Han Ji Min has shared her thoughts on her upcoming drama “Love Scout”!

“Love Scout” is a romance drama about Kang Ji Yoon (Han Ji Min), a CEO who is fantastic at her job but inept at everything else, and Yoo Eun Ho (Lee Jun Hyuk), her highly competent secretary who is great at not only his job but also childcare and housework.

Han Ji Min plays Kang Ji Yoon, the CEO of the headhunting firm Peoplez. She believes talent’s worth is measured by its financial value and holds herself to the same high standards, proving her worth through exceptional skill.

Han Ji Min describes her character Ji Yoon as someone who values work over people, to the point of appearing less human in the beginning. She shared, “With her charisma and cold demeanor as CEO, I think viewers will see a different kind of charm than what I’ve done in past roles.”

Han Ji Min carefully considered her character’s styling. She explained, “As a CEO, one might expect a glamorous look, but I felt a more realistic, practical style suits Ji Yoon better, without making her seem too sharp.”

The actress also shared her excitement about the much-anticipated romance with Lee Jun Hyuk. Han Ji Min shared, “Before ‘Love Scout,’ I had seen photos and videos made by fans who were thrilled about the possibility of us working together. So, when I heard the casting news, I thought, ‘They’ll be so happy.’”

She also shared her honest thoughts, saying, “I was personally curious about Lee Jun Hyuk’s acting in a romance genre. After ‘Love Scout,’ I look forward to seeing him in more romance projects.”
