tvN's new Saturday-Sunday drama 『Jeongnyeon』 (written by Choi Hyo-bi, directed by Jung Ji-in) depicts the competition, solidarity, and brilliant growth period over 『Natural Sound Genius』, which challenges the best national drama actor after the Korean War in the 1950s. Director Jeong Ji-in, who directed 'Clothes Sleeve Red End Dong', takes the megaphone, raising expectations with the participation of Kim Tae-ri (played by Yoon Jeong-nyeon), Shin Ye-eun (played by Heo Young-seo), Ra Mi-ran (played by Kang So-bok), Jeong Eun-chae (Moon Ok-kyung), Kim Yun-hye (Seo Hye-rang), and special appearances such as Moon So-ri (Seo Yong-rye) and Lee Deok-hwa (played by Gongseon).
Above all, 'Jeongnyeon' is attracting attention in that it presents the subject of 'Women's Gukgeuk' for the first time in a drama. Women's Gukgeuk is a genre of national musical theater that was popular around the 1950s, and it is a pioneering comprehensive performing art in which women took on all roles and performed not only sound but also dance and acting. In "Jeongnyeoni", the most popular national theater company of the time, Maeran Gukgeuk Company, and the sound genius Young-soo, who came to Seoul in Mokpo with a dream of becoming a national drama actor, will unravel the attractive character of the group and various stories surrounding the national drama world at the time, and will vividly convey to viewers the charm of women's Gukgeuk, a national culture that has not been known so far. In addition, episodes related to the powerful fandom of the Korean drama world at the time, which are not envious of the current K-pop idols, will be incorporated into various parts of the work to stimulate interest.
On the other hand, it is also worth paying attention to the preparation process for realizing Gukgeuk. Like the actual Gukgeuk actors, the actors of 'Jungnyeoni' who had to digest a variety of plays, including 'Chunhyangjeon', went through a long training period to acquire various skills such as sound, dance, and stage acting. In particular, Kim Tae-ri, who plays the main character 'Yoon Jeong-nyeon', put great emphasis on sound practice because it was an urgent task to imitate the talent of an innate singer well. I think I practiced sound for about 3 years from 21. Sound, dance, dialect, and Gukgeuk stage practice continued at the same intensity as before until the filming was over. Not only me, but all the actors who participated were like that, suggesting the efforts made so far.
In addition, Kim Tae-ri filmed "big stage performances four to five times. It was a big challenge for everyone and it was their first attempt, so they all wandered in their own positions. I remember that after each stage, I returned with director Jung Ji-in and prepared for the next performance. When it was over, I didn't take a breather, but it was the beginning of a new thought about what to do next," he said. As a result, curiosity is heightened on the main broadcast about what the product of the 'Jungnyeoni' team, which was fiercely struggling to provide a lively national drama stage to viewers, will look like.
tvN's new Saturday drama 'Jungnyeoni', which is creating unusual expectations in the content market, is scheduled to premiere at 9:20 p.m. on Saturday, October 12, based on such scarce and valuable materials.
