How about the harmony between Kim Myung-soo and Lee Yu-young? ‘Treat Me Cruelly’ scheduled to premiere in May
On the 28th, Kim Myung-soo and Lee Yu-young were cast as lead actors in KBS2's Monday-Tuesday drama 'Treat Me Cruelly'.
'Treat Me Cruelly' is a very polite romance drama about Shin Yun-bok, an MZ scholar with a sense of humanity and wisdom, and Kim Hong-do, a woman who is tired of a life of being treated rudely. It is based on a webtoon of the same name.
Kim Myung-soo and Lee Yu-young depict a delightful love story. The romance between a 21st century Confucian man who seems to have come out of a historical drama and a very realistic office worker creates unique interest.
In the play, Kim Myung-soo plays the role of Shin Yun-bok, a scholar of the 21st century with intellectual and moral character who is the successor to Seongsan Village, which has preserved the appearance of the Joseon Dynasty. Shin Yun-bok has an unusual job as a cultural property restitution specialist, but he is also an MZ youth who pursues freedom enough to run away from home to follow his dreams. Kim Myung-soo's acting transformation, which portrays the unexpected charm of Shin Yun-bok, is attracting attention.
Next, Lee Yoo-young plays the role of Kim Hong-do, a contract assistant on the design team of a small and medium-sized domestic clothing brand and the head of the family of the poor girl. He is predicted to play a very realistic character who grits his teeth and endures all kinds of rude treatment from his superiors at work. It stimulates curiosity about how Kim Hong-do, who rushes forward while living in a daunting reality with a chance to overturn it, will play the character.
What I'm looking forward to more than anything is the chemistry between the two actors. Kim Myung-soo will play Shin Yun-bok, an impregnable man with a pus in his tight clothes, and Lee Yu-young will completely transform into Kim Hong-do, a fastball flirting master, giving both laughter and excitement to viewers through Tiki Taka.
Kim Myung-soo, born in 1992, said, "I'm excited to meet a work that has a fresh setting and is even enjoyable. I will do my best to prepare to provide viewers with a variety of fun experiences." Lee Yoo-young, born in 1989, said, "I'm doing everything I can in romantic comedies. I'm working hard to make a drama that makes people happy, so it's something to look forward to."
‘Treat Me Cruelly’ is scheduled to air for the first time in May.
