Go Min-si‘s ‘ momentum’ is unusual.

After showing off her presence by appearing only in hit dramas this year, such as ‘Sweet Home’ Season 3, ‘In the Forest Where There’s Nobody’, and the tvN entertainment program ‘Seo Jin‘s Family’, she is continuing her ‘trend’ by receiving consecutive offers to appear in various dramas and movies.

Including the one currently being filmed, there are more than 5 next works that are in positive discussions.

Recently, due to the sharp decrease in the number of productions in broadcasting and theaters, actors have been complaining about “the lack of works”, but Go Min-si seems to be the only one avoiding it. Some people even say, ‘Time in the entertainment industry flows by Go Min-si’.’

According to her agency Mystic Story on the 7th, she will be appearing in the movie ‘Master of the World’.

‘Master of the World’ contains the story that unfolds when something unexpected happens to Lee Joo-in (Go Min-si), an ordinary 18-year-old high school student.

Director Yoon Ga-eun, who directed ‘Us’ and ‘Our House’, is presenting her new work in 5 years. Go Min-si, who has been a long-time fan of Director Yoon, received the casting offer and adjusted her schedule to appear.

Prior to the movie, Go Min-si will be starring in a romantic comedy drama that highlights her ‘chubby’ bubbly charm, challenging the title of ‘Romance Queen’.

The drama ‘Your Taste’, which is currently being filmed and scheduled to be released next year, tells the story of Han Beom-woo, the successor to a food company, and chef Mo Yeon-ju as they run a small restaurant.

In the drama, he plays a star chef who strives to pursue the “best taste”, and he will be working with Kang Ha-neul.

He is also coordinating specific schedules for ‘I’ll Cross the World to You’ and ‘My Love, Which I Oppose’, which he confirmed to appear in early.

‘I‘ll Cross the World to You’ is the next project by director Lee Eung Bok, who directed ‘Goblin’’‘Descendants of the Sun’, and Go Min-si will be working with the director again after the ‘Jirisan’’Sweet Home’ series.

Director Lee Eung Bok praised him, saying, “With his natural (acting) talent and fierce effort, he always exceeds expectations”, and “With his charm that easily disarms even people he meets for the first time, and his ability to transform so freely that the word ‘unconventional’ comes to mind.”
