tvN's Saturday-Sunday drama 'Jungnyeoni' (written by Choi Hyo-bi, directed by Jung Ji-in) is a drama that depicts competition, solidarity, and brilliant growth over Young-soo, who challenges the best national drama actor after the Korean War in the 1950s. In the second episode, the average viewership of households in the metropolitan area was 8.9% and up to 10.0%, and the highest viewership in the metropolitan area surpassed double digits in just two episodes, while proudly ranking first in the TV-OTT drama hot topic survey in the second week of October.

Among them, 'Jeongnyeon' side raises expectations for the show by releasing a heartwarming two-shot of Heo Young-seo (Shin Ye-eun) and Moon Ok-kyung (Jeong Eun-chae), the two major mountain ranges leading the Maeran Gukgeuk Company's line of male characters, ahead of the third episode on the 19th.
In the previous broadcast, Ok-kyung, Maeran's most popular star, was depicted not only recognizing the talent of Min Young-yi (Kim Tae-ri) during a tour of Mokpo and proposing to join the Maeran National Theater Company as a researcher, but also giving full support to him by selecting him as the next male role to succeed him. As a result, the retirement age is being jealous of the members who came into Mae-ran with Ok-kyung on their back, while sharply confronting Young-seo, who has been ranked as the 0th in the next male station based on his outstanding skills.
The released still shows Young-seo and Ok-kyung practicing wood swordsmanship alone on a side of the Maeran Gukgeuk Company on a night when everyone is asleep, raising interest. The stylish figure of the two men holding the wooden sword in their hands seems to illuminate the darkness around them. At the same time, Youngseo exudes charisma like an elite successor through spirited and motivated gestures, while Okgyeong responds with dignity and leisure, and shines the aura of the crown prince of the national drama world, arousing the exclamation of those who see it.
On the other hand, Youngseo looks very reminded of her time with Ok-kyung, a senior actor. Ok-gyeong also seems to be responding to her younger colleagues with a warm smile. However, as Ok-gyeong once predicted the retirement age as the next prince to succeed her, it makes us wonder what she really thinks about Young-seo. At the same time, attention is being paid to what kind of stories will unfold in the future surrounding the national drama world, which presents such exciting relationships.
tvN's Saturday-Sunday drama 'Jungnyeoni', which began to revive the popularity of Gukgeuk on the small screen in 2024, will air on the third episode at 9:20 p.m. on the 19th.
