Jin of BTS will be lending his voice to the theme song of upcoming tvN series Cliffhanger (also known as Jirisan).

“BTS’ Jin’s song for the Cliffhanger OST will be the main theme song for Cliffhanger, and you will be able to hear it starting from midway through the drama,” said AStory, as translated by Soompi. “We will announce the release date [for the song] at a separate time.”

Cliffhanger is set to unfold on Mount Jiri as Seo Yi-kang (played by Jeon Ji-hyun), who is the national park’s top ranger, and rookie ranger Kang Hyun-jo (played by Joo Ji-hoon) uncover the truth behind a grisly accident that occurred at the top of the mountain.

The drama was written by Kim Eun-hee, who helmed Netflix’s Kingdom, and Mr. Sunshine director Lee Eung-bok. The cast also includes Sung Dong-il (Hospital PlaylistPrison Playbook) and Oh Jung-se (It’s Okay Not To Be OkayThe Good Detective) in supporting roles.

Cliffhanger is set to premiere on October 23 on local cable network tvN, and internationally on streaming site iQIYI.
