Other than as his voice actor turn as Saja Boy leader Jinu in last summer’s mega hit Netflix animated movie K-pop Demon Hunters I’ve been wondering where Ahn Hyo Seob went. It’s been three years since his last K-drama the underwhelming A Time Called You but now he’s back this month with SBS rom-com Sold Out on You with female lead Chae Won Bin. This is going to be a test of his ability to hard carry a drama since she’s not that well known despite being in supporting and a few lead roles, and also weekday drama ratings remain in single digits mostly in K-drama land. He plays a prickly rich farm owner and she’s the successful host of a television shopping program and theirs is the type of opposites attract healing romance set up that works if they have strong chemistry and a compelling growth narrative. The drama premieres April 22nd on SBS.
