Last year, the most outstanding actresses in their 30s, going back and forth between entertainment and drama, Ahn Eun-jin and Go Min-si, the ‘trendy actress duo’, will continue their ‘trendy streak’ this year. The two, who have shown off their diverse charms in every work, from their innocent appearances to their spiteful villain roles, are expected to show off their new charms this year with a bouncy romance drama.

Ahn Eun-jin even received Kim Eun-sook‘s ‘pick’

Ahn Eun-jin, who caused viewers’ ‘Gilchae Nangja suffering’ with her heartbreaking melodrama in MBC‘s ‘Lovers’, will show off a lighter and cuter romantic acting in SBS’s ‘Kissing for No Reason!’, scheduled to air in September. She plays the role of Goda Rim, a single woman who pretends to be a mother and gets a job at a childcare product company called MotherTF to make a living, and she will have exciting chemistry with Jang Ki Yong, who plays Gong Ji Hyeok, the leader of the TF team who falls for Goda Rim.

One of Netflix‘s most anticipated dramas of the year, ‘Everything Will Come True’, is also about to be released. ‘Everything Will Come True’ is a romance drama by ‘star writer’ Kim Eun-sook who captivated the world with ‘The Glory’, and is her first in five years since ‘The King: Eternal Monarch’, and is receiving much anticipation from both inside and outside the industry.

The drama depicts the story of ‘overemotional’ Genie (Kim Woo-bin) and ‘emotionless’ Ga-young (Suzy), who hold the power over each other’s life and death, fighting over three wishes that may be either good luck or punishment. Ahn Eun-jin plays the role of Mi-joo, a mysterious woman who lives with Ga-young, and is in charge of the drama‘s mystery.

Go Min-si, from romantic comedies to independent films

Go Min-si, who received much love for her outstanding acting skills shown in her works last year and her impressive charm in the entertainment show ‘Seo Jin’s Family’, will present the ENA drama ‘Your Taste’ in May. It is a drama that depicts the war-like romance between a conglomerate heir (Kang Ha-neul) who tries to inherit a food company and a chef (Go Min-si) who runs a one-table restaurant. It is expected to be a complete departure from her previous role as a ruthless villain in ‘In the Forest Where There Is No One’.

She will also meet the audience in the film ‘Master of the World’. Director Yoon Ga-eun, who received rave reviews from critics at home and abroad for her independent films ‘Us’, ‘Our House’, etc., will present the unexpected events that Joo-in (Seo Soo-bin), an ordinary 18-year-old high school student, experiences one day. Go Min-si appears as one of the main character‘s surrounding characters.

It is known that Go Min-si readily agreed to appear in this film despite receiving a series of love calls from big commercial films due to her love for independent and diverse films. The agency said, “Go Min-si is a long-time fan of Director Yoon Ga-eun and gladly participated. We hope that it was of some help, even if it was small.”
