The popular TVING drama 'Yumi's Cells' heralded Season 2 of the show.

While a new character to appear in 'Yumi's Cells Season 2' is being decided, fans are interested in who will take on the character Shin Soon Rok, who will become Yumi's final husband in the original webtoon.

Shin Soon Rok is Yumi's company partner, wearing glasses at work and looking perfect, but outside the company, he is a 'homemaker' who boasts a 'simple and innocent' charm.

In particular, Shin Soon Rok takes off his glasses outside the company, revealing his full-fledged appearance. Who will play the role of Shin Soon Rok, who has both an intelligent image and cute charm? 

Among the fans, we gathered six actors who said they fit well with the character of 'Yumi's Cells' in one place.

Gong Myung

Actor Gong Myung caught the eye by showing his older brothers and sisters full of aegyo in the tvN entertainment program 'House on Wheels 3'.

Gong Myung is mentioned the most as an actor who suits Shin Soon Rok in 'Yumi's Cells'.

He excites female fans by showing off his 'big dog beauty' with his white skin and innocent image.

In addition, Gong Myung showed a different image by appearing in public figures and dramas while wearing glasses.

Nam Joo Hyuk

In particular, in the tvN drama 'Startup', Nam Joo Hyuk played a character who pursues perfection in his work as a developer, but cannot speak properly in front of the person he likes.

Although he is a single person, Nam Joo Hyuk's appearance, which changed depending on 'what he is doing' and 'with whom he is with', reminded us of the Shin Soon Rok in 'Yumi's Cells'.

Seo Kang Joon

Seo Kang Joon, an actor with handsome features and extraordinary physical abilities, is also one of the characters who get along very well with Shin Soon Rok, the male lead in 'Yumi's Cells'.

Seo Kang Joon has already perfectly portrayed the main character, Cha In-ho, in the tvN drama 'Cheese in the Trap', which is also based on a webtoon.

In the play, he perfectly showed the two sides of being rude, but becoming a charming person in front of the woman he likes.

In addition, there are many people who are looking forward to the combination of Seo Kang Joon and Kim Go Eun again as they showed a fantastic breathing with Kim Go Eun at the time.

Unlike his chic image, Lee Do Hyun often shows a lovely side by showing a charming smile when he smiles.

In addition, he boasts of his demonic, low-pitched voice, and is gaining so much popularity that he has risen to the ranks of 'popular actors'.

In response, netizens raised their voices saying that Shin Soon Rok in 'Yumi's Cells' would go well with Lee Do Hyun as one of the features was an attractive voice.

Chae Jong Hyeop

Actor Chae Jong Hyeop, who played the pure 'potato bachelor' Yang Hyuk in the JTBC drama 'Nevertheless'.

Chae Jong Hyeop took on the role of a pure-hearted man who delicately takes care of the female lead Han So Hee in 'Nevertheless,' and perfectly digested it.

When he smiled brightly, even the dimples fit into his face, capturing the hearts of female fans.

Ahn Hyo Seop

Ahn Hyo Seop is exuding a cute charm with a warm visual and an expression full of 'puppy'.

He is like a cartoon character in his daily life. Ahn Hyo Seop often shows off his mischievous side by posting playful pictures through his Instagram.

Lee Kyung Gyu's star-making influence goes beyond Kang Ho Dong, as Hong Jin Kyung shares how he helped her kickstart her career.

On the April 24 episode of KBS 2TV’s Problem Child in House, legendary comedian Lee Kyung Gyu appeared as a guest—and a touching story from the past was revealed.

Hong Jin Kyung surprised everyone when she said, “He’s the teacher for all of us. Personally, he’s the one who helped me debut.” She even pinned a carnation flower on his chest to show her gratitude.

Lee Kyung Gyu smiled and said, “I still remember when Hong Jin Kyung walked up the stairs onto the stage for the first time.”

Hong Jin Kyung then shared her journey to becoming a star. “I joined a supermodel contest, but only the top 3 winners were noticed in broadcasting. I got a special prize, so I had no chance to be on TV."

She continued, "At first, I was just a backup for a show. But somehow, I became a regular the next week. I never knew why."

She added, "I thought the PD gave me a shot. But then one day, I randomly met Kyung Gyu sunbae, and he told me it was actually him who recommended me.”

Kim Sook asked with a smile, “So Kyung Gyu sunbae said nice things about you to the PD?”

Lee Kyung Gyu playfully replied, “Don’t say it in such a childish way,” making everyone laugh.

He then explained more seriously, “The show was Scoop TV Entertainment, and I was pretty much the main MC. When Jin Kyung showed up, I saw her determination and passion."

He added, "While others didn’t seem serious, she really stood out. I told the PD, ‘She seems unique. Why not keep her on the show?’”

Kim Jong Kook chimed in, “So if the main MC said that, doesn’t that mean you basically got her in?”

That made Lee Kyung Gyu happy. He grinned and replied, “Exactly! You speak well. Be like him!”

He added, “After that, Jin Kyung’s career took off. She started doing shows with Lee Young Ja and just kept going.”

Fans are now calling Lee Kyung Gyu not only a top MC, but also a quiet star-maker behind the scenes!
