REBECCA [Welcome to Waikiki]

Fans see Rebecca as more than just a car; she's a character woven deeply into the drama, adding laughter to the plot. Each time Rebecca appears on screen, viewers can't stop laughing.

Rebecca symbolizes the struggles and aspirations of Joon-ki and his mates, who run a guesthouse named Waikiki. Despite its worn-out appearance and frequent breakdowns, Rebecca is a reliable companion in their chaotic life journey. Joon-ki's love for Rebecca, his old, run-down car, adds a unique charm to the series.

SUNNY [Lovely Runner]

Sunny is another iconic K-drama car that fans love. "Lovely Runner," a recent hit series that has taken the K-drama realm by storm, features "Sunny," a sleek and stylish imported car. The car is beloved of Kim Tae-sung. The way Tae-sung is devastated and heartbroken when Sunny accidentally rolls into the sea strikes a chord with the audiences, infusing the scene with both humor and emotion. Creating a character out of a car requires meticulous attention to detail. The production team of "Lovely Runner" chose the perfect vehicle that became a fan favorite and added a unique charm to the story.
