Jang Nara’s marriage starts to crack in My Happy End

by lovepark

The newest teaser for TV Chosun’s psychological thriller My Happy End depicts its leads Jang Nara (Family: The Unbreakable Bond) and Sohn Ho-joon (The First Responders 2) in a happy marriage until things take a dark turn. As secrets come to light, our heroine’s world starts to fall apart, and at the crux of all this may be her husband.

Opening with a wedding, the teaser shows Seo Jae-won (Jang Nara) and Heo Soon-young (Sohn Ho-joon) deeply in love and full of joy. Soon-young promises to treat her even better, and Jae-won thinks to herself that every day was perfectly happy just like the last.

Soon-young lifts Jae-won in a hug, and their life together seems perfect. A sequence of happy moments plays on screen as the couple share cuddles, smiles, and a birthday party with their daughter — but as Jae-won beams into the camera, it suddenly cuts to her sullen expression.

The tone of the teaser shifts as lights flash, glass breaks, and items are tossed. Jae-won says that the truth within the happiness started to appear, and her once-ideal marriage comes crashing down at her feet. As someone follows her across a bridge, Jae-won runs in fear while soaking wet.

Confronting his wife about her erratic behavior, Soon-young says that he does not understand why she is acting like this, but in response, Jae-won flings a pot to the ground and walks away from him. As Jae-won drives her car through a barricade, she narrates, “The cracks created by the truth tore down my happiness.” The teaser flickers between Jae-won’s shocked face with Soon-young’s apathetic one, and then ends with a bright light shining towards Jae-won.

Written by Baek Sun-hee and directed by PD Jo Soo-won (Today’s Webtoon, Thirty But Seventeen), TV Chosun’s My Happy End premieres December 30 in the Saturday-Sunday slot.
