'My girlfriend is a tomboy' Yoo Jeong-hoo transformed into the biological character Kim Ji-hun of Kim Ji-eun (Arin), who became a man overnight while wearing cherry-patterned frilly pajamas with a rabbit hairband.
The new KBS 2TV drama 'My girlfriend is a tomboy' (written by Lee Hae-na, directed by Yoo Kwan-mo), which will premiere on the 23rd, is based on the popular Naver webtoon 'My girlfriend is a tomboy' (by Mastar). It depicts the romantic chaos between Kim Ji-eun (Arin), who suddenly transforms into a flower boy, and Park Yun-jae (Yoon San-ha), who can't give up on his girlfriend. Director Yoo Kwan-mo, known for his stylish direction in 'Police Class', 'The Lady in Dignity', and 'Perfume', teams up with acclaimed writer Lee Hae-na, generating significant anticipation.
Yoo Jeong-hoo plays Kim Ji-eun's biological character Kim Ji-hun in 'My girlfriend is a tomboy'. Kim Ji-hun is a character who, despite having the inner self of a woman, suddenly transforms into a man one day. Unable to let go of his feelings for his boyfriend Park Yun-jae, he experiences turmoil as he inadvertently attracts people's attention with his new flower boy appearance.
In relation to this, the scene where Yoo Jeong-hoo makes his first appearance as Kim Ji-hun in 'A Thunderbolt Transformation' has been revealed, capturing attention. The scene depicts the chaos Kim Ji-hun (Yoo Jeong-hoo) faces upon discovering he has turned into a man overnight. Having slept with a rabbit hairband and a face mask, Kim Ji-hun finds his pajama pants suddenly too short and his frilly pajamas uncomfortably tight due to his bulging muscles, leading to a comical situation. Upon seeing his reflection in the mirror, Kim Ji-hun expresses his shock with a lion's roar. Even while being splashed with water, his visual shines, and attention is drawn to how the fate of the flower boy Kim Ji-hun will unfold.
Meanwhile, Yoo Jeong-hoo, for the most intense role of his filmography as Kim Ji-hun, is proving his exceptional character portrayal through fearless and immersive performances. He dynamically expresses the cuteness, tears, and jealousy of Kim Ji-hun, who is essentially a woman inside, enhancing the drama's immersive quality.
Yoo Jeong-hoo remarked, "I found the script really enjoyable from the start, and I finished filming with great joy, eagerly awaiting the airing. I'm so happy that such a fun drama is finally being released." He also shared his expectations, highlighting the confusion of Ji-hun, who suddenly became a man and possesses Ji-eun's inner self. He hopes viewers will empathize with Ji-hun's feelings and believes they will find it entertaining to see how Ji-hun gradually adapts to his new male appearance.
Finally, Yoo Jeong-hoo added confidently, "I believe that viewers will enjoy watching it as much as we had fun filming it with friends of the same age." He urged viewers to tune in for the live broadcast starting from July 23rd, every Wednesday and Thursday.
The production team praised, "Yoo Jeong-hoo is an actor who impresses us every time we shoot. It's beautiful to see him put effort into every small detail to bridge the gap with the character." They also stated, "In 'My girlfriend is a tomboy', viewers will witness a new side of Yoo Jeong-hoo like never before. Be sure to catch the broadcast."
