I am so excited for Jeongnyeon: The Star is Born on Disney+. After all, Kim Tae-ri is one of my favorite Korean actresses. And truly, she never fails to amaze me.
I first learned about how dedicated Tae-ri is to her roles when I attended a press con for Twenty-Five Twenty-One where she shared that she really took fencing lessons in order to prepare for her role (and she was so serious about them too!)
She also spoke French in that drama and I later learned that she has a beginner level of French proficiency because she started learning the language prior to becoming an actor.
Now, she is about to show us what her singing skills are made of in the upcoming Korean series Jeongnyeon: The Star is Born.
Jeongnyeon: The Star is Born is set in post-war Korea, an era filled of desire and aspiration. In the series, Kim Tae-ri takes on the role of Jeongnyeon, a trainee of the theater company Maeran Gukgeuk-dan whose dream is to become the best performer in Korean female classical opera. Yes, this isn't regular singing that Tae-ri will be taking on, but classical opera, no less!
Jeongnyeon: The Star is Born also stars Shin Ye-eun from the Glory as Young-seo, Jeongnyeon's biggest rival. I am so excited for this!
