Yoo In Na And Nam Goong Min Promise Plenty Of Chemistry In 'My Secret Hotel'

Yoo In Na and Nam Goong Min are preparing to co-star in the drama "My Secret Hotel" and it sounds like the two actors are looking forward to working together.

The actress, who recently starred as Jun Ji Hyun's frenemy in "You Who Came From The Stars," said that she was excited about working with both of her male co-stars.

"I was curious about the two male leads from the very beginning," she said at a press conference for "Secret Hotel." "I was satisfied when I heard they would be Jin Yi Han and Nam Goong Min. I've always liked these actors."

And she was not disappointed when she met them.

"After meeting them, I saw they personified their characters even better than I expected," said Yoo In Na.
When asked about his future co-stars Nam Goong Min only mentioned Yoo In Na.

"Her character needs to be very lovable," he said. "However Yoo In Na is already so lovable that she does not even need to act."

The actor, who was last seen in the comedy "I Need Romance 3" and in "We Got Married," was asked to compare Yoo In Na to his "We Got Married" virtual wife Hong Jin Young. Which actress did he find more lovable?

He cleverly said that in this role Yoo In Na was definitely more lovable.

But it was not just her new leading men that prompted Yoo In Na to take the role of a wedding planner with an ex and a current boyfriend. She also thought the script for the tvN comedy sounded like a lot of fun.

"I chose 'My Secret Hotel' after reading the script because I thought it sounded really fun," she said. "It was just as fun as when I read the script for 'You Who Came From The Stars,' if not more."

That's a promising recommendation as Yoo In Na has a good track record in choosing successful dramas. Before "You Who Came From The Stars" she played the leading role in "Queen Inhyun's Man" with co-star Ji Hyun Woo.

Their onscreen chemistry led to a real-life relationship but the couple has since broken up.

The chemistry between Yoo In Na and Nam Goong Min also sounds promising.

"My Secret Hotel" begins Aug. 18 and will run for a total of 16 episodes. It also stars Lee Young Eun, Choi Jung Won and Ha Yeon Joo. Hong Jong Chan is the director. Kim Do Hyun is the screenwriter.

I am enjoying this show...they bring out each other's childish side (though Hae Young is a bit of a kid anyway with those games) so I'm sure the misunderstanding could be easily resolved IF THEY COMMUNICATE

is the sec ep better than the first one? i mean, the pilot was alright but it only got interesting at the very end..

[imienazwisko.livejournal.com]

yes!
more details about the leads are shown plus the secondary characters too get their chance to shine. also the murder mystery is getting started.

[pbutterlion.livejournal.com]

thanks! im excited for this since yoo in na is the lead. i was a lil scared this drama would be mediocre idk

[imienazwisko.livejournal.com]

i'm bit worried about what happens after episode 4 because different scriptwriter takes over after the original one suddenly died. the new one did a terribad drama before so idk...
yoo in na is doing so well, i was surpriosed. i hope she so continues to shine ^^

[pbutterlion.livejournal.com]

ah wow.... so lets pray it wont just go bad after that.

[japataz.livejournal.com]

I saw the posters for this drama...was mildly curious. TVN has yet to let me down so I'll give the first 2 episodes a shot

[mangotae.livejournal.com]

I love it, I love it, I love it! I'm so glad I gave it chance/gave Yoo In Na a chance!

I love the plot, cause I'm a sucker for marriage/divorcee plots. I enjoy he two leads chemistry. Can't wait to see more and what this mystery is all about

[goldenrosalie.livejournal.com]

i still can't decide if i should continue. i watched first ep and... there were plenty of things i liked but 1) tvn has serious editing problem in most of their dramas but it was just ridic how draggy some scenes were; 2) Nam Goong Min basically recites the lines instead of acting plus... his acting is exactly the same as in INR3 and the roles aren't even /that/ similar.

[ohcrepe.livejournal.com]

I love Jin Yi-han and whodunit but is the murder a big part of the plot?

[imienazwisko.livejournal.com]

it's too early to say now cause so far they only shown what happend before it...

[love-quake.livejournal.com]

I was bored so I went and watched the two episodes.... I did not regret it!

[steelsigns.livejournal.com]

The lead couple, AH I KEPT GETTING FEELS EVEN THOUGH NOTHING WAS EVEN HAPPENING (basically just the scenes where they're thinking/talking to themselves but shows that they BLATANTLY still have feelings for the other)

[juhli.livejournal.com]

Hmmm, not convinced yet if I will continue watching this....I'm not really into the whole murder mystery.
