Kang Haneul is ready for his close-up in KBS’s Curtain Call

With the premiere now just days away, KBS’s Curtain Call has been pushing out their last round of promos, including a beautiful new poster and video teaser.

At the center of the poster is our story’s head matriarch Ja Geum-soon – played by Go Du-shim (Our Blues) – who accomplished great things during her long life except for one desperate dream. While fleeing during the Korean War, she was separated from her husband and child, and to this day she hopes of seeing her lost family again.

This brings us to Kang Haneul’s (Insider) Yoo Jae-hun, a struggling theater actor who is approached one day by Granny Geum-soon’s aide – Sung Dong-il (If You Wish Upon Me). Although it’s not a conventional acting job, Jae-hun’s heart (and wallet) can’t refuse the offer. All he has to do, after all, is simply make Granny happy by becoming her long-lost grandson for just three months. What could go wrong?

In the meantime, Granny’s actual granddaughter Park Se-yeon – played by Ha Ji-won (Chocolate) – is working tirelessly to preserve Granny’s legacy. But her biggest obstacle is eldest brother Park Se-joon – played by Ji Seung-hyun (Why Her) – who is currently the largest shareholder and is looking to sell. (On a side note, I’ve never seen one of Ji’s characters smile that widely before and I don’t know whether to be smitten or scared.)

The new  teaser opens with our hero explaining his new “acting” job, helpfully providing Granny Geum-soon’s backstory. But when Jae-hun is presented to the family, the ever suspicious Se-joon orders a background check – leading us to the mysterious Noh Sang-hyun (Pachinko).

With Jung Ji-so (Hellbound) acting as Jae-hun’s wife, Granny’s aide confirms that she and Jae-hun are simply temporary guests. We then jump to chaebol businessman Kwon Sang-woo (Critical X) who re-appears in Se-yeon’s life. But Se-yeon’s eyes are only on Jae-hun and the video teaser ends on her hope that Jae-hun will stick around.

Written by Jo Sung-keol (The Target) with PD Yoon Sang-ho (Jinxed at First) at the helm, KBS’s Curtain Call premieres this coming Monday on October 31, following The Law Cafe in the Monday-Tuesday slot.
