Kim Ji Hun's Cameo Anchors Kim Yoo Jung in Dear X

Kim Ji Hun Joins "Dear X" As Former Baseball Player Who Becomes Kim You Jung's Moral Anchor

In the upcoming webtoon-based drama Dear X, Kim Ji Hun makes a special appearance as Choi Jung Ho, a former professional baseball player who now runs a cozy café. Living by kindness and integrity, Choi Jung Ho becomes the first genuine adult figure in the life of Baek Ah Jin, portrayed by Kim You Jung—an A-list star who hides a ruthless ambition beneath a flawless public image.

Their connection begins when Baek Ah Jin takes a part-time job at his café after graduating high school. While she climbs her way toward stardom, Choi Jung Ho’s steady warmth and sincere concern serve as a rare moral anchor, hinting at a quietly transformative bond amid her turbulent ascent.

Reflecting on the role, Kim Ji Hun shared that the shoot, though brief, was deeply rewarding. He noted extensive on-set conversations with director Lee Eung Bok to build a character that feels grounded and realistic, adding his hope that this early narrative touchpoint will draw viewers deeper into the story. He also expressed anticipation for the powerful impact of Kim You Jung’s performance as Baek Ah Jin.

Dear X will premiere its first four episodes on November 6 at 6 p.m. KST and will be available on global streaming. Expect a sharp character study, a morally charged rise-to-fame arc, and a quietly luminous cameo that could shift the emotional center of the series.

Keep an eye out for new teasers and scene stills—this one’s poised to spark conversation from its opening week.
