Gong Hyo-jin, Oh Jung-se, Heo Nam-joon, and Lee Cho-hee begin a mission with a mission in mind.

The new tvN Saturday-Sunday drama ‘Ask the Stars’ (written by Seo Sook-hyang, directed by Park Shin-woo), which will be aired for the first time on the 4th, is a work that depicts the extra-Earth life of Eve (played by Gong Hyo-jin), a boss working in a zero-gravity space station, and an uninvited dinosaur (played by Lee Min-ho) with a secret mission.

According to the production team, space scientists Eve Kim, Kang Kang-soo (played by Oh Jung-se), Lee Seung-joon (played by Heo Nam-joon), and Mina Lee (played by Lee Cho-hee) conduct research on various diseases occurring on Earth through experiments on living things, including animals and plants, in a space station where everything weighs 0 grams. During their research, scientists eat and sleep with their experimental subjects, fruit flies and mice, and build a special intimacy with them.

Eve Kim and Seungjun Lee, scientists in charge of mice, and Kang Kangsu, a scientist in charge of fruit flies, are struggling to find a way to treat human diseases through living organisms in the weightless space of space. Since space has many variables, everything, from fruit fly breeding to surgical operations on mice, takes place in an environment different from Earth.

Therefore, Eve Kim, Seungjun Lee, and Kang Kangsu‘s experiments will not go smoothly. We wonder whether Eve Kim, Seungjun Lee, and Kang Kangsu will be able to achieve the results they want in the space station.


Meanwhile, Mina Lee, a scientist in charge of plants, is researching whether it is possible to cultivate plants in space, away from the increasingly warming Earth. She has a sense of mission to solve humanity’s food problem by cultivating plants in space. Attention is focused on whether Mina Lee, who is always worried that her lettuce or tomato leaves might get moldy, will be able to complete her mission in space.

In this way, ‘Ask the Stars’ will provide fresh fun and things to see through the process of space scientists Eve Kim, Kang Kang-soo, Mina Lee, and Lee Seung-jun struggling inside the space station to carry out their respective missions.

‘Ask the Stars’ will first air at 9:20 p.m. on the 4th.
