Seo Ji Hye, Hong Soo Hyun, And Lee Sang Woo Preview Their Intriguing Bond And Burning Ambition In Posters For New Drama

TV Chosun has released two new posters for their upcoming weekend drama!

Starring Seo Ji Hye, Lee Sung Jae, Hong Soo Hyun, and Lee Sang Woo, TV Chosun’s new miniseries “Red Balloon” (literal translation) is a thrilling yet passionate story about the sense of deprivation we all feel when comparing ourselves to others, the thirst of jealous ambition, and our struggles to quench that thirst.

Seo Ji Hye stars as Jo Eun Kang, who dreams of becoming a teacher but instead works as a tutor after consistently failing her employment exams. Hong Soo Hyun will take on the role of Han Ba Da, a jewelry designer who’s been friends with Jo Eun Kang since high school. Lee Sang Woo plays Han Ba Da’s husband Go Cha Won, who is a dermatologist.

The first photo features Seo Ji Hye and Hong Soo Hyun both wearing luxurious white gowns. While seated, Jo Eun Kang holds on to her friend Han Ba Da, who has her back turned, as if asking her to stay. Contrary to Han Ba Da’s soft facial expression, Jo Eun Kang looks cold. The dramatic caption teases Jo Eun Kang’s hidden ambition, reading, “I thought of you as a friend, that’s why…I had no intention of taking it away.”

Lee Sang Woo joins the duo in the second poster which previews an intriguing relationship between the three characters. Jo Eun Kang looks straight ahead with her fiery, clear, and ambitious eyes. Han Ba Da gives a soft smile and gives her best friend a tight hug, while Go Cha Won stands behind both ladies and keeps a hand on his wife’s shoulder.

The production team commented, “In the two-person poster, we tried to project the powerful image of Jo Eun Kang, who slowly recognizes her suppressed ambition, and Han Ba Da, who ends up feeling a sense of loss as a result. Additionally, in Jo Eun Kang, Han Ba Da, and Go Cha Won’s three-person poster, we tried to capture the explosive narrative that stems from a sense of relative deprivation in ‘Red Balloon.'”

TV Chosun’s “Red Balloon” will premiere on December 17 at 9:10 p.m. KST.
