Actress Shin Ye-eun is set to star in Disney+'s first original historical series, 'Turbulence,' which premieres today (26th). Shin Ye-eun takes on the role of Choi Eun, the youngest daughter of the 'Choi Merchant Group,' who aspires to lead the largest merchant group in Joseon. The drama is an action-packed tale of destiny set in Gyeonggang, where all the money and resources of Joseon converge, and follows the stories of those who dream of a better world.
Through her portrayal of Choi Eun, Shin Ye-eun will depict a progressive and bold female character who defies traditional customs to pursue her dreams. Her performance is expected to drive the narrative forward.
Shin Ye-eun has showcased her versatility across various genres, from modern dramas like 'He Is Psychometric,' 'Welcome,' 'More Than Friends,' and 'A Hundred Memories,' to thrillers and historical dramas such as 'Revenge of Others' and 'The Secret Romantic Guesthouse.' Her powerful presence in 'The Glory' and 'Jung Nyeon' has earned her acclaim from both audiences and critics, proving her boundless potential.
Shin Ye-eun's ability to fully embody her characters has consistently heightened the immersion of her projects, and her performance in 'Turbulence' is expected to shine as well. Her solid acting skills, which seamlessly transition between modern and historical settings, are anticipated to enrich the character of Choi Eun.
'Turbulence' is directed by Choo Chang-min, known for the film 'Masquerade,' which attracted 10 million viewers and was praised for both its commercial success and artistic merit. The collaboration between Shin Ye-eun and the acclaimed director is a key point of interest.
Additionally, 'Turbulence' has been officially invited to the 'On Screen' section of the 30th Busan International Film Festival, garnering significant attention even before its release. Shin Ye-eun attended various events in Busan to introduce 'Turbulence' to audiences and fans.
The series will release episodes 1 to 3 today, with two new episodes available weekly, culminating in a total of nine episodes.
