tvN's new Monday-Tuesday drama "Illustrated Love" (written by Jung Yeo-rang, directed by Kim Gar-ram) is a drama about a national actor who has lost his originality and an entertainment reporter who is desperate for justice. It is expected that the bitter chemistry between the top star and the entertainment reporter, who is involved in a cheeky bad relationship, will provide empathy and excitement in a different smile in the spectacular entertainment industry, where odd events break out every day. Accordingly, four days before the first broadcast, I pointed out three points to watch 'Increase Your Enthusiasm' that are more attractive because they are cheeky.
▶ Director Kim Garam and author Cha Jung-sook of Doctor Chung Yeo-rang are in sync
The fact that it is the next film by the production team that guarantees the success makes the drama fans even more excited. Director Kim Gar-ram, who worked across genres such as 'Good Partner'I Know', and writer Jung Yeo-rang, who caused a syndrome with 'Doctor Cha Jung-sook', are in charge of other fun. Director Kim Ga-ram said, "Ugly Love" is not a difficult drama that anyone can watch comfortably. We expect the bright energy of Lim Hyun-joon (Lee Jung-jae) and Wi Jung-shin (Im Ji-yeon) to reach viewers as well." Director Kim Garam, who cited the play in the drama that made Lim Hyun-joon a national actor as another point to watch, said, `There are signature action scenes in which Kang Pil-gu's performance stands out, although his fist is ahead from season 1 to season 4 to express the beloved national drama in the play. I hope you become a fan of Kang Pil-gu's action as you worked hard in various locations"It raised expectations. Finally, "I hope you enjoy the unprecedented feast of Lee Jung-jae and Lim Ji-yeon's comic performances comfortably." It's fun to watch with anyone, and it's a fun drama to watch alone. Please watch it a lotexpected by saying "
▶ an eerily perfect synergy of the `Trust and treasure'
The meeting between Lee Jung-jae, Lim Ji-yeon, Kim Ji-hoon, and Seo Ji-hye, which will complete an ironically pleasant synergy, is by far the best viewing point. Lee Jung-jae is Lim Hyun-joon, a national actor specializing in criminal affairs who wants to be reborn as a melodrama master, and gives a pleasant and seasoned comic performance. Lim Ji-yeon plays the journalist Wi Jung-shin, who moved from the political ace to the entertainment department. Expectations are high on whether the political ace, who won the youngest journalist award, will be able to show off his appearance once again, and his adaptation to the left-handed entertainment department. Kim Ji-hoon plays Lee Jae-hyung, who started a new life as the president of Sports Eun-sung from a baseball star loved by the whole nation, giving off a sweet charm. Seo Ji-hye turns into Yoon Hwa-young, the youngest director of the entertainment department who has never been a member of Sports Eun-sung, and returns with a cool-headed yet soft charisma. The production team's trust in the actors is also extraordinary. Director Kim Ga-ram said, `All four actors have considerable acting skills and play unique characters in all works. `I wanted to show you a new side of the four actors in 'Mean Love'' Lee Jung-jae has already played various roles, but he wanted to show that there is also a new side as an actor that people did not imagine. Lim Ji-yeon will also show a different lovely and comical side from her previous work. Kim Ji-hoon showed a special affection for the actors, emphasizing that he has a comfortable and sweet charm compared to his intense previous works, and Seo Ji-hye will also show a new charm that can attract both men and women of all ages.
▶ Veteran X acting newcomers who will double comic synergy are here
There is also a combination of acting veterans and newcomers who will add fun to Choi Gui-hwa, Jeon Seong-woo, Kim Jae-cheol, Na Young-hee, Jeon Soo-kyung, Kim Hyun-jin, and Jin Ho-eun, and Oh Yeon-seo, who also make a special appearance. Choi Gui-hwa will play the role of Hwang, the manager who has been with Lim Hyun-joon since his debut, and present a pleasant 'Brochemistry'. Oh Yeon-seo makes a special appearance as Lim Hyun-joon's past lover and global star Kwon Se-na, revealing her extraordinary presence. Park Byung-ki, the author of the "Good Detective Kang Pil-gu" series, is played by Jeon Sung-woo and inspires unpredictable laughter. Kim Jae-cheol is Lee Dae-ho, the older brother of Lee Jae-hyung (Kim Ji-hoon) and a successful entertainment entrepreneur, and is in charge of the tension of the drama. Na Young-hee is a sexy star in the 70s and Lim Hyun-joon's mother, Sung Ae-sook, and Jeon Soo-kyung is an incumbent actor Oh Mi-ran, who is Lee Jae-hyung's real mother and a chaebol owner. Kim Hyun-jin plays Lim Sun-woo, a medical student who is Lim Hyun-joon's younger brother and thirsty for acting, and Jin Ho-eun plays Wi Hong-shin, a late-born younger brother of Wi Jung-shin and aspiring actor, adding vitality to the extraordinary 'Chin' vibes. Director Kim Garam said, "(Like a comedy drama, the more actors come together, the more comic synergy it will be," raising expectations for a variety of relationships that characters full of personality will complete.
Meanwhile, tvN's new Monday-Tuesday drama 'Illustrated Love' will premiere at 8:50 p.m. on November 3rd.
