The year 2018 gave us some really good dramas, which included Something in the Rain. The jTBC drama gained a lot of attention in its home country and abroad. Generally, people assume K-dramas are just fluffy romances with beautiful leads. But Something in the Rain shifted this perspective. It had a very good-looking cast but also a very mature storyline. In case you are wondering who were the cast members in the drama, we will give you all the details. Also, the cast of Something in the Rain is a very popular one, and you may wonder what they are upto now. Well, we will be covering that too.
Something in the Rain is a noona romance. It means when a younger guy falls for an older woman. Our female protagonist, Yoon Jin-ah, has a seemingly perfect life while she works at a big coffee chain. She has a long-term boyfriend, whom she intends to marry. Although, if you look closely, she is living a pretty bland life, that’s not evident to her. At least, not in the few minutes of the first episode until she discovers something. She catches her boyfriend cheating on her and breaks up with him. Plus, at the workplace, sexual harassment from seniors is rampant. At this moment, Jin-ah’s best friend’s brother, Seo Jun-hui, comes back to Korea. He starts working in the same building as Jin-ah, and as they go on lunch and dinner dates, they start falling for each other.
It’s a very heartfelt drama that makes you cry and makes you feel frustrated, but at the end of every episode, it leaves you with a fuzzy feeling. Let’s find out what is the cast of Something in the Rain upto now.
Something In The Rain Cast:
Son Ye-jin
Son Ye-jin is our female lead, Jin-ah. Ye-jin has been in the drama industry for a long time, and this happens to be one of her finest roles. She was a perfect pick for the role of Jin-ah. Jin-ah is uncertain about a lot of things, mostly because she thinks she’s only getting older by the day. Hence, she doesn’t chill even for a second. Well, that is until Jun-hui comes along and makes her realize the importance of being young at heart. Jin-ah’s character was afraid of rebelling, but after falling in love for real with Jun-hui, everything changes as she fights back for her relationship.
Son Ye-jin perfectly portrayed a woman who is dealing with hardships both in her personal life and at work. Society created all these hardships, and Jin-ah eventually had enough of it. After Something in the Rain, Son Ye-jin starred in the worldwide sensation Crash Landing on You with Hyun Bin, whom she ended up marrying much recently. She is currently basking in marital bliss and was also seen in the drama Thirty-Nine.
Jung Hae-in
He is the OG chocolaty boy whom we all love. Something in the Rain happens to be Hae-in’s first drama as a male lead. But in no way does it feel that way. His mature acting and the way he expresses his emotions through his eyes captivated us all. He is a game developer who works in the same building as Jin-ah. The more he gets to know her, the more he falls for her. His portrayal of a sensitive and sweet boyfriend won all of our hearts, having us all hoping to find a boy like him. Jung Hae-in naturally looks kind. Hence, he was able to portray Jun-hui real well. Also, his chemistry with Son Ye-jin was totally off the charts.
Further, Jung hae-in has since starred in dramas like One Spring Night, D.P., and Snowdrop with Blackpink’s Jisoo. All the dramas have been acclaimed, and D.P. is even confirmed to have a second season. It’s newsworthy rejoicing as more Hae-in content is on our way.
Jang So-yeon
Jang So-yeon plays the role of Seo Kyung-seon, Jun-hui’s elder sister. She is best friends with Jin-ah and supports her no matter what. The relationship between Jun-hui and Jin-ah is hidden from her initially, and it hurts her that her best friend didn’t share this fact with her. However, they reconcile eventually but have a small period of bittersweet feelings with each other.
So-yeon has further appeared in the drama Crash Landing on You with Son Ye-jin and recently in the drama Forecasting Love and Weather.
Lee Joo-young
The short-haired beauty had a small but impactful role as a cast member of Something In the Rain. She plays the role of Lee Ye-eun, a colleague of Jin-ah. Ye-eun is very sweet and supportive without any biases. She is the youngest, but she has a good friendship with Jin-ah. Every cast and character of Something in the Rain has an impactful role to play.
Lee Too-young has appeared in critically acclaimed dramas like Itaewon Class and the 2022 Cannes awards nominated movie Broker.
Wi Ha-jun
Wi ha-jun plays the role of Yoon Seung-ho, who is Jin-ah’s younger brother and also friends with Jun-hui. This happens to be one of the earlier dramas of the actor before he gained much popularity with Squid Game. His character is not the main one, but the character development in the show is pretty impressive. From being a conservative brother to a supportive one, it was great watching him, even if the role was small.
