Hani is officially making her drama comeback.
According to industry sources on January 8th, Hani has been confirmed as the female lead of Love Is Coming (literal title), a new weekend drama set to air on KBS this August.
In the series, Hani plays Han Gyu Rim, the warm-hearted owner of a neighborhood side-dish shop. Known since childhood by the nickname “Captain Han,” she’s the type who shows up whenever someone’s in trouble—dropping everything to help make bad situations a little less painful, and celebrating others’ good news as if it were her own. An unapologetic meddler with a soft heart, Gyu Rim wears her emotions on her sleeve and can’t hide how she feels.
The project marks Hani’s first drama role in three years, following her 2023 Disney+ series Call It Love . It’s also her first appearance in a terrestrial network drama in six years since MBC’s XX in 2020—and notably, her first-ever KBS drama.
Love Is Coming is scheduled to premiere this August, following the conclusion of KBS’s upcoming weekend series Recipe For Love .
