Roh Jeong-eui Shines with Positive Energy in New Drama 'I'll Give You the Universe'

Roh Jeong-eui, who debuted in 2011, is set to showcase the vibrant face of youth filled with positive energy. Previously making headlines for her 'skinny' appearance at 39kg, she faced disappointment with the MBC drama 'Bunny and the Brothers' last year, which recorded a 0% viewership rating. However, with her new project, she aims to shed past labels and redefine her career with a character that could become her signature role.

tvN's new Wednesday-Thursday drama 'I'll Give You the Universe' is set to premiere on the 4th, and behind-the-scenes stills of Roh Jeong-eui as the enthusiastic job seeker 'Woo Hyun-jin' have been released.

In the drama, Roh Jeong-eui plays 'Woo Hyun-jin,' a young woman who tirelessly pushes forward to relieve the burden on her sister, who has always been her support. After her sister's sudden accident, she takes on the joint responsibility of raising her 20-month-old nephew Woo-joo (played by Park Yoo-ho) with her brother-in-law Seon Tae-hyung (played by Bae In-hyuk). Through this character, she will connect with viewers by portraying growth and resilience in the face of life's challenges. The drama promises a range of emotional performances, from her bickering romance with Bae In-hyuk to her boundless affection for her nephew Woo-joo.

Roh Jeong-eui, who intrigues with her new acting transformation, embodies 'Woo Hyun-jin' completely. In the behind-the-scenes stills released by her agency, Namoo Actors, she exudes a chick-like charm in a yellow outfit and party hat, while her playful smile holding a cake radiates the bright energy of the set. Her fresh smile and innocent 'V' pose with clasped hands highlight her unique, clear, and confident aura, hinting at her dynamic performance in the drama.

Having proven her distinctive visuals and solid acting skills through various projects, Roh Jeong-eui has established herself as a representative actress of Generation Z. The youthful narrative she will unfold in 'I'll Give You the Universe' is highly anticipated for its unique appeal.

'I'll Give You the Universe' premieres tomorrow night (4th) at 10:40 PM.
