The actress will play two characters at once. One character, Jung Ha Eun, live in the 1980s and is the owner of a secondhand bookstore called “Old Future.” The other character, Jung Sa Bin, lives in the present and is a bioarchaeologist who has a strong urge to figure out all of the secrets and stories behind nameless remains. Though the two characters have different souls, the fact that they both have pure hearts is a similarity that transcends time.

The producers of “Born Again” shared, “The purity that actress Jin Se Yeon has resembles Jung Ha Eun, and her positive energy is like Jung Sa Bin’s. Please look forward to the first broadcast to see what kind of chemistry she creates with Jang Ki Yong and Lee Soo Hyuk.”"

“Born Again” will be a mystery melodrama that follows the story of three people and the fate that ties them together across two separate lives through reincarnation.

The drama recently held a script reading for the drama that was attended by director Jin Hyung Wook, screenwriter Jung Soo Mi, and cast members Jang Ki YongJin Se YeonLee Soo Hyuk, Kim Jung Nan, Choi Kwang Il, Jung In Gyeom, Jang Won Young, and more.

Moon Bo Hyun, the head of KBS’s drama center, stated, “This will be KBS’s first Monday-Tuesday drama in approximately four months. I have high expectations with such a great cast. I hope everyone is able to create great memories through this project.”

As the script reading started, the atmosphere turned more serious as the actors fell into their roles. Jang Ki Yong, Jin Se Yeon, and Lee Soo Hyuk will all play two different characters across two separate lives, and they had great chemistry from the start. Kim Jung Nan perfectly played a provocative and dangerous woman, while Choi Kwang Il had a commanding presence. Jung In Gyeom added more mystery to the story as an evil figure, while Jang Won Young made everyone laugh with his comical acting.

3 Keywords To Keep In Mind Before Watching New KBS Drama Starring Jang Ki Yong, Jin Se Yeon, And Lee Soo Hyuk

 

3 Keywords To Keep In Mind Before Watching New KBS Drama Starring Jang Ki Yong, Jin Se Yeon, And Lee Soo Hyuk

Mar 3, 2020
by L. Kim
 

KBS Drama “Born Again” is just a month away from its premiere!

The mystery melodrama follows the story of three people and the fate that ties them together across two separate lives through reincarnation.

There are three keywords to keep in mind before you start watching Jang Ki Yong, Jin Se Yeon, and Lee Soo Hyuk’s upcoming drama. Check them out below!

1. Reincarnation

“Born Again” begins on the premise that “spirits can be reborn” and deals with the topic of reincarnation that is effected by past karma.

In this regard, the three lead actors will all play two different characters across two separate lives. Jang Ki Yong will take on the dual roles of lone wolf Gong Ji Chul in 1986 and medical student Chun Jong Bum in 2020. Lee Soo Hyuk will play both the pure-hearted detective Cha Hyung Bin in 1986 and the objective prosecutor Kim Soo Hyuk in 2020. Jin Se Yeon will act as bookstore owner Jung Ha Eun in 1986 and bioarchaeologist Jung Sa Bin in 2020.

2. Mystery

The brutal events that upset the world in the 1980s will be re-enacted more than three decades later, which will add to the tense situation where no one can trust each other. Most of all, the characters Jang Hye Mi (played by Wi Ji Yeon/Kim Jung Nan) and Cheon Seok Tae (played by Jo Duk Hwae/Cho Kwang Il) who live through two generations, unlike the three main characters, will present the secrets of their fate and reveal the thrilling story.

3. Melodrama

Viewers are already looking forward to the melodrama that will be portrayed by Jang Ki Yong, Jin Se Yeon, and Lee Soo Hyuk who captivated fans with their good looks. The love triangle between two men who love in their own way and a woman who will heal them will become tangled by drama.

“Born Again” will premiere in April. Check out the script reading here!

Jang Ki Yong Transforms Into A Lone Wolf For Upcoming Drama “Born Again”

Mar 5, 2020
by U. Kim
Jang Ki Yong Transforms Into A Lone Wolf For Upcoming Drama “Born Again”

Jang Ki Yong is giving off lonely vibes with his new drama role.

KBS2’s upcoming Monday-Tuesday drama “Born Again” is a reincarnation drama about a detective, the detective’s lover, and a serial killer who loved the detective’s lover. Their lives ended 32 years ago but their fates become entangled again when they are reincarnated into new lives. The drama stars Jang Ki Yong, Lee Soo Hyuk, and Jin Se Yeon.

Playing dual roles, Jang Ki Yong is Gong Ji Chul in the 1980s, while in 2020, Jang Ki Yong is the elite medical student Chun Jong Bum.

The newly released stills show Jang Ki Yong as the lone wolf Gong Ji Chul, who refuses to share the fate of his purely evil father. The scar below his left eye raises questions as to what kinds of events he has experienced in his life. In one image, Jang Ki Yong is inside the secondhand bookstore Old Future. It will be interesting to see what brings him to the bookstore and how he is connected to its owner Jung Ha Eun (played by Jin Se Yeon).

jang-ki-yong.jpg

The producers of “Born Again” shared, “You will be able to see a side of Jang Ki Yong that you haven’t seen before. He is explicitly portraying the complicated and mysterious aura of Gong Ji Chul. Please watch the premiere to see what stories Gong Ji Chul has to tell and how Jang Ki Yong has transformed for the role.”

“Born Again” is slated to begin airing in April.

Jin Se Yeon Is Lost Deep In Thought In Upcoming Reincarnation Drama “Born Again”

 

Jin Se Yeon Is Lost Deep In Thought In Upcoming Reincarnation Drama “Born Again”

Mar 10, 2020
by S. Nam
 

KBS2’s new Monday-Tuesday drama “Born Again” has shared its first stills of Jin Se Yeon!

“Born Again” is a reincarnation drama about a detective, the detective’s lover, and a serial killer who loved the detective’s lover. Their lives ended 32 years ago but their fates become entangled again when they are reincarnated into new lives. Jang Ki Yong, Jin Se Yeon, and Lee Soo Hyuk will all be playing two different characters each across two separate lives,

Jin Se Yeon will be playing the roles of Jung Ha Eun in the 1980s and Jung Sa Bin in the present. The new stills feature Jung Ha Eun, owner of the secondhand bookstore The Old Future, who suffers from dilated cardiomyopathy (a condition that causes the heart chambers to be enlarged and unable to pump blood effectively due to weakened heart muscle).

The pictures give off a retro vibe as Jung Ha Eun is surrounded by tightly stacked books, a lamp, a teapot, and a basket filled with fruit. While listening to a red radio cassette player, Jung Ha Eun is writing something down. Looking lost in thought, her gaze makes viewers reminisce of their first loves.

Jin-Se-Yeon-2.jpg

In another photo, Jung Ha Eun is standing beneath the bookstore’s sign while holding a yellow umbrella as snow falls from the sky. The sign that reads “The Old Future” seems somewhat befitting of the theme of reincarnation in the drama. Furthermore, Jung Ha Eun is staring to her side, drawing curiosity on if she’s waiting for something.

Jin-Se-Yeon-3.jpg

The production team shared, “Jin Se Yeon suits the 1980s analog vibe very well. In the drama, Jung Ha Eun will have a very different feel from the present life character Jung Sa Bin. With dual roles that are different for each generation, viewers will be able to feel a new charm, so please look forward to it.”

“Born Again” will premiere on April 20.

Love this gentle, nostalgic "first love" feeling from these pictures in the bookshop set and the character of Jung Ha Eun. No wonder both the male leads are head over heels for her!:love:

by E. Cha
 

KBS 2TV’s upcoming drama “Born Again” has shared its first glimpse of Lee Soo Hyuk in character!

Described as a “mystery melodrama about reincarnation,” “Born Again” will tell the story of three people and their intertwined fates, which remain interconnected even as they lead new lives after being reincarnated. Jang Ki Yong, Jin Se Yeon, and Lee Soo Hyuk will each be taking on two different roles in the drama.

Lee Soo Hyuk’s first character will be the pure-hearted detective Cha Hyung Bin from the 1980s, while his second will be Cha Hyung Bin’s modern-day reincarnation: the cool-headed prosecutor Kim Soo Hyuk.

On March 12, the upcoming drama unveiled a sneak peek of Lee Soo Hyuk in the first of his dual roles. Dressed in a 1980s police uniform, Lee Soo Hyuk glances up from a book with a warm, innocent gaze as the devoted detective Cha Hyung Bin, who only has eyes for one woman. Other photos show the character poring over a crime scene with a determined frown, piquing viewers’ curiosity as to what evidence might have captured his attention.

The producers of “Born Again” commented, “As this is Lee Soo Hyuk’s first time taking on two different roles in the same drama, he is working especially hard on exploring and developing his characters. Viewers will be able to see many different charms from him at once through this drama.”

They went on to add, “Lee Soo Hyuk was able to stylishly pull off his 1980s costumes, and his retro fashion will add another fun element of entertainment to the drama. Please look forward to it.”

“Born Again” will premiere on April 20 at 10 p.m. KST.

Jin Se Yeon commented about her two co-stars, “As soon as I saw Jang Ki Yong, he really felt like [his character] Gong Ji Chul, so I was surprised. The way he gazed at [my character] Jung Ha Eun with pure eyes really left an impression on me. As soon as I met Lee Soo Hyuk, he was very considerate and caring, so I’m grateful to him.”

Lee Soo Hyuk said, “I’m having fun filming in a really comfortable atmosphere. In the drama, we went to the countryside to film several times to express the feeling of the ’80s, so the actors talked a lot to each other and got closer faster.”

It seems like in the 1980s Jin Se Yeon and Lee Soo Hyuk's characters are very lovey dovey boyfriend and girlfriend.  I wonder how Jang Ki Yong's character fits in?

New pictures of the leads from KBS and our first look at their 2020 re-incarnated characters:D

 

 

Upcoming KBS drama “Born Again” dropped new stills of the three lead characters, giving a glimpse into their second lives.

“Born Again” is a reincarnation drama about a detective, the detective’s lover, and a serial killer who loved the detective’s lover. Their lives ended 32 years ago, but their fates become entangled again when they are reincarnated into new lives. Jang Ki YongJin Se Yeon, and Lee Soo Hyuk will all be playing two different characters each across two separate lives.

In the latest stills, Jang Ki Yong, Jin Se Yeon, and Lee Soo Hyuk can be seen standing in the snow. Jang Ki Yong, who plays elite medical student Cheon Jong Beom in the present, is sitting inside a bookstore with a faraway gaze as if he’s recalling a memory. In another photo, he gazes up at the falling snow with a hand stretched out, exuding a melancholy yet romantic vibe.

Jin Se Yeon, who takes on the role of a bone archaeologist named Jung Sa Bin in the present, watches the snow falling with a delightful smile on her face and a warm cup of coffee in her hand. On the other hand, Lee Soo Hyuk, who acts as prosecutor Kim Soo Hyuk in the present, coolly passes by the bookstore after receiving a call about a case and does not seem to have much interest in the snow.

The three characters are still connected in the present by fateful coincidence. Cheon Jong Beom extends his hand out in the exact same place Jung Sa Bin was standing before. Meanwhile, Jung Sa Bin can be seen behind Kim Soo Hyuk as she walks in the opposite direction.

jang-ki-yong1.jpgjin-se-yeon1.jpglee-soo-hyuk1.jpg

In the 1980s, Jung Sa Bin was bookstore owner Jung Ha Eun, Cheon Jong Beom was a lone wolf named Gong Ji Cheol, and Kim Soo Hyuk was detective Cha Hyung Bin. Viewers are already anticipating the fateful events they will experience in the present.

“Born Again” will premiere on April 20 at 10 p.m. KST. Watch the behind-the-scenes video of the script reading here!

Watch: “Born Again” Shares Glimpse Of Ties Between Jang Ki Yong, Jin Se Yeon, And Lee Soo Hyuk

Mar 30, 2020
by J. Lim
 

KBS 2TV’s upcoming Monday-Tuesday drama “Born Again” is raising intrigue with its second teaser video.

“Born Again” will be a mystery melodrama that follows three people whose lives are intertwined across two lifespans.

The second teaser gives a glimpse into a mysterious case that connects the three souls in the 1980s and the present day. In the present, Jang Ki Yong, who plays both Gong Ji Cheol and Cheon Jong Beom, steps up to help Jin Se Yeon, who plays Jung Hae Eun and Jung Sa Bin, tie red ribbons on a tree. Meanwhile, Lee Soo Hyuk, playing Cha Hyung Bin and Kim Soo Hyuk, holds onto Jin Se Yeon’s hand in the 1980s and says, “I will protect you till the end.”

There is an overlap of Jang Ki Yong and Lee Soo Hyuk bumping into each other in both the 1980s and the present, and the music turns slightly sinister as a series of tense images flash across the screen. The teaser ends with Jin Se Yeon’s voice saying, “20 years later, 30 years later, I will still miss you,” making viewers curious to know who she is talking about.

“Born Again” will premiere on April 20.

Jang Ki Yong Talks About Playing Dual Roles In Upcoming Reincarnation Drama “Born Again”

 

Jang Ki Yong Talks About Playing Dual Roles In Upcoming Reincarnation Drama “Born Again”

Apr 1, 2020
by L. Kim
 

Jang Ki Yong talked about his new roles in the new KBS drama “Born Again.”

“Born Again” will be a mystery melodrama that follows three people whose lives are intertwined across two lifespans. Playing dual roles, Jang Ki Yong is lone wolf Gong Ji Cheol in the 1980s, while in 2020, Jang Ki Yong is the elite medical student Cheon Jong Beom.

Jang Ki Yong shared his reason for joining the drama. He said, “The script was really interesting. The characters, as well as the story itself, seemed very unique and attractive. Not a single character is ordinary.”

He continued, “In addition, the new challenge of double roles was tempting. I might seem a little unfamiliar at first, but I’m looking forward to showing something different from the roles I’ve played so far.”

Then Jang Ki Yong commented, “I wanted to challenge myself to play a double role so that I can show the various sides of myself in acting. Gong Ji Cheol of the ’80s is a lonely and solitary person. On the other hand, Cheon Jong Beom is an elite medical student who is full of passion. I tried to change the way I speak, the look in my eyes, and my appearance because I was playing two completely different characters.”

He added, “‘Born Again’ has the emotional romance and exciting suspense that you don’t want to miss. You can also enjoy the fun of the genre ‘mystery reincarnation melo-romance.’ We’re working hard to film, so please wait a little longer until April.”

“Born Again” will premiere on April 20 at 10 p.m. KST. Check out the latest teaser here!
