Director Jung Ji-in said about the character Boo Yong, which was deleted from the original, "I melted it into another character as a whole."

The production presentation of tvN's new Saturday-Sunday drama 『Jungnyeoni" (written by Choi Hyo-bi, directed by Jung Ji-in) was held in Conrad Seoul, Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul on the afternoon of the 10th. Director Kim Tae-ri, Shin Ye-eun, Ra Mi-ran, Jung Eun-chae, Kim Yoon-hye and Jung Ji-in attended the event.

Director Jung Ji-in said "Buyong's symbolism was great in the original. There was the identity of the fan, the identity of the queer code, and the subjectivity to move forward as a subjective woman, but rather than being included in any one character, there are parts that can be shown in our drama as a whole by consulting with the writer and consulting with actors on the spot. You'll find out if you watch the drama."

Based on the Naver webtoon of the same name (writer Seo Yire/Namon), Jung-nyeon is a work that contains the competition, solidarity, and brilliant growth period surrounding the 'natural sound genius' who challenges the best national drama actor set after the Korean War in the 1950s. Director Jung Ji-in, who has been recognized for his directing skills through the drama 『Clothes Sleeve Red End』 using the fresh material of women's Gukgeuk, will take the megaphone. Kim Tae-ri (played by Yoon Jeong-nyeon), Shin Ye-eun (played by Heo Young-seo), Ra Mi-ran (played by Kang So-bok), Jung Eun-chae (Moon Ok-kyung), Kim Yoon-hye (Seo Hye-rang), Moon So-ri (Seo Yong-rye), and Lee Deok-hwa (played by Gongseon) will be in the work.

'Jungnyeoni' will premiere at 9:20 p.m. on the 12th.
