“The remake seeks to engage viewers by honoring the original film while presenting a story that resonates with contemporary sensibilities, thereby crafting a distinct charm and ambiance through its mood, soundtrack and imagery,” the film's production company, Hive Media Corp, said in a press release.

“Secret: Untold Melody” will be Shin’s first film since her debut in 2018. The actor is well known for her appearance in Netflix’s series “The Glory” (2022-23), in which she played the younger version of Park Yeon-jin.

The fantasy romance will also be Doh’s first in over a year since the sci-fi film “The Moon” (2023) and Won’s first in over three years since her last film, “A Year-End Medley,” which premiered in December 2021.
