The script reading site of ‘Villain‘s Country’ has been revealed.

KBS 2TV’s new Wednesday-Thursday sitcom ‘Villain‘s Country’ (directed by Kim Young-jo, Choi Jung-eun / written by Chae-woo, Park Kwang-yeon), scheduled to premiere in March, is a situational comedy drama that captures the sometimes rough and sometimes warm daily lives of the K-ajumma sisters and their witty family.

With the news of the appearances of trustworthy actors such as Oh Na-ra (as Oh Na-ra), So Yoo-jin (as Oh Yu-jin), Seo Hyun-chul (as Seo Hyun-chul), Song Jin-woo (as Song Jin-woo), and Park Young-gyu (as Oh Young-gyu), attention is focused on the drama, and in the video released today (the 12th), all the famous actors boasting solid acting skills gathered in one place and spread a hot laughter virus.

Oh Na-ra plays the role of Oh Na-ra, the family’s biggest villain. He perfectly immersed himself into the character at the script reading site and brought out the laughter with his lively K-housewife image. Oh Na-ra, who is also a dictatorial housewife who leads her family in her own way, showed off amazing chemistry with her husband Seo Hyun-chul. The role of Oh Yoo-jin, Nara‘s younger sister and Jin-woo’s wife, is played by So Yoo-jin. Yoo-jin boasted perfect chemistry with Nara, who lives next door, as real-life sisters. In particular, So Yoo-jin‘s savory dialect acting is said to have made the set burst into laughter.

Seo Hyun-chul gave a passionate performance as Seo Hyun-chul, Nara’s husband and the one who always gets serious. Hyun-chul, the head of the Nara family who fights a lonely war for his family‘s survival, is said to have livened up the show with his salty comic acting. Song Jin-woo, who is Hyun-chul’s brother-in-law and works in the same company department, is also played by Song Jin-woo. He showed off his chemistry with Hyun-chul and Cha-jin, transforming into the eldest son at the bottom of the family hierarchy and properly displaying a funny and sad side. Park Young-gyu, who played the father of Nara and Eugene, Oh Young-gyu, gave enjoyment with his cheerful and witty acting.

On the other hand, Choi Ye-na, who transformed into Na-ra‘s guest house member Gu Won-hee, expressed the character’s personality with a chic tone, and Han Sung-min, who played Nara and Hyun-chul‘s child Seo In-a, and Jung Min-gyu, who played Seo Young-hoon, each drew attention by portraying the diverse charms of their characters. In addition, Eun-chan, who gave a passionate performance as Eugene and Jin-woo’s child Song Kang, showed off his shining presence.

In addition, Jo Dan (as Song Ba-da), Shin Shin-ae (as Choi Kwang-ja), Park Tam-hee (as Kim Mi-ran), Kim Deok-hyun (as Kim Sang-moo), and Noh Min-woo (as Cha Bin) showed off solid acting skills, firmly supporting the center of the play and adding vitality. The actors who make you feel secure just by hearing their names have gathered in full force, heightening the anticipation for the actual broadcast.

Lastly, after the script reading, Oh Na-ra said, “There‘s a line in the drama that says, ’Let‘s go to our house. ’Villain‘s Country’ is a story about a house where people live, and I think the atmosphere of our drama can be felt in that line.” Then, So Yoo-jin said, “I think our drama is more fun to watch with your family. You can laugh a lot and confirm your love for each other. I ask for your interest and love,” raising curiosity about the drama.

KBS 2TV‘s new Wednesday-Thursday sitcom ’Villain‘s Country’ is scheduled to air in March as a follow-up to ‘Kik Kik Kik.’
