Lee Jae Wook is set to lead Netflix’s upcoming horror-fantasy series Honey Pot Project (working title). This marks yet another daring move in the actor’s rising career. His agency, Log Studio, confirmed the casting on April 4, 2025, sending fans into a frenzy of anticipation.
This 8-episode series promises a unique blend of black comedy, eerie horror, and supernatural intrigue. Helmed by director Kim Da Min, known for the indie favourite Makgeolli Will Tell You, the show is produced by Shortcake, the creative force behind Chinatown and Netflix’s critically acclaimed D.P. With its offbeat tone, Honey Pot Project is expected to deliver both scares and sardonic wit in equal measure.

While Lee Jae Wook’s exact role remains under wraps, speculation is already running wild. Will he play a reluctant hero, a charming trickster, or someone cloaked in a darker mystery? Given his past performances, from the soulful wizard in Alchemy of Souls to his recent romantic turns, fans are confident he’ll bring depth and nuance to whichever character he inhabits.
Lee Jae Wook is currently showing his lighter side on the tvN variety show Sister’s Delivery Service 2, where fans get a glimpse of his off-screen charm. Moreover, his other highly anticipated Netflix project, Tangeum, is also slated for release later this year.
With a bold premise and a team known for pushing creative boundaries, Honey Pot Project could become one of Netflix’s standout K-content releases of 2025.
