Actor Jeon Bae-soo made a special appearance in ‘Fooled in a Box’, adding flavor to the drama.

The drama ‘Fooled in a Box’ (written by Im Sang-choon, directed by Kim Won-seok, produced by Pan Entertainment and Baram Pictures) is a Netflix series that unfolds the adventurous lives of ‘the rebel girl’ Ae-soon, born in Jeju Island, and ‘the iron man’ Gwan-sik, over the course of four seasons.

While it is solidifying its popularity both domestically and internationally by evoking empathy across generations, Jeon Bae-soo has joined the cast of ‘Fooled in a Box’ as a colorful special guest.

In the third act released on the 21st, Jeon Bae-soo appears as ‘Song Young-sam’, the owner of the boarding house on a hill in Seoul where Geum-myeong (played by IU) comes to stay after returning from studying abroad in Japan in 1990. Ignoring Geum-myeong‘s request to put up a doorknob, and threatening to evict her without mercy if she broke the ironclad rule of ‘Absolutely no boyfriends’, Yeong-sam’s strict and picky personality was a perfect example.

On the other hand, Yeong-sam‘s daughter Bu-seon (played by Jung Yi-seo) continued her relationship with Chung-seop (played by Kim Seon-ho) to avoid her father’s eyes, and Geum-myeong‘s rented room ended up being strangely involved as the lover’s urgent hideout, which caused a huge commotion. Yeong-sam‘s sharp and stubborn gaze as he thoroughly searched through Geum-myeong’s closet where Chung-seop had secretly been hiding and urged him to come out added to the cheerful yet tense atmosphere.

In this way, Jeon Bae-soo made a special appearance as the annoying and strict boarding house owner in ‘I Got Fooled’, showing a short but powerful impact. Jeon Bae-soo has been an indispensable presence for writer Im Sang-choon, having worked with him in four works. He has been nicknamed ‘Im Sang-choon‘s persona’, having worked with him for a long time in the dramas ‘Baek-hee is Back’, ‘Fight for My Way’, ‘When the Camellia Blooms’, and ‘Fooled in a Box’.

Jeon Bae-soo has left a strong impression, proving his acting prowess as a trustworthy actor with his seasoned acting in each work. Expectations are growing for his continued success this year, following ‘Undercover High School’ and ‘Fooled in a Box’.

Meanwhile, ‘Fooled in a Box’, which Jeon Bae-soo made a special appearance in, is currently streaming exclusively on Netflix.
