Gong Myung is returning to the small screen.

On the 11th, the production team of the Tving original series ‘A Week Before I Die’ released the first still cut of Gong Myung filled with the innocent emotions of youth.

‘A Week Before I Die’ is a youth fantasy romance that unfolds when Hee-wan (played by Kim Min-ha), who has turned her back on the world and wasted her youth, is approached by her first love Ram-woo (played by Gong Myung) as a grim reaper. It is based on a novel of the same name. The story of a sparkling week is drawn as the exciting past and the present that has changed intersect. Last year, he was invited to the Busan International Film Festival ‘On Screen’.


In the photos released by the production team that day, Ram Woo‘s spring-like visuals capture attention. Ram Woo’s warm and affectionate gaze as he looks somewhere. In particular, the fact that he is wearing Hee-wan‘s name tag on his chest arouses curiosity. Ram Woo, who took off his school uniform and returned as a grim reaper, catches the eye with his changed aura. Unlike his calm past, his smile has become brighter, adding to the curiosity about Ram Woo’s story.

Gong Myung, who chose ‘A Week Before I Die’ as his first drama after his discharge, plays his first love ‘Ram Woo’, who appears as a grim reaper. Ram Woo is a quiet and introverted model student whose only spectacle in life is playing board games with Hong-seok (played by Jung Gun-joo). However, he gets entangled with the busy ‘Hee-wan’ and is pulled from the shadows to the sun, leading to a hectic high school life.


Gong Myung said, “As soon as I read the script, my heart fluttered and Ram-woo and Hee-wan were so lovable,” and added, “It‘s a work that’s cute, lovable, and even sad.” About actress Kim Min-ha, who he worked with, he said, “She‘s such a colorful actress. She has a variety of faces, from lovely to dark. When I looked into actress Min-ha’s eyes on set, I had the amazing experience of believing in any situation.”

Episodes 1 and 2 of ‘A Week Before I Die’ will be released on Tving on April 3.
