The new weekend drama 'Fighting Against One's Worthlessness' (abbreviated as 'FAOW') follows the journey of a person driven mad by jealousy and envy among successful friends, seeking peace. Bae Jong-ok, alongside actress Han Sun-hwa, will portray the precarious relationship between a mother and daughter hidden behind the glamorous entertainment industry.
Who is Oh Jung-hee, played by Bae Jong-ok?
Bae Jong-ok plays Oh Jung-hee, a national actress who maintains her top position with overwhelming charisma. Oh Jung-hee is a perfectionist who lives as if the camera is always rolling, even in everyday moments. She has a firm standard that everything must be flawless, and she tries to keep even the smallest details of her daughter's life under her control.
What is Han Sun-hwa's role and the core of the mother-daughter conflict?
Han Sun-hwa plays Jang Mi-ran, Oh Jung-hee's daughter and an actress. Jang Mi-ran is the lead in director Park Kyung-se's (played by Oh Jung-se) fifth film 'The Armless Second Sister'. Although she is more famous as 'Oh Jung-hee's daughter', she longs to break free from her mother's shadow and title. She is striving to find her own identity.
The released images capture the dual life of the mother-daughter duo. At an awards ceremony, Oh Jung-hee holds a trophy in triumph, while her daughter Jang Mi-ran congratulates her with a bright smile from below the stage. They appear to be the epitome of a perfect and enviable mother-daughter relationship.
What is the twist in their stepmother-stepdaughter relationship?
In public, they portray an unbreakable bond and perfect harmony, but the atmosphere in their waiting room is a stark contrast. Once the bright lights are off and they are alone, a cold silence fills the space. The tension arises from Oh Jung-hee's meticulous control and Jang Mi-ran's struggle to create her own world within it.
The production team stated, "Oh Jung-hee and Jang Mi-ran are actors who precariously navigate between the pressure to present the perfect narrative to the public and their suppressed selves. In reality, they are a stepmother-stepdaughter pair with no blood relation, and we hope viewers will tune in to discover their story. Additionally, look forward to the acting synergy between Bae Jong-ok and Han Sun-hwa, who will portray the dramatic contrast on and off camera."
'FAOW' premieres on the 18th of next month at 10:40 PM.
