In a video interview with Elle Korea, Byeon Woo-Seok and Kim Hye-Yoon opened up about their first impressions of each other. Hye-Yoon revealed, “He was familiar. It didn’t feel like I was seeing him for the first time, but rather like a neighborhood brother I knew.” She continued, “My first impression and the image of him as a wise man have not changed.”

On the other hand, Byeon Woo-Seok said, “She smiled a lot and was pretty, so she was like a younger sibling from the neighborhood. I remember my first impression being bright, so I thought much of the energy was good. There were many enjoyable moments on set.”

Woo-Seok and Hye-Yoon have a height difference. While discussing how the difference was curbed in Lovely Runner, Byeon Woo-Seok said, “Apple boxes were always installed, or the camera was always very high.” Explaining how Hye-Yoon always wears high shoes, she shared while laughing, “I always had to wear high shoes. And sometimes I suddenly get surprised. Why is it so big?”

The audience are loving Im Sol’s innocence and Ryu Sun-Jae’s vigor and romantic side. Don’t forget to watch Lovely Runner on Monday and Tuesday on tvN at 8:50 p.m. KST.
