'When the Phone Rings' takes Netflix by storm, scores new personal-best ratings
Kim Hae Sook and Jung Ji So's upcoming K-drama Who Is She dropped stills.
Who Is She is about a grandmother, Oh Mal Soon, who suddenly transforms into a 20-year-old, renames herself Oh Doo Ri, and enjoys a second chance at her golden days of youth.
In the drama, Kim Hae Sook takes on the role of Oh Mal Soon, a character with agile movements and a sharp voice. At over seventy, she is strong enough not to shed a tear no matter the situation and is meticulous.
Jung Ji So takes on the role of Oh Doo Ri, Oh Mal Soon's younger persona. Oh Doo Ri is an unpredictable character who swings between a 20-year-old and a 70-year-old woman. She bursts onto the scene in Jongno, and with her 70-year-old grandmotherly emotions in her "second life," she boldly pursues a singing career.
In the stills, Oh Doo Ri (Jung Ji So) is seen with her curly hair and bold patterned outfit. Oh Mal Soon (Kim Hae Sook) is seen wearing something similar.
In a scene where they gaze at each other, there is a hint of confrontation, particularly as Mal Soon hands Doo Ri a mysterious document and speaks with a serious expression, suggesting an unusual connection between the two.
The intriguing relationship between Mal Soon and Doo Ri also piques curiosity. As Mal Soon unexpectedly returns to her youthful self from 50 years ago, not only her appearance but her inner self gradually begins to change. Interest is also drawn to Doo Ri's story as she decides to chase her dream.
The production team of Who Is She shared, "Kim Hae Sook, a trusted actress, and Jung Ji So, with her strong acting skills, are truly a perfect match. Their acting synergy is phenomenal, and the chemistry they create on screen is extraordinary. The two characters, with unique personalities, they portray will bring unexpected fun to viewers. Please tune in to see how they portray Mal Soon from different generations."
Who Is She is scheduled to premiere in December. More news about the K-drama's global OTT service is yet to come.
