Actress Park Min-young predicted a unique transformation that has never been seen before.
tvN's new Monday-Tuesday drama 'Marry My Husband', which will be aired for the first time on January 1, 2024, has released the first still containing the striking visuals of Park Min-young, who plays the role of Kang Ji-won.
'Marry My Husband' is based on the popular web novel of the same name, and is about a woman who was murdered after witnessing her husband's affair with her best friend, returns to the past 10 years, experiences the second time in her life, and seeks to return the gutter-like fate to them. It is a full-fledged destiny pioneering drama.
In the play, Kang Ji-won is an ordinary Korean woman who spends her days burdened by an incompetent husband, a neglectful in-law, and a hard work life. I lived my whole life just putting up with it at home and at work because I thought about others more than myself, but I had no idea that I had become a 'gugu', surrounded only by people who thought it was their right to show kindness. However, what awaits Kang Ji-won at the end is the affair of her husband, Park Min-hwan (Lee Yi-kyung), her only family, and Jeong Soo-min (Song Ha-yoon), her only friend, and cancer that struck her at a young age.
In the published photo, Kang Ji-won's appearance is captured and catches the eye. The patient gown, hat, emaciated face, and pale complexion make the situation of Kang Ji-won, who is collapsing due to the difficult struggle with illness and an exhausting life, just before returning home feel realistic, causing viewers to become overly immersed.
In particular, Park Min-young put a lot of effort into losing weight by 37 kg to be able to digest it more flawlessly. The production team of 'Marry My Husband' said, "Park Min-young spared no effort in many ways to realistically express the setting of a cancer patient. Everyone on set was surprised," adding, "The ever-changing temperature difference between Kang Ji-won before and after regression was amazing." “We plan to portray it brilliantly, so please show a lot of interest.”
‘Marry My Husband’ will premiere on January 1, 2024.
