KBS 2TV's new miniseries 'Sim Woo-myeon Yeon-ri-ri,' which will offer a dopamine detox to Thursday living rooms, released a Highlight video ahead of its premiere.
The new KBS 2TV miniseries 'Sim Woo-myeon Yeon-ri-ri,' which is scheduled to premiere today (26) at 9:50 p.m. (directed by Choi Yeon-su, written by Song Jeong-rim and Wang Hye-ji), is a chaotic family reboot healing drama about the true urban family Seong Tae-hoon household, who fell straight into the pristine yet perilous(?) area 'Yeon-ri-ri,' struggling to return to Seoul.
The Highlight video released on the 25th opens powerfully with Seong Tae-hoon (played by Park Sung-woong), a former cabbage researcher who became a director general at the major food company 'Matstory.' Seong Tae-hoon announces the start of a twisted future as he is unexpectedly reassigned and enters the rural 'Yeon-ri-ri,' and unlike his wife Jo Mi-ryeo (played by Lee Soo-kyung), who complains of headaches after facing a house that seems ready to collapse at any moment, he steels his resolve toward the goal of successfully developing cabbage.
But Im Joo-hyung (played by Lee Seo-Hwan), the village's real authority, shows hostility toward Seong Tae-hoon's company 'Matstory' and officially declares, "Do not ever help Seong Tae-hoon," creating a strange tension in Yeon-ri-ri. Seong Tae-hoon is doused by sprinkler water bombs and rolls in piles of cow manure as Im Joo-hyung's sabotage gives the village initiation ceremony into Yeon-ri-ri(?) a proper comic moment. The veteran village chief Im Joo-hyung watches with interest without extending a helping hand despite the desperate cries, foreshadowing an unusual confrontational dynamic between the two. It hints that there is a hidden backstory between Im Joo-hyung and Seong Tae-hoon's company 'Matstory,' arousing curiosity.
Meanwhile, amid the villagers' sabotage, Jo Mi-ryeo also seeks a breakthrough by joining the women's association, but she is blocked by the sharp gaze of the association president Nam Hye-seon (played by Nam Kwon-ah). Eventually Seong Tae-hoon explodes in anger, saying, "That village chief is a really bad man," hinting that adapting to Yeon-ri-ri will by no means be easy.
Unlike the fierce conflict between the parental generations, the children's fresh romance evokes a different kind of excitement. The eldest son of Seong Tae-hoon and Jo Mi-ryeo, Seong Ji-cheon (played by Lee Jinwoo), and Im Bo-mi (played by Choi Gyu-ri), the only daughter of Im Joo-hyung and Nam Hye-seon, are strongly drawn to each other. In particular, Seong Ji-cheon creates a pink-tinged atmosphere with a candid confession: "When I'm next to Ms. Bo-mi, even difficult problems seem to become simple, so I like it." However, contrasting with the sweet atmosphere between the two, the rough grab by the collars between Seong Tae-hoon and Im Joo-hyung adds to the tension, making viewers' palms sweat.
As farm life becomes more serious, conflicts in the Seong household explode. Seong Ji-cheon, who rebels against his father Seong Tae-hoon saying he will decide his own life, and Jo Mi-ryeo, who vents her anger by blaming her husband for the situation, evoke realistic sympathy. But Seong Tae-hoon rekindles his fighting spirit, saying, "Dad will not give up," and the family expresses bewilderment at his suddenly changed attitude. The resolute will lasts only briefly, and Seong Tae-hoon's cry of "What should I do!" raises expectations for their turbulent daily life.
