Casting has been confirmed for a new drama on JTBC called Private Life. And the line-up now includes actors, Go Kyung-pyo (Cross), Kim Hyo-jin (Mary Stayed Out All Night), and SNSD’s Seohyun (Time).

The drama is about a group of con artists who make an irreversible mistake and they find themselves somehow involved in the private, hidden affairs of state. This puts them head-to-head in a battle of schemes against a large business conglomerate business and they must scramble to use all the tools at their disposal in order to fight and win.

Seohyun takes on the role of Cha Joo-eun, who ultimately chose a swindler’s life due to difficult personal circumstances and a desire to survive.

Go Kyung-pyo plays the part of Lee Jung-hwan. A mysterious character who tries to befriend Seohyun, he’s also playing a double agent as he’s pretending to be the development team manager at the SL Group conglomerate.

Kim Hyo-jin plays Jung Bok-gi, a con artist from a different class. The targets of her cons are other scammers and she performed a job on Seohyun’s family in the past. She fled to China shortly afterwards in order to conceal her whereabouts and is now starting to re-enter society.

Coincidentally, this will be a comeback for all three actors. Kim Hyo-jin’s last movie appearance was in 2016 and it’s been a long 10 years since her last Korean drama, Mary Stayed Out All Night. For Go Kyung-pyo, this will be his first project after completing his army service. And Seohyun was recently in a 2-episode drama special (Hello Dracula), but her last full-length drama was 2 years ago.

JTBC’s upcoming drama Private Life is currently being planned to air in the latter half of 2020.

Take away from above article - There is a drama named Hello Dracula.

Summary states that (courtesy to mydramalist)
"It is Growth story of people who live in Block Z who have to face the matters in life that they just want to avoid"

I do not see any Dracula in summary and I have not watched show. If anyone has seen this drama please enlighten me about significance of Dracula to the story. (I would definitely watch it if there is Dracula in drama)

Nope, it's just a metaphor of facing your fears. But the drama itself gained an incredible attention (trending #1 on various web portals during its broadcast) due to its humane LGBT theme. Seohyun's character is a lesbian who longed for her mother's acceptance of her sexuality.
