Popular South Korean singer and actress Kim Se-jeong is set to charm viewers once again as she takes on the lead role in the upcoming romantic comedy drama "Drunken Romance". The ENA network's new Monday-Tuesday drama is scheduled to premiere on November 4th at 10 PM.
In "Drunken Romance," Kim Se-jeong will play the character of Chae Yong-ju, a former special forces member turned legendary sales representative at a liquor company. Her character is described as having a steel-like physique, strong mentality, and a cheerful personality - all qualities that make her excel as the "sales queen".
The drama tells the story of a woman who naturally hides her emotions and a man who routinely catches others' emotions. Kim Se-jeong's character is paired with Lee Jong-won, who plays the role of a sensitive brewery owner. This unique premise promises a fresh take on the romantic comedy genre.
The main cast of "Drunk Romance" also includes Shin Do-hyun and Baek Sung-chul, forming a quartet of young adults with diverse personalities and tastes. The group poster released by the production team showcases the chemistry between these four characters, heightening anticipation for the series.
During recent promotions, Kim Se-jeong expressed her enthusiasm for the project, saying, "The set is filled with laughter, and we're constantly giving each other energy". This positive atmosphere is expected to translate into delightful on-screen chemistry between the lead actors.
"Drunk Romance" is written by Lee Jung-shin and directed by Park Sun-ho. The drama promises to deliver a refreshing take on youth romance, blending humor with the theme of alcohol. It will be simultaneously released on Genie TV, expanding its accessibility to viewers.
Fans of Kim Se-jeong, known for her previous work in "Business Proposal," are eagerly anticipating her return to the small screen in this new role. With its unique premise, talented cast, and the palpable chemistry already evident in promotional materials "Drunk Romance" is poised to become a must-watch series for K-drama enthusiasts this fall.
