Upcoming romance drama “Lovely Runner” has unveiled new stills featuring Byun Woo Seok!

Based on a popular web novel, “Lovely Runner” is a new time-slip romance drama that unfolds as Im Sol (Kim Hye Yoon), a passionate fan devastated by the death of her favorite star Ryu Sun Jae (Byun Woo Seok), goes back in time to save him. The drama will be penned by Lee Si Eun, the writer of “True Beauty” and “Top Star U-Back.”

Byun Woo Seok plays the role of Korea’s top star Ryu Sun Jae, who is perfect in every way, while Kim Hye Yoon transforms into his passionate fan Im Sol who travels back in time to when he is 19 years old in order to change his fate.

The newly released stills feature 34-year-old idol Ryu Sun Jae and 19-year-old swimming genius Ryu Sun Jae. First, Ryu Sun Jae in his 30s showcases his unrivaled elegance as a member of the famous K-pop group Eclipse.

Teenager Ryu Sun Jae is a promising high school swimmer. The sight of a youthful Sun Jae in his school uniform creates deep contrast from his appearance as an idol.

The production team remarked, “Byun Woo Seok plans to reach the peak of his ‘persona of youth’ through the character of Ryu Sun Jae. As he is known as a hard-working [actor], Byun Woo Seok is putting in all of his effort into character analysis. Please look forward to his maximized charms.”
