Ahn Bo-hyun and Claudia Kim have been cast in JTBC's upcoming period action romance drama, the cable network said Friday.

Set during the Goryeo Dynasty (918-1392), the drama — tentatively titled "Marble of God" — follows Baek-gyeol (Ahn), the commander of an elite escort unit. Kim will play Wang-hee, the youngest daughter of the king, who falls in love with Baek-gyeol.

Veteran actor Lee Sung-min will portray Choi Ku, the leader of Goryeo's special forces unit, who is appointed as a general to escort a sacred jewel believed to protect the nation and crosses paths with Baek-gyeol.

The new series is directed by Jung Dae-yoon, renowned for the 2022 hit drama "Reborn Rich." (Yonhap)
