tvN's new weekend drama "I Trust This Life" (directed by Lee Na-jung, written by Choi Young-lim, produced by Studio Dragon, Studio N, and Hwa and Cut) is a fast-paced reincarnation romance that unfolds as "Ban Ji-eun," who remembers her past lives, must meet the person she must absolutely encounter, "Moon Soo-ho."
Based on the popular Naver webtoon of the same name by Lee Hye, which has accumulated a global total of approximately 700 million views and is hailed as a top-notch sensation, the drama is expected to ignite the "reincarnation romance" trend in the first half of 2023 with director Lee Na-jung, known for "Mine," "Love Alarm," and "Ssam, My Way," at the helm.
In particular, Shin Hye-sun, who is acclaimed as the "unrivaled goddess of fantasy," is raising expectations as the protagonist of the "reckless reincarnation romance."
In the drama, Shin Hye-sun takes on the role of Ban Ji-eun, a woman who remembers her past lives for a thousand years. Ban Ji-eun will mobilize her accumulated abilities from her past lives to chase after Moon Soo-ho (played by Ahn Bo-hyun) and unravel the threads of destiny that traverse the past and the present.
On the 15th, the production team of "I Trust This Life" released the first filming still of Shin Hye-sun, attracting attention.
In the revealed still, Shin Hye-sun captivates with her lovely and innocent appearance.
Furthermore, her gaze, filled with deep thoughts and tender emotions as she gazes at the sky, raises curiosity about Ban Ji-eun, who, unlike ordinary people, carries the weariness of living through countless past lives spanning a thousand years.
In addition, Shin Hye-sun is seen looking at Ahn Bo-hyun, who stands at the center of her 19th life.
With a determined and charismatic charm that seems to engrave his face in her heart, her eyes express a fearless determination to pursue Moon Soo-ho, the "reason for this life," intensifying interest in their audacious and heart-fluttering romance where she goes full throttle in her current life for Moon Soo-ho.
With Shin Hye-sun's transformation into Ban Ji-eun, who lives her 19th life after 18 reincarnations, viewers' curiosity is rising about the reincarnation romance that she must experience with Moon Soo-ho and whether she can once again move his heart from the frozen time she is trapped in.
The production team of tvN's "I Trust This Life" commented, "We believed that no one would be more suitable for the role of Ban Ji-eun than Shin Hye-sun," adding, "Shin Hye-sun, with her solid acting skills honed through her long career, is creating a dimensional and captivating character who is honest and confident in love as Ban Ji-eun and is also experienced and broad-minded as the 19th life of Ban Ji-eun. Viewers will also be captivated by Shin Hye-sun's charm as she strives to win Ahn Bo-hyun's love."
