The hit webcomic Marriage of Convenience is officially getting a live-action K-Drama adaptation, according to a report from Xportsnews. The series, which has gained widespread popularity in Korea and Japan, will star rising actors Lee Chul-woo and Jung Ye-na in the lead roles.
Jung Ye-na is set to portray the female lead, a young woman who, after an unhappy marriage, takes her own life—only to miraculously return to the past with a second chance to change her fate. Lee Chul-woo, known for his roles in Lovely Runners and Love is For Suckers, will play the male lead. Meanwhile, Jung Ye-na has previously appeared in Queen Woo and Gangnam B-Side.

Originally a Korean webnovel, Marriage of Convenience was later adapted into a webcomic. The story follows Bianca de Arno, a woman infamous for her reckless spending and selfish ways, while her husband, Count Zachary de Arno, is revered as a war hero. However, Bianca’s behavior stems from a tragic past, as she was married off as a child in a political alliance and suffered deeply in her first life. When she dies and wakes up in her 19-year-old body, she resolves to change her future—starting with how she treats her husband.
There is no further information available at this time, but fans can stay tuned for updates as production on the live-action adaptation progresses. Fans eager to experience Marriage of Convenience can read the webcomic now on Tapas.
