Get ready to see Kim Hee Sun, Han Hye Jin, and Jin Seo Yeon together in TV Chosun’s upcoming drama!
On June 26 KST, TV Chosun confirmed the main cast of its new drama “Because There Is No Next Life” (literal title) including Kim Hee Sun, Han Hye Jin, and Jin Seo Yeon. Yoon Bak is also reportedly joining the cast, playing the husband of Kim Hee Sun’s character.
“Because There Is No Next Life” follows the story of three 41-year-old women who are worn out from parenting and work. As they each set out on new challenges, the drama will portray the confusion and anxiety of entering their 40s in a heartfelt yet humorous way.
Kim Hee Sun will take on the role of Jo Na Jung, a former top home shopping host who gave up her career to become a housewife. Longing to return to the spotlight, she struggles to balance reality and her dreams.
Han Hye Jin will portray Gu Joo Young, a capable planning director of Korea’s premier art center. Although seemingly perfect, she suffers in silence due to her husband’s lack of sexual desire.
Jin Seo Yeon will play Lee Il Li, a stylish and successful associate editor at a magazine. Despite her thriving career, she still dreams of getting married.
The production team commented, “The story is centered on three women starting a new chapter at the age of 40, which will deeply resonate with women in their 20s to 50s.” They added, “It will be a refreshing and emotionally stirring drama that speaks to audiences ranging from young adults to those in middle age.”
“Because There Is No Next Life” is scheduled to premiere in November this year. Stay tuned!
