‘Cinderella Game’ actress Na Young-hee is ready to meet the viewers.

The new KBS2 daily drama ‘Cinderella Game’ (written by Oh Sang-hee / directed by Lee Hyun-kyung), scheduled to premiere on Monday, December 2, is a story about a woman who was used as a fake daughter by her enemy and became the incarnation of revenge, growing and healing as she realizes the true meaning of revenge.

Na Young-hee plays Shin Yeo-jin, the president of Hyesung Group. Shin Yeo-jin is respected by the world for her warm-hearted and people-centered management philosophy, but she is actually a person with a thorough business mind. Having lost her daughter 20 years ago, she struggles without regard to the means and methods to find her. In the process, she will show the character‘s transformation process with a twisted maternal nature and entanglement with many surrounding characters.

Amidst rising anticipation for the drama ahead of its broadcast, Na Young-hee said today (18th) about the reason she chose ‘Cinderella Game’, saying, “I decided to do the project because it seemed like a drama that could be a cure for tired viewers,” and “It was appealing because it was a work that added the fun of a family drama to a revenge drama.”

Na Young-hee also introduced the charming points of the character Shin Yeo-jin. “The charming point is that he is a character who seems cold-blooded as the respected owner of Hyesung Group, but he actually suffered great pain when his daughter went missing 20 years ago.”Because he is a character who grieves over the loss of a child, I focused on Yeo-jin’s search for her lost daughter rather than the image of the chairman.” Na Young-hee also revealed her own interpretation of the character. “Even at the script reading site where we were working together for the first time, the atmosphere was really good. The filming set was also always cheerful with all the actors and staff members,” she said, boasting a bright filming set atmosphere.

Na Young-hee, who defined ‘Cinderella Game’ as a healing agent, said, “Please watch with interest how the main characters change through revenge and love,” and added, “If we focus on how love and forgiveness can heal the pain from revenge, I think the drama’s message will be better conveyed to potential viewers,” not leaving out any key points to watch.

Lastly, Na Young-hee said, “I hope ‘Cinderella Game’ will be a drama that conveys emotion and joy.” Please show lots of interest and love,” he said, asking for viewers to watch the original broadcast.

‘Cinderella Game’ will premiere on Monday, December 2nd at 7:50 PM as a follow-up to ‘Scandal’.
