In the latest stills, the actress shows a quiet sophistication.

Fans are still amazed by how much Cha Joo Young has changed for her new drama, The Real Has Come, which is coming out soon.

The Real Has Come! stills were released on March 8 by KBS. The upcoming weekend drama should be a lot calmer than Cha Joo Young's hit show The Glory, which is airing right now.

In the stills, Cha Joo Young's character from The Glory can't be seen at all. For her next drama, the actress ditches the conceit she showed in her last one and goes for a more mature and low-key look.

The story of the romance between a pregnant woman and a man who is not married is told by actors Baek Jin Hee and Ahn Jae Hyun.

Cha Joo Young will play the executive secretary of a big company in the drama. People say that Cha Joo Young's character is someone who takes care of herself.

Cha Joo Young recently talked about why she chose the weekend drama, which is well-known for having more than 40 episodes. In an interview, the actress talked about the show before the first episode aired.

"I wanted to act in something longer, so I chose a drama. I had fun reading the script, and I liked that I couldn't guess what the characters would do or how they would get along." — Choi Joo Young

As for how she changed her style for her next role, the actress said that, unlike her gaudy character on The Glory, she went for a simple elegance.

"I tried to show a woman who is sophisticated without being showy. The character thinks it's a skill to take advantage of other people, so I hope that when she sneaks out of trouble, people will see her as a quiet, sophisticated woman." — Choi Joo Young

Hyun Bin is finally addressing the long-standing "ddongcha" (poop car) theory surrounding his character from My Name is Kim Sam-soon—and he's not holding back!

In an interview on the 19th with Star News, the beloved actor confessed, "I was wrong," responding to the reevaluation of his iconic role as Hyun Jin-heon from the 2005 hit drama. The "ddongcha" theory has been a subject of online debate for years, with many viewers critiquing Hyun Jin-heon’s character as overly arrogant and entitled.

Hyun Bin, who first rose to fame in My Name is Kim Sam-soon, took the time to reflect on the character that made him a household name. He shared, “I was just following the script; there were no personal opinions added to the character of Hyun Jin-heon. At that time, I knew Hyun Jin-heon was portrayed as a ‘bad boy,’ and the way it was expressed was different from today’s standards.”

With My Name is Kim Sam-soon now being re-released as part of Wavve's "New Classic" project, fans are revisiting the 2005 drama, and the character of Hyun Jin-heon is under fresh scrutiny. Director Kim Yun-cheol even admitted that the "prince on a white horse" and "bad boy" tropes that once worked in 2005 don’t quite match today's sensibilities, leading to edits in the 2024 version.

Hyun Bin humbly acknowledged his gratitude for his successful career and hit works, saying, "It’s wonderful and I am grateful to have so many hit works. I’ve been fortunate to work with amazing writers, directors, and actors. Thanks to them, I’ve received a lot of attention and love." He also shared a sense of humility, noting, “But I never know when that luck will come again."

Despite the dramatic shift in perspective on his character, Hyun Bin’s charm and dedication remain strong. Fans are eager to see him in his upcoming film Harbin (directed by Woo Min-ho), set to be released on the 24th.
