Reporter Tae Yu-na and Ten Asia will properly cover all aspects of the drama based on what she heard and saw on the spot. We will be the eyes and ears of readers in an era where dramas are flooding in on numerous channels.

The makjang drama worked well. The husband who turned a blind eye to the ridiculous situation of being married to a conglomerate family caused anger. Han Ki-woong, who was brought in to replace Eru, who left the show due to drunk driving, played the role well and became the greatest villain of all time.

‘Secret Woman’, a drama that is scary to know


'Secret Woman', which first aired on the 14th, is a work that tells the story of a woman who lost her eyesight and fell into 'locked-in syndrome' (full body paralysis with consciousness), reveals the truth surrounding herself, and finds love and justice through revenge. . This is the second joint 'Secret' series between producer Shin Chang-seok and writer Lee Jeong-dae, following 'Secret Man', which recorded the highest viewership rating of 21.3%.

Producer Shin, who produced ‘Secret Woman’, had high pride. It is a challenge to the stronghold of ‘The Glory’, which ranked first globally. At the production presentation, PD Shin said that this is his last directing work for KBS and said, "We are confident that this is a work that challenges 'The Glory'. We filmed it like Netflix, but because the broadcast time was limited, we cut a lot. We cut too much. "The fried noodles have become mild ramen noodles. The story itself feels like a collection of two daily dramas. There are three secrets, and we will slowly reveal them one by one. You will never be able to predict it," he said.

The ‘secret woman’ who took off her veil was truly poisonous. From the opening, a woman is seen taking off the ventilator of Jeong Gyeorul (played by Shin Go-eun), who is suffering from locked-in syndrome. The next scene depicts Jeong Gyeoreum's difficult life with her in-laws. Even on her own birthday, she couldn't even make seaweed soup, so she had to boil haejangguk (haejangguk soup) for her husband, Nam Yu-jin (played by Han Ki-woong), and had to do all kinds of laundry, including blankets and curtains, due to her mother-in-law's mistreatment.

Joo Ae-ra (played by Lee Chae-young), who is having an affair with Nam Yu-jin, pretends to be a friend to Shin Go-eun, but commits the atrocity of trapping him in an elevator with a bad bronchial tube and lungs, causing him to faint, and secretly mixing birth control pills with the medicine he was taking, preventing her from becoming pregnant.

In this way, Lee Chae-young took on the role of a villain in three consecutive works, completing the role of a 'believable villain'. Lee Chae-young, who was the only one among the cast of 'Secret Man' to join 'Secret Woman', boasted a presence that surpassed Park Yeon-jin, the villain of 'The Glory'.

Here, Han Ki-woong, who joined the cast in place of Eru, shone with his obnoxious acting. Is it because his face is somewhat unfamiliar to the public? His acting, which did not stand by his wife and instead scolded her, seemed even more realistic. “Honestly, I would be lying if I said I didn’t feel pressured. I joined late, so I felt a lot of pressure. The director’s motto is ‘Let’s have fun filming.’ I think that’s true. The seniors also made it easy for me to act, so I’m having fun filming with them.” Reported by Han Ki-woong. The taste of the character of Jeokbanhajang was brought to life so well that the burden was insignificant.

Expectations are high on whether 'Secret Woman', who started the long journey armed with a strong taste, will be able to surpass the records of the previous series and become the daily drama version of 'The Glory'.
