Actress Uhm Ji-won transforms into a widow taking care of her four younger siblings. She will take on the role of the ‘eldest sister-in-law’ of a brewery family who boldly pioneers her own life in the KBS 2TV weekend drama ‘Please Take Care of the Five Eagle Brothers!’, which will be aired for the first time on February 1st, and will take charge of the weekend home theater.

In the drama, Uhm Ji-won plays the role of Ma Kwang-sook, who runs the brewery Eagle Brewery with her unique younger siblings after losing her husband ten days after getting married. Despite her strange fate, she is a character who never gives up and bravely shouts to her non-blood-related younger brothers, “Please drop the ‘sibling’ and be my younger brother.”

Choi Dae-chul, Kim Dong-wan, Yoon Park, and Lee Seok-ki have joined forces as the bumbling younger brothers who follow the ‘head’ of the family, Uhm Ji-won. Whenever they are in danger, Uhm Ji-won steps forward in front of her younger brothers and shows the true face of a father.

Uhm Ji-won is also the focal point of the ‘Five Eagle Brothers’ teamwork. At a production conference held at the Ramada Seoul Sindorim Hotel in Guro-gu, Seoul on the 22nd, Uhm Ji-won said, “The actors of the ‘Five Brothers’ are all so good-natured. “We’re having fun filming because we’re all surrounded by such nice people,” she said. “Even without having to stress about our brotherhood separately, our teamwork is already solid. We’re so close that I’m excited to see what kind of relationship we’ll have by the time we finish filming,” she said, showing off her camaraderie with her colleagues.

What’s interesting is that Yoon Park, who worked with a married couple in tvN’s ‘Postpartum Care Center’ in 2020, reunited with her as the eldest sister-in-law and younger sibling this time. Uhm Ji-won said, “We became close personally after ‘Postpartum Care Center’, so filming is comfortable.” In this drama, I filmed a scene where I was holding a baby with my younger brother Yoon Park, and I laughed for a long time saying to (Yoon) Park, ‘Aren‘t we used to this scene?’.

He also develops a romantic relationship with Ahn Jae-wook, the chairman of LX Hotel. Uhm Ji-won expressed confidence in the success of the drama, saying, “It will be a gift-like piece that will give a little joy to my parents as an actor, as well as the viewers.”
