Well this certainly seems like a really random combo that I never thought of before. K-ent is reporting that the casting for upcoming fantasy drama The Immortal (Korean title Bulgalsal which could refer to the mythical creature Bulgasalri as well) is taking shape.

Kwon Nara plays a woman who has been reincarnated multiple times and remembers all her past lives. It’s a love and revenge story as one male lead is after the female lead for causing him to turn into this immortal who must feast on human blood and is slowly losing his humanity. The drama is from the PD of Entourage and totally random aside was offered to Won Bin in 2019 to lure him out but he passed (as always).
