With the premiere just a few days away, KBS rom-com Do Do Sol Sol La La Sol has released new stills featuring lead actors Go Ara (Haechi) and Lee Jae-wook (I’ll Find You on a Beautiful Day).
The drama takes place in a countryside small town where our main characters are brought together. Although they initially becoming acquainted through strange circumstances in which Go Ara becomes indebted to Lee Jae-wook, they eventually find connection and comfort through music. And as they learn and grow to be better people, presumably, shenanigans plus romance ensues.
Go Ara takes on the role of pianist Gu La-la. Energetic and overflowing with positivity, she’s a survivor who looks at the glass half-full in any circumstance or challenge. Although a little odd, she’s also straight-forward in a what-you-see-is-what-you-get way and likes to take the simple approach. In a life turning-point she moves to a small town, opens a small piano academy called La La Land, and quickly becomes a member of the community.
Lee Jae-wook plays Sun Woo-joon, who is an expert of sorts on working part-time, having taken on all sorts of part-time gigs that were thrown at him over the years. Being an introvert, he has a guarded personality around others and hides many secrets. But those who know him well can see that he is actually quite affectionate and very warm-hearted.
Lee Jae-wook has been a favorite of mine since Search Query: WWW, so I’m happy to see him in his first lead role. For Go Ara, I was surprised to read that this is her first role in a traditional rom-com and looking back, I am impressed that she continues to push herself in different roles. Fingers and toes crossed this is a good one!
Written by Oh Ji-young (Shopping King Louis) and directed by PD Kim Min-kyung (Matrimonial Chaos), KBS’s next Wednesday-Thursday drama Do Do Sol Sol La La Sol premieres next week on October 7.
