Actor Hong Soo-hyun once again proved her solid acting chops by appearing as a capable football player agent, demonstrating strong acting depth.
Hong Soo-hyun appears in the SBS Friday-Saturday drama No Tail to Tell (written by Park Chan-young and Jo Ah-young, directed by Kim Jung-kwon) as Hong Yeon-su, a ninth-year partner who discovered Kang Si-yeol (Lomon)'s talent and potential and volunteered to be his agent, adding to the drama's immersion.
No Tail to Tell is a rescue fantasy romance about an MZ-era gumiho who does not want to become human and a self-loving human whose clumsy conflicts lead to unexpected salvation.
In that episode, Hong Soo-hyun first appears nine years earlier as the football association head of team, a "maxed-out ability" figure who first noticed Kang Si-yeol's talent and potential. Hong Yeon-su drew attention by handing him a business card and saying, "Prepare well and watch. You know? This is an important opportunity for player Kang Si-yeol," to the player who was selected for the youth national team instead of his friend.
Then, nine years later, Hong Yeon-su, now Kang Si-yeol's agent, showed a natural charm with a greatly deepened intimacy. Hong Yeon-su displayed "real sibling chemistry," exchanging quick banter with Kang Si-yeol, saying, "I'm really proud of myself for being your agent until now." Hong Soo-hyun's natural acting, which conveyed the passage of nine years convincingly from their first meeting, increased immersion.
Particularly, Hong Soo-hyun naturally conveyed the professional details of being an agent and the image of a career woman. She firmly supported the flow of the drama by flawlessly portraying the character's seniority and relationships through line tone, eye contact and speech. Her balanced acting, shifting between urban aura and everyday performance, once again proved that Hong Soo-hyun is an actor you can trust to watch.
