Um Hyun-kyung breathes lively energy into living rooms as an AI developer with 100% positive energy.
The new KBS 1TV daily drama Joyful Days for Us (directed by Lee Jae-sang, written by Nam Seon-hye), set to premiere in March, is an all-or-nothing life-and-death battle between the world's most perfect man and a clumsy woman! It is a romantic family drama created by diverse generations who each want to be the protagonist of their own lives.
Um Hyun-kyung will portray Jo Eun-ae, developer and co-CEO of the AI Start - Up "Lucky Joy," revealing a lovable charm. Jo Eun-ae is the daughter of lecturer (played by Kim Hye-ok) and Jo Seong-jun (played by Sunwoo Jae-deok), and stands out for her human warmth and clumsiness between her brilliant older brother Jo Eun-hyung (played by Choi Sungwon) and her medical student youngest sibling Jo Eun-nim (played by Kim Na-ri). One day, living with her characteristic optimistic attitude, Jo Eun-ae suddenly loses the AI friend Joy that she painstakingly developed, and through this she becomes entangled with Ko Gyeol (played by Yoon Jong-hoon), head of strategy planning at Kangsu Construction.
In the stills released today (26), Um Hyun-kyung delicately draws Jo Eun-ae's three-dimensional emotional arc with a variety of expressions. Her bright smile reveals her own vivacity, putting viewers in a good mood, and the unpretentious character hidden in her plain attire amplifies the character's appeal.
In contrast, another still shows Um Hyun-kyung with a determined look and a shocked expression, foreshadowing a crisis. What trial has come into the life of someone who always showed a bright smile and how she will overcome it already has viewers curious. Viewers' curiosity about the tumultuous developments of Joyful Days for Us, led by Um Hyun-kyung, rises as her acting skill flexibly navigates the amplitudes of emotion.
In this regard, the production team of Joyful Days for Us said, "From image to acting, Um Hyun-kyung is Jo Eun-ae herself," and added, "Please look forward to Um Hyun-kyung's 'all-purpose moments' that bring the character and the drama to life," increasing excitement for the broadcast.
Meanwhile, Joyful Days for Us, a new KBS 1TV daily drama born from the collaboration of director Lee Jae-sang, recognized for his warm and meticulous direction in Once Again and Father Is Strange, and writer Nam Seon-hye, who showcased trendy writing in Sujimadeun Uri and Amor Fati—Love Now, is set to premiere in March as the successor to Marie and Her Three Daddies.
