Lee Na-young takes day trips in Park Ha-kyung’s Travels

by lovepark

 

The first teaser for the upcoming slice-of-life drama Park Ha-kyung’s Travels starring Lee Na-young (Romance is a Bonus Boook) just dropped, and from its soft colors and atmospheric tone, it looks to be a cozy watch.

The teaser centers around high school language arts teacher Park Ha-kyung (Lee Na-young) who finds herself lecturing to a classroom full of bored students more interested in their phones than her lesson. After a frustrating call with her father, Ha-kyung wishes she could disappear, so instead, she departs on a one-day trip.

Her goals for these excursions are simple: walk, eat, and daydream. We catch glimpses of Ha-kyung’s activities as she narrates, “If I don’t go anywhere, I don’t think I could stand it, but at the same time, I want to do nothing.”

The omnibus drama will focus on different people Ha-kyung meets on her travels, highlighting old and new relationships as well as different locales across Korea. The drama boasts an impressive cast of special appearances, and with Lee Na-young at the helm guiding this story, we are definitely in for a treat.

From the teaser, we see her enjoying tea with Seo Hyun-woo (Behind Every Star), marveling in a museum with Gil Hae-yeon (Strangers Again), sniffing pinecones with Sunwoo Jung-ah, crossing paths with Gu Kyo-hwan (D.P.), visiting an art gallery with Han Ye-ri (Hometown), sharing a secret with Jo Hyun-chul (Inspector Koo), and nodding along with Shim Eun-kyung (Money Game).

Breaking the typical drama format, Park Ha-kyung’s Travels is slated for 8 episodes with an approximate 25-minute runtime for each. Hopefully the director’s choice to break the mold will result in a cute and contemplative story about people, place, and healing.

Directed by Lee Jong-pil (Samjin Company English Class) and written by Sohn Mi (Samjin Company English Class), Park Ha-kyung’s Travels will premiere on May 24 on Wavve.

Each episode will take viewers to a new location as they follow Park Ha Kyung on her journey, experiencing all kinds of emotions and feelings of comfort with the changing scenery.

Here are three key points to pique viewers’ interest:

A healing travelogue that can easily be watched anytime, anywhere

With its concept of “a one-day trip on a Saturday when you want to disappear,” “One Day Off” is a travelogue that will bring viewers vicarious excitement and healing through Park Ha Kyung’s trips to various locations. Additionally, with each episode of the drama being just 25 minutes long, viewers can easily and quickly watch an episode anytime and anywhere, whether they’re hanging out in a cafe or commuting on a bus or subway.

A surprising lineup of actors

Unique locations with a lot to offer
