In tvN's new Saturday-Sunday drama Pro Bono (written by Moon Yoo-seok and directed by Kim Sung-yoon), which will premiere in December 2025, the script reading scene with Jung Kyung-ho, Soju-yeon, Yoon Nam- tree, Seo Hye-won, and Kang Hyung-seok was revealed, heralding the perfect chemistry of the actors.
'Pro bono' is a human courtroom that takes place when a snob judge who is desperate for success unintentionally becomes a public interest lawyer and is trapped in a corner room of a super large law firm and a public interest team with zero sales. Director Kim Sung-yoon, who demonstrated his solid directing skills with dramas 'Dark Moonlight', 'Itaewon Class' and 'Annara Sumanara', and writer Moon Yoo-seok, who has continued his legal drama succession with 'Devil Judge' and 'Miss Hammurabi', are drawing great attention.
Above all, it is raising expectations by establishing a solid lineup of actors. Jeong Kyung-ho, who has left a strong presence in each work with a wide range of acting, So Soo-yeon, who was loved for her delicate emotional acting, and Lee Yoo-young, who has a unique acting experience, will help. In addition, Yoon Nam-ri, Seo Hye-won, and Kang Hyung-seok joined to complete a trustworthy combination.
Meanwhile, news of the script reading scene, which showed the actors' passion for acting, is drawing attention. Actors, director Kim Sung-yoon, and writer Moon Yoo-seok attended the scene to share the beginning of the work in excitement and tension.
First, Jung Kyung-ho, who plays Kang Da-witt, a judge-turned lawyer in charge of public interest, vividly portrayed the inner side of a person who suddenly became a public interest lawyer in the influencer of the legal profession. In particular, he made the scene laugh by cheerfully expressing the confusion of Kang Da-Witt, whose situation was changed overnight in a slick mood.
So Soo-yeon, who plays Park Gi-ki, also drew attention by raising the atmosphere on the spot with her bouncy energy. So Soo-yeon naturally melted the personality of Park Joy, a legal fan who digs deep when she is hooked on one, creating admiration.
In addition, Yoon Nam-ri (played by Jang Young-sil), Seo Hye-won (played by Yoon Nan-hee), and Kang Hyung-seok (played by Hwang Jun-woo), who will unite as a pro bono team, also showed their characters' colors, drawing attention. The three, who showed realistic Tiki-taka and lively reactions, predicted a pleasant synergy of the pro bono team in the play.
The production team of `Pro Bono' said "Even though it was the first reading, the actors quickly worked together and showed stable teamwork"'Pro Bono' will convey the fun and catharsis to viewers at the same time through a pleasant and realistic court story, so please pay a lot of attention to it," he said.
