Channel A‘s new weekend drama ‘The Witch’ has released a second teaser video containing the fateful reunion of Park Jin-young and Noh Jung-eui, drawing attention.
Channel A’s new weekend drama ‘The Witch’ (directed by Kim Tae-kyun, written by Jo Yoo-jin, planned by Channel A, produced by Showbox, Mr. Romance, overseas distribution by A&E Korea) is a mystery romance between ‘Dong-jin’ (Park Jin-young), a man who tries to break the laws of misfortune surrounding women called witches, and ‘Mi-jeong’ (Noh Jung-eui), a woman who has become the seed of tragedy and has cut herself off from the world, and who end up saving each other after a journey that they do not give up on. It is a dramatization of the popular webtoon ‘The Witch’ by Kang Full, the author of ‘Moving’, ‘The Lighting Store’, and ‘The Fool’. Director Kim Tae-gyun, who showed off his dense directing skills through the movie ‘Dark Figure of Crime’, is in charge of directing, and with his sensuous interpretation, expectations are high for the birth of a well-made drama with a high degree of perfection. The meeting of actors Park Jin-young and Noh Jung-eui, who have already received enthusiastic responses from fans of the original work for their high character synchronization, is another point of anticipation for this work.
The video released today (the 19th) begins with Dong-jin‘s narration after meeting Mi-jung again after a long time. Dong-jin, who was unable to confess his feelings for Mi-jung in high school, sees her by chance on the subway. Recalling those days long ago, he says, “There must be a reason why you and I have met again after going around and around for a long time.”Because people who are meant to meet will definitely meet someday,”, he sensed his fate toward Mi-jung.
Meanwhile, Mi-jung has become a hermit from the world. After being branded a ‘witch’ and leaving school on her own, with the misfortune of those who liked her getting hurt or dying, her life was so completely alone that she thought, “Can’t I live without meeting people?”. The one person who came to her when she had no one else was Dong-jin. He is going to embark on a dangerous journey to bring Mi-jeong back into the world. His firm voice, “I will definitely find a way. I will help her find her lost daily life”, ripples with the great waves of love and salvation.
The production team of ‘Witch’ said, “The second teaser video released today (19th) contains a fateful reunion where Dong-jin begins a journey to save Mi-jeong despite the risk of death and accident. Dong-jin, the only person who doesn‘t believe she is a witch, will uncover the law of misfortune with the will to help her find her lost daily life. Inside is writer Kang Full’s unique worldview of salvation and love. He said, “Please wait with interest and affection until the first broadcast, which is about a month away.”
Channel A’s new weekend drama, ‘The Witch’, which is taking over the baton from the hit ‘Check-In Hanyang’, will first air on Saturday, February 15th at 9:10 PM, and will meet viewers through A+E KOREA’s exclusive global distribution, releasing it simultaneously worldwide on February 15th.
