On the 14th, his agency 51K said, "Cha Hak-yeon was cast in the drama "Castaway Diva"".

"Castaway Diva" is a human emotional drama about Seo Mok-ha, a girl who runs aground on a deserted island while dreaming of becoming a diva and tries to become a diva again after 15 years.

Cha Hak-yeon appears as Kang Woo-hak, the male lead in "Castaway Diva". Woo-hak is a bright and pleasant reporter in a broadcasting station, and is a warm person who actively helps Mok-ha (Park Eun-bin) by sympathizing with her story after rescuing her.

Over the past few years, Cha Hak-yeon has built solid acting skills across genres and characters through various works such as tvN's "Familiar Wife" and MBC's "Children of Nobody". In particular, he won the 2022 KBS Drama Special TV Cinema Award for his delicate psychological description and extreme emotional connection through KBS's "Drama Special 2022 - Stain" in 2022 and became an actor recognized for his acting skills.

Cha Hak-yeon said, "I'm excited and looking forward to the time I'm going to spend as a Woo-hak for the next few months. As soon as I read the script, I wanted to be him, and I became curious about the character. I hope I can show you my new self and another charm through Woo-hak, who is optimistic and warm".

Meanwhile, "Castaway Diva" is drawing attention as the third work in which director Oh Choong-hwan and writer Park Hye-ryeon, who joined tvN's "Start Up" after SBS's "While You Were Sleeping", join forces. In addition, actress Park Eun-bin, who captivated the entire nation with ENA's "Extraordinary Attorney Woo" and actors Kim Hyo-jin and Chae Jong-hyeop will perform together, raising expectations. "Castaway Diva" is scheduled to start filming in the first half of 2023.
