The TVING original series 'Yumi's Cells Season 3' revealed a strong lineup that will awaken dormant romantic cells.
In a hotly anticipated return after 3 years, the TVING original series 'Yumi's Cells Season 3' (directed by Lee Sang-yeob, scripted by Song Jae-jung and Kim Kyung-ran, provided by TVING, produced by Studio Dragon, MeriCau, and Studio N) depicts Yumi (played by Kim Goeun), who has returned as a star writer, and her cells, who still only know Yumi, growing once again and telling a story of love as always in this cell-stimulating, relatable romance.
'Yumi's Cells,' which received praise for its innovative attempt to combine live-action and 3D animation, was produced in seasons and has been loved for a long time. Yumi's everyday life and love stories, portrayed in an ordinary yet witty, realistic yet delightful touch, have brought excitement and laughter to many, earning the praise of being a 'life drama.' Meanwhile, Kim Goeun's return, completing the equation 'Yumi = Kim Goeun,' and the addition of the trending young actor Kim Jae-won has heated up online discussions, proving its continual popularity. Additionally, the reunion of trusted director Lee Sang-yeob and writers Song Jae-jung and Kim Kyung-ran has heightened expectations.
Above all, the synergy of trusted actors who will be responsible for pleasant laughter and relatable reality, as well as excitement, draws attention. Returning as 'Yumi' after 3 years, Kim Goeun is expected to captivate viewers with her dynamic acting once again. Previously, Yumi challenged a new dream of becoming a 'writer' and found great success as a romance novel author who captures readers' hearts. However, love remains difficult for her. With the cell village seemingly on a temporary break and lacking in exciting events, the appearance of Suneok (played by Kim Jae-won) brings about a fresh change.
The man who will shake up Yumi's cell village, 'Suneok,' is played by trending young actor Kim Jae-won. With a sweet face but a surprisingly straightforward personality, he serves as the new production director at Julie Publishing, possessing unexpected charm. While it seems that only 'rational cells' will dominate, Suneok unexpectedly faces challenges dealing with Yumi, the writer whose 'emotion cells' are in turmoil. There is great curiosity about his activities, which will showcase the heart-quaking chemistry with Kim Goeun.
Meanwhile, Jeon Seok-ho also returns as 'Ahn Dae-yong,' the editor-in-chief at Julie Publishing, who is the benefactor that introduced Yumi as an author and is married to Lee Da (played by Miram). He leads a busy life, moving around from place to place. The fresh faces newly joining this season also attract attention. The uniquely charming Choi Daniel is to cast as 'Kim Joo-ho,' the representative author at Julie Publishing who is overseen by Suneok, and he is a powerfully extroverted individual. Kim Joo-ho is a new character not present in the original work, expected to elevate the drama's fun with charms opposite to those of Suneok.
Meanwhile, the lively assistant writer 'Baek Na-hee' is played by Jo Hye-jung, showcasing her bubbly energy. Miram, who continues with this season, once again portrays 'Lee Da,' the friend who shares fantastic chemistry with Yumi, adding to the excitement. Additionally, Park Se-in transforms into Yumi's production director 'Jang PD,' adding realism to Yumi's writer life.
The happy news of special appearances by actors from seasons 1 and 2 also catches the eye. Sung Ji-roo returns as 'Kim Man-sik,' the father who only thinks of Yumi anytime and anywhere, while Lee Yu-bi reprises her role as the irresistibly charming 'Lee Rubi.' Their involvement, which cannot be overlooked in 'Yumi's Cells,' is already generating anticipation.
Meanwhile, the TVING original series 'Yumi's Cells Season 3' will be released on TVING in 2026.
