There has been no confirmation about the adaptation or Kang Joon's involvement as of yet. However, the actor's entertainment company did slip a statement addressing the casting rumor, saying, "Although it is true that Seo Kang Joon has received an offer to appear in the drama version of 'Something About Us,' nothing has been decided yet."
