Channel A's new Saturday-Sunday drama 'My lovely journey' (planned by Channel A/directed by Kang Sol/written by Jeong Hoe-hyun/produced by Big Ocean ENM) is a healing trip emotional drama that depicts the process of discovering true success and the meaning of life as a travel reporter, who has never been the center of attention, undertakes commissioned trips. Through the fresh concept of 'proxy travel', it aims to deliver overwhelming visuals capturing beautiful landscapes both domestically and internationally, as well as deep empathy and comfort through the stories of clients with various backgrounds. Additionally, the perfect acting ensemble of actors with different charms, including Gong Seung-yeon, Yoo Jun-sang, and Kim Jae-young, is expected to provide viewers with true healing and emotional moments, blending with a warm human story.
In the newly released stills, Gong Seung-yeon perfectly immerses herself in the character of Kang Yeoreum, a five-year travel reporter with diverse charms, capturing attention.
In the first still, she is seen wearing a neat sky-blue shirt and microphone, smiling brightly in front of the camera. Gong Seung-yeon's radiant visuals against the clear and refreshing background provide a pleasant energy just by looking at them, showing her professionalism as a reporter and leaving a deep impression.
Especially, her serious expression during the shooting conveys a sense of calmness typical of a five-year veteran, while her warm smile offers comfort. In subsequent stills with a more casual outfit, glimpses of Yeoreum's daily life as a close-contact reporter are visible. The unadorned, natural look and friendly expressions reflect Yeoreum's positive energy and warm humanity, causing viewers to smile as well.
The final still showcases a scene from a travel destination against a backdrop of lush nature, perfectly embodying the core theme of the drama, 'proxy travel.' Yeoreum, seen skillfully carrying a backpack and crossbody bag instead of a microphone, completes her travel-optimized style, drawing attention. Moreover, her expression shows a mix of excitement for new challenges and a subtle tension, raising expectations for the changes and growth she will experience. Overcoming the pain of her past as an idol, Yeoreum steadily walks her own path, making the growth story she will embark on through proxy travel all the more intriguing.
The production team stated, 'The character Kang Yeoreum in the drama has become an even more three-dimensional and charming character through her connection with Gong Seung-yeon,' and expressed confidence that 'Gong Seung-yeon's unique charm and acting skills will provide viewers with deep emotional resonance and healing. You can look forward to it.'
