in unforeseen directions.
Gang takes on the role of Mu-yeong, the illegitimate son of the House of Kang, who is known as the “Demon of the North” and lives in obscurity despite his exceptional martial skill and noble heart. Gang’s past roles include Yeon Sang-ho’s zombie thriller Peninsula, which received a Cannes label in 2020, as well as Hirokazu Koreeda’s Cannes 2022 award-winner Broker and Kim Sang-man’s Uprising, which opened Busan International Film Festival in 2024.
Kim stars as Su-ryeon, the only daughter of the House of Han, who finds herself bound by the royal marriage ban. Kim is known for starring roles in box office blockbuster Exhuma and hit series Yumi’s Cells.
Netflix has yet to set a release date.
