Further on the Lovely Runner
With a finale that has been praised as one of the most romantic and flawless in K-drama history, Lovely Runner came to an end in May. Given the amazing story of selfless love and redemption between Im Sol (brilliantly portrayed by Kim Hye Yoon) and Ryu Sun Jae (wonderfully played by Byeon Woo Seok), which captivated viewers worldwide, its lasting impact makes sense.
Lovely Runner is more than just a time travel narrative; it’s also a touching story about first loves. One of the biggest fans of a beloved celebrity is taken back to their high school days after the celebrity’s tragic death. She takes advantage of this chance, determined to change his fate and protect him. Im Sol views Ryu Sun Jae as an idol who is out of her reach. She is, however, his unfulfilled first love. In the fantastical romance Beautiful Runner, two souls who have been separated by time eventually cross paths.
