Character Descriptions and Four-minute Trailer for Spy Myung Wol

Spy Myung Wol with Eric and Han Ye Seul premieres next week and I’m thrilled to have something that straddles multiple genres – a comedy screwball romance with spy hijinks. The only thing I worry about is execution, since everything else really strikes my fancy. Looking forward to Monday and a new K-drama to spazz about if it turns out to be a winner. Have a look at the character descriptions and watch the four-minute trailer below.

Eric as Hallyu star Kang Woo

“Who are you really?!”

A world famous Hallyu star who endured grueling training as a newbie and has finally established himself in the industry. Because he went through so much to achieve his success, he expects perfection in everything. Initially he’s simply curious about Myung Wol, a person whose real identity is unclear, but quickly his emotions are inexplicably engaged and increasing rapidly.

Han Ye Seul as a Member of the Hallyu Attack Group Han Myung Wol

“Execute this man……NO, marry him!”

A beautiful spy who has pure muscle from training and combat. Someone whose heart will beat faster when she encounters something that she is curious about, even her blood will boil. Has the duel weakness of curiousity and impetuousness.

When engaging in a covert operation in Singapore, she accidentally encounters Hallyu star Kang Woo. To regain her honor she infiltrates South Korea, but then finds herself embroiled in an absurd mission to marry a top Hallyu star.

Lee Jin Wook as Spy and Lieutenant Choi Ryu

“If Comrade Han Myung Wol’s deadly weakness is the tendency to act first without thinking, then my weakness is her.”

As Myung Wol’s surpervising officer, he knows her desire to succeed, but has always taken a firm approach with her. He arrives in South Korea with Myung Wol, armed with different missions. Even in his dedication to his mission, he still wants to protect Myung Wol. He handles every matter with efficiency and confidence, except when matters concern Myung Wol, and then he finds himself unable to be objective. Watching Myung Wol constantly hovering around Kang Woo hits a raw nerve in him.

Jang Hee Jin as Heiress to a Hotel Fortune Joo In Ah

“To possess that man, how much will it cost?”

Raised in a life of luxury without monetary worries, everything she wants she can have, except when it comes to love. She has the same star power as Hallyu star Kang Woo, but Kang Woo only treats her with coldness, and she works hard to gain his esteem. Regardless, she thinks that only she understands the real Kang Woo. Except when the unknown entity that is Myung Wol suddenly appears in their world….

Ooh, cute, cute, cute!! Hopefully, this won’t disappoint. I’m also concerned about the execution, but that cast is solid enough that they might be able to pull it off. We shall see!

*To regain her honor she infiltrates South Korea, but then finds herself embroiled in an absurd mission to marry a top Hallyu star.

that just sealed the deal for me. i’m definitely watching this! i know that my personal weakness in a plot is the term contract. contract marriages, like fullhouse, lie to me; contract girlfriend in my name is kim sam soon; contract cousin like in my girl. just the mere idea that they are gonna fake a relationship and know that they’re bound to break it excites me. waah.. monday and tuesdays will be fun again since lie to me has ended. this will really ease my LTM withdrawal symptoms. i really hope you’ll make recaps for this… please… please…….. please….. thanks koala… ^^

  let me just add on to what i said… i hate the second female lead already… take her out of the story after the 1st episode… hahaha… hmmmm… i must say that i am already having doubts if i’ll ship with eric.. the description of the second lead is killing me… waaah… i think i’ll be having second lead syndrome again…
  
  *“If Comrade Han Myung Wol’s deadly weakness is the tendency to act first without thinking, then my weakness is her.”
  
  well, it’s too early to say right… but im positive that i’ll be hooked to this… ^^

OMG, Eric-oppa and YuSeul-unni seem to have sparks flying. This looks like it’s going to be a great action, comedy and romance drama. And just to hear Eric and YuSeul speak in english is great.

I am TOTALLY on board! First off, it’s Eric (no explanation needed) and secondly, the premise/plot is brilliant! There’s just so much you can do with the story…you’d think this was a Hong Sisters concoction.

And thank you Han Ye Seul and Eric for actually being bilingual!
