Jung Eun Chae may be taking on a new role in an upcoming office drama.
On April 7, reports revealed that Jung Eun Chae is in talks to join Ryu Seung Ryong in jtbc’s upcoming drama ‘The Story of Manager Kim Who Owns a Home in Seoul and Works at a Major Corporation’ (literal title). Her agency, PROJECT HOSOO, confirmed that she is currently reviewing the offer.
Based on the popular webtoon of the same name, the drama tells the story of Kim Nak Soo, a seasoned corporate worker who seemingly has it all: a stable job, a loving family, and a house in Seoul—until he begins to lose his grip on both his professional and personal life.
Ryu Seung Ryong plays the titular role, while Myung Se Bin and Cha Kang Yoon are confirmed to appear as his wife and son. Jung Eun Chae is reportedly being considered for an original character created specifically for the drama, adding a fresh layer of intrigue to the adaptation.
Following her highly acclaimed performance in ‘Jeongnyeon: The Star Is Born,’ and with buzz already building around her possible casting in ‘Honor’ alongside Lee Na Young, fans are eager to see which project she takes on next.
With the possibility of Jung Eun Chae stepping into a brand-new role, anticipation runs high to see how she might bring depth and nuance to this heartfelt office drama, and how she could make this original character her own.
