Can’t get enough of Nam Ji-hyun? Here are 5 K-dramas where Nam Ji-hyun is an absolute treat to watch!
With her witty banter and unique quirks, you can’t get enough of Hong-shim in the K-drama 100 Days My Prince, played by Nam Ji-hyun. Her charming smile and gorgeous brown eyes express every emotion so vividly, *and* have made her a household favourite. She debuted at nine, blossoming into the acclaimed actress she is today with time. She is well known for exploring diverse roles– from Suspicious Partner to Little Women. She has given her all to bring those characters to life. Here are 5 K-dramas where Nam Ji-hyun is an absolute charm and a treat to watch!
Little Women (2022)
Nam Ji-hyun plays the resilient and hard-working Oh In-kyung. She is independent and holds strong beliefs while juggling the cycle of poverty and work. To escape her reality, she succumbs to alcoholism, which ultimately costs her job. However, she overcomes her personal battles to pursue justice and save her sisters. If you are a mystery-thriller fanatic, you’ll appreciate the plot, which revolves around In-kyung and her sisters as they go against one of the wealthiest families in the country and uncover their deepest secrets.
365: Repeat the Year (2020)
Would you take the chance to travel back in time by a year to undo your mistakes without knowing their consequences? We are met with the same premise in 365: Repeat the Year, where Nam Ji-hyun plays Shin Ga-hyun, a webtoon author who met an accident that has left her unable to walk, taking this chance to revert her accident and the struggles she faced in the past year. She and nine other people take this chance when mysterious events tangle their lives together with an unseemly killer on the loose.
100 Days My Prince (2019)
Here’s a romantic comedy with hints of mystery set in the historical period – 100 Days My Prince revolves around the story of the crown prince, the victim of a conspired struggle for the throne. The prince loses his memories and starts living with Yeon Hong-shim (played by Nam Ji-hyun), who appears to be a commoner but has a secret of her own. The story is full of funny banter and romantic moments as the unlikely couple slowly falls in love and the crown prince slowly regains his memories.
Suspicious Partner (2017)
Somehow, Nam Ji-hyun’s character, Bong-hee, is accused of killing her ex-boyfriend. This was the most unsettling of all the embarrassing situations she had been in. This gets her tangled with Ji-wook, a prosecutor turned private attorney. While working on this case, their careers are jeopardised. However, they get closer as their love brews. Soon, they realise that the killer they are trying to find is a bigger menace than anticipated. This drama is a perfect mix of swooning romance, giddy comedy and a chilling thriller.
The Witch’s Diner (2021)
Jung-jin’s perfect life comes crashing down – her job, love life, and other prospects are all ruined. With her mother’s help, she tries to get back on her feet but has no luck. Fate brings her to Hee-ra, who offers to change her life for the better for a small price. The drama revolves around the saying, “Careful for what you might wish for because it might just come true.” It builds upon a supernatural-mysterious plot with slight romance. If it’s something unique that you crave for, then this drama is a must for you.
