‘Our Unwritten Seoul’ Premieres with Park Bo-young’s Bold Twin-Switch Storyline



The twin sisters, played by Park Bo-young as a two-person role, drew attention from viewers with an unconventional choice of exchanging each other's lives.

tvN's Saturday-Sunday drama 'Unknown Seoul', which first aired on the 24th, features Yoo Mi-ji and Yoo Mi-rae (Park Bo-young) deciding to change each other's lives after getting tired of their lives. The twin sisters increased the immersion of the play by making secret promises with the words "I'll live as you, you live as me".

Yu Mi-ji is a person who ends her career as a track and field athlete and lives in Duson-ri, and spends her days nursing her grandmother and working in the village. On the other hand, older sister Yu Mi-rae seemed to have a successful life while working for a public company in Seoul, but in fact, she was collapsing due to bullying and isolation at work. Yoo Mi-rae, who received a cold phone call from her younger brother, even tried to make an extreme choice, and Yoo Mi-ji, who tried to prevent it, also fell into a crisis together.




Since then, Yu Mi-ji has proposed exchanging lives like a child who replaced each other's good work for her sister, and a special story that only twins can tell has begun in earnest.

Broadcasting ranked first in cable and general service at the same time with an average of 4.2% in the Seoul metropolitan area, a maximum of 5.5%, a national average of 3.6%, and a maximum of 5%. In particular, Park Bo-young delicately exchanged the feelings of her bright and lively younger sister, Yu Mi-ji, and her hurt older sister, Yu Mi-rae, and received favorable reviews from viewers.

Writer Lee Kang's warm sensibility, director Park Shin-woo's sensuous production, and the visual beauty of the stark contrast between Seoul and rural Duson-ri, 'Unknown Seoul' announced a successful start by increasing the density of emotions from the first episode. The second episode will air at 9:20 p.m. on the 25th.
