Another side of Lim Ji-yeon, shedding her brutality and donning elegance, is revealed.

JTBC‘s new Saturday-Sunday drama ‘Madam Ok’s Story’ (written by Park Ji-sook, directed by Jin Hyeok) is a work that depicts the fierce survival fraud drama of Ok Tae-young (played by Lim Ji-yeon), a woman whose name, status, and even her husband were all fake, and Cheon Seung-hwi (played by Choo Young-woo), an entertainer who risked his life to protect her.

The first still cut containing the miserable reality of slave Gu Deok-yi (played by Lim Ji-yeon) foreshadowed Lim Ji-yeon‘s (as Gu Deok-yi, Ok Tae-young) drastic transformation, and this time, the fake Ok Tae-young’s lovely appearance is revealed, creating a contrast between the two extremes and leaving a strong impact.

In the revealed photo, the fake Ok Tae-young, who has been reborn as a young lady while hiding her identity, is looking somewhere with her skirt over her head. The somewhat mysterious look in her eyes hints at her difficult story of having to live while hiding her identity, which arouses even more curiosity. In addition, Ok Tae-young‘s lively complexion and noble appearance exude an elegance that makes it impossible to even imagine the shabby and bloody appearance of Gu-deok in the past.


The two opposing lives that one character can portray are creating excitement. Attention is being paid to how the fake Ok Tae-young, who started the play of her life to survive, will navigate her life as a lady.

Above all, the bold performance of actress Lim Ji-yeon, who will portray the 180-degree different sides of the slave Gu-deok and the fake Ok Tae-young with her versatile expressiveness, is also highly anticipated.

‘Lady Ok’s Story’ will first air on November 30th at 10:30 PM.
