Actor Chae Won-bin is stepping into her first-ever romantic comedy with ‘Sold Out on You,’ bringing a side of her we haven’t seen before―pure, lovable energy.
Premiering Wednesday, April 22 on SBS, the new Wednesday-Thursday series ‘Sold Out on You’ (written by Jin Seung-hee, directed by Ahn Jong-yeon) follows perfectionist farmer Matthew Lee (Ahn Hyo-seop) and sellout specialist show host Dam Ye-jin (Chae Won-bin) as their lives collide around the clock in a whirlwind romance.
Chae Won-bin plays Dam Ye-jin, a top home shopping host who’s hit 1 billion won in sales per minute and racked up a total of 1 trillion won in sales. She’s a hit-making ace who keeps selling out items with quick wit and irresistible charm―so devoted to work that she battles chronic insomnia.
Lately, Ye-jin’s biggest mission is persuading Matthew Lee, the only farmer cultivating ingredients for a major cosmetics brand. If she seals the deal, she could land a coveted weekend primetime slot. But cracking Matthew’s ironclad resolve won’t be easy―cue the relentless charge of bulldozer host Dam Ye-jin.
New stills released on the 24th capture Ye-jin’s all-out hustle. The moment her live broadcast wraps, she races to Deokpung Village where Matthew is staying, pleading and negotiating to win him over.
Another still shows Ye-jin flashing a confident OK sign, her satisfied smile warming viewers’ hearts. Can she finally break through Matthew’s defenses and claim her goal? Fans are eager to see how the sellout queen Dam Ye-jin writes her own success story.
This bold, big-city go-getter comes to life with extra spark thanks to Chae Won-bin’s lively performance. After proving her chops with a Baeksang Arts Awards Best New Actress win for the drama ‘Itorok Chinmilhan Baesinja,’ Chae takes on her first rom-com in ‘Sold Out on You,’ teasing a lovable transformation we haven’t seen from her before.
‘Sold Out on You,’ where sellout specialist show host Chae Won-bin brings heart-fluttering energy to every live show, premieres Wednesday, April 22 at 9 p.m. KST.
