Kim Si-eun said she was grateful to appear on ‘It’s Gold, It’s Jade’.

On the 23rd, an online production presentation for KBS1's new daily drama 'Golden, Okja' was held. Director Kim Jung-min and actors Shin Ye-eun, Ryeowoon, Kang Hoon, Jeong Geon-ju, Oh Man-seok, and Han Chae-ah attended.

Seo Jun-young played the role of Geumgang-san, a single dad with a strong lifestyle. Dayoung Yoon appears as Ok Mi-rae, an adopted child who was adopted into the Hwangdong Food family. Kim Si-hoo played Dong Joo-hyuk, who is polite but hides a cool coldness behind him.

In addition, Choi Jong-hwan plays the role of Dong Gyu-cheol, Dong Joo-hyuk's father and the ambitious owner of Hwangdong Food. Song Chae-hwan will play the role of Ma Hong-do, Geumgang-san's mother-in-law and a powerful figure at Hong-done's side dish shop, and Lee Eung-kyung will show off her wealth of experience as Hwang Chan-ran, Ok Mi-rae's adoptive mother and the unmarried only daughter of the chairman of Hwangdong Food. Kim Young-ho gives a lively and passionate performance as Kim Doo-ho, a baker who lives in the doorway of Mahong-dong, and Choi Jae-won shows off his powerful acting skills as Geum Seon-dal, the free-spirited father of Geumgangsan.

In addition, Lee Yoon-seong plays Dong Gyu-seon, the younger brother of Dong Gyu-cheol, a blameless but cute old miss, and Choi Phillip plays Eun Sang-soo, the eldest son-in-law who monopolizes the love of his mother-in-law, Ma Hong-do. Kang Da-hyun is expected to add vitality to the drama as Geum Jan-di, the daughter of Geumgang-san and the beginning of middle school illness, which is said to be scarier than compatible moms.

Kim Si-eun is expected to add vitality to the play as Geum Jan-di, the daughter of Mt. Geumgang and the onset of middle school illness, which is said to be scarier than a compatible mama. Kim Si-eun, who auditioned, said, "I can only play the role of a middle school student with a disease right now, so I'm grateful that I got to do it." In fact, Kim Si-eun, a third-year middle school student this year, said, “I have felt and feel the emotions of adolescence that come and go even over trivial things. I think I was able to understand and sympathize with Jandi’s emotions. “In that case, it helped me portray a 15-year-old girl with a middle school illness.” Kim Si-eun said, “My dad (Seo Jun-young) gave me a lot of gifts and we became close while filming, so now I’m like my real dad,” and added, “All my reactions to my dad were sincere.”

'It's Gold, It's Ok' is a delightful and heartwarming story of a family growing up while raising a child, Geumgang-san, a single dad, and Ok Mi-rae, an adopted child. Starting from the 27th, it will be broadcast every Monday to Friday at 8:30 PM.
