KBS 2TV's new Wednesday-Thursday drama 「Laughing」 heralded a new burst of laughter with the synergy of veteran actors Ji Jin-hee, Lee Kyu-hyung, and new actors.

Actors Ji Jin-hee, Lee Kyu-hyung, Baek Ji-won, Lee Min-jae, Jeon Hye-yeon, Jeong Han-seol, Kim Eun-ho, Jeon So-young and Baek Seon-ho attended the production presentation held on the morning of the 5th to raise expectations for the work.

'LOL' is an office comedy-drama in which Ji Jin-hee, a 10 million actor, and Cho Young-sik, a one-time star producer, set up a content production company and aim for 3 million subscribers. Director Koo Sung-joon said "Laughter has different codes and tastes. Various styles of comedy are included in one piece so that viewers can enjoy the 'customized gag' that they want"I hope it will be a work that can be healed in a tough life while maximizing the charm of Sitcom."




Ji Jin-hee, who challenged traditional comedy through this work, said, `I've been talking about wanting to try sitcoms for a long time. It's a genre I enjoy watching, and I really wanted to try it someday, but I got a good opportunity to do it. "I'm having fun filming with a serious but awkward character," he said. Lee Kyu-hyung is also comfortable and enjoyable in the comedy genre. Serious acting is good, but I'm happier when I act in a bright and lovely atmosphere. "The team work is good, and it's not forced laughter, but a work that naturally exudes joy."

The kiss scene between Ji Jin-hee and Lee Kyu-hyung, which was released in the trailer, drew attention. Lee Kyu-hyung is close to a very violent emotion and fighting scene, but as he followed the flow of emotions, he even hit his lips. It was awkward because it was the beginning of the shoot, but at the same time, it was a fun experience." Ji Jin-hee also said "It was before we became close to each other, but we quickly became close with this scene. Since then, filming has become much easier and more fun."

Six new actors with individuality will join this work to bring fresh energy. Kim Sun-ho (played by Lee Mark) introduced "Characters with strong voice and other skills" and "I wanted to express Mark's pure sensibility of being able to make true love" Jeon So-young (played by Ga Joo-ha) said "A character full of high tension and lovely charm" and "I was able to act naturally because there were many similarities to me.", he explained. Kim Eun-ho (played by Kang Tae-ho) is "Tae-oh's greatest charm" and added, "He is serious and responsible when he is serious, but it was fun to show him a slick side of himself." he said.




Jeong Han-seol (played by Noh In-seong) said "It is characterized by excessive passion, but unexpectedly, a person who truly loves people" and "You will be able to feel humanity through personality." Jeon Hye-yeon (played by Hwang Ui-yeon) was confident, saying, "I am a web novel writer during the day, but I have an unexpected charm who writes 19 gold novels at night. I think I can convey a fresh sensibility." They agreed that they learned a lot by being with their seniors on the set. Lee Min-jae said "The seniors made the scene comfortable, so bold ad-libs were possible."I expressed my appreciation. "I had a lot of questions, but it was an honor to be able to receive not only acting but also field experience generously," Baek Seon-ho said.

'Giggle' is an authentic sitcom style that was not easily seen in existing Korean dramas. Director Koo Sung-joon said, `A lot of sitcoms are produced seasonally overseas. We also want to create a world view that grows"Viewing is important, but I want to make it more fun than that. I hope it can lead to a season."
