Yoon Jin-seo joins cast of Runaway
by javabeans
Oh, I like this: Yoon Jin-seo has been added to the cast of Runaway, playing an offbeat and lively detective. She’ll be chasing the two leads, spy Rain and mysterious operative Lee Na-young, which means she’ll be working a lot with Lee Jung-jin, another of the pair’s pursuers who is her superior.
PD Kwak Jung-hwan explained that he chose Yoon for her ability to transform herself. That’s certainly true, as she has played a variety of different roles in her previous projects such as Return of Iljimae, Secret Lovers, and Beastie Boys. She’s got a refreshing quality to her that can be sexy but also innocent, depending on the role, and a lovely aura.
Interestingly, one article describes this drama as a “romantic comedy spy melodrama” — the first time I’ve heard rom-com applied to the show. I’ve got nothing against it, although it makes me think of writer Chun’s other spy drama (the Civil Servant remake)…
Runaway premieres in September on KBS.

I loved her in Return of Illjimae. Great addition to the cast esp. in light of the fact that Daniel Henney is joining the cast. I wonder if she and LJJ will have a romantic storyline since it seems like DH, Rain and LNY will be in a love triangle.
And the rom-com kind of throws me off guard, I was thinking this would be similar in tone to Time Between Dog and Wolf. I was hoping for something more serious.

Aw, I wish she was the main actress.
I have to admit, I've never seen any of Lee Na-young's dramas or films so I'm not familiar with her acting abilities, but I really like Yoon Jin-seo.
