"Life" will be the latest work of director Kim Won Suk and writer Im Sang Choon ("Fight For My Way"). It will tell the story of the life of a girl and a boy in four seasons. 

The series will reportedly premiere in 2023.

If IU confirms her casting, this will be her comeback to the small screen after the hit 2019 drama "Hotel del Luna." This year, she starred in the film "Broker" with Song Kang Ho, Kang Dong Won, Bae Doo Na, and Lee Joo Young

IU is also part of the upcoming movie "Dream" alongside Park Seo Joon, Lee Hyun Woo, Ko Chang Seok, Kim Jong Soo, and Jung Seung Kil
