‘Please Take Care of the Five Eagle Brothers!’ has released a refreshing six-person poster.

The new KBS 2TV weekend drama ‘Please Take Care of the Five Eagle Brothers!’ (directed by Choi Sang-yeol / written by Koo Hyun-sook), scheduled to air on Saturday, February 1 at 8 PM, is a drama that depicts a mature family story created by the five unique brothers of the long-established Eagle Brewery and the eldest sister-in-law who suddenly becomes the head of the household after her husband‘s sudden death just ten days after her marriage.

The six-person poster released on the 8th (today) captures the cheerful appearances of the six unique characters, piqueing curiosity.

First, Uhm Ji-won (as Ma Kwang-sook), who plays the post office window manager Ma Kwang-sook, steals the spotlight. Wearing a strong red suit, he is leading the way, holding a megaphone and smiling brightly. This shows Gwang-sook’s positive personality and strong character that will lead his younger brothers.

On the other hand, Ahn Jae-wook (played by Han Dong-seok), who plays the role of Han Dong-seok, the chairman of LX Hotel, stands with his arms crossed and expressionless, making us feel Dong-seok‘s firm and cold side. It makes us wonder what kind of stories he will portray between Gwang-sook, whose personality is the complete opposite of his, and Gwang-sook’s younger brothers.

On the other hand, Gwang-sook‘s four younger brothers-in-law, Choi Dae-chul (played by Oh Cheon-soo), Kim Dong-wan (played by Oh Heung-soo), Yoon Park (played by Oh Beom-soo), and Lee Seok-gi (played by Oh Kang-soo), are also interesting. They each wear green onions, broken gourds, kettle lids, and cabbages on their shoulders and heads, and stare solemnly straight ahead, showing off their extraordinary force. The four people, each with their own unique story, come to trust and follow Gwang-sook completely after going through hardships.

In addition, the part where makgeolli and pajeon are refreshingly poured over the heads of the six people makes us anticipate a refreshing story like cider, and makes us look forward to the many events that will unfold in Eagle Brewery.

In addition, the phrase ‘The ragtag five brothers unite over makgeolli!’ on the poster catches the eye, making us curious about how the five brothers, who have been through all kinds of hardships, will change through Eagle Brewery.

In relation to this, the production team of ‘Please Take Care of the Five Eagle Brothers!’ said, “As you can see from the poster that was released, the six unique characters will bring big laughter to the living room theater with their colorful comical plays”, “As the six characters become entangled, ‘Please Take Care of the Five Eagle Brothers!’ Please look forward to how the story will be drawn,” he said.

KBS 2TV’s new weekend drama ‘Please Take Care of the Five Eagle Brothers!’ is the follow-up to ‘Iron Family’ and is scheduled to premiere on Saturday, February 1 at 8 p.m.
