‘Villain‘s Country’ Oh Na-ra, Seo Hyun-chul, Choi Ye-na, Han Sung-min, and Jung Min-gyu are uniting as a comic family.

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 on the 19th (Wed), is a situational comedy drama that captures the sometimes rough and sometimes warm daily lives of the K-ajumma sisters and their witty family.

In the drama, Oh Na-ra plays the role of Oh Na-ra, a dictatorial housewife who dominates her family, and Seo Hyun-chul plays Seo Hyun-chul, Nara’s husband and sensitive boss. Choi Ye-na plays the role of Goo Won-hee, who bickers with Nara but ends up living in his house and becomes like a real family member. Here, Nara and Hyun-cheol‘s eldest son, Seo In-a, is played by Han Sung-min, and the youngest son, Seo Young-hoon, who attends the same school as Won-hee, is played by Jung Min-gyu.

Amidst the heated interest with the release of a group poster earlier, today (the 7th), Oh Nara (as Oh Nara), Seo Hyun-cheol (as Seo Hyun-cheol), Choi Ye-na (as Goo Won-hee), Han Sung-min (as Seo In-a), and Jung Min-gyu (as Seo Young-hoon) will unite as an all-time villain family and show off colorful chemistry. Let’s take a look at Nara‘s family relationships.

● Dictator housewife Oh Nara - Sensitive boss Seo Hyun-cheol

Nara keeps her eventful love life a secret for the sake of Hyun-cheol, who was conservative. After that, Nara cannot hide her swaying competitive spirit and takes control of her family. Hyun-cheol then sets out to find the villain who is harming his mental health. Attention is focused on whether Hyun-cheol will be able to figure out the identity of the villain who is harassing him among the MZ company employee, his wife Nara, his disobedient child, his sister-in-law Oh Yu-jin (played by So Yu-jin) who lives next door, and his brother-in-law Song Jin-woo (played by Song Jin-woo). In addition, anticipation is rising for the amazing chemistry between the dictatorial housewife Nara and the sensitive boss Hyun-cheol.

● The story of the guest Choi Ye-na

Won-hee is an elite among elites who is competing for 1st and 2nd place in the entire school with Yoo-jin’s son Song Kang (played by Eun-chan). Growing up in a wealthy family, she suddenly faces a turning point in her life. Won-hee becomes her guest when Nara finds out about her private life that no one knew about. What incident changed the life of the rich daughter Won-hee, and what kind of tiki-taka chemistry she will have with her family after entering Nara‘s house, raising curiosity. Also, Won-hee said she would be Yeong-hoon’s love coach so that he can achieve his first love, and attention is focused on their cooperation.

● Real-life siblings Han Sung-min - Jung Min-gyu

Nara and Hyun-chul‘s daughter Lee Na, despite her innocent appearance, is like her mother, a hot-tempered womanizer and a talker. She is above Young-hoon’s head, and she orders him to run errands all the time and even takes his allowance. As a result, Young-hoon writes lyrics expressing his resentment and anger toward his spoiled older sister Lee Na and dreams of becoming a rapper. The K-siblings‘ chaotic daily life stimulates the curiosity of viewers, and the colorful stories that the two will present add to the interest.

In this way, Nara’s family plans to convey empathy, emotion, and laughter with their comical and cheerful daily life. Indeed, how they will lead the play and the story of Oh Na-ra, Seo Hyun-chul, Choi Ye-na, Han Sung-min, and Jeong Min-gyu, who boast fantastic acting chemistry, are making people curious.

KBS 2TV‘s new Wednesday-Thursday sitcom ‘Villain’s Country’ will first air on the 19th (Wednesday) at 9:50 p.m.
