Actor Song Seung-heon will be returning to the small screen for the first time in five years through the brand new MBC drama series 'East of Eden'. Song, who is currently busy with the drama shoot, recently told reporters that he definitely feels the pressure of everyone's expectations over his comeback as he had been away for so long. At the same time, the hunky actor added that he is excited and confident about his upcoming role in the new drama series.

'East of Eden' is an epic 50-part drama series that begins in a mining village in the 1960s. The drama stars some of Korea's most celebrated actors including Lee Mi-sook, Yoo Dong-geun, Jo Min-ki, Han Ji-hye, Lee Da-hae, Yoon Jeong-hoon, Lee Yeon-hee and Park Hae-ji.
