tvN’s upcoming drama “Lovely Runner” has shared a sneak peek of its first episode!
Based on a popular web novel and penned by “True Beauty” writer Lee Si Eun, “Lovely Runner” is a new time-slip romance drama that asks the question: “What would you do if you had the opportunity to save your ultimate bias?”
Kim Hye Yoon will star in the drama as Im Sol, a devoted fan who is devastated by the death of her favorite artist Ryu Sun Jae (played by Byun Woo Seok) and winds up going back in time to 2008 in order to save him.
The newly released preview for Episode 1 begins with flashes of Ryu Sun Jae at a sold-out concert, intercut with glimpses of his life tragically ending at a hospital. As he flatlines, Ryu Sun Jae says in voice-over, “Let’s try living today. Because the weather is so nice.”
The teaser then cuts to Im Sol, who wakes up to find herself in the year 2008. She immediately takes off running to find Sun Jae, calling out, “Sun Jae! I love you, Sun Jae!”
While the Ryu Sun Jae of 2008 is understandably confused by Im Sol’s behavior, she urges him, “Let’s live together. Okay? Let’s try living together!” Getting choked up with emotion, she goes on, “I can follow you to the ends of the earth. Even if you’re living in a different time, I’m going to transcend all of that and go to see you.”
“Lovely Runner” premieres on April 8 at 8:50 p.m. KST and will be available on Dramacool. Check out the new preview of Episode 1 below!
