MBC’s new daily drama “Fearless Yong Soo Jung” (literal title) has gathered a fearless group of actors—Uhm Hyun Kyung, Seo Jun Young, Kwon Hwa Woon, and Im Joo Eun!
The upcoming MBC weekday drama “Fearless Yong Soo Jung” (written by Choi Yeon Geol and directed by Lee Min Soo), which is set to premiere in April, tells the lively and exhilarating romantic revenge story of Yong Soo Jung (Uhm Hyun Kyung), an unyielding strong woman who dreams of becoming the next Im Sang Ok (a big trade merchant in the late Joseon Dynasty), and Yeo Eui Joo (Seo Jun Young), a hard-working and stingy person who entrusts his fate to her.
Uhm Hyun Kyung, Seo Jun Young, Kwon Hwa Woon, and Im Joo Eun, who have consistently shown strong presence in each of their projects, depict the tangled relationships of the four men and women in the drama. In particular, the intriguing encounter between the “girl crush” strong woman and the hard-working stingy man is arousing curiosity.
First, Uhm Hyun Kyung takes on the role of Yong Soo Jung, an easygoing and charming show hostess born in the year of the dragon. Yong Soo Jung with her down-to-heart personality has a large female fanbase ranging from junior and senior colleagues to middle-aged women, but when it comes to the man she likes, she struggles with expressing her feelings. The transformation of Uhm Hyun Kyung’s acting, which will show whether Yong Soo Jung can reveal her heart in front of the person she likes despite of appearing strong on outside, is drawing attention.
Seo Jun Young plays the role of the hard-working and stingy Yeo Eui Joo who lives with his intellectually disabled mother. He tirelessly strives to make his fragile mother happy, but his life takes a drastic turn when he finds out that he is the second grandson of the notorious Ma Sung Group. Seo Jun Young’s performance captures the dynamic life of Yeo Eui Joo, which unfolds like a roller coaster, drawing attention to his acting prowess.
Kwon Hwa Woon takes on the role of Joo Woo Jin, Yong Soo Jung’s unrequited love and the successor of Ma Sung Group. Behind his seemingly flawless appearance lies a sad past inside his heart; however, given the multitude of people hoping for his downfall, he lives concealing his weakness behind a mask. Curiosity surrounds whether he can shed the mask and live his own life, adding depth to Kwon Hwa Woon’s portrayal of Joo Woo Jin.
On the other hand, Im Joo Eun intensifies the tension of the drama as Choi Hye Ra, the embodiment of desires driven by green and ambition. With insatiable greed and determination to possess anything she desires, Choi Hye Ra ruthlessly seeks vengeance against those who oppose her. Im Joo Eun’s acting of Choi Hye Ra’s villainous actions, fueled by her strong acting skills, is set to trigger viewers’ outrage.
“Fearless Yong Soo Jung” previews the diverse stories of characters with various attitudes toward life. Therefore, the versatile performances of the actors portraying the diverse life stories of the four characters are even more anticipated.
The fantastic synergy of Uhm Hyun Kyung, Seo Jung Young, Kwon Hwa Woon, and Im Joo Eun will appear in MBC’s new daily drama “Fearless Yong Soo Jung,” which will premiere in April as the successor to the “The Third Marriage.”
