Kim Min Seok will take on the role of Baek Kwang Nam, a job seeker living next door to Shin Seo Ri, Lee Se Hee will play Shin Seo Ri’s rival Yoon Ji Hyo, and Chae Seo An will play Mochang Group’s third daughter Mo Tae Hee. Furthermore, Yoon Joo Sang, Yoon Byung Hee, Jung Young Joo, Baek Eun Hye, and Baek Ji Won completed the stellar cast lineup for “My Royal Nemesis,” featuring a special appearance from Kim Hae Sook.
