Fans of Hotel Del Luna, get ready for a new twist—Netflix is bringing a male-centered version of the 2019 hit, and it’s already creating buzz. Titled Grand Galaxy (working title), this upcoming drama by the famed Hong Sisters is being positioned as the “male version” of Hotel Del Luna, and the casting choices are already sparking interest.
Originally led by IU and Yeo Jin Goo, Hotel Del Luna followed a high-end hotelier who ends up managing a supernatural hotel run by a mysterious and captivating owner. This time, the story is expected to flip perspectives, with a male lead at the center of the drama, exploring new dynamics and themes in the same ghostly hotel world.
In January, actress Go Min Si was reportedly offered a role in Grand Galaxy and is said to be positively reviewing the offer. She’s no stranger to intense roles, and viewers are already curious about the kind of chemistry she’ll bring to this new story. Adding to the anticipation, actor Lee Do Hyun has also been offered the male lead and is currently considering it.
What makes this possible pairing even more exciting is their history together. Lee Do Hyun and Go Min Si previously played siblings in Sweet Home (2020), then turned romantic in Youth of May (2021). Their potential reunion in a fantasy setting like Grand Galaxy could bring a new kind of on-screen magic, and fans are watching closely.
Although casting is still in progress, the show is already slated for a release no earlier than 2026. With the Hong Sisters at the helm and Netflix backing the project as an original series, expectations are naturally high.
Interestingly, the end of Hotel Del Luna had hinted at a possible follow-up. Kim Soo Hyun made a brief cameo as the mysterious new owner of “Hotel Blue Moon,” which sparked fan theories that he might lead the next chapter in the series. However, with the new direction and fresh cast, Grand Galaxy seems to be carving its own path rather than picking up where the original left off.
For now, all eyes are on Lee Do Hyun and Go Min Si’s decisions. If both sign on, it’ll be a reunion worth waiting for—especially in a world where romance meets the supernatural once again.
