Actor Hong Soo-hyun stepped forward to prevent Lomon's relegation.
Hong Soo-hyun left a strong impression as Hong Yeon-su, the agent of Kang Si-yeol (played by Lomon), in SBS's Friday-Saturday drama No Tail to Tell (written by Park Chan-young · Jo Ah-young, directed by Kim Jeong-kwon, planned by StudioS, produced by Binge Works · Mog Film), struggling to save Kang Si-yeol, who was in danger of being relegated to the second division.
In that episode, Hong Yeon-su became indignant when she learned that the club Kang Si-yeol belongs to, Thames FC, would be relegated to the second division. Hong Yeon-su urgently connected a video conference with the chairman of Thames FC, and with cool judgment discerned that the club had hidden the relegation and proceeded with a contract renewal. In particular, in this process, Hong Soo-hyun raised the drama's immersion by delivering fluent English lines befitting a professional agent and projecting an intellectual charisma.
Meanwhile, her "fixer" instincts shone even amid the ensuing negotiation difficulties. Hong Yeon-su, who traveled to the United Kingdom herself, when she faced difficulties in negotiations even spoke in French on calls and sought solutions in various directions such as transfers to other leagues. By chance encountering the chairman of Thames FC, she grumbled to herself for a moment, then immediately displayed seasoned skill by flashing a business smile without missing the opportunity. Hong Soo-hyun, who finds breakthroughs in any crisis, completed a more three-dimensional portrayal of the fixer by delivering a flawless performance and perfectly handling even French.
When Kang Si-yeol was able to transfer safely thanks to Eun-ho (played by Kim Hyeyoon)'s magic, Hong Yeon-su's childlike joy created warmth. The familial bond that cared for and wanted to protect Kang Si-yeol beyond a simple business relationship left a deep impression on viewers. Expectations are growing about how the strong relationship between Hong Yeon-su and Kang Si-yeol will play out in the stories to come.
Meanwhile, viewers can see Hong Soo-hyun's new transformation in the SBS Friday-Saturday drama No Tail to Tell, which airs every Friday and Saturday at 9:50 p.m.
