A new drama is in the works for JTBC called Green Mothers’ Club and casting has been confirmed for Lee Yo-won (Running Investigators), joining Chu Ja-hyun (Unfamilar Family).
In what seems to be a slice-of-life style story, the drama is aiming for a realistic angle, with its plot being anchored by regular women in real life settings. Five mothers who first meet through their children’s school community each each come from different environments and lifestyles, and have their own personal insecurities and struggles. But they bond over their shared motherhood and are open with each other about their day-to-day lives. We then follow the characters as their friendship deepens, and they learn to heal and grow through their comforting support for one another.
Not much information was released yet about the individual characters, but both actresses reported that the roles were different from previous ones that they’ve played. Lee Yo-won explained that she was attracted by the complexity of her character and both actresses were keen to challenge themselves in new ways.
Written by Shin Yi-won and directed by PD Ra Hana (Human Luwak), JTBC drama Green Mothers’ Club is currently still in the planning stages.
