Chu Young Woo Adjusts To Life In The Countryside In Upcoming Romance Drama

 

Chu Young Woo is a city soul stuck in the countryside in “Unexpected Country Diary” (literal title)!

 

Based on a web novel of the same name by Park Ha Min, Kakao TV’s upcoming drama “Unexpected Country Diary” will depict the joys and sorrows of the pure and relatable people of Heedong Village.

 

The drama will also depict a budding romance between the village’s very own darling Ahn Ja Young, played by Red Velvet’s Joy, and Han Ji Yool, a veterinarian from Seoul that can’t wait to escape the village. This city soul, who will be played by Chu Young Woo, is a man with a prickly personality that does everything by the book.

 

On August 10, the drama shared a set of stills showing Han Ji Yool going about life in Heedong Village. Han Ji Yool was an ordinary veterinarian practicing in Seoul until he was called out to the countryside by his grandfather, and he now runs a clinic looking after the cattle in the village.

 

As a stickler for living by the book, Han Ji Yool’s guiding principle is “Doing what you need to do and performing your share well is enough.” He lives by the rule: “Don’t inconvenience anyone, and don’t be inconvenienced by others either.” But life in Heedong Village changes everything. Dealing with new types of patients is one thing, but dealing with people that keep crossing personal boundaries out of curiosity is another type of challenge entirely! Naturally, his one and only goal soon becomes to get out of the village and back to Seoul as soon as possible.

 

 

The newly released stills show what everyday life for Han Ji Yool in the village looks like. Looking after patients takes on a whole new meaning compared to when he used to treat them in a white coat in Seoul. Dressed in waterproof work clothes, he looks after cows with a gentle hand in the middle of a barn. He does his best as a veterinarian, even stooping down to be on eye level with a country dog. Regardless of the setting, his love and care for animals remains unchanged, and his caring heart shines through the way he looks at them in the photos. Chu Young Woo’s perfect depiction of a loving veterinarian in the countryside is just one thing to look forward to in “Unexpected Country Diary.”

The production team commented, “Chu Young Woo is doing a great job of taking the lead with his solid acting that’s unexpected from a rookie actor. Despite struggling to adjust to life in the countryside and dreaming of escaping back to Seoul, he will gradually fall in love with Heedong Village without realizing it. As he depicts this process, he will join the viewers in taking in all the romance a rural lifestyle offers. Please look forward to it.”

 

“Unexpected Country Diary” will be a mid-form drama with 12 episodes that are about 30 minutes long, and the first episode is set to air September 5.

Red Velvet’s Joy, Chu Young Woo, And Baek Sung Chul Overflow With Youthful Energy In Main Poster For New Drama

Get ready for a new kind of rom-com starring Red Velvet’s Joy, Chu Young Woo, and Baek Sung Chul!

 

“Unexpected Country Diary” (literal title) is based on a web novel of the same name and is about a man from Seoul meeting a policewoman while living in the countryside. Along with the love story of the two characters against the backdrop of fresh nature, the drama will depict the joys and sorrows of the pure and humane people of Heedong Village.

 

Joy plays the bright and lovely policewoman Ahn Ja Young, a Heedong Village native and a people person who gets along with everyone in town. If anything happens in Heedong Village, Ahn Ja Young will always show up and help resolve matters.

 

Chu Young Woo takes on the role of Han Ji Yool, a veterinarian from Seoul who wishes to get out of Heedong Village as soon as possible. After working in the city, Han Ji Yool finds himself in charge of an animal hospital in the countryside and starts having to look after large animals like cows and goats.

 

Baek Sung Chul stars as the young and handsome farm successor Lee Sang Hyun who represents all the youth of Heedong Village. Lee Sang Hyun is friendly with everyone but is often bickering with Ahn Ja Young, his best friend since birth.

 

The main poster features the three lead characters posing against the backdrop of the radiant and fresh Heedong Village, which is filled with warmth and friendliness. Ahn Ja Young, Han Ji Yool, and Lee Sang Hyun are sitting on a tractor under the clear sky. First off, Ahn Ja Young smiles brightly as she holds onto the tip of her straw hat. On the other hand, Han Ji Yool looks uncomfortable as if he can’t adjust to his new home, but he firmly holds onto the puppy. Lee Sang Hyun further excites drama fans by exuding the vibes of a youthful farmer as he takes the wheel.

 

 

The production team stated, “When Joy, Chu Young Woo, and Baek Sung Chul come together, light literally pours out. Their good looks, passion, acting [skills], and energy overflow the screen. Even at the outdoor poster shooting in the sweltering weather, the trio did not lose their bright smiles and cheered up the staff, creating a more beautiful image. In September, when the cool breeze begins to blow, we hope you can enjoy the countryside life with the people of Heedong Village, who are full of warm hearts and affection, with ‘Unexpected Country Diary.'”

 

The first episode of the new series will air on September 5 at 7 p.m. KST.
