'Drinkers City Women 2' Han Seon-hwa worked even without the melodrama

Han Sun-hwa, who played the role of Han Ji-yeon in TVing's original 'Drinker City Women 2' (written by Wi So-young, directed by Park Soo-won, provided by TVing, produced by Bon Factory), is receiving favorable reviews for her deeper acting. 'Drinkers City Women 2' is arousing sympathy by telling episodes about friendship, love, and life with different themes every week. Han Seon-hwa perfectly portrays the role of Han Ji-yeon, who is an adult at the center but is still growing, making it impossible for viewers to take their eyes off the drama. I selected Han Seon-hwa's famous acting scenes that make you fall in love with her charm, sometimes in a tearful way, sometimes selfishly, and sometimes reassuringly.
◆ “From living in the mountains to ending 26 months of abstinence from alcohol.”
'Drinking Women in Cities 2' caught people's attention as it started with the story of Jiyeon, who disappeared a day before her chemotherapy treatment, and her friends who started a natural healing project to help her recover completely. This is because Han Seon-hwa perfectly portrays Ji-yeon, who does not lose her smile despite hardships, enjoys a natural life, and brings out one-dimensional laughter. In addition, in the scene where he drinks beer and sheds tears of relief after his condition improves, he shows tears filled with both joy and emotion, leaving a deep impression.
◆ “A story about a mother who is sad even when she smiles”
This is the moment when Jiyeon, who was always bright, reveals her lyrical side of missing her mother who left her first. At a drinking table with friends, Han Seon-hwa suddenly remembers his mother's drink and calmly conveys his will to forget it because he doesn't want people to remember the anniversary of his death as if it were homework, and then laughs, saying, "But I really forgot. I guess I'm really a stoner." filled with longing and sadness amidst laughter, creating a bright but dark scene. And the story of Ji-yeon's mother and daughter, who shared their lives with So-ju, was portrayed with delicate acting, conveying affection and increasing immersion in the play.
◆ “A toast to soothe the pain”
Han Ji-yeon's toast, which conveys consolation with alcohol, also attracted attention. He taught Kim Seon-jeong (played by Yoo In-young), who had turned into a completely different person due to drunkenness, how to drink “the kind of alcohol that’s just for me,” and melted her previously closed heart. Jiyeon's calm acting stood out, showing a different side of Jiyeon, who always enjoyed drinking with high tension. On the other hand, he becomes a drinking buddy with the baby's mother, who is misguided by her obsession with taking responsibility for the baby, and tells her about the useless history of Five Fortune House, teaches her yoga postures, and slyly acts out the sight of her farting, further enhancing Jiyeon's positive charm. added.
◆ “Even selfish feelings”
Han Seon-hwa's acting skills shone even when a friendship that seemed like it would last forever cracked. Ji-yeon, who was anxious that Ji-gu (played by Jeong Eun-ji) would meet Jong-gi (played by Yoon Si-yoon) and leave her side forever, avoided contact with Ji-gu and pretended to be interested in Jong-ri, causing Ji-ji to explode with anger. Although she is the one who caused the rift due to her misguided greed of not wanting to break up with her friend, the loneliness of Ji-yeon, who is completely alone without So-hee and Ji-gu, is portrayed realistically, making even her selfish feelings pitiful and understandable.
In this way, Han Seon-hwa retained the limitless liveliness of Ji-yeon in Season 1, but in Season 2, she showed new, dark acting that left a deep impression, creating numerous famous scenes. Han Ji-yeon's three-dimensional narrative is told through smooth acting, upgrading her character in life.
Meanwhile, episodes 11 and 12 of TVING's original 'Drinker City Women 2' will be released on TVING at 4 PM on Friday the 13th.
