Uhm Tae Goo, Han Sun Hwa, And Kwon Yool Confirmed For New Romance Drama Based On Webtoon

Jan 10, 2024
by M. Lim
 

Uhm Tae Goo, Han Sun Hwa, and Kwon Yool’s upcoming drama “The Woman Who Plays” (literal translation) has unveiled its first stills!

Based on a popular webtoon of the same name, “The Woman Who Plays” is a romance drama that tells the story of Ji Hwan (Uhm Tae Goo), a former gang leader, and Eun Ha (Han Sun Hwa), a YouTuber who makes content for kids.

Uhm Tae Goo takes on the role of Seo Ji Hwan, the CEO of the social enterprise “Thirsty Deer” who has left behind his past as a former gang leader. Traveling nationwide to dismantle gangs, Seo Ji Hwan actively recruits former members upon their release from prison and guides them toward a fresh start. Behind his determination to reshape the world of organized crime and sever ties with his past, Seo Ji Hwan holds a secret story.

Han Sun Hwa will play Go Eun Ha, a content creator for children known as “Mini Unnie.” Fueled by memories of a caring older boy from her childhood neighborhood who was the only one willing to play with her, Go Eun Ha grows up with a mission to convey love and happiness to children. Always prioritizing the well-being of children over financial concerns, Eun Ha often receives the cold shoulder from her production company due to her low number of subscribers, but she remains unwaveringly bright, determined, and resilient.

Kwon Yool will portray Jang Hyeon Woo, a prosecutor at the Seoul Central District Prosecutors’ Office and an enthusiastic subscriber of Mini Unnie. Jang Hyeon Woo exhibits endless kindness toward children visiting the prosecution office but maintains a firm belief that “people don’t change” when it comes to criminals. As a result, he harbors continuous suspicion toward Seo Ji Hwan, who legally takes former convicts under his wings.

The production team expressed, “At first glance, it may seem like these characters are people living in different worlds. However, we want to provide viewers with the excitement of uncovering plot twists and heart-fluttering moments as the characters dispel prejudices and discover the true value of others. We are already looking forward to the acting synergy of Uhm Tae Goo, Han Sun Hwa, and Kwon Yool.”

“The Woman Who Plays” is scheduled to premiere in 2024.

Uhm Tae-gu wants a second chance in The Woman Who Plays

by Jenzy

2024011021155431.jpg

 

JTBC just released character stills for their upcoming drama The Woman Who Plays starring Uhm Tae-gu (Hometown), Han Sun-hwa (Work Later, Drink Now 2), and Kwon Yul (Longing for You).

While described as a comedy, the drama centers around the weighty topic of redemption — wrestling with the question of how does one earn a second chance? For our lead Seo Ji-hwan (Uhm Tae-gu), it’s something he’s chased for at least half his life. After turning away from his longtime job as a crime boss, Ji-hwan has made it his personal mission to break up criminal organizations all across Korea and offer ex-cons a new life on the right side of the law. He’s earnestly trying to atone for his crimes, but wonders if it will ever be enough.

 

But despite Ji-hwan’s guilt, it looks like his past legacy might not be all evil deeds like he thinks. Case in point: Go Eun-ha (Han Sun-hwa). She’s a children’s content creator known as Minnie Unni, and even though her subscriber count might be low, she’s bubbly and loves what she does. To her few fans, she credits her inspiration to an old neighborhood oppa that kindly played with her as a child, giving her hope in a lonely time. (Hmmm I wonder who that oppa might be?)

Finally, rounding out the main cast we have Seoul prosecutor and huge Minnie Unni fan, Seo Hyun-woo (Kwon Yul). While he’s infinitely empathetic and kind to the children that come through the prosecution office, he takes a hard stance against convicts. To him, once a criminal, always a criminal. This creates conflict when he mets Ji-hwan who actively employs the very people Hyun-woo works hard to put away in jail. Will the two be able to reconcile their differing beliefs? All while wooing the same girl?

Written by Na Kyung and directed by Kim Young-hwan (Today’s Webtoon) and Kim Woo-hyun (Ode to Our Youth), The Woman Who Plays is slated to air sometime in the first half of this year.
