After starring as a girl-crush nurse in the healing hospice drama “If You Wish Upon Me,” Choi Soo Young is back in a short-form romantic comedy with Yoon Bak!
I have been a fan of Sooyoung ever since her idol days as a Girls’ Generation member, and it’s also great seeing her dominating the acting industry as a fantastic actress. I’m also excited to see a whole new side of Yoon Bak in this show because I have always been impressed by his acting!
So, what exactly is going to happen in their new K-Drama, and why should we be anticipating it?
“Fanletter, Please” Synopsis
The upcoming 4-episode rom-com MBC drama “Fanletter, Please,” starring Choi Soo Young as a famous actress and Yoon Bak as a single father, follows the story of a single father who wishes to grant his sick daughter’s dream to hear from her favorite actress, a top Hallyu star who is facing the biggest crisis of her life in the entertainment world. The drama will depict what happens when a father writes a reply to his daughter while acting as the top Hallyu actress!
Meet The Characters
Choi Soo Young as Han Kang Hee
Choi Soo Young will play the role of top Hallyu actress, Han Kang Hee, who is facing the biggest crisis in her life in the entertainment industry because of a fan letter.
Like “Man Who Sets the Table” and “New Year Blues,” Sooyoung has starred in a wide range of dramas and films, and she has become a top idol actress. It will be exciting to witness Sooyoung in this new role.
Yoon Bak as Bang Jung Seok
Yoon Bak is set to play Bang Jung Seok, a lawyer and a warm and cheerful single father who is raising his sick daughter who is suffering from leukemia. Since his daughter is undergoing chemotherapy, he wants nothing more than to make her as happy as possible by granting her requests.
Yoon Bak is one of those actors that have received a lot of attention since he’s always a scene-stealer in his dramas! He has starred in “Beautiful Love, Wonderful Life” and “The Dog I Encountered,” which showed his versatility!
Shin Yeon Woo as Bang Yoo Na
Child actress Shin Yeon Woo will assume the role of Yoo Na, Bang Jung Seok’s sick daughter who is suffering from leukemia! She is a devoted admirer of the top actress Han Kang Hee.
What To Look Forward In The Drama?
4-Episode Comfort Drama
The premise and previews have convinced me that this will become my favorite type of drama. I love slice-of-life shows because the stories are realistic and relatable, and this one seems like it will really touch my heart. Dramas with reassuring, hug-inducing qualities are popular for a reason: they make viewers feel good.
AND as someone who is busy with school and life right now, I really love short-form dramas, thus, the fact that “Fanletter, Please” is a four-episode series is fantastic. It is short and sweet! No one wants a story that drags.
Drama That Will Depict Different Kinds of Love
passionate love to the adoration of an idol fan and the selfless devotion of a father to his kid, there are many types of love in this drama to explore.
Seeing the first teaser and poster, it looks like top actress Han Kang Hee and single father Bang Jung Seok have a past together (P.S. Bang Jung Seok is Han Kang Hee’s first love!) therefore, I am curious as to what actually transpired between the two, and whether or not this encounter will afford them a second chance at love.
The upcoming MBC romantic comedy-drama “Fanletter, Please” will premiere on November 18! It will take over “The Golden Spoon’s” timeslot and will be available for streaming on KOCOWA!
