She will appear before viewers in the lead role of Barney in the new MBC drama ‘Barney and Her Brothers’, which will air for the first time on the 11th. The drama was originally scheduled to air on the 4th, but was delayed by a week due to special programming related to the impeachment of President Yoon Seok-yeol.
The drama tells the story of Barney, who gets entangled with attractive men who suddenly approach her after her first love, which remains a dark history. It is based on a popular webtoon of the same name, which has garnered 170 million cumulative views.
Having shown an extraordinary presence in the previous Channel A drama ‘The Witch’, he is continuing his popularity by presenting his next work right away.
At the drama production conference held at Yongsan CGV in Seoul on the afternoon of the 3rd ahead of the first broadcast, Noh Jung-eui said, “The character Bunny is a second-year student in the Department of Sculpture who is good at everything except dating”, and “I‘m happy to be able to tell a story of innocent youth through this drama.”.
Noh Jung-eui is wooed by four ‘good-looking’ men in the drama. He said with a smile, “It was a good working environment so I had a lot of fun and was happy filming”.”.
Among the four men, the character Hwang Chi-yeol, who stands out, is played by Lee Chae-min.
This is Noh Jung-eui and Lee Chae-min’s second time working together since ‘Hairaki’. What is unique is that he matured from a high school student to a college student.
Noh Jeong-ui said, “I think we filmed more comfortably and enjoyably,” and “I think we‘ll see different sides of him because he has a lot of the innocence of someone in their early 20s.”
