“Jeongnyeon” is one of the most anticipated Korean dramas of the last three months of 2024, marking the return of the famous actress Kim Tae-ri. The series is an adaptation of a webtoon of the same name, originally inspired by the character of Kim Tae-ri in the classic film “The Handmaiden”. Therefore, it is not surprising that Kim Tae-ri seems to have stepped straight out of the comic book with her performance. Another name who has made a strong impression with her “comic book” images is the beautiful supporting actress Kim Yoon-hye.
In the drama, Kim Yoon-hye plays Seo Hye-rang, the main star of the classical theater troupe Maeran, who always plays leading roles in every show. She is known for her unique dancing skills and elegant beauty. However, the character is also depicted as cunning, willing to harm anyone she sees as a threat to her position at Maeran. Seo Hye-rang’s appearance is expected to mark a major turning point in the coming-of-age story of the female lead, Jeong Nyeon (played by Kim Tae-ri).
From posters to newly released character photos, Seo Hye-rang appears with an eye-catching aura. She always stands out, whether on the street or on stage. Her sharp gaze has made viewers curious about this ambitious character.
After the reveal of these images, Kim Yoon-hye received numerous compliments for her star-like charisma and stunning appearance, which perfectly fit her role. Her resemblance to Seo Hye-rang in the webtoon also left the audience speechless.
Some comments from Internet users:
– “I’m really impressed with this production team: they cast actors who look exactly like the comic book characters!“
– “Kim Yoon Hye is so cute! I didn’t expect her usual innocent look, but she fits the role of superstar perfectly!“
– “Yoon-hye looks just like the Seo Hye-rang I imagined. I’m amazed!“
– “It fits the historical look so well.”
Set in 1950s Korea, “Jeongnyeon” tells the life story of Yoon Jung-nyeon, a young girl from Mokpo. She has no money or education, but she has a rare and heavenly singing voice. In order to earn money and realize her dream of becoming rich, Yoon Jung-nyeon joins a traditional women’s theater troupe. The drama will revolve around the events of her life as she navigates this world.
