Actress Shin Hye Sun may soon grace television screens again with a new romantic drama, as she’s currently reviewing an offer to star in the upcoming series Secret Audit. Alongside her, actor Gong Myung is also in talks for the male lead role, sparking excitement among fans and K-drama watchers who are already imagining the on-screen chemistry this pairing could deliver. The potential collaboration between the two stars has added momentum to the early buzz surrounding the project.
Secret Audit offers a refreshing take on romance by blending office comedy with subtle emotional depth. The plot centers around Noh Ki Joon, a high-ranking audit officer known for his impeccable work and strong principles, who suddenly finds himself demoted and reassigned to a new, unconventional position—that of the company’s ‘morality manager.’ This unique role places him in charge of monitoring employee behavior, with a particular focus on personal relationships and romantic entanglements in the workplace. It’s a role that’s both uncomfortable and intrusive, adding layers of irony and humor to the storyline.
Opposite him is Joo In Ah, the female lead, who heads the audit department. Sharp-witted and mysterious, she’s skilled at uncovering secrets while concealing her own. Her job requires her to navigate the murky waters of corporate misconduct and inter-office affairs, making her both feared and respected within the company. If Shin Hye Sun accepts the role, viewers can expect a character who combines elegance with grit, all while hiding a complex past that might intersect with Noh Ki Joon’s trajectory. The romantic tension between these two guarded individuals promises a captivating dynamic filled with wit, conflict, and slow-burning affection.
At this stage, Secret Audit is still in the early stages of development, with casting not yet finalized and no official announcements regarding its broadcasting platform or release schedule. Production teams are still working through the initial phases, and fans will have to stay tuned for more updates on whether Shin Hye Sun and Gong Myung will officially join the project.
In the meantime, Shin Hye Sun remains as busy as ever. She is currently filming the Netflix original series The Art of Sarah, where she plays Kim Sa Ra, a cunning con artist who manufactures fake luxury brands to deceive the ultra-rich. Starring opposite Lee Jun Hyuk, who plays a determined investigator set on exposing her, the drama promises a mix of suspense, charm, and high-stakes deception. Even as she considers her next move in Secret Audit, Shin Hye Sun continues to prove her versatility with bold, challenging roles that keep both fans and critics intrigued.
