A fairy tale-like story unfolds.

The production team of JTBC‘s new Saturday-Sunday drama ‘More Beautiful Than Heaven’ (directed by Kim Seok-yoon, written by Lee Nam-gyu and Kim Soo-jin) released a couple poster full of warm emotions, Lee Hae-sook (played by Kim Hye-ja) and Go Nak-joon (played by Son Seok-goo), on the 14th.

‘More Beautiful Than Heaven’ is a romance that transcends present life as Lee Hae-sook, who arrives in heaven in her 80s, reunites with her husband Go Nak-joon, who has become young in his 30s. Lee Hae-sook’s life in heaven, where she begins her second life at the end of life called death, will present warm emotions beyond pleasant laughter.

‘More Beautiful Than Heaven’ is a work in which director Kim Seok-yoon and writers Lee Nam-gyu and Kim Soo-jin, who previously worked together on ‘Hip’, ‘Dazzling’, and ‘Awl’, have once again joined forces. Kim Hye-ja, Son Seok-gu, Han Ji-min, Lee Jung-eun, Chun Ho-jin, and Ryu Deok-hwan star.

The poster released by the production team captures the happy moments of Lee Hae-sook and Ko Nak-joon, who reunited after death instead of parting. It is not clear where the two people who met again in heaven have finally arrived, but their holding hands and smiles facing the same place against the dazzling golden background somehow warm the heart. The phrase ‘I hope you are happy’ added above also catches the eye. The heartbreaking sincerity of the two people who want each other‘s happiness more than their own is conveyed, and it touches the heart.

Another phrase, ‘Heavenly Ever After’, the English title of ‘More Beautiful Than Heaven’, also piques curiosity. It is inspired by the idiom ‘Happily Ever After’, which often refers to the eternal happiness of the main character at the end of a fairy tale. This is not the end of life’s book, but it makes us anticipate the next page that the two people who have entered another life will write. What will be the true happy ending for the couple, Lee Hae-sook and Ko Nak-joon, who dream of new happiness with a love that transcends life and death?

Kim Hye-ja plays the role of ‘Lee Hae-sook’, an 80-year-old wife who reunites with her husband who returned to his 30s in heaven, and shows off a lovely acting transformation. Lee Hae-sook, a veteran fighter who dominated the daily life, dies at the age of 80, and unlike others, she lives a second life in heaven at her true age. Son Seok-goo plays the role of ‘Go Nak-joon’, Lee Hae-sook‘s loving husband and heavenly postman who delivers letters of wishes from the earth, and challenges himself with a different kind of romance. Ko Nak-joon’s life in heaven, where he built a pretty house and waited for his wife, also changes because of Lee Hae-sook who appears in her 80s.

‘More Beautiful Than Heaven’ will be first broadcast on April 19th at 10:30 PM.
