Cha Joo Young Transforms Into A Hotel President Who Seeks Power In New Drama “Climax”
ENA’s upcoming drama “Climax” has unveiled new stills of Cha Joo Young in character! “Climax” follows the fierce survival story of prosecutor Bang Tae Seob (Ju Ji Hoon), who dives into a power-driven cartel in order to rise to the top of South Korea’s power ladder. Cha Joo Young plays Lee Yang Mi, the president of WR Hotel and a leading figure in the WR Group. She has shaped the power landscape where politics, business, and entertainment intersect. With the presidential election approaching, she is introduced as a strategist who has supported Nam Hye Hoon, mayor of Seoam and a rising presidential contender, while building strong connections. Lee Yang Mi reads the flow of events and makes choices that work in her favor, rather than being swayed by circumstances. On the surface, she appears elegant and composed, but underneath, she hides careful calculation and a desire for power. She will take even bolder actions the moment the world she has built begins to shake. The stills show contrasting moods. In one image, she turns back wearing a bold patterned fur coat, her calm gaze hinting at sharp judgment behind a glamorous exterior. In another still, dressed in black fur and wearing a relaxed smile, her unreadable eyes contrast with her soft expression, revealing an inner drive to take control of the situation. “Climax” will premiere on March 16 at 10 p.m. KST.
Im Soo Jung Dishes On Her Character In Upcoming Drama "Mad Concrete Dreams"
Im Soo Jung has shared her thoughts on her new drama “Mad Concrete Dreams”! “Mad Concrete Dreams” is a thriller drama that follows Ki Soo Jong (Ha Jung Woo), a struggling landlord who becomes entangled in crime to protect his family and property. While he achieves the coveted status of a landlord, mounting debts lead him to participate in a staged kidnapping. However, the plan spirals out of control as the fake kidnapping turns dangerously real. Im Soo Jung plays Kim Sun, the wife of Ki Soo Jong and a strong, sharp-minded woman. Kim Sun is a “steel mom” with an unmatched sense of reality who never loses her composure even in a crisis. She gave up her job as a nurse to focus on educating her daughter Da Rae, who has a hearing impairment, and now lives with the goal of supporting Da Rae’s studies abroad. When her husband—who bought a building by maxing out loans—starts behaving suspiciously, Kim Sun senses that something is off. Then, as she takes action for the sake of her daughter and family, she drives the story in an unpredictable direction. Im Soo Jung explained that choosing “Mad Concrete Dreams” was a genre challenge for her. She said, “Over the past few years, I wanted the projects in my filmography to expand in terms of genre. The film ‘Cobweb,’ the OTT series ‘Low Life,’ and then ‘Mad Concrete Dreams’—for me, they are projects that belong within a single chapter.” Speaking about her character Kim Sun, Im Soo Jung stated, “She is someone with the belief that her daughter and family matter more than the building. At a certain point, she ends up helping her husband Ki Soo Jong and getting involved in the incident. The two bicker in everyday life, but the moment Kim Sun decides she has to protect her family, exciting scenes unfold where she and her husband work in sync.” “Mad Concrete Dreams” is set to premiere on March 14 at 9:10 p.m. KST.
Lee Sung Kyung And Chae Jong Hyeop Enjoy A Sweet Business Trip In “In Your Radiant Season”
MBC’s “In Your Radiant Season” has shared a new glimpse of its next episode! “In Your Radiant Season” is a new romance drama about the love story between Sunwoo Chan (Chae Jong Hyeop), a man who lives each day like an exciting summer vacation, and Song Ha Ran (Lee Sung Kyung), a woman who has closed herself off as through trapped in a long winter. Spoilers In the previous episode of “In Your Radiant Season,” Sunwoo Chan expressed his feelings to Song Ha Ran, who had saved him twice. After losing her boyfriend, Kang Hyuk Chan (Kwon Do Hyoung), he decided to help her step out of the isolation she had locked herself in. In response, Sunwoo Chan suggested they have a “trial period” of being neighborhood friends during the three-month project. Ha Ran accepted his sincerity, and a new relationship began. However, after reuniting with Ha Ran, old triggers stirred Sunwoo Chan’s memories, causing confusion as new recollections surfaced. Meanwhile, Ha Ran grew increasingly curious about his attempts to keep his past completely hidden. The stills show Song Ha Ran and Sunwoo Chan on a date in Gyeongju as neighborhood friends on a “trial period.” They are seen taking photos beneath a beautiful ginkgo tree and in front of a quiet hanok, creating picture-perfect chemistry. Above all, their lingering gazes at each other catch the eye. Song Ha Ran’s growing curiosity and interest in Sunwoo Chan show clearly on her face, while Sunwoo Chan, in turn, shows a caring side as he constantly watches over her. After Sunwoo Chan’s honest confession, a subtle energy flows between them, adding to the excitement. Another still shows the Gyeongju site visit with staff from Can Studio, who came to Korea for an animation collaboration with designers from Nana Atelier. Against the backdrop of the sea, their camaraderie creates a bright, lively atmosphere, like students on a school trip. In particular, Song Ha Ran, long cautious about socializing, is seen smiling among the staff, offering a glimpse of the daily life she is slowly reclaiming with Sunwoo Chan. Meanwhile, Song Ha Ran returns to Seoul first to spend some time alone. Sunwoo Chan tells her, as she leaves ahead of him, that he has an assignment for her to complete in Seoul. It remains to be seen whether the Gyeongju site visit will bring another change in the relationship between Ha Ran and Sunwoo Chan. The next episode of “In Your Radiant Season” airs March 6 at 9:40 p.m. KST!

Yoo Yeon Seok Reveals He Prepared An Idol Dance Routine For His Role In New Drama "Phantom Lawyer"
Yoo Yeon Seok has shared his thoughts on his upcoming drama “Phantom Lawyer”! SBS’s “Phantom Lawyer” is a quirky yet heartwarming legal drama that follows the adventures of Shin I Rang (Yoo Yeon Seok), a lawyer who can see ghosts, and elite attorney Han Na Hyun (Esom) as they resolve the lingering grievances of their very unusual clients—ghosts—through the law. Explaining why he had been drawn to the drama, Yoo Yeon Seok recalled, “When I first read the script, I found the premise of a lawyer resolving the grievances of ghosts extremely entertaining. I was also intrigued by the fact that, thanks to the premise of [Shin I Rang] being possessed by multiple people, I could show a wide variety of different sides through one character.” He went on to describe his character by saying, “Shin I Rang is warmhearted and has a lot of affection for people, and he’s also a character who’s overflowing with pride and passion as a lawyer.” Because Shin I Rang is possessed by numerous ghosts over the course of the drama, Yoo Yeon Seok had to portray a variety of characters within one role. In terms of how he prepared for this demanding performance, the actor shared, “I paid close attention to the habits and gestures of the deceased. I observed the distinctive characteristics of the characters that appear in each episode, and when [Shin I Rang] was possessed by them, I tried to naturally infuse them into my acting.” He added, “When [my character] was possessed by a former idol trainee, I even practiced separately to prepare a dance routine.” Notably, “Phantom Lawyer” marks Yoo Yeon Seok’s first time playing a true comedic role. “I wanted to come across as more approachable and familiar than [I did] in my previous works, so I tried to act more freely and comfortably,” he revealed. “I hope that viewers enjoy the comedic situations that naturally arise from the premise of being possessed and find them fun to watch.” Yoo Yeon Seok also spoke enthusiastically about his experience working with his co-star Esom. “Even before filming began, Esom, who plays a lawyer character who is opposite in style from Shin I Rang, showed signs of having prepared seriously for the role,” he said, “and it was even more fun acting together with her.” “Above all, I was deeply impressed by how Esom fully threw herself into her acting for the comedic scenes, without holding anything back,” he continued. As for what viewers should look forward to in the drama, Yoo Yeon Seok teased, “I think it’d be good to look forward to seeing what kind of spirit Shin I Rang is possessed by each time, as well as how he will resolve their grievances and grow in the process.” He concluded, “The change in the relationship between Shin I Rang and Han Na Hyun as they team up and solve cases together, along with the new ghosts that continue to appear later on in the story, will deliver new and fresh entertainment every episode, so please give the drama lots of interest until the very end.”
