 'Dirt Potatoes' Kim Tae Ri finally appears..Web-tipping girl who made me fall for 'Jeong-nyeon'
'Jungnyeon' predicted Kim Tae-ri's performance.

tvN's Saturday-Sunday drama 'Jeongnyeoni' (written by Choi Hyo-bi, directed by Jung Ji-in) is set after the Korean War in the 1950s and depicts competition, solidarity, and brilliant growth over the 'natural sound genius' who challenges the best national drama actor. In the play, Kim Tae-ri is a natural Mokpo girl, Yoon Jeong-nyeon, showing off her bold charm.

In the 1st episode of 'Jeongnyeoni', which was unveiled on the 12th, the retirement age, who makes a living by selling fish in the market, shouted to attract customers, and the first encounters of the genre of Gukgeuk were depicted by Ok-kyung (played by Jeong Eun-chae), the top Gukgeuk star at the time who witnessed it by chance.

Kim Tae-ri completed the perfect retirement age based on her diverse expression and performed enthusiastically as if the character of the original webtoon had been revived. She not only embodied the fresh charm of the retirement age by boasting a visual like a earthen potato, but also captured the hearts of viewers by realistically portraying the boldness of speaking in a crowded market.

In particular, Kim Tae-ri is a model of retirement age recognized by the original author. Kim Tae-ri reads "As a webtoon lover, I don't know how to be dramatized like this, and when I encounter 'Jeongnyeon', I usually don't follow the protagonist and read it with my own face, but I don't read it with my own face. But this time, it was read with my face and my way of speaking. I was so grateful and honored when the writer said that it was based on me." As a result, Kim Tae-ri's enthusiastic performance, which seemed to have emerged from a webtoon, made viewers fall into the drama.

In particular, the twinkling eyes of Young-soo, who was overwhelmed by the atmosphere when he first encountered Gukgeuk, fully conveyed the tremor to the viewers, further enhancing the immersion of the work. In the second half of the play, the older sister (played by Oh Kyung-hwa), who supports her dream, expressed her feelings of gratitude and sorry coexisting with rich facial expressions, leaving a deep aftertaste.

With Kim Tae-ri's performance leading the play's narrative outstanding, tvN's Saturday-Sunday drama 『Jungnyeoni" will air the second episode at 9:20 p.m. on the 13th.
