In the first episode of the Genie TV original drama 『My Star』, which premiered on the 18th, Uhm Jung-hwa led the center of the play by playing the role of a top star volunteer (= Im Sera), who was killed for 25 years.
'My Golden Star' is a time-honored romantic comedy about Korea's top star after she becomes an ordinary middle-aged woman overnight.
Bong-cheong, who opened his eyes at the hospital after the car accident, gave a big laugh from his first appearance, wandering around consciously like a top star without being aware of the flow of time. In particular, Dokgo-cheol (Song Seung-heon), who I encountered by chance, showed an unusual first encounter with sunglasses, doubling the fun of the play.
Upon learning that he was in retrograde memory loss, the volunteer never believed that 25 years had passed. Bong Cheong-ja, who was greatly shocked by her changed appearance in the mirror, strongly denied the reality and burst into sad tears, further raising expectations for the future story.
Um Jung-hwa perfectly digested the character of a volunteer who blew away 25 years' worth of memories overnight, making viewers immerse themselves at once just by appearing. Although it is stopped in the memory of top star Im Sera, the reality created a pleasant atmosphere of the play by capturing the situation of Bongcheong-ja, a middle-aged woman in her 50s, with elaborate and lively acting.
From the appearance of Bong Cheong-ja, who still believes that he is top star Im Sera, to Tiki-taka chemistry with Dokgo-cheol, to emotional changes facing memory loss and confusion, he played an active role in meeting expectations in three dimensions. In addition, the rich curly hair hairstyle and facial blush makeup completely changed the visual, further highlighting the lovely charm of the character.
Expectations are even higher on how Uhm Jung-hwa, who gave off a strong presence from the first broadcast and set her sights on the home market, will capture viewers in 「My Star」.
Meanwhile, Uhm Jung-hwa's new acting transformation will air 'My Golden Star' every Monday and Tuesday at 10 p.m. on the channel ENA. Immediately after the actual broadcast, KT Genie TV will exclusively release it as a free VOD, and OTT will be released through TVing.
