Actress Son Ye-jin and Jo Yu-ri have been cast in the Netflix series 'Variety'.
Netflix has confirmed the production of 'Variety' and revealed the casting lineup of Son Ye-jin and Jo Yu-ri. 'Variety' tells the story of the entertainment representative Se-eun, who plans South Korea's top idol group, the obsessive fan Seung-hee who follows them, and the desires of the people surrounding them unfolding in a variety of ways.
This is the new work of director Kim Yong-hoon, who received critical and viewer acclaim through the Netflix series 'Mask Girl' and the film 'Beasts Clawing at Straws'. He will once again take on the direction and screenplay himself. Director Kim Yong-hoon is expected to reveal the various human figures and their desires within the glamorous K-POP entertainment industry, showcasing a bold story once again.
The role of Se-eun, the top entertainment representative in South Korea, will be played by actress Son Ye-jin, who enhances the immersion of the work with her irreplaceable character portrayal. Se-eun, who has excellent planning skills, is a character who does not hesitate to make cold decisions for her goals, throwing everything away to re-sign the idol group she has personally nurtured. Son Ye-jin, who captivates viewers with her character in every work, is expected to vividly portray Se-eun's proactive and glamorous side, as well as her extreme emotions in unexpected situations.
Jo Yu-ri, who made her mark as an actress through seasons 2 and 3 of 'Squid Game', will play the obsessive fan Seung-hee. Seung-hee is a character who follows her favorite member's every move by any means necessary. It adds to the curiosity about how Jo Yu-ri, who previously showcased fresh and impactful acting, will depict Seung-hee's strong obsession with a twisted love-hate relationship.
Veteran actors and new actors have been cast around Se-eun and Seung-hee, raising expectations.
