Lee Jinwoo and Choi Gyuri open the curtain on a rocky romance between two families who have become sworn enemies.
The new KBS 2TV miniseries Schim Woomen Yeonriri, set to premiere on the 26th (directed by Choi Yeonsoo, written by Song Jeongrim and Wang Hyeji), is a family reboot healing drama about the authentic city family Seong Tae-hoon clan, who suddenly fell into the pristine yet fierce(?) district "Yeonriri," struggling to stage a comeback in Seoul.
Schim Woomen Yeonriri released stills today (the 16th) showing the "brand-new newcomer" Seong Tae-hoon (played by Park Sung-woong) family, who moved to Yeonriri after a sudden transfer, and the long-established Yeonriri family led by Im Ju-hyung (played by Lee Seo-Hwan). The intriguing relationships visible from the stills alone already whet viewers' appetite to tune in to the broadcast.
First, Seong Tae-hoon, who moved to Yeonriri to start farming, and Im Ju-hyung, who has long protected the village, draw attention with their bickering relationship from their first meeting. Seong Tae-hoon dives into cabbage farming to facilitate his return to Seoul, but Im Ju-hyung, the long-established Yeonriri figure, keeps him in check with a sharp attitude and clashes with him at every turn. In particular, because Im Ju-hyung's hostility toward Seong Tae-hoon is related to Seong Tae-hoon's company "Matstory," the rivals' chemistry is expected to add to the drama's entertainment through the latter episodes.
Meanwhile, amid the tumultuous stories of the two families, Seong Tae-hoon and Im Ju-hyung's children, Seong Ji-cheon (played by Lee Jinwoo) and Im Bo-mi (played by Choi Gyuri), feel a strong attraction to each other at first sight and grow their excitement. But the two find themselves in a dilemma because of their parents' conflict, and another story blossoms in the village. Expectations grow for how their emotions will ripple through their families' daily lives and stir the once peaceful village with their Yeonriri-style romance.
In addition, Seong Tae-hoon's wife Jo Mi-ryeo (played by Lee Soo-kyung) and Im Ju-hyung's wife Nam Hye-sun (played by Nam Kwon-ah) are also expected to inject energy into the series by engaging in a turf war centered on the Yeonriri women's association.
Schim Woomen Yeonriri, set to dominate Thursday night, is directed by Choi Yeonsoo, who co-directed Pump Up the Healthy Love, Crazy Love and Chief of Staff, and is co-written by Song Jeongrim, who wrote My Merry Marriage and The Bride of the Typhoon, and Wang Hyeji, who wrote Romance Without Dating.
