Nevertheless may be over, but we’re still positively high from the SolJiwan fever the show gave us. Seriously, we’ve been consuming any little crumb Yoon Seo Ah and Lee Ho Jung have put out these past few days. Luckily, though, fans of the latter won’t have to worry about facing too long a drought, because Ho Jung is already booked for her next show!
As per reports from Korean media, the rising actress has confirmed her involvement in a romantic fantasy drama titled The Jinx’s Lover. Yet another webtoon-based series, it will center on Gong Soo-kwang, a poor, unlucky man who sells fish at the market for a living. He finds his life completely upended when he meets Lee Seul-bi, a goddess of fortune who manages to break out from her prison, after being trapped there by a chaebol family.
Ho Jung will play Jo Jang-kyung on the show, daughter of the head of Geumhwa General Hospital. While her character isn’t in the original web drama, viewers can expect her story to entangle with that of the main leads, to be played by Na In Woo (River Where the Moon Rises), SNSD’s Seo Hyun (Private Lives, Hello Dracula), and fellow supporting actor Ki Do Hoon (Once Again, Love Alarm 2).
Since it seems like Ho Jung's portraying a wealthy character this time around, we're keeping our fingers crossed that we'll get to see her don stylish designer 'fits, the way she used to back in her modeling days. While we loved the fact that she dressed herself in Nevertheless, we're not opposed to her switching things up for a change.
The Jinx’s Lover will be helmed by River Where the Moon Rises director Yoon Sang Ho. Penning the series is Jang Yoon Mi, who’s best known for her work on movies like Cheer Up Mr Lee., Madonna, and Scarlet Innocence.
