Just like her fellow co-stars in Boys Over Flowers, actress Lee Min Jung has been experiencing an upswing in her career after appearing in that drama and will soon be starring in her first female lead role in a SBS drama. Lee Min Jung has been cast as the female lead, Seo Jung In for new SBS weekend drama, Smile, You which will be aired on 10th October (tentatively), replacing Style. SBS said on the 5th, "After going through our shortlist, we decided on Lee Min Jung to be our female lead. The other leading and supporting roles are still being discussed at this point." It's understood that actor Ji Hyun Woo and actress Kim Min Sun are among those being considered. Smile, You is about a wealthy family who becomes penniless overnight and has to seek refuge at the house of their long serving chauffeur. Lee Min Jung plays the second daughter of the wealthy family and is someone who is self-centered and insensible. Lee Min Jung said, "I am very nervous because it's my first time leading a drama. But this is a good chance for me to improve myself as an actress, and I will work hard at it." The production team for this drama were the brains behind The Last Scandal of my Life, which starred the late Choi Jin Shil. The chauffeur will be played by Choi Bul Am.
