About SOUL MATE

Against the backdrops of Berlin, Seoul and Tokyo, Soul Mate follows two lonely young men, Ryu and Johan, who seem inexplicably drawn to each other. As their lives intersect, their souls become deeply intertwined, and they begin to look toward the future with everything they have. Over the course of 10 years, the series traces their beautiful and emotional journey as they become once-in-a-lifetime "soulmates." As they both encourage one another and even clash fiercely at times, they start to image a lifetogether, only for fate to twist their paths in painful ways.

Ryu is played by Hayato Isomura, a versatile actor who has proven adept in everything from mainstream blockbusters to projects with strong auctorial voices, this marks his first leading role in a Netflix production. Johan is portrayed by Ok Taec-yeon, a member of the globally popular boy band 2PM, who is also active as an actor, both within his home country of Korea and abroad. He crafted his physique perfectly into that of a boxer and powerfully embodies Johan, a character who, in stark contrast to Ryu, has lived through a harsh environment.
