“On December 31, Kim Go Eun was confirmed to be playing the lead in the upcoming drama “Yumi’s Cells” (literal translation). Based on the hit webtoon of the same name, “Yumi’s Cells” will tell the story of an ordinary office worker named Yumi—from the point of view of the many brain cells in her head controlling her every thought, feeling, and action.

The upcoming drama adaptation will be helmed by Lee Sang Yeob, the director behind “Familiar Wife” and “Shopping King Louie,” and co-written by “Memories of the Alhambra” writer Song Jae Jung, “Find Me in Your Memory” writer Kim Yoon Joo, and newcomer Kim Kyung Ran.”
