MBC’s “My Dearest” has shared new stills from its upcoming episode!
“My Dearest” is a historical romance drama about star-crossed lovers whose fates become twisted due to the Qing invasion of Joseon. Namgoong Min stars as Lee Jang Hyun, a man who has declared that he will not get married, while Ahn Eun Jin plays Yoo Gil Chae, a noblewoman who dreams of finding love again even after two failed marriages. The drama also stars Lee Hak Joo as Nam Yeon Joon, a promising Confucian student studying at Sungkyunkwan, and Lee Da In as Nam Yeon Joon’s fiancée and Yoo Gil Chae’s closest friend Kyung Eun Ae.
The first and second episodes of “My Dearest” depicted the conflicting feelings of young men and women during peacetime. However, there were hints of war in between, and at the end of the second episode, the shocking news of an invasion arrived.
With the outbreak of the Manchu war, the people of Neunggeun, who have been enjoying a life of prosperity, will be forced to evacuate, and lovers will be separated.
In the first two episodes of “My Dearest,” Lee Jang Hyun took a romantic interest in Yoo Gil Chae, who is straightforward and honest when it comes to love. Although he knew she had feelings for Nam Yeon Joon, Lee Jang Hyun nonchalantly confessed his feelings to Yoo Gil Chae, making her heart flutter in the process. However, the Manchu war started even before the two could confirm their feelings for each other.
Meanwhile, Nam Yeon Joon rejected Yoo Gil Chae, whom all the boys in Neunggeun Village had a crush on, to stay loyal to his betrothed Kyung Eun Ae. On the other hand, despite rarely showing her feelings, Kyung Eun Ae can’t hide her feelings for Nam Yeon Joon. It remains to be seen what changes the Manchu war will bring to Nam Yeon Joon and Kyung Eun Ae’s relationship.
The production team of “My Dearest” commented, “From the third and fourth episodes airing this week, the Qing invasion of Joseon will begin in earnest. The war will destroy the lives of the people. The four main characters of ‘My Dearest’ will desperately fight to survive and protect their love. Please pay a lot of attention and look forward to ‘My Dearest,’ which will unleash a more heartbreaking story and more powerful emotional storms starting with the Manchu war.”
The next episode of “My Dearest” will air on August 11 at 9:50 p.m. KST.
