This script read was an optimistic start for youth-fantasy love story, A Day Found by Chance. Based on a web comic series by the title of July Found by Chance, this drama features Kim Hye-yoon (SKY Castle) as a wealthy female high school student who rejects the fate decided for her and chooses to find her own love instead. It’s a story within a story as the main character realizes that she’s actually a side character in a comic book story and decides to change her own destiny. Think W—Two Worlds colliding with Heirs.
Director Kim Sang-hyub (The King Loves) began the script read with a couple words: “It’s an honor to be with such good people. I can feel the energy from all of our new young actor friends. I will also work hard to help support your talent and potential. I will try my best so that A Day Found by Chance will become a gem. Fighting!”
SF9’s Kim Ro-woon (Fox Bride Star) plays a handsome character with mysterious charms, and Lee Jae-wook (Memories of the Alhambra) plays the charismatic bad boy who is also Kim Hye-yoon’s fiance. According to reports, the bickering chemistry between the three main characters was off the charts so I’m looking forward to it already.
The supporting cast is as follows: APRIL’s Lee Na-eun has been cast as a poor, but cheerful girl who always looks on the bright side. Jung Geon-joo (The Tuna and the Dolphin) plays a mischievous playful character, and Kim Young-dae (Item) plays the center visual in pretty-boy group A3 within the drama.
Then we have some more experienced actors: Lee Tae-ri (Voice 3) who will have a comic role, veteran Eom Hyo-seop (That Psychometric Guy) who will lend a more serious edge to the drama, Choi Jin-ho (Item), and Ji Soo-won (Sound of Your Heart: Reboot)
MBC Wednesday-Thursday miniseries A Day Found by Chance, written by Song Ha-young and In Ji-hye, will start airing in September.
