"Lovephobia" revealed a solid supporting cast that will enhance the quality of the work.
Set to premiere in the second half of this year, LG U+ mobile TV original content "Lovephobia" (written by Lee Se-ryeong, directed by Wang Hye-ryeong) tells the story of a woman, the head of an AI dating app, and a man, a romance novelist, who fall in love while experiencing a series of events.
Previously, the leading lineup was announced, and reliable actors Lim Ji-eun and next-generation talents Lee Ji-hae, Kim Gi-nam, Han Kyu-min, Hwang Ha-jung, and Kim So-ha joined "Lovephobia," raising expectations even higher.
Lim Ji-eun, who has showcased distinguished acting skills in numerous works based on outstanding character portrayal, will play Yang Seon-ae, the mother of Yoon Bi-a (played by Yeon-woo). While exhausted from caring for her sick husband, Seon-ae coincidentally visits a library and begins to nurture her forgotten dream of becoming a writer. However, that is short-lived as an incident shakes the lives of Seon-ae and Bi-a, plunging the mother and daughter into a massive whirlwind. Attention is drawn to the heavy presence Lim Ji-eun will showcase through "Lovephobia" and the unique mother-daughter relationship with Yeon-woo.
Lee Ji-hae plays Song Ji-young, a writer belonging to the agency of Han Seon-ho (played by Kim Hyun-jin) and Han Baek-ho (played by Choi Byeong-chan). Ji-young challenges being a writer after dedicating herself to parenting due to an early marriage and childbirth. Lee Ji-hae, who has built a filmography across various genres such as drama, film, and theater, will capture viewers' attention with her role as a supporter who empowers the Seon-ho and Baek-ho brothers.
Kim Gi-nam will appear as Kim Kyung-tae, the oldest employee at Bi-a's company, It's You. Kyung-tae, a living witness in the dating app industry, sometimes draws disdain with his thoughtless remarks but is an irresistibly charming character. Interest is growing over how Kim Gi-nam will display chemistry with various characters through his wide acting spectrum shown in multiple works.
Han Kyu-min will play Kang San, the brain of It's You. Kang San, who has a blunt and quiet personality, earns the trust of his colleagues with his efficient handling of tasks. However, he is expected to amplify the tension of the plot as he becomes embroiled in an unexpected situation.
Hwang Ha-jung will appear as Hong Joo-yeon, the junior newcomer at It's You. Joining the company out of admiration for Bi-a, Joo-yeon reveals her "Bi-a fanatic" side. Despite her calm exterior, secrets hidden within Joo-yeon are slowly expected to be revealed, enhancing the immersion of the plot.
Lastly, Kim So-ha takes on the role of Shin Yoo-kyung, the youngest at It's You. Yoo-kyung, known for her bubbly charm, is the vitamin of the company and speaks her mind as an outspoken member of the MZ generation. It stirs interest in how Kim So-ha will portray the character of Yoo-kyung, who wins with honesty despite being a romantic person.
With various charms led by Yeon-woo and Kim Hyun-jin, supporting characters that will illuminate "Lovephobia" have joined LG U+ mobile TV original content "Lovephobia," set to arrive for viewers in the second half of this year.
