4 K-Drama Second Leads Who Live In Stylish Homes
There’s nothing inferior about their digs… These spaces are equally full of personality and character
When we watch K-Dramas, we cheer hard for our oppas! Whether it's a childhood friend, schoolmate, neighbor or co-worker, the second lead also makes heads turn and hearts flutter. They’ve even made passionate fans who ardently profess their love for them by way of online debates and teams, declaring whose side they’re on. Of late, the most famous teams are those that supported Han Ji-pyeong (Kim Seon-ho) of Start-up, Team Good Boy, and Han Seo Jun (Hwang In Yeop) of True beauty. In these examples, it comes as no surprise that many have also fallen for the second lead.
Let’s take a look at their homes, as they also deserve to be considered as they represent part of their personality and are often places where key scenes for the development of the drama take place.

Han Ji-pyeong (Kim Seon-ho) from Start Up
In Start-up (Netflix, 2020) a suite of the Conrad Hotel (the first luxury brand Hilton Worldwide open in Seoul-South Korea) was used as the apartment of Han Ji-pyeong (Kim Seon-ho).

The materials used are mainly wood and marble that serve as ideal dividers of the various areas of the living room (bar, table, sofa, entrance).

In this space, we loved the Masters chairs by Philippe Stark and Eugeni Quitllet produced by Kartell are used as stand-out pieces.

The suite is very bright and among the predominant colors we have gray in various shades, while the living room is made warmer by the wooden and stone walls.

A strong touch of color instead is given by the pillows in very bright colors, an excellent solution to enliven the living room.

Han Seo Jun (Hwang In Yeop) from True Beauty
True Beauty (tvN,2020-21) is a romantic kdrama from Yaongyi's "Yeoshingangrim" webtoon. Student Im Ju-kyung (Moon Ga-young) is defined by everyone as an ugly girl, tired of the constant offenses of classmates, decides to improve her plight by learning to use make-up. She's so good that she manages to look like another person. So much so that she's defined by students as a goddess when wearing makeup. At school, she met two very different Han Seo Jun (Hwang In Yeop) and Lee Su Ho (Cha Eun Woon) boys who fell in love with her, but only one of them knows her secret. In a famous scene Han Seo Jun (Hwang In Yeop) sings looking in the mirror without noticing the presence of Im Ju-kyung.

Han Seo Jun's room has some basic and functional décor elements including the wardrobe of the same color as the walls and no handles.

A great solution for small spaces, when a monotone color scheme can make the space feel roomier. A touch of color is given by the combination of simple chests of drawers and boxes to store various items in a practical and orderly way. In this tight space, every inch of real estate had to be used: the window will acts as a ledge to hold picture frames and various objects.

In fact, there are works of art and photos that enrich the environment as well as a large and comfortable sofa. In the living room that communicates with the kitchen there are many light points with lamps, spotlights and lights on the ground that create dark light making the environment relaxing.
