With plenty of laughs and delightful romance promised, viewers are in for a treat. Discover why “Wedding Impossible” is a must-watch below!
1. Rising Actors
The cast of “Wedding Impossible” is brimming with talented and emerging actors. Jun Jong-seo garnered attention with her breakthrough performance in the film “Burning,” earning her the Best New Performer Award from the Asian Film Critics Association Awards. She further solidified her talent by winning the Best Actress in Film Award at the 57th Baeksang Arts Awards for her role in “The Call.” Moon Sang-min is also a recipient of accolades, having been awarded the Best New Actor in TV at the 59th Baeksang Arts Awards. Kim Do-wan has been steadily carving out his career since 2017 and is a scene-stealer to watch out for. Bae Yoon-kyung initially gained recognition through the dating reality series “Heart Signal” and has since been recognized for her diverse roles.
2. Interesting Characters
Each of the main characters brings a unique and intriguing dimension to the story. Jun Jong-seo, portraying Na A-jung, describes her character as “a talented actress awaiting the right opportunity to shine. Despite being relatively unknown, her potential is undeniable.” Moon Sang-min, in his portrayal of Lee Ji-han, likens his character to “a loyal retriever, steadfast in his ambition to secure his older brother’s position as the heir to the family conglomerate.” Kim Do-wan offers insights into his character Lee Do-han, revealing, “A-jung is the sole confidant of my character’s secret. She embodies unwavering loyalty and friendship.” Lastly, Bae Yoon-kyung embodies Yoon Chae-won, a character “successful in every aspect of life except for love. Having experienced marriage and divorce, she now navigates the complexities of unrequited affection.”
3. Rom-Com With Modern & Traditional Vibes
Whether your preference leans towards traditional K-drama tropes or more contemporary storylines, “Wedding Impossible” offers the best of both worlds by seamlessly blending classic rom-com elements with modern and distinctive K-drama flavors. While some moments may evoke nostalgia for scenes from classic K-drama rom-coms of the 2000s, the storyline remains fresh and relatable to contemporary issues.
For instance, while it’s customary for the mother-in-law to oppose a union in typical K-dramas, in this case, it’s the brother-in-law who attempts to thwart their nuptials. Director Kwon Young-il remarked, “The dynamic between the two characters is unique, making the series stand out as a different kind of rom-com.” Despite these differences, “Wedding Impossible” promises to deliver some traditional rom-com moments that fans can eagerly anticipate.
Jun Jong-seo further elaborated, stating, “With the abundance of genre romances nowadays, I believe this series will exude a nostalgic aroma reminiscent of classic dramas from the past.”
4. Great Chemistry
When the chemistry among the cast extends off-screen, it undoubtedly shines through on-screen. Viewers can anticipate witnessing the close relationships between the actors portrayed both in the series and behind the scenes. Jun Jong-seo expressed, “We had such a blast, and it was incredibly fulfilling. I believe everyone will recognize our set as the most enjoyable and happiest they’ve ever experienced. Even now, we stay in touch daily, even when it’s not work-related. We’ve grown so close, and I believe the drama will reflect this bond.” Bae Yoon-kyung also reminisced about her previous collaboration with director Kwon Young-il on the series “My Unfamiliar Family” and expressed delight at working together once again.
5. Fun & Healing
Apart from the enjoyable elements of the series, there’s also a profound healing message that will deeply resonate with audiences. Director Kwon Young-il reflected, “In life, we often find ourselves resorting to lies, controlling our expressions, and concealing our emotions. Each character, driven by their own motives, navigates life while wearing a mask to some extent. As these characters intersect, communicate, and embark on a journey of self-discovery.” Jun Jong-seo chimed in, “These characters mirror individuals you encounter in your everyday life. As you follow their journey in the drama, you’ll find yourself rooting for each one of them. It’s a delightful and therapeutic drama, and our on-screen chemistry adds to the entertainment.”
