"More Beautiful than Heaven" Kim Hye-ja forms a new bond in heaven.
On the 20th, ahead of the second episode airing, the production team of JTBC's weekend drama "More Beautiful than Heaven" (written by Lee Nam-kyu and Kim Soo-jin, directed by Kim Seok-yoon) released stills depicting the 'bittersweet reunion' of Lee Hae-sook (played by Kim Hye-ja) and Ko Nak-jun (played by Son Seok-koo). The stills hint at the appearance of the center director (played by Cheon Ho-jin) and the mysterious woman Somi (played by Han Ji-min), raising curiosity.
"More Beautiful than Heaven" premiered to positive reviews from viewers. The dynamic story of Lee Hae-sook's entrance into heaven, which oscillates between reality and imagination, captivated audiences with its delightful and warm narrative, culminating in a reunion ending with her husband Ko Nak-jun, who has been rejuvenated to his 30s. Particularly, the unexpected charm and acting transformation of the 'national actress' Kim Hye-ja were enough to reaffirm her prowess.
In the released photos, Lee Hae-sook's full-fledged life in heaven adds to the anticipation of her second marriage with Ko Nak-jun. On the second day of her entrance into heaven, she visits the Heaven Support Center following her husband Ko Nak-jun. The meeting between the couple and the center director captured in the photos draws attention. The center director, with open arms and a gentle smile, welcomes Lee Hae-sook, while her reaction, as if she is meeting a real deity, brings laughter.
In another photo released, attention is also focused on the appearance of Somi. The mysterious woman, who has arrived at the Heaven House, runs to Ko Nak-jun, ignoring Lee Hae-sook's gaze, and embraces him. Lee Hae-sook looks on in disbelief, Ko Nak-jun is at a loss for words, and Somi seems to be in a different world, creating a tense three-way confrontation that threatens to shatter the happiness and peace of heaven. It raises curiosity about whether Ko Nak-jun has developed a new secret unknown to Lee Hae-sook, and the still-hidden identity and relationship of Somi.
The production team of "More Beautiful than Heaven" stated, "Starting from today's (20th) episode 2, Lee Hae-sook's full-fledged life in heaven begins. Please watch to see whether Lee Hae-sook, who has been let down by the excitement and expectations of their reunion, will continue her second marriage with Ko Nak-jun, and how the new character 'Somi' will become a variable for this couple." They added, "Please continue to look forward to the unique depiction of heaven filled with intriguing imaginations in 'More Beautiful than Heaven'."
Meanwhile, JTBC's weekend drama "More Beautiful than Heaven" will air on the 20th at 10:30 PM.
