Im Yoon-ah and Ahn Bo-hyun Tease Wild Transformations in 'Pretty Crazy': 'Graceful by Day, Unstoppable by Night'

Im Yoon-ah and Ahn Bo-hyun are set to surprise audiences with their unexpected sides in the new film 'Pretty Crazy', sparking curiosity and excitement for the movie.

On the 13th, Im Yoon-ah and Ahn Bo-hyun appeared as guests on SBS PowerFM's '12 O'Clock with Joo Hyun-young', where they discussed their roles in 'Pretty Crazy' (directed by Lee Sang-geun).

Released today, 'Pretty Crazy' is a supernatural comedy that follows Gil-gu (played by Ahn Bo-hyun), an unemployed young man who gets caught up in a bizarre part-time job: keeping watch over Seon-ji (Im Yoon-ah), who transforms into a devil every night at dawn.

Alongside Im Yoon-ah and Ahn Bo-hyun, Joo Hyun-young appears as Seon-ji's Gen Z cousin Ara, and Sung Dong-il takes on the role of Seon-ji's father, Jang-soo.




Im Yoon-ah, reuniting for the second time with director Lee Sang-geun after their hit film 'EXIT' (2019), shared, "I was really curious and excited to see how the director would craft this story. It didn't take me long to decide to join the project."

She added, "Director Lee has a gift for capturing emotions and moments that feel truly real and relatable, as if they're happening right around us. Our movie will make you smile with harmless laughter, but you'll also find yourself empathizing and getting swept up in the characters' emotions."

Ahn Bo-hyun agreed, saying, "It's definitely a harmless film. There's plenty of laughter, but there are also deeper meanings hidden within those laughs."

'With 'Pretty Crazy', Im Yoon-ah and Ahn Bo-hyun are working together for the first time.




Introducing her character, Im Yoon-ah explained, "Seon-ji runs a bakery during the day, but at dawn, she awakens as a high-ranking devil."

When asked if Seon-ji's style resembled the trendy 'Teto-nyeo' look, she replied, "If you watch the film, you'll see that her styling fits perfectly with the context. You'll understand when you see it."

Ahn Bo-hyun, who witnessed both Seon-ji's 'day' and 'night' personas on set, described, "Daytime Seon-ji is pure and graceful, like an 'I' type in MBTI terms. But nighttime Seon-ji is the complete opposite—full of wild, unpredictable energy, like someone who's downed a couple bottles of makgeolli (Korean rice wine). It honestly felt like I was acting with two completely different people."



Ahn Bo-hyun also introduced his own character, saying, "I'm grateful that so many viewers have already expressed their love for Gil-gu. I worried a lot about how to portray him, but both Yoon-ah and Hyun-young told me I really embodied Gil-gu, which made me happy."

Im Yoon-ah chimed in with a laugh, "Gil-gu has this gentle, puppy-like vibe. When you watch the movie, Ahn Bo-hyun will come across as adorable." She expressed confidence in their on-screen chemistry.

'12 O'Clock with Joo Hyun-young' airs every day from Monday to Sunday, 12 PM to 2 PM KST.
