Yet, one actor starred in the first episode for only a few minutes but captured the hearts of netizens after making a return to the Strong Woman series.
While he played multiple roles in Strong Woman Do Bong Soon, Kim Won Hae made a return in the first episode of the new series. As expected, he once again felt the wrath of the Soon women as Nam Soon’s mother showed that she wasn’t someone to mess with.
In particular, netizens loved how, just like the OG series, Kim Won Hae’s teeth felt the real strength of the female characters.
Of course, they were remembering the moment in Strong Woman Do Bong Soon where Kim Won Hae was hospitalized because of Bong Soon and, in particular, the fact he had lost his teeth because of her strength.
After the episode aired, netizens couldn’t hide their excitement at seeing the cameo. While the show is full of new characters and a completely different storyline, netizens loved how a well-loved actor made a return and the parallels to his character in the original series.
