tvN's Jeongnyeon: The Star is Born gives a glimpse of Yoon Jeong Nyeon's (Kim Tae Ri) journey to becoming a Gukgeuk actress.
Jeongnyeon: The Star is Born tells the story of Yoon Jeong Nyeon, a girl with a talent for singing who strives to become the best Gukgeuk (national theatre) actress. The K-drama is set against the backdrop of the immediate aftermath of the Korean War in the 1950s, an era characterized by poverty.
The teaser focuses on Yoon Jeong Nyeon's journey of transformation from a cheerful girl from Mokpo to a national theater actress. Jeong Nyeon, determined to join a national theater, demonstrates not only strong vitality and perseverance but also a friendly personality that lets her easily become friends with anyone.
The teaser vividly portrays Jeong Nyeon's progression from her hometown, Mokpo, to the stage of her dreams. Particularly striking is the contrast between her innocent charm in the first scene and her commanding presence as a protagonist of the play in the final scene.
Jeongnyeon: The Star is Born is scheduled to premiere on October 12. More news about the K-drama's global OTT platform is yet to come. Watch the teaser here.
