Kwon Hyun-bin being the first confirmed cast member for "The World of My 17" is a bit of a surprise, as he is a man, and thus will not be playing any of the four lead characters. In continuity, he will be playing Jeong Woo-kyeong, who is a member of an idol group. In real life Kwon Hyun-bin is known for being in the boy group JBJ. Though he has acted before in "Borg Mom" and "Temporary Idols", he was just playing himself, rather than an existing unrelated character.
