MBC has released photos from the first scripting reading from their upcoming drama Wonderful World (원더풀 월드), starring Kim Nam Joo, Cha Eun Woo, Kim Kang Woo, and Im Se Mi.
Wonderful World is an emotional thriller about a woman who seeks revenge after the tragic loss of her son. When the culprit manages to evade punishment through the legal system, she decides to pursue justice on her own.
Kim Nam Joo stars as Eun Soo Hyun, a renowned psychology professor and writer whose happy life in a perfect family takes a drastic turn following the tragic loss of her young son. During the script reading, she masterfully portrayed a spectrum of emotions, seamlessly transitioning between the motherly warmth Eun Soo Hyun exudes when she's with her husband Kang Soo Ho and son Kang Kun Woo, and the explosive emotions triggered after her son's tragedy.
Kim Nam Joo, reflecting on her decision to join the drama, shared, "As a mother raising two children, the profound maternal love deeply resonated with me." Cha Eun Woo expressed, "The drama offers a myriad of heartwarming emotions as individuals with similar pain find healing in each other."
Cha Eun Woo takes on the role of Kwon Sun Yool, a young man born into an affluent family who opts to drop out of medical school and leads a rough life afterward until he unexpectedly becomes entangled with Eun Soo Hyun. Despite Kwon Sun Yool's outward cold demeanor, Cha Eun Woo skillfully unveils the warmth within through nuanced expressions and dialogue.
Kim Kang Woo takes on the role of Kang Soo Ho, a former journalist turned successful anchorman, whose life takes an unexpected turn following the tragic loss of his son. Skillfully depicting the transformation of his character’s demeanor, Kim Kang Woo portrays a man initially characterized by a strong sense of justice, only to evolve over time as his family falls apart after an unforeseen crisis.
Im Se Mi portrays Han Yoo Ri, the CEO of a boutique shop, who is like a real sister to Eun Soo Hyun. With a deep regard for the lives of both Eun Soo Hyun and Eun Soo Hyun's mother, Han Yoo Ri will bring forth delightful and heartwarming chemistry in her sister-like relationship with Eun Soo Hyun throughout the drama.
Wonderful World will premiere March 1 on MBC.
