Yoo In Na as Kim Sun(Sunny)

She doesn’t have money but she has looks that outshine her financial situation, and all men like her. But for the first time she meets a man who doesn’t lose to her, and that stirs her interest.
Yook Sung Jae as Yoo Duk Hwa
He is taking the role of a third-generation chaebol heir. The character is the eldest grandson of a family that runs a major corporation, so wealthy that “born with a golden spoon in his mouth” doesn’t suffice in describing his worth, and he’s a troublemaker with a blazing rebellious streak.
In the upcoming drama, Gong Yoo will take on the role of a goblin named Kim Jin, who wishes to end his immortal life. In order to end his eternal life, he must marry a human bride. As part of his curse, the goblin lives with a grim reaper (Lee Dong Wook) who has amnesia. Kim Go Eun plays a high school girl named Ji Eun Tak, who is the bride the goblin is in search of. Yoo In Na plays Sunny, a quirky chicken restaurant owner, and Yook Sung Jae plays a wealthy heir named Yoo Duk Hwa.
What's really fun about this pairing is that when Gong Yoo was asked in an interview which actress he would like to work with, he answered Kim Go Eun, citing that he thought she was charming and that he enjoyed her work in the film Chinatown.
This romantic, supernatural tvN drama will be Gong Yoo’s return to the small screen since his last drama four years ago, Big.
The cast was absorbed in the script for four hours and the production staff stated, “Writer Kim Eun Sook and producing director Lee Eung Bok took the lead. The script read-through was passionate and the actors all matched well together. We have confidence that we can make a production that will conclude 2016 with a flourish.”
