Bringing back the popular comedic film Miss Granny (2014), Kim Hae Sook and Jung Ji So star in the upcoming remake Who Is She! We cover why this is a must-watch in your winter K-drama playlist!
Who Is She is set to be all about romance, humor and everything about older Korean women or "halmoni" (grandmother),.
Over the years the famous film has had multiple remakes in other countries, however, this up-and-coming series is set to be something special! Let's see why!
Synopsis
The series follows a woman in her 70s, Oh Mal Soon (Kim Hae Sook Mr. Plankton 2024) who suddenly transforms into a 20-year-old with a different name, Oh Doo Ri (Jung Ji So The Glory 2022), and gets a second chance at living out her dream as a singer.
The humorous trailer shows the elderly Oh Mal Soon stepping up to the mic as a contestant in a singing contest, which to us screams everything classic Korean! Later, as she sings her heart out at Karaoke, she complains in a voice-over "Is it a crime to be old?"
Later, to Oh Mal Soon's surprise, she transforms into a young Oh Doo Ri, who looks young, but still talks and acts exactly like Oh Mal Soon. As she adjusts to her new body, Oh Doo Ri asks in confusion, “In your eyes, do I look like an old woman or a young miss?”
Next, idol producer Daniel Han (B1A4’s Jung Jinyoung) shocks Oh Doo Ri by telling her that she has exactly three months left until her debut. “I have faith in you," he says, leading Oh Doo Ri to exclaim, “I’m in disbelief.” However, as she passionately practices for her girl group debut, Oh Doo Ri declares, “So what if this is a dream or a curse? When I’m this young and fresh right now.”
