Actor Joo Won is doing his best to portray his character perfectly.

While everyone is searching for who will portray the main character Nodame in the Korean remake of "Nodame Cantabile," Joo Won, who will be portraying Nodame's beau Shinichi Chiaki, is spending his time learning more about his character.

His management Sim Entertainment shared on the 15th, "Joo Won is learning how to conduct an orchestra, as well as play a piano and a violin, showing his determination in accurately portraying his musical genius character Shinichi Chiaki."

They added, "He is also looking forward to showing the audience a perfect performance, just like how he has done in his previous projects."

In related news, actress Shim Eun Kyung is the strongest candidate in becoming the main character Nodame, but her participation in the drama is yet to be confirmed by both her management and the production company.

"Nodame Cantabile" is about the eccentric piano prodigy Noda 'Nodame' Megumi who falls in love with the straightforward conducting student Shinichi Chiaki.

Should the drama push through, it is scheduled to begin filming on August, and premiere on October.
