"Three Rivers", a new American TV drama starring heartthrob Daniel Henney, is set to air in the fall, according to the recently released CBS 2009-2010 primetime schedule.

The 29-year-old recently made his Hollywood debut in "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" opposite Hugh Jackman, and had appeared in the pilot of Three Rivers.

In the upcoming medical drama about organ transplants, the Korean-American actor will play the role of Dr. David Lee, "a womanizing surgical resident who's broken as many hearts as he's replaced", according to a statement released by the broadcaster. His co-stars include Alex O'Loughlin ("Moonlight") and Katherine Moenning ("The L Word"), Julia Ormond ("The Curious Case of Benjamin Button").

The former model rose to stardom here through the TV soap "My Lovely Samsoon" ("My Name is Kim Sam-soon") and romantic comedy "Seducing Mr. Perfect", and received critical acclaim for the film "My Father".

"Three Rivers" is scheduled to show at 8 p.m. Sundays on CBS.
