‘More Beautiful Than Heaven’ Kim Hye-ja turns heaven upside down.
JTBC‘s new Saturday-Sunday drama ‘More Beautiful Than Heaven’ (directed by Kim Seok-yoon, written by Lee Nam-gyu and Kim Soo-jin, produced by Studio Phoenix and SLL), which will premiere on Saturday, April 19, released the third teaser video on the 18th, which contains the dangerous heaven-adapting period of Lee Hae-sook (played by Kim Hye-ja), who awakens her mischievous instincts in heaven.
‘More Beautiful Than Heaven’ is a romance that transcends the present life as Lee Hae-sook, who arrives in heaven in her 80s, reunites with her husband Go Nak-joon (played by Son Seok-goo), who has become younger looking in his 30s. The life in heaven of Lee Hae-sook, who starts her second life at the end of life called death, presents pleasant laughter and warm emotions.
Following ‘The Light in Your Eyes’, which is considered to be the life drama of many, director Kim Seok-yoon and writers Lee Nam-gyu and Kim Soo-jin, who heralded the birth of another life’s work, have reunited. In addition, Kim Hye-ja, Son Seok-goo, Han Ji-min, Lee Jung-eun, Chun Ho-jin, and Ryu Deok-hwan, who are working with director Kim Seok-yoon once again, have joined the cast, raising the expectations of drama fans even more.
In the meantime, the third teaser video that was released catches the eye by capturing Lee Hae-sook‘s life in heaven, with the phrase ‘New resident Lee Hae-sook turns heaven upside down’, and properly marking her as a person of interest to the center director (played by Chun Ho-jin). At the church she visits to repent, she teaches the pastor (played by Ryu Deok-hwan) how to do an odd pose, while Som-i (played by Han Ji-min), a pure soul who has lost all her memories, makes people laugh by looking like she has already learned everything she has seen and learned. The director of the center says, “Heaven seems more fun than before, doesn’t it? It seems like a lot of changes started with you, Hae-sook,” and the affectionate yet meaningful words make Hae-sook begin to doubt whether she has come to the wrong place in heaven.
However, one day, as her unusual behavior continues despite the director’s supervision, mysterious grapes suddenly start to fall on Hae-sook’s head. Despite the pastor’s warning that “If you get one more grape, you will really go to hell,” and her husband’s request, Hae-sook also ends up falling in another unfamiliar place, not heaven, as soon as the last grape falls from the sky. Unlike heaven, in a dark and gloomy atmosphere, Lee Hae-sook’s tense expression buried among frightened people hints at her crisis.
Meanwhile, JTBC‘s new Saturday-Sunday drama ‘More Beautiful Than Heaven’ will premiere on April 19 (Friday) at 10:30 p.m.
