‘Please Take Care of the Five Eagle Brothers!’ Uhm Ji-won properly brought the character of Ma Kwang-sook to life and played the role of the weekend drama heroine to perfection.

In the KBS2 weekend drama ‘Please Take Care of the Five Eagle Brothers!’ (directed by Choi Sang-yeol / written by Koo Hyun-sook) that first aired on the 1st (Sat), Uhm Ji-won took on the role of Ma Kwang-sook, a cheerful and confident post office counter manager. She perfectly digests not only sweet romance but also comedy and deep emotional acting.

Uhm Ji-won caught the attention of viewers with her comedic acting in the beginning of the drama. When a robber burst into the post office, Gwang-sook showed off her quirky charm by sobbing and saying, “I‘m a bride who’s getting married in a week. I can‘t be an old maid who can’t even have a wedding ceremony.” Here, when Jang-soo Oh (Pil-mo Lee) approached the post office without notice, the scene where she struggled with her whole body to keep him from coming caused laughter.

Gwang-sook, who got married late, created a pink atmosphere with her sweet chemistry as a newlywed couple. In particular, Gwang-sook‘s cuteness as she kept shouting “Yeo-bong” as soon as she woke up doubled the loveliness. The perfect romantic synergy between Uhm Ji-won and Lee Pil-mo made viewers smile.

The bickering moments between Uhm Ji-won and Ahn Jae-wook also added to the fun. Gwang-sook engaged in a tiki-taka with Han Dong-seok (played by Ahn Jae-wook) by demanding money for repairs to her torn wedding dress, and then foreshadowed another meeting, stimulating curiosity about the future of their relationship.

In addition, Uhm Ji-won greatly increased the viewers’ immersion in the part where Gwang-sook runs to the hospital in a panic after hearing the shocking news that Jang-soo had been in a car accident not long after their marriage. Upon hearing the news of Jang-soo‘s death, Gwang-sook shed tears like a waterfall and soon collapsed. Uhm Ji-won left a lingering impression with her thick acting, which was 180 degrees different from her previously cheerful and lively image.

In this way, Uhm Ji-won once again imprinted the title of ‘Trustworthy’ through ‘Please Take Care of the Five Eagle Brothers!’. Uhm Ji-won’s performance, which perfectly expresses Ma Kwang-sook‘s joys and sorrows with her outstanding acting skills, is even more anticipated.

KBS 2TV’s weekend drama ‘Please Take Care of the Five Eagle Brothers!’, where you can feel Uhm Ji-won‘s diverse charms, airs every Saturday and Sunday at 8 p.m.
