Jeon Yeo-bin, Jinyoung, Seo Hyun-woo, Jang Yoon-joo, and Joo Hyun-young will star in the Genie TV·ENA drama ‘Honest Woman Busemi’.

The drama, scheduled to air in the second half of the year, is a crime romance about a poor bodyguard who dreams of ‘turning her life around and enters into a contract marriage with a terminally ill conglomerate chairman, and must change her identity and survive for three months while avoiding those who are after his huge inheritance.

Director Park Yoo-young, who directed the drama ‘Kidnapping Day’, and writer Hyun Gyu-ri, who wrote the screenplay for the movie ‘Owl’, are in charge of directing and writing the script, respectively.

In the drama, Jeon Yeo-bin plays the role of Kim Young-ran, the bodyguard for the owner of Gaseong Group. Kim Young-ran is a character who has lived a miserable and miserable life because of money, but she is given the life of a fictional character named Bu Se-mi, who boasts luxurious specifications that are the complete opposite of her own.

She is called the good woman Bu Se-mi and faces a completely different life. Jeon Yeo-bin‘s unique challenge to transform into Kim Young-ran is highly anticipated.

Jin-young, who will act with Jeon Yeo-bin, plays the role of Jeon Dong-min, a single father who raises his son while farming strawberries in the countryside.

He is the only person in the village who is wary of Bu Se-mi (Jeon Yeo-bin), the perfect teacher who has become his son’s new kindergarten teacher. He will breathe sincerity into the character of Jeon Dong-min, a prickly but warm-hearted man who turns from a villain to a hero, to the fake kindergarten teacher Bu Se-mi who has a fake identity.

Seo Hyun-woo plays the role of Lee Don, the personal lawyer for the head of the family who will do anything for money. He is a case of a man who became a dragon from the stream with his brilliant mind, but he realizes the reality tainted by school ties and blood ties and tries to turn his life around with the determination to become an eel if not a dragon. I wonder about the character of Lee Don, a man who values money the most, who will be born with Seo Hyun-woo‘s delicate acting.

Jang Yoon-joo will transform her acting by taking on the role of Ga Seon-yeong, the stepdaughter of the owner of Gaseong Group. She is determined to properly show the duality of Ga Seon-yeong, who is skilled at image making to the point of stopping at nothing to get what she wants.

Joo Hyun-young will take on the role of Baek Hye-ji, who works as a helper at the mansion of the owner of Gaseong Group’s family. Baek Hye-ji, who lives as a roommate with Kim Young-ran (Jeon Yeo-bin) in the annex of the mansion, has a natural and innocent side, but also an attitude that makes it difficult to read her insides.

The production team said, “We feel very secure that actors with great talent, skills, and acting ability are joining us,” and added, “In a materialistic society, we will present an unpredictable thriller surrounding money and desire, as well as a story full of human touch, excitement, and warmth that money cannot buy, so please show lots of interest and anticipation.”
