2023060108212356159_1.jpg

 

Kim Nam-joo and Cha Eun-woo officially confirmed their appearances in 'Wonderful World' (tentative title).

 

The new drama 'Wonderful World' (tentative title) (Director Lee Seung-young, Screenplay Kim Ji-eun, Production Samhwa Networks) is an emotional healing thriller in which Eun Soo-hyun (Kim Nam-joo), who lost her young son unfairly, directly punishes the perpetrator who escaped the law. Director Lee Seung-young, who received favorable reviews for his highly immersive and sensuous directing in the dramas 'Tracer 1, 2' and 'Voice 2', and writer Kim Ji-eun, who boasted speedy writing skills in the dramas 'Lie of Lies' and 'Cheongdam-dong Scandal', collaborated to star. From the production team to the production team, a more powerful lineup was completed.

 

'Wonderful World' officially announced the appearance of Kim Nam-joo and Cha Eun-woo. 'Queen of Success' Kim Nam-joo returned to the home theater after 5 years, and Cha Eun-woo confirmed the casting, and the meeting between the two actors was concluded.

 

First of all, Kim Nam-joo, who is returning to the small screen after 5 years with this work, has led the topic and box office with 'Queen of Success' in the small screen, such as 'Misty', 'You Who Rolled in the Vine', 'Queen of Reversals' and 'Queen of Housewives'. . Expectations are high that she will once again show off her presence as a 'box-office queen'.

 

Kim Nam-joo plays the role of Eun Soo-hyun, a psychology professor and famous writer who lives a successful life without any flaws. Eun Soo-hyun, who lost her young son unjustly, punished the perpetrator herself in a hopeless world and lived desperately.

 

Kim Nam-joo is expected to explode her delicate acting skills in 'Wonderful World'. As soon as she confirmed her appearance, she immersed herself in the script and is melting into the character of Eun Soo-hyun. We are waiting for Kim Nam-joo, who will create Eun Soo-hyun with various emotional lines and complex psychology.

 

Cha Eun-woo, who will lead 'Wonderful World' with Kim Nam-joo. He played the role of Kwon Seon-yul in the play. Kwon Seol-yoon is a person who dropped out of the medical school he passed and chose a rough life. In addition, Kwon Seon-yul meets Eun Soo-hyun (played by Kim Nam-joo), who is barely living in the sorrow of loss, and heals each other's wounds and permeates deep into her life.

 

Cha Eun-woo will show off his intense acting transformation as Kwon Seon-yul, a figure wrapped in a veil. Cha Eun-woo has shown off his presence in various works such as the dramas 'Island', 'Goddess Advent', 'Rookie Historian Goo Hae-ryeong', and 'My Name is Gangnam Beauty'. In the recent drama 'Island', he was the youngest exorcist in the Vatican, and his first fantasy genre drama also led to favorable reviews for his acting. As a result, expectations are rising as to what kind of new appearance Cha Eun-woo will show in 'Wonderful World', and attention is paid to the explosive acting chemistry he will show with Kim Nam-joo.

 

The production team of 'Wonderful World' said, "Kim Nam-joo is returning to the home theater." "Kim Nam-joo has led box office success with her acting skills beyond imagination in each of her works, so just joining Kim Nam-joo is a great help. Please look forward to it."

In addition, "You will be able to see Cha Eun-woo's unique and tough charm through the character Kwon Seon-yul, who has an unknown atmosphere behind a good face."

 

'Wonderful World' was a meeting between 'Queen of Success' Kim Nam-joo and 'Presence King' Eun-woo Cha. While raising the expectations of prospective viewers, attention is being paid to what kind of craze it will cause in the home theater in 2024.

 

Meanwhile, 'Wonderful World' is scheduled to begin production with the goal of airing in the first half of 2024.

I'd rather someone else besides the idol play alongside Kim Nam Joo.... But here we are.... They must cast idols to bring in fickle fan eyeballs to pay for production costs and gain ratings...

 

I did not watch Cha Eun woo in anything so I can`t comment on this casting but I can`t believe that Kim Kang woo plays the second male lead in this story. :o

 

I wanted to watch Kim Nam Joo in another drama after Misty and I wanted to be true the rumor about the drama with Jang Hyuk and Park Hoon.  I will keep an eye on this drama but I don`t like the revenge genre. I am a little optimistic that there is a healing story too.

The production of Wonderful World officially announced the participation of Kim Nam Joo and Cha Eun Woo. Kim Nam Joo, known as the "box office queen," makes her return to the small screen after five years, and the casting of Cha Eun Woo was confirmed.

 

QJ2Ob6_2f.jpg

 

In the drama, Kim Nam Joo will bring life to the role of Eun Soo Hyun, a psychology professor and a successful writer leading an enviable life. After losing her young son unjustly, she takes matters into her own hands, living a harsh life while relentlessly seeking justice. In the process, she becomes entangled with others who have suffered similar wounds, unraveling mysterious events and healing each other's souls and emotional scars.

Anticipation is high for Kim Nam Joo to showcase her delicate acting skills in Wonderful World. Immediately after confirming her participation, she immersed herself in the script, fully embodying the character of Eun Soo Hyun. Expectations are rising for Kim Nam Joo to portray the complex emotions and psychological depth of Eun Soo Hyun.

Joining Kim Nam Joo is Cha Eun Woo, who takes on the role of Kwon Seon Yul. Kwon Seon Yul is a character who gave up a successful career in medical school to choose a tougher life. Meeting Eun Soo Hyun (Kim Nam Joo) in the midst of sorrow and barely surviving, he becomes deeply intertwined with her life, healing her wounds and leaving a lasting impact.

The meeting of Kim Nam Joo, the "box office queen," and Cha Eun Woo, the "king of presence," in Wonderful World has been confirmed. As the anticipation of prospective viewers grows, attention is focused on what kind of sensation the drama will create when it airs in audiences' living rooms in 2024.

Wonderful World is scheduled to begin production to air in the first half of 2024.

I hope so too ... Writernim is more of a melodrama person. I enjoyed her last drama lie after lie, and especially with someone as powerful of an actress as Lee YuRi to play such an emotional role. I can't wait to see Kim Nam Joo again.

I tried to watch Lie after Lie because I liked the cast but I could not resist more than two episodes. I don`t like the makjang style of this writer. I can watch a melodrama done well but if the writer will give us a similar story, I won`t watch.

 

Kim Kang Woo seems to have a complex character. I like that.

Earlier in May, Kim Nam Joo was confirmed to play the role of the female lead Eun Soo Hyun, a successful and famous psychology professor and writer who falls into hopeless despair after losing her young son. A few days later, Cha Eun Woo was also confirmed to star as Kwon Sun Yool, a dropout medical student who leads a rough life after losing his parents.

On June 8, Im Se Mi’s agency Noon Company officially announced that Im Se Mi will star in “Wonderful World” as Han Yu Ri, the CEO of a boutique shop who is like a real sister to Eun Soo Hyun. Likewise, Han Yu Ri regards Soo Hyun’s and Soo Hyun’s mother’s lives as being more precious than her own.

Im Se Mi, who showcased her stable acting skills in various projects including “I’ll Go to You When the Weather is Nice” and TVING’s sci-fi drama “Duty After School,” also starred alongside Cha Eun Woo in the hit drama “True Beauty” in 2020.

“Wonderful World” is expected to air in the first half of 2024. Stay tuned!
