MBC's New Drama 'In Your Glorious Season' Unites Lee Sung-kyung, Han Ji-hyun, and Oh Ye-ju as Three Resilient Sisters

Lee Sung-kyung, Han Ji-hyun, and Oh Ye-ju come together as three resilient sisters under one roof.

Premiering on Friday, the 20th at 9:50 PM, MBC's new Friday-Saturday drama 'In Your Glorious Season' tells the unpredictable romance of 'Chan', a man who lives every day like an exciting summer vacation, and 'Ran', a woman who has confined herself to winter, as they meet by fate and awaken frozen time.

In the drama, Lee Sung-kyung, Han Ji-hyun, and Oh Ye-ju portray the three sisters of the Nana family: Song Ha-ran, Song Ha-young, and Song Ha-dam. Despite sharing similar wounds, they have each endured life in their own ways. The conflicts and moments of solidarity they build while facing each other in one space add depth to the realistic sisterly relationships.

At the center of the three sisters is the eldest, Song Ha-ran. Played by Lee Sung-kyung, Song Ha-ran is a character who has confined herself to winter to rebuild her life after it collapsed in an instant. She lives without easily letting anyone close, maintaining the balance between her grandmother Kim Nana (played by Lee Mi-sook) and her siblings, yet remains deeply isolated. The weight of being the eldest daughter who endures for her family is expected to resonate with many viewers.

Lee Sung-kyung commented on the chemistry among the sisters, saying, "Han Ji-hyun is so lovable as Ha-young that it's hard to tell if she's acting or just being herself, and her energy is palpable on set. Oh Ye-ju also portrays the fresh and sharp Ha-dam in a way that makes it impossible not to love her, allowing the three sisters to blend well and highlight their distinct charms."

Han Ji-hyun plays the second sister, Song Ha-young, who is responsible for the lively atmosphere at home with her cheerful and straightforward personality. Although she appears the brightest on the outside, she reveals her honest emotions in front of her family, adding layers to the sisters' relationship.

Han Ji-hyun shared, "The set feels like a real family. The chemistry among the three sisters is great and comfortable. Lee Sung-kyung sunbae (senior) lightens the mood with her humor, and Oh Ye-ju spreads her bright energy everywhere. It's a set where we laugh a lot but naturally focus during emotional scenes, which deepens my affection for this project."

The youngest sister, Song Ha-dam, is portrayed by Oh Ye-ju. She appears the most solid, excelling academically and handling everything on her own like a 'worry-free youngest', but this is also her survival strategy to avoid being seen as a 'pitiful child'. However, Ha-dam's first rebellion opens a new chapter in the long-standing relationship of the three sisters, sparking curiosity about the changes they will face.

Oh Ye-ju expressed, "Filming at Nana House feels like coming home. Being with Ha-ran and Ha-young unnie (older sister) makes me feel completely armored," adding, "They take care of me like a real youngest sibling and shower me with love. Thanks to them, filming at Nana House is happy and warm."

In 'In Your Glorious Season', the three sisters sometimes clash like a battlefield, but they become a strong support for each other when it matters most. The realistic sisterly narrative completed by the three actresses is expected to add deep empathy and touching emotion to the drama.

'In Your Glorious Season' premieres on Friday, the 20th at 9:50 PM.
