The eventful second half of Jung Ji-so‘s life is bringing joy and sorrow.

In the KBS 2TV Wednesday-Thursday drama ‘Miss Granny’ (directed by Park Yong-soon/ written by Heo Seung-min), which airs every Wednesday and Thursday at 9:50 PM, Jung Ji-so is experiencing a turbulent second half of her life as a 20-something Oh Doo-ri with the emotions of a 70-something grandmother.

Doo-ri, who suddenly joins the debut lineup of Eunice Entertainment’s idol group, is the subject of envy and jealousy from members Soo-jin (played by Hyun Jae-yeon), Min-ah (played by Lee Ji-hyun), Ola (played by Yoo E), and Jay (played by Seo Won).

In addition, Doo-ri creates a romantic atmosphere with Eunice Entertainment producer Daniel Han (played by Jin-young) and engages in a tense war of nerves with Eunice Entertainment president Kim Ae-shim (played by Cha Hwa-yeon), raising the tension of the drama to the max.

Let‘s look back at the second episode of Doori’s life, which becomes more exciting as the episodes go on.

● Ji-so Jung restores her relationship with the trainees

Daniel mistook Mal-soon for Emily (played by Ji-so Jung), who is preparing to be a singer at Eunice Entertainment, after seeing her, and thought she had lost her memory. Mal-soon, who started training again, was scolded by the trainees. She changed her name from Mal-soon to Doori and approached Soo-jin, Min-ah, Ola, and Jay with kind hearts, but they did not accept Doori as a team member, which made viewers feel sorry.

Despite this, Doori did not slack off on her dance practice so as not to be a burden, and took care of Soo-jin, who was sick, giving her warm emotions. Soo-jin also felt grateful to Doori for taking such good care of her and opened her heart. Viewers‘ anticipation is rising as to whether Doori will be able to achieve perfect harmony with the trainees and succeed in the debut that she has been dreaming of.

● Jung Ji-so, confrontation with former rival Cha Hwa-yeon

Doo-ri, who found out that Eunice Entertainment was the company that Ae-shim stole her song from in the past, showed a cold attitude toward her. Ae-shim, who was displeased with Doori’s behavior, thought of a way to kick her out of the company. Ae-shim investigated Doori and found out that she was related to Oh Mal-soon (played by Kim Hae-sook). It is raising curiosity as to whether Ae-shim realized that Doori was Mal-soon and how the two‘s never-ending bad relationship from the past will unfold.

● Jung Ji-so X Jin-young X Yoo Jung-hoo, what will be the end of the love triangle?

Daniel and Park Joon (played by Yoo Jung-hoo) got into a fight with Doori in the middle. The younger Jun actively approached his first love, Doo-ri, and Daniel defended him so that Joon could not approach Doo-ri. Instead of Joon approaching her, Doo-ri created a strange atmosphere with Daniel and spent cozy time alone. Who will Doo-ri, who is being attacked by two men, end up with? Doo-ri’s second life romance will shake the hearts of viewers.

The 9th episode of KBS 2TV‘s Wednesday-Thursday drama ‘Miss Granny’ will air on Wednesday, the 15th at 9:50 p.m.
