A Coming-of-Age Fantasy Featuring Wolf-Human Characters
On January 8, Netflix announced that it has confirmed the production of a new original series tentatively titled "Beauty in the Beast" and has cast Kim Minju, Lomon, and Moon Sangmin in leading roles.
This coming-of-age fantasy romance tells the story of Minsu, who harbors a secret that he can transform into a wolf, as he meets his college senior Haejun and Doha, a wolf boy.
Kim Minju will play Minsu, who has lived suppressing her emotions to avoid revealing her ability to transform into a wolf.

Moon Sangmin will portray Haejun, who appears sharp on the outside but is gentle in nature, while Lomon will play Doha, a free-spirited wolf-human.
