tvN’s upcoming drama “Alchemy of Souls” shared new stills of Oh Na Ra!
Helmed by “What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim” director Park Joon Hwa, “Alchemy of Souls” is a fantasy romance drama set in the fictional nation of Daeho, a country that does not exist in history or on maps. The drama will tell the story of characters whose fates become twisted due to magic that swaps people’s souls.
The upcoming drama will be penned by the famous screenwriting duo known as the Hong Sisters (Hong Jung Eun and Hong Mi Ran), whose previous works include the hit dramas “You’re Beautiful,” “My Girlfriend is a Gumiho,” “The Greatest Love,” “Master’s Sun,” “Hotel Del Luna,” and more.
Oh Na Ra will take on the role of the magnanimous Kim Do Joo, the housekeeper of the Jang family who wields great influence in the household. Kim Do Joo takes care of everything within the Jang family household, and she is broad-minded and strong, but she is weak for Jang Wook (Lee Jae Wook). Oh Na Ra will portray hilarious chemistry with Yoo Joon Sang, who plays Park Jin, as their characters argue about how to raise Jang Wook.
In the newly released stills, Kim Do Joo is gazing at someone with an unreadable face. However, her firm gaze and strong aura hint she’s an influential person and not just a mere housekeeper. She might seem cold, but when she’s in front of Jang Wook, her expression changes 180 degrees. In one photo, she hands him a bowl of tonic with affectionate eyes, and she exudes motherly vibes. As a result, expectations are high for Oh Na Ra’s performance as she goes back and forth between two very different sides depending on the person she’s with.
The production team remarked, “Oh Na is an actress who has strong acting skills and warmly embraces her junior actors. On the drama set, she takes care of her colleagues and makes the atmosphere pleasant, but when filming officially begins, she instantly immerses into her character. Please look forward to Oh Na Ra’s performance that will portray Kim Do Joo in a lovable and three-dimensional way.”
“Alchemy of Souls” will premiere on June 18 at 9:10 p.m. KST.
