Jun Ji Hyun and Joo Ji Hoon will become partners in the upcoming tvN drama “Jirisan”!
Written by Kim Eun Hee (“Signal,” “Kingdom”), “Jirisan” is a mystery drama starring Jun Ji Hyun as Seo Yi Kang, a top ranger at Mount Jiri National Park, and Joo Ji Hoon as Kang Hyun Jo, her rookie partner who is hiding an unspeakable secret. The drama follows the rangers at the national park as they uncover the truth behind a mysterious accident that occurred on the mountain.
On October 20, the drama revealed new stills of Seo Yi Kang and Kang Hyun Jo’s first meeting. There is a sharp contrast between Seo Yi Kang, a top ranger who radiates professionalism, and Kang Hyun Jo, a newcomer who doesn’t have much experience yet.
After years of experience, Seo Yi Kang knows how challenging Mount Jiri is, and she is carrying tons of equipment that can be used in various emergency situations. Despite the heavy gear, she isn’t affected at all, and she stands tall and strong as if she has become one with the equipment.
On the other hand, Kang Hyun Jo is dressed well, just like any other person on their first day of work, and he is clearly nervous and awkward in front of his new partner. It probably isn’t easy for a rookie like him to team up with Seo Yi Kang, especially when he’s still not familiar with the mountain’s geography.
Seo Yi Kang and Kang Hyun Jo aren’t quite used to being partners yet, and it’s hard to ignore the cold air surrounding them. However, over time, they will become like a “needle and thread,” and it will be intriguing to see the progress of their partnership. In addition, viewers are curious to find out what kind of events the two characters will face in the beautiful but dangerous Mount Jiri.
“Jirisan” premieres on October 23.
