Alright, drama lovers, clear your watchlist and prep your group chats, because Kim Bum joined the cast of Today Was Also Sold Out, and this series is shaping up to be an absolute scene-stealer.

Kim Bum will step into the role of Seo Eric, an effortlessly cool executive director at a major French cosmetics brand. His backstory? Oh, just casually growing up in France after his mom married into elite, billionaire-level circles. Raised with luxury, power, and European vibes — Seo Eric isn’t just stylish, he’s complicated. And if anyone can bring that icy-on-the-outside, complex-on-the-inside energy, it’s Kim Bum.

But wait — it gets better. He’ll be starring alongside Ahn Hyo Seop and Chae Won Bin. That’s right. One screen. Three leads. One spicy rom-com. The internet isn’t ready.


Here's a Quick Recap of Today Was Also Sold Out

Ahn Hyo Seop plays Matthew Lee, a busy guy who does three jobs at once. He farms rare ingredients and runs a natural skincare company. He seems to have it all together, but he’s hiding a big secret.

Chae Won Bin plays Dam Ye Jin, a top home shopping host who always sells out products. She looks perfect on camera, but she struggles with insomnia and feels a lot of pressure. She’s all about glamour, but also dealing with stress. This will be the first time Ahn Hyo Seop and Chae Won Bin share the screen space as leads.

Now that Kim Bum’s Seo Eric is in the mix, get ready for tension, sparks, drama, and a bit of chaos. The energy feels like luxury meets reality, and fans are already hooked.
