From her remarkable role as a lawyer with autism, Park Eun Bin is set to make her TV return. But as an aspiring singer this time.  

On Thursday, September 28, Netflix Korea released the official trailer for its upcoming series Castaway Diva starring the South Korean actress. 

In the drama, Eun Bin plays the role of Seo Mok-ha, an aspiring singer who gets drifted out onto a deserted island while on her way to audition in Seoul. The 48-second trailer showed a glimpse of Mok-ha’s daily life in the island where she got stranded for 15 years.

Still holding on to her dream to become a singer, she narrated: “I saw myself in the distant future. At this moment, my futile 15 years have become meaningful”.

Prior to the teaser, TVN already released posters and stills of Mok-ha. In one of the posters, Mok-ha looked sparkling as the text read: “A story that will save your dream from drifting away”.

The upcoming romantic-comedy drama will be a collaborative work of Director Oh Choong Hwan and writer Park Hye Run. Previously, the duo worked together in the 2017 drama While You Were Sleeping and Start Up in 2020.

Eun Bin will be joined by actors Chae Jong Hyeop, Kim Hyo Jin, Kim Joo Heon, and VIXX member Cha Hak Yeon, who’s also known by his stage name N.

Park Eun Bin’s comeback drama

Interestingly, Castaway Diva will be Park Eun Bin’s comeback drama after the critically-acclaimed Netflix series Extraordinary Attorney Woo. The global hit series was nominated in the Drama Series category of the 2023 International Emmy Awards. 

Earlier this year, the actress also bagged the Baeksang Grand Prize for her portrayal of Atty. Woo Young Woo. 

With the success of Extraordinary Attorney Woo, the production company behind the drama confirmed that they have signed a contract with writer Moon Ji Won to work on a second season. However, there are no confirmations yet on Park Eun Bin’s return in the drama.

For the meantime, fans will be able to see Eun-Bin in a new light as Mok-ha. Castaway Diva is set to premiere on October 28.
