Feb 05, 2024

MBC’s upcoming drama “Wonderful World” has dropped its first stills of Kim Nam Joo!

“Wonderful World” is an emotional thriller about Eun Soo Hyun (Kim Nam Joo), a woman who seeks revenge after the tragic loss of her son. When the culprit manages to evade punishment through the legal system, she decides to pursue justice on her own. Cha Eun Woo co-stars as Kwon Sun Yool, who leads a rough life after dropping out of medical school until he unexpectedly becomes entangled with Eun Soo Hyun.

In the newly released stills, Kim Nam Joo transforms into Eun Soo Hyun wearing a shabby prison uniform in a bleak and barren prison. Eun Soo Hyun is sitting on a bench in the prison playground and is blankly staring into space. Her empty facial expression conveys a sense of loss after losing her happy life and her beloved family as well as the guilt of taking another person’s life.

In another still image below, Eun Soo Hyun is looking beyond the iron bars with a sad facial expression as if she is about to burst into tears at any moment, longing for her lost son. Viewers are curious to find out about the incident of “that day” that drove Eun Soo Hyun into a terrible tragedy.

The production team remarked, “The unconventional character of Eun Soo Hyun, who personally punishes a murderer for her son, meets with Kim Nam Joo’s acting and creates explosive synergy. As she returns to the small screen [for the first time] in six years, please look forward to the performance of Kim Nam Joo, who will not spare efforts to showcase her acting.”
