Star-Studded Cast & Characters
Lee Minho leads the stellar ensemble as Gong Ryong, a brilliant but somewhat out-of-place obstetrician-gynecologist who uses his wealth and connections to fulfill his space dreams. His character brings an intriguing fish-out-of-water element to the space station, promising humorous and heartfelt moments as he adjusts to zero gravity.
The incomparable Gong Hyo-jin stars opposite Lee as Commander Eve Kim, a no-nonsense leader who finds herself challenged by Gong Ryong’s presence. Their dynamic promises to crackle with tension and possible romance as these two strong personalities orbit each other in close quarters.
Rounding out the main cast is the scene-stealing Oh Jung-se as the delightfully pompous Kang Kang-su, whose self-proclaimed expertise in all things space-related is sure to provide both comedy and conflict. The ensemble also features beloved actors Han Ji-eun and Kim Joo-hun in roles set to add depth to this unique narrative.
