larus Posted October 7, 2021 Author Share Posted October 7, 2021 Park Hyung Sik, Han Hyo Joo, And Jo Woo Jin Witness The World Falling Apart In Poster For Upcoming Drama Drama Preview Oct 7, 2021 by L. Kim tvN has unveiled an intriguing poster for its upcoming drama “Happiness” (literal translation)!” “Happiness” is an apocalyptic city thriller that takes place in the near future within an apartment that is stratified by social standing. The high-rise apartment housing diverse people becomes sealed off when a new infectious disease emerges, and the drama will depict the fear, fierce psychological battle, and desperate struggle for survival. “Happiness” will be a realistic horror drama in which the people become suspicious of each other in the enclosed space as their daily lives fall apart and their pre-existing values begin to waver. Han Hyo Joo stars as Yoon Sae Bom, a tactical agent in the Seoul Police Special Operations Unit who is decisive and has fast judgment. Park Hyung Shik plays Jung Yi Hyun, an intelligent and honest violent crimes detective who wants to pursue a sweet relationship with Yoon Sae Bom. Jo Woo Jin takes the role of commander Han Tae Suk of the Armed Forces Medical Command, who holds the key to the infectious disease. On October 7, the drama unveiled a suspenseful poster starring the three main characters. The atmosphere is cold, hinting that a crisis has interrupted everyone’s daily lives. The apartment that was once everyone’s haven fills with fear, and people panic as they race down the stairs. On the contrary, Yoon Sae Bom, Jung Yi Hyun, and Han Tae Suk are going up the stairs, and they look out the window with serious and concerned eyes. The poster’s caption states that the world they knew yesterday has collapsed. The producers of “Happiness” teased, “Everyone’s daily lives will become completely different due to an unidentified new infectious disease. The struggle for survival during an extreme crisis that is eroded by anxiety and fear will be depicted realistically. The current ongoing fear of what can actually happen during an ‘infectious disease’ and the psychological warfare in an enclosed space will deliver a different kind of fun as well as genre-based pleasure.” “Happiness” will premiere on November 5 at 10:40 p.m. KST via tvN and TVING. https://www.soompi.com/article/1492297wpp/park-hyung-sik-han-hyo-joo-and-jo-woo-jin-witness-the-world-falling-apart-in-poster-for-upcoming-drama Teaser Spoiler 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

larus Posted October 10, 2021 Author Share Posted October 10, 2021 Watch: Han Hyo Joo, Park Hyung Sik, And Jo Woo Jin Talk About Their Characters In Script Reading Video For New Drama TV/Film Oct 10, 2021 by C. Hong tvN released a behind-the-scenes video from the script reading of the upcoming drama “Happiness” (literal title)! “Happiness” is an apocalyptic urban thriller that takes place in the near future within an apartment that is stratified by social standing. The high-rise apartment that houses diverse people becomes sealed off when a new infectious disease emerges, and the drama will depict the fear, psychological battles, and desperate struggles for survival that ensue. Han Hyo Joo stars as Yoon Sae Bom, a tactical agent in the Seoul Police Special Operations Unit, known for her decisiveness and quick judgment. Park Hyung Sik stars as Jung Yi Hyun, an intelligent and honest police detective in the violent crimes division. He is a former high school classmate of Yoon Sae Bom and harbors a sweet, romantic side. Jo Woo Jin stars as Han Tae Suk, who is in the Armed Forces Medical Command and in charge of secretly discovering the cause of the infectious disease and stopping its spread. In the script reading video, Han Hyo Joo introduced Yoon Sae Bom by saying, “Her motto is, ‘In this chaotic world, let’s live a comfortable life.’ She’s action-oriented to the point that she sometimes acts before she thinks, but her recklessness can also be quite lovable. I think it was fate to meet a character who is so much like myself. When I read the script, meeting the character of Yoon Sae Bom felt like destiny. Park Hyung Sik said, “It’s been a long time since I said hello. After being discharged from the military, I am back as the police officer Jung Yi Hyun. He’s pure-hearted with a strong sense of justice, but he also has a blunt and tenacious side. I think that he’s a very multifaceted person. Jo Woo Jin said, “He holds the key to the infectious disease. He needs to find the cause and stop its spread. You can’t tell what he’s thinking inside, but as you watch the drama, you’ll learn what kind of character he really is.” To describe Sae Bom and Yi Hyun’s relationship, Han Hyo Joo said, “Like a house? Sae Bom has a lot of dreams about her own home. Park Hyung Sik has a great sense of sociableness. He approached me when we first met and was very friendly, so I was able to feel comfortable as well.” Park Hyung Sik described their characters’ relationship as each other’s “saviors,” but the production staff had to bleep out the rest of what he said due to spoilers.
