The production, which will premiere on November 10, is a comic drama about the growth period of 43 friends who are tired of child-rearing wars and working life every day. It tells the stories of those who want to live their lives well once again in a period of immortality called the second puberty. Producer Kim Jung-min of 『The Love Story of Flower Sun-bi" and writer Shin Yi-won of 『Green Mothers Club" directed the play.
Leading actors such as Kim Hee-sun, Han Hye-jin, Jin Seo-yeon, Yoon Park, Heo Jun-seok, and Jang In-seop attended the script reading site. Even though it was their first meeting, they showed off their perfect chemistry and heated up the scene.
Kim Hee-sun took the center stage of the play with realistic acting, transforming into Jonah Jung, who used to be a show host with a multi-billion-year salary but is now a mom of a hard-working girl. Han Hye-jin took on a new challenge as Koo Joo-young, the director of the planning department of the art center, who suffers from infertility behind her perfect life. Jin Seo-yeon gave off a strong presence as Lee Il-ri, deputy editor of a magazine with a fantasy about marriage.
Yoon Park as Tsundere husband, Nowon-bin, Heo Jun-seok as Bae Sang-gyu, who brings his friends to life, and Jang In-seop as Oh Sang-min, her immature husband, showed delicious acting. Their perfect harmony quickly made the script reading scene 'Acting Restaurant'.
The production team said, `All actors poured out their energy in the first script reading, raising expectations,' and"It will be a work that will bring out generational sympathy with the pain of growing up."
