The new K-drama Soundtrack #2, a sequel to 2022's Soundtrack #1 starring Park Hyung-sik and Han So-hee, presents its main character Do Hyun-seo with the dilemma.
Hyun-seo (played by Keum Sae-rok) is a pianist who used to date vocalist Ji Su-ho (Noh Sang-hyun) in university. In the present day, she takes up part-time jobs and teaches piano to make ends meet.
Su-ho is the CEO of a company. He plans a collaboration with musician K (Sohn Jeong-hyuck), who wants Hyun-seo to join in.
AsiaOne asked the trio in a recent interview who they'd advise Hyun-seo to pick, if she were a real-life friend.
"Both of the guys are so handsome, so I was very happy while filming with them because they would all love me and care for me," Sae-rok, 31, said. "But if I were to talk to Hyun-seo, I would say that if a relationship ended, just leave it there.
"So I would tell her to go with the new face."
At this point, Sang-hyun — also known as Steve Noh — pretended to walk off the set in dismay, as Sae-rok and Jeong-hyuck laughed.
She added, however: "I do relate to Hyun-seo because she was in a relationship with Su-ho for six years. That means they have a lot of memories together and he's become part of her."
Who would the guys suggest?
"Of course me, Su-ho," Sang-hyun deadpanned.
Jeong-hyuck — who also goes by Demian as a singer-songwriter — disagreed: "I'm not a guy who dwells on past relationships, I would also tell her to find someone new."
Watch our E-Junkies video for the full interview to find out if the cast felt pressured to live up to the success of Soundtrack #1, and to hear Jeong-hyuck sing the soundtrack of his life right now — his own song Basement Boy.
Soundtrack #2 airs on Disney+.
