The salty daily lives of Seo Hyun-chul and Song Jin-woo, the husbands of Oh Na-ra and So Yoo-jin, are creating a sense of empathy.

In KBS 2TV‘s Wednesday-Thursday sitcom ‘Villain’s Country’ (directed by Kim Young-jo and Choi Jung-eun / written by Chae Woo and Park Kwang-yeon), Seo Hyun-chul (played by Seo Hyun-chul) and Song Jin-woo (played by Song Jin-woo) added to the sadness between the villain sisters Oh Na-ra (played by Oh Na-ra) and Oh Yu-jin (played by So Yu-jin).

Seo Hyun-chul and Song Jin-woo appeared as Oh Na-ra and Oh Yu-jin‘s husbands, respectively, and captured the attention of viewers from the first episode with their ‘funny and sad’ (funny yet sad) sides. While anticipation is rising for what kind of story the two will draw with Oh Na-ra and So Yoo-jin in the future, let’s take a look back at the activities of Seo Hyun-chul and Song Jin-woo that were broadcast up to the 4th episode.

● Seo Hyun-chul, professional anxiety sufferer!

In episode 1, Hyun-chul shocked everyone by being diagnosed with panic disorder. From his first appearance, his extraordinary presence heightened the immersion of the drama. Later, when Hyun-chul was in danger of being late for work, he left the house in a hurry. However, he encountered his drunk daughter Seo In-a (played by Han Sung-min) in the elevator, and he also encountered a situation where Nara didn‘t fill up her car with gas, which made him feel even more pitiful. Seo Hyun-chul, who got into the character, vividly expressed the anxious day of the K-father, drawing sympathy from viewers.

Meanwhile, Hyun-chul made people laugh by being helpless because of Nara. When Nara ran for the resident representative election, he devoted himself to the campaign, even taking annual leave from his company. He even danced to cheer for Nara, but soon felt it was unfair and posted her secret anonymously on a cafe. When Nara was eventually disqualified, Hyun-chul was exposed by his election rival, Eugene, and the fact that he had been hit with a cigarette shuttle by middle school students in the past was revealed. His appearance of avoiding the residents due to his shame was pitiful. Attention is focused on what Nara’s father-in-law, Hyun-chul, will do in the future.

● Song Jin-woo with a lot of trouble and high tension

Jin-woo, who lost his house through coin investment, was the head of the household, but he was the lowest in the family, creating a sense of sadness. He is a troublemaker, and he hit Hyun-chul with a car and hurt his head. He also drove to help his father-in-law, Oh Young-gyu (played by Park Young-gyu), and his unstable appearance made viewers‘ palms sweat.

Jin-woo headed to the park with Young-gyu to exhibit a sculpture. In the process, he made the mistake of destroying the statue, and ended up having to paint himself white instead of the statue. While holding in the urge to urinate and doing his best, he ended up making a rude mistake when Yeong-gyu’s acquaintance stabbed him in the stomach with a ballpoint pen. In particular, the scene where Jin-woo just ran away made the viewers burst into laughter. Expectations are high for what kind of comedic acting Song Jin-woo will bring to the small screen in the future.

In this way, Seo Hyun-chul and Song Jin-woo, who are brothers-in-law, are doubling the fun in ‘Villain‘s Country’ by demonstrating a funny and sad synergy. As the chemistry between the two makes the play more flexible, curiosity is rising as to whether Hyun-chul and Jin-woo will be able to fight back against the villain sisters Nara and Eugene.

Episodes 5 and 6 of KBS 2TV’s Wednesday-Thursday sitcom ‘Villain‘s Country’ will air on Wednesday, the 26th at 9:50 p.m.
