In an interview with MyungMin International in January, Kim Myeong-min revealed that "Man Ho will actually be involved in a love triangle with Mi Nyeo Se and Yun Ki (another marathoner)". As of press time, the actor who will play the role of Yun Ki has not yet been revealed.

While she is no stranger to the big screen with two Japanese films under her belt (Genghis Khan: To the Ends of the Earth and Sea (2007) and Subaru (2009)). "Pacemaker" marks her film debut in Korea.
"Pacemaker" is an inspiring and heartwarming movie that tells about the life of a man who becomes an Olympic runner by accident. It also stars veteran actor Ahn Seong-gi ("The Divine Weapon", 2008; "Radio Star", 2006 ).
