Chun Woo-hee is tvN’s Delightfully Deceitful con artist

by missvictrix

tvN’s upcoming drama Delightfully Deceitful (previously Beneficial Fraud) has been dropping stills like hot cakes, getting us familiar with our two leads: Chun Woo-hee (Be Melodramatic) and Kim Dong-wook (King of Pigs).

Chun Woo-hee stars as the con artist Lee Ro-woom — our not-so-perfect heroine who finds herself in the crosshairs of the law. Her skillful defense attorney is Han Mu-young (Kim Dong-wook), but rather than the typical cut-throat money-loving lawyer archetype we see in dramaland so much, he’s incredibly empathetic towards his clients… to the point where he needs therapy to keep his emotional boundaries in check.

Our second lead roles are equally interesting, with Yoon Park (Please Send a Fan Letter) as Ro-woom’s probation officer, and Sojin (Bora! Deborah) as our hero’s kind-hearted psychiatrist.

The characters sound wonderfully complex already, but just because no drama is complete without the thread of revenge running through it, we’re led to believe that our heroine’s schemes and scams are to carry out just that.

Directed by Lee Soo-hyun (Shooting Stars, Find Me in Your Memory) with scripts written by Han Woo-joo, Delightfully Deceitful premieres next month on May 29.

I like how it sounds. Gonna try it for both the leads and their characterizations. Dong wook as a shy careful defense attorney sounds delightful!

Can't wait! The characters sound a bit different and interesting. It'd be more typical if the guy was the criminal while the girl was the caring lawyer.
