Recently, SBS revealed new scenes of Ahn Hyo Seop from the upcoming romantic comedy Sold out for you. In the released images, the actor is dressed in simple, rustic clothes, fully embodying the look of a country farmer.
However, viewers may find something strangely out of place. What kind of farmer has such perfectly sculpted features, glowing skin, and an aura that easily stands out in any setting? The answer lies in his character. Although he appears to live a humble agricultural life, Ahn Hyo Seop plays Matthew Lee, CEO and chief researcher at a natural cosmetics company. His farm is also not ordinary, as it is the only place in the world to produce the so-called “miracle ingredients”.
Alongside him is up-and-coming actress Chae Won-bin, who plays the role of Dam Ye Jin, a high-class home shopping host known for her constant “worn out” creeping. She is very skilled at promoting a wide range of products, but her dedication to her work has led to severe chronic insomnia, adding another layer of depth to her character.
Sold out for you will premiere on April 22 and is already generating buzz as a promising pick for romantic comedy fans, especially with Ahn Hyo Seop, often dubbed a “Romantic Lead in Real Life”, at the center of the story.
Born in 1995, Ahn Hyo Seop started gaining widespread recognition around 2020 following the huge success of Doctor Romantic 2. He continued to build his reputation with Red sky lovers alongside Kim Yoo-jung. In 2022, he achieved another breakthrough success with Commercial proposalstarring Kim Se-jeong. The following year, Doctor Romantico 3 also received strong support from viewers.
Although its Netflix series He called you once starring Jeon Yeo-been drew mixed reactions due to comparisons to the original Taiwanese drama A day or a day starring Greg Hsu and Alice Ko, many first-time viewers still found it entertaining, as reflected in its solid rating on MyDramaList.
With his proven track record in romance-focused projects, Ahn Hyo Seop seems perfectly suited to the genre. And with Sold out for youhe is expected to play yet another memorable leading role.
