A Number of Stars Chosen To Narrate Web Novels, One of them is Chanyeol and Actress Lee Se Young. The Promotional Poster Has Been Released Displaying Both That Look Well Matched.
South Korea's entertainment world tries a new project in the form of audio cinema. A number of stars were chosen to narrate web novels such as radio plays where they acted through sound.
For the first project, there are three web novel titles that will be released as audio cinema. One of them paired EXO's Chanyeol and actress Lee Se Young as the main cast.
The web novel narrated by Chanyeol and Lee Se Young is titled "My Heart is Pounding" (literal title). Promotional posters have been released featuring both of them in school uniforms with swimming pool backgrounds.
"My Heart is Pounding" tells the story of Bae Su Gu, played by Chanyeol, a model student and class president who never failed to win first place. He was thought to be a pervert after giving a swimsuit to a student he had estimated during middle school. Su Gu indeed dreams of being a swimwear designer.
Su Gu entered high school where his father became vice-principal. He was never appreciated because his father's demands were too high. One day, he was caught red-handed by his homeroom teacher while taking photos of the school pool for collection. His actions will not be disputed on the condition that Su Gu must join the water polo team as a woman.
Chanyeol starred in several dramas with acting that did not cause controversy. While Lee Se Young is one of the actresses who is anticipated to see the record of her appearance in the drama. Their chemistry narrating the school-themed web novel is quite awaited by fans. But some deplored the fact the two would only compete acting through sound.
"Just looking at the poster I already like it. They match," commented the fans. "Though I want to see their chemistry firsthand, not just sound alone," added another fan. "It's regrettable because only their voices can be heard," concluded the other.
Meanwhile, two other audio cinemas pair Lee Je Hoon and Yoo In Na and Kim Dong Wook and Kang Sora. This project will be released starting June 18 through Naver Audioclip.
