Main cast and characters of No Gain No Love
Shin Min Ah stars as Son Hae Young, a woman who detests losing money under any circumstances. At her company, employees who are married, pregnant, or have children are favored, as the business model benefits from revenue generated from private education expenses. Additionally, a new task force has been established under the CEO’s direct control, and no unmarried woman has ever joined. Faced with the risk of missing out on a promotion, Hae Young devises a plan for a fake marriage to secure her position.
Kim Young Dae plays Kim Ji Wook, a night shift worker at a convenience store known as a civic-minded and righteous figure in his neighborhood. When Son Hae Young, a customer with whom he feels particularly mismatched, proposes a fake marriage, Ji Wook reluctantly agrees to the role as a side job. A kindhearted individual who can’t ignore someone in need, Ji Wook initially conceals his handsome features behind thick-framed glasses and a shaggy hairstyle. However, he undergoes a makeover to adopt a more polished appearance for his role as Hae Young’s fake groom.
Lee Sang Yi stars as Bok Gyu Hyun, a CEO and third-generation chaebol who is skeptical about the concept of fated love. As the president of Kkulbee Education, where Son Hae Young is employed, Gyu Hyun inadvertently discovers a web novel written by Nam Ja Yeon (played by Han Ji Hyun). Intrigued, he begins to leave comments on the novel while concealing his true identity.
Han Ji Hyun portrays Nam Ja Yeon, a writer known by her pen name Yeon Bo Ra, famous for her R-rated romance web novels. Ja Yeon lives with Son Hae Young, who is like family to her. One day, Ja Yeon finds herself unexpectedly entangled with Son Hae Young’s boss, Bok Gyu Hyun.
Spice Up Our Love, the spin-off of No Gain No Love, is a romance fantasy drama that follows Nam Ja Yeon (Han Ji Hyun), an R-rated romance web novelist who suddenly finds herself transformed into Seo Yeon Seo, the female protagonist of her own novel. In this new reality, she becomes entangled in an unpredictable romance with the novel’s male lead, Kang Ha Joon (Lee Sang Yi).
