The BL drama is an adaptation of the popular BL webtoon, “Jazz for Two.” The original webtoon became No. 1 on the BL webtoon chart on Lezhin Comics in 2017.

Its story follows the struggles and pressures of four high school students attending an arts school. There, they experience discovering their true selves and growing up through love and music. Hangyeom plays Seo Do-yoon, a student at Wooyeon Arts School. He is a playful drum player with an optimistic personality and is hiding a longtime secret crush.

“I was a bit nervous and scared to try acting for the first time, but I was able to film with great confidence and joy, thanks to all the help from Director Song Su-lim, staff members, and my colleague actors. You’ll be able to witness a new side of me in ‘Jazz for Two’ so please send a lot of love and support,” said Hangyeom.

“Jazz for Two” is directed by Song Su-lim, who also directed the BL drama “A Shoulder to Cry On,” which Omega X previously participated in composing and performing three original soundtracks for.

Along with Hangyeom, Jaehan from Omega X took part in making and singing the original soundtrack for the new drama.

“Jazz for Two” began airing in March 2024 with eight 30-minute episodes and can be watched on iQIYI and GagaOOLala.
