Yoo In-young, Jung Kyeo-woon join Oh My Venus
[size=13.3333px]We’ve got our second leads for KBS’s new “health healing rom-com” Oh My Venus, otherwise known as the So Ji-sub & Shin Mina Show. Because yunno, we’re mostly in it for those two and their adorable chemistry. They’ll be joined by Yoo In-young (Mask) and Jung Kyeo-woon (Birth of a Beauty), who have signed on to play their rivals. Well if you have to have romantic rivals, Yoo In-young is tough to beat in the sassy, love-to-hate-so-much-you-love-her category. She’s awesome. [size=13.3333px]The new romantic comedy is about dieting, strangely enough, and features a heroine who loses her perfect figure and undergoes a diet challenge, falling in love with her trainer in the process. Shin Mina stars as a lawyer who was enviably beautiful in her youth, and has gained weight as an adult. So Ji-sub is a world-famous trainer to the stars who’s veiled in mystery (I don’t know why anyone would care enough about a trainer to think he’s mysterious, but let’s just go with it). As they work on the heroine’s physical transformation, they’ll heal each other’s internal wounds and fall in love. [size=13.3333px]Yoo In-young plays a lawyer who’s Shin Mina’s friend from school, and now her boss at their law firm. In their youth, Shin Mina had all the looks and Yoo In-young was overweight with zero self-confidence. Of course as adults they’ve swapped places and Yoo In-young is gorgeous and successful, and she’ll even steal Shin Mina’s boyfriend. [size=13.3333px]Jung Kyeo-woon costars as Shin Mina’s boyfriend of fifteen years. He’s a former national swimmer and now a public relations manager for a medical corporation, who also happens to be So Ji-sub’s childhood rival. Just coincidentally. He’s with the heroine mostly out of obligation after fifteen years together, so when he meets Yoo In-young, he leaves Shin Mina for her. Your loss, man. Maybe they figured there was no need for second lead syndrome when you have So Ji-sub and Shin Mina? [size=13.3333px]Oh My Venus follows Sassy Go Go and premieres November 16.
