Byeon Woo Seok to make his K-drama comeback in a special appearance that has an old Strong Girl Namsoon connection.
Byeon Woo Seok is coming back to take another tvN K-drama by storm after ruling over TV ratings with his breakout role in Lovely Runner alongside Kim Hye Yoon.
The 32-year-old heartthrob will reportedly make a special appearance in the ongoing rom-com series No Gain No Love. On August 30, a South Korean media outlet seemingly confirmed his upcoming cameo in the series starring Shin Min A and Kim Young Dae. Subsequently, the No Gain No Love production team issued a statement, affirming the actor’s status and role in the drama, which came together all thanks to his previous professional engagement with director Kim Jung Sik.
“Byeon Woo Seok will be making a special appearance in ‘No Gain No Love,’” the officials announced. “This special appearance came about due to his connection with [the drama’s] director Kim Jung Sik.”

The 20th Century Girl star previously worked with him on JTBC’s Strong Girl Namsoon. Although the series received mixed reactions until its conclusion last November, K-drama fans primarily remembered it due to Woo Seok’s presence as the lead antagonist.
