Teasers for "Strongest Deliveryman"
2017-08-02 05:11 pmStrongest Deliveryman depicts the story of a bunch of deliverymen and women for a Chinese restaurant who have less than pennies in their pockets who have to face the harsh daily realities of working a thankless job in a competitive industry. But despite it all, they somehow keep their individual hopes and dreams alive.
Go Kyung-pyo takes the lead for the first time in the role of legendary delivery boy Choi Kang-soo, who is our passionate, loyal, and righteous hero. According to an interview with the actor, he even picked the unique permed hairstyle himself in order to fully immerse himself in this new persona and show off his character’s carefree personality.
His love interest/bickering partner will be played by Chae Soo-bin, whose character is no slouch in the delivery business herself. She’s well-known as one of the fastest delivery people in town, but her main focus is money: She wants to earn as much as she can to escape her unsustainable paycheck-to-paycheck situation.
Chae Soo-bin gives us an inside look at the lives of delivery part-timers in the newest teaser. She tells us that even though people might think the job is just riding around on a bike and giving people their food, they have no time to rest after preparing ingredients all morning, posting flyers all afternoon, then making their runs all night. However, they don’t make enough money to even support a meager lifestyle.
Chae Soo-bin rants about how some people have to spend almost all their hard-earned income on rent, while other people (like her landlord) don’t have to do anything but sit around and watch the cash flow in. Copy tells us, “It’s okay to make mistakes,” and we hear Go Kyung-pyo reassuring her, “Don’t worry. Just trust me.” The weary tone of the teaser brightens and the copy says, “So, let’s smile.” Go Kyung-pyo’s philosophy is that even in order to do kind acts, one must be shameless, and Chae Soo-bin replies admiringly that she’s never met someone as nosy and as righteous as him.

I'm still not exactly sure what this drama is about, but I like the leads (especially Chae Soo Bin) so I'll check it out. I thought Kim Sun Ho was adorable in Chief Kim so I'm happy he's the second lead.
