Netflix confirmed production of “The Twilight Between Us” on November 12, with Gang Dong-won and Kim Go-eun in the lead roles. The period series combines romance and action, beginning with a marriage imposed by royal decree.
Kim Won-suk, known for “When Life Gives You Tangerines”, “My Mister” and “Signal”, will direct. Park Ji-eun, the writer behind “Queen of Tears” and “Crash Landing on You”, is writing the series. Yonhap reports that this will be the two actors’ first collaboration.
