Jung So-min and Hae-in, high school couple chemistry

Jung Hae-in, born in 1988, and Jung So-min, born in 1989, become 'real-life friends' between friendship and love and hate in the drama.

On the 24th, tvN's new Saturday-Sunday drama 'Mom's Friend's Son' released still cuts containing the 'strong chemistry' of Choi Seung-hyo (played by Jung Hae-in) and Bae Seok-ryu (played by Jung So-min). The two people's unchanging appearance over time, from their teens to their 30s, makes us curious about the narrative of their relationship.

'Mom's Friend's Son' is a turbulent romance around the neighborhood between a woman trying to reboot her flawed life and her living dark side, 'Mom's Friend's Son'. The story of Choi Seung-hyo and Bae Seok-ryu, 'childhood men and women' who record each other's dark history, reunite at the crossroads of life brings pleasant laughter and warm excitement. Director Yoo Je-won and writer Shin Ha-eun, who were loved for 'Seaside Village Cha Cha Cha', are expected to join forces once again to continue the lineage of tvN's 'Healing Romance'.

A still cut showing Choi Seung-hyo and Bae Seok-ryu's timeline at a glance has been released, causing excitement. The fresh school uniform visuals from school days catch the eye. Choi Seung-hyo seems to be nagging Bae Seok-ryu, who is contemplating something at a local stationery store, as if he is displeased with it. With just one photo, the relationship between the two can be guessed and viewers smile.

The two people, who lived fierce lives for their own dreams and reality, meet again after many years in 'Hyereung-dong', where they cherish their childhood memories. Even though there is an unfamiliar excitement in the eyes of the two people sitting side by side and talking on the playground jingle gym filled with long memories, Choi Seung-hyo, who is holding Bae Seok-ryu's back, and their facial expressions as if they are enemies are like a real 'boyfriend and girl friend'. Shows a cheerful side.

Jung Hae-in played the role of Choi Seung-hyo, a strict child with perfect appearance, personality, and abilities. As the representative of an architectural firm and a young architect in the spotlight, his peaceful daily life is disrupted by a dangerous bug due to Bae Seok-ryu's comeback. Jeong So-min plays Bae Seok-ryu, a broken-hearted, strict daughter who dreams of rebooting her life. He was on a roll as a product manager at a large global company, but one day he suddenly decided to turn off his flawed life and start a new life.

Jung Hae-in said about his first romantic comedy partner, Jung So-min, "Actress Jung So-min is a person with bright energy. While acting together, I felt that she was a very considerate and warm-hearted actress." Jung So-min also said, "Actor Jung Hae-in is the brightest and smiles the most on set, so he is the number one contributor to creating a cheerful atmosphere. Thanks to him, I am always happy and happy while filming," raising even more expectations for the meeting between the two.

‘Mom’s Friend’s Son’ will be aired for the first time on Saturday the 17th of next month at 9:20 PM.
