The stars of the show, Han Ji Hyun and Bae In Hyuk, are both a part of the squad and develop feelings for each other.

1. The adorable and talented Bae In Hyuk

Bae In Hyuk has come a long way in his career. Starting off in various web dramas, it didn’t take long for the actor to get lead roles. With his earlier memorable performances in web dramas such as “Triple Fling,” “XX,” and “Kiss Goblin,” Bae In Hyuk was very much sought after.

In “Cheer Up,” Bae In Hyuk plays Park Jung Woo, the captain of the cheerleading squad and one who is determined to make sure that it stays afloat. With the distractions of his first love, potential love interest, and a harrowing mystery that he is trying to unfold, this job is not easy.

Bae In Hyuk has the ability to show an intensity in the roles he takes on while also showing a soft side when it comes to his love interests. In “Cheer Up,” his various charms are easily seen, including his uncanny talent for energizing viewers with his cheers!
