Singer IU is reportedly in talks to be the female lead of a new drama on KBS 2TV.

According to a KBS associate on March 2, IU has been suggested as the female lead of a drama called “Producer” (working title). The part is that of a popular star singer.

The associate said, “It is true that IU is being discussed as the female lead of ‘Producer,’ but it has not been confirmed. There are no confirmations for the casting besides Cha Tae Hyun.”

“Producer” will tell a story of happenings at a broadcast station. The drama will be produced by Seo Soo Min, who has led “Gag Concert” and “1 Night 2 Days,” while the script was written by Park Ji Eun, who has written “My Love from the Stars,” “My Husband Got A Family,” and “Queen of Reversals.”
