Lim Ji-yeon of SBS's Friday-Saturday drama My Royal Nemesis hinted at a comic action show that will surpass the viral "Jang Hee-bin possession" meme and the "home shopping sellout show." This time she will make a radical transformation into a "female Kim Du-han" who confronts injustice.
My Royal Nemesis (directed by Han Tae-seop, written by Kang Hyun-joo, produced by StudioS·Gil Pictures) is a romantic comedy drama like a powder keg war between unnamed actress Shin Seori (played by Lim Ji-yeon), who becomes "vicious" after being possessed by the soul of history's most notorious Joseon villainess, and Cha Segye (played by Heo Nam-jun), a vicious chaebol called a monster born of capitalism. Episode 3 recorded a peak rating of 6.7% and 5.8% nationwide, setting another series high and continuing a rising syndrome.
In the previous broadcast, Shin Seori's awakening as she seriously pursued her dream of becoming an "actor" was depicted in an exciting way. While working part-time at a mart, she snapped at rival Yoon Ji-hyo's (played by Lee Se-hee) performance on TV and spontaneously delivered a possessed method queen performance that provoked laughter, and at the end of the broadcast Cha Segye established a new agency, "B.O.J. Entertainment," for Seori and made a sudden move to sign her, which capped the episode.
Meanwhile, My Royal Nemesis announced that in episode 4, which airs today (the 16th) at 9:50 p.m., Shin Seori will once again stir the 21st century with a "one against a hundred" action display.
In released stills, Shin Seori grabs her fist with a grim expression and faces off against burly men, piquing curiosity. This is a scene of her mercilessly punishing hired thugs who bully others, and her dazzling moves that topple thugs more than twice her size draw admiration. In the drama within the drama, after being deeply moved by the drama Ya-insi-dae, Seori appears to be possessed by Kim Du-han, who used to punish street ruffians, and unfolds a comic action spectacle.
In particular, this "Kim Du-han action show" is expected to become a powerful killing point following the earlier buzz-generating "Jang Hee-bin possession" meme. According to reports, during filming Lim Ji-yeon's possessed-level comic performance poured out as if she put her soul into it, and her physical dedication that spared no effort devastated the set.
Director Han Tae-seop, who directed the show, said the scene in episode 4 where Seori is possessed by Kim Du-han from Ya-insi-dae is undoubtedly among the top three comic signature scenes of Lim Ji-yeon, and his generous praise has exploded anticipation for the broadcast.
