Fans on theqoo, an online community, have been moved by a behind-the-scenes revelation from the drama “Lovely Runner”. They highlighted Byun Woo-seok’s performance where Ryu Seon-jae delivers a teary reaction after an interaction with Sol’s grandmother.
The original script did not include Ryu Seon-jae shedding tears; however, Byun Woo-seok was so engulfed in emotion that he naturally began to cry. The director decided to keep this unplanned moment in the final cut.
Byun Woo-seok later revealed in a video clip from “You Quiz on the Block” that the scene evoked memories of his own late grandmother, with whom he was very close.
