Lovely Runner, based on a popular web novel and written by True Beauty writer Lee Si Eun, is a fresh time-slip romance drama that poses a captivating question: "What would you do if you could save your ultimate bias?" Kim Hye Yoon takes the lead in the series as Im Sol, a dedicated fan deeply affected by the passing of her favorite artist, Ryu Sun Jae, portrayed by Byeon Woo Seok. Im Sol finds herself going back to the year 2008 with the mission to prevent his tragic fate.

The buzz around the drama is high. Its heartwarming narrative, where a fan travels back in time to rescue her idol from a tragic fate, only to discover they were childhood sweethearts, has resonated deeply with audiences. 

Reports from the media reveal that it took three years to kick off production for the show. Despite high anticipation, casting proved to be a challenge, with many actors passing on the role, mistaking it for a simple fan-idol love story. Eventually, Byeon Woo Seok was chosen as the male lead, starting the production process. Despite the lengthy timeline and various scheduling conflicts that led to director changes, the drama overcame obstacles, with Byeon Woo Seok delivering a standout performance.

Even the special song for the series, Sonaki, found success, making its way onto MelOn Top 100 charts, despite originally being intended as a prop OST within the show's plot.
