The script book for the popular drama Lovely Runner will include 10 extra pages showing Sun-jae and Im-sol's life after marriage. The drama, starring Byeon Woo-seok and Kim Hye-yoon, was the top buzzworthy drama for four weeks.
Booklog announced on Instagram on May 16, 2024, that they will publish the script book, responding to fans' demand. Written by Lee Si-eun-II, the script book will be available in South Korea on July 22.
Fans to get extra ten pages and glimpses of Ryu Sun-jae and Im-sol's lives after their wedding in the script book
The last episode ended with Sun-jae proposing to Im-sol under the cherry blossoms after multiple failed attempts and left fans eager to know how their life after marriage would be. While fans barely expected it, on June 26, Booklog teased that the book is to have an additional ten pages showcasing the married lives of Ryu Sun-jae and Im-sol, the beloved pair from Lovely Runner.
Booklog's Instagram post features a page from the Lovely Runner script book showing "Newlyweds house" in the corner, hinting at the leads' post-marriage life. These new scenes were added after deciding to publish the book and are included at the end of volume 2.
The screenplay book will include interviews with authors and actors Kim Hye-yoon and Byeon Woo-seok. Additionally, English translations of the new scenes will be provided for readers.
Lovely Runner Script book to have still-cut images from the drama
On June 21, Booklog Company announced that there would still be still-cut scenes from the drama in the pages of the two-volume script of Lovely Runner, which the book business is publishing. For this commentary, Lee Si-eun herself chose one still-cut picture from each of the sixteen episodes of the drama.
While the male lead in the drama was presented in a more enigmatic manner in the online book adaptation, it was not the case in the TV drama. These mentioned pages of the book are entirely in Korean. Despite Booklog Company's earlier assertion that English would be included in some sections of the book, an English translation is not included. The extra ten pages, however, are expected to have English translations.
The Lovely Runner script book would not be available in any pop-up store. However, fans can pre-order them online.
