'Start-Up' AI assistant 'Young Sil' is voiced by 'Hotel del Luna' actor Yeo Jin Goo
Hooked on Netflix's latest hit Korean drama series "Start-Up?" Then you're probably familiar with the AI assistant "Young Sil."
Well, did you know that Young Sil is voiced by "Hotel del Luna" actor Yeo Jin Goo? That's according to a report on Koreaboo.
Young Sil will first appear inside Han Ji-pyeong's home, where he would yell at the gadget for giving him proper answers on his questions and rants about his personal life.
"Start-Up" and Jin Goo's last K-Drama "Hotel de Luna" are both under the helm of Korean director Oh Choong Hwan.
The K-drama “Start-Up” follows four young people who are chasing their dreams in a place called “Sand Box.”
Seo Dal Mi (Bae Suzy), whose dream is to become the Steve Jobs of Korea despite not having a fancy background, shows her passion and energy to reach her goal.
Meanwhile, Nam Do San (Nam, Joo Hyuk), the founder of Samsan Tech and a “Math genius” as a young boy, used to be the pride of his clan. He later meets Dal Mi, who mistakes him for her first love. He decides to work his way up with the hopes of turning misunderstanding to reality.
Han Ji Pyeong (Kim Seon Ho) is a senior investment manager at a venture capital company. He is known as “the Gordon Ramsay of investments,” given his sharp tongue and investment skills.
In Jae (Kang Han Na), on the other hand, is a young CEO with an attractive background that everyone wants: good education, beauty, and money. Despite all of this, however, she struggles to create her own success and be recognized for her own talent and skills.
“Start-Up” was launched on October 17 and premieres new episodes on Netflix every Saturday and Sunday. — Jannielyn Ann Bigtas/LA, GMA News
