Actor Jung So-min proved the power of a Rocco actor who believes in and sees through 'WJMerimi'.

In the 3rd and 4th episodes of SBS Friday-Saturday dramas "Woju Merimi" (written by Lee Ha-na, directed by Song Hyun-wook and Hwang In-hyuk), Jung So-min was fully immersed in Yumeri and showed the essence of life-friendly acting by freely exchanging everyday laughter and emotions.

Earlier, Mary led the play by proposing a fake husband to Kim Woo-joo (Choi Woo-sik), who has the same name as her ex-fiancé, in order to protect the giveaway of a high-end honeymoon house.




In the third episode, Mary hid in her dog's house to avoid Woo-joo's aunt (Baek Ji-won) when Woo-joo, who is posing as a fake couple, was on the verge of being discovered by her family. This scene drew laughter with Chung So-min's unique slick comic sense.

On the other hand, Jung So-min delicately portrayed the weight of reality that cannot be covered by pleasure alone. Mary, who came to work with Woo-joo's company, participated in the dinner and expressed her disappointment by misunderstanding that Woo-joo had confided the fake couple to Yoon Jin-kyung (Shin Seul-ki). Jeong So-min raised the corners of the mouth of those who saw it as a natural drunken smoke.

Since then, Mary has been in danger of being caught in front of her co-worker while filming a self-wedding with space. As a result, Mary approached the surprise kiss of the universe and raised her sweet excitement and romantic tension to the fullest.




Mary added to her sorrow by collapsing when her mother found out about the breakup. Mary, who received a call from Jeon Woo-ju's sister that her mother had come home, swallowed tears weakly and burst into tears. Jung So-min expressed the mixed feelings of injustice and sadness in a delicate and restrained manner, leaving an inkling aftertaste. At the end of the fourth inning, real ex-fiancé Kim Woo-joo appeared in front of Mary, stimulating curiosity about how the future development will unfold.

As such, Jung So-min has firmly established the center of the play by excellently digesting a wide range of emotions from laughter to excitement and tears. Even within the romantic comedy genre, detailed emotional acting and pleasant energy are exchanged to add a three-dimensional effect of the character. After the show, viewers watched Jung So-min's dialect acting so well that the story became more perfect because Mary gave the doll to the universe", "Mary is so nice. Why did you give it all to him? "Jung So-min is so good at acting. Mary made me cry and laugh so hard..."The combination of Jeong So-min and her first love is just for sure. I'm so excited."

Meanwhile, SBS's Friday-Saturday drama 'WJMerimi' airs every Friday and Saturday at 9:50 p.m.
