Netflix has confirmed the production and casting of the new series ‘Aema’.

Netflix confirmed the production of the new series ‘Aema’ and revealed the casting of Lee Ha-nui, Bang Hyo-rin, Jin Seon-gyu, and Jo Hyeon-cheol. ‘Aema’ is a Netflix series that tells the story of Hee-ran and Joo-ae’s struggles in the process of making ‘Mrs. Aema’, a movie that hit Korea in the early 1980s. It is a fictional comedy set in Chungmuro ​​in the 1980s, and the story of the actors’ intense lives after their brilliant glory will unfold.

Lee Ha-nui plays the role of Jeong Hee-ran, who was the best actor of her time but lost her role as the main character in the new movie ‘Mrs. Aema’ due to a conflict with the producer. Lee Ha-nui will completely transform into Hee-ran, a person with a hot personality who is harsh with everyone but knows how to clearly judge right from wrong.

The role of Shin Joo-ae, a new actress chosen to play the lead role in ‘Mrs. Aema’, will be played by Bang Hyo-rin, who stood out in the short film industry with her unrivaled atmosphere and dense emotional acting. Joo-ae goes from being an aspiring actress who made her living as a nightclub dancer to being selected as the lead role in Chungmuro’s most popular film, ‘Mrs. Aema’.

The role of producer Goo Joong-ho is played by Jin Seon-gyu. Producer Joong-ho, who goes to any lengths to survive in the Chungmuro ​​movie industry, enriches the narrative of the play by entrusting the lead role to a new actor selected through a large-scale audition to keep the out-of-control Hee-ran in check.

Jo Hyeon-cheol was cast in the role of Kwak In-woo, a dreamy and weak-hearted new director who is about to make his directing debut with ‘Mrs. Aema’. He plans to inject lively energy into the play with his solid acting skills through the role of In-woo, who is struggling between several choices.

Aema’s screenplay and directing was directed by Lee Hae-young, director of ‘Solo Battle’, ‘Ghost’, and ‘Madonna of the World’. Director Lee Hae-young, who has captivated the public with unique materials and attractive characters regardless of genre, plans to invite Netflix viewers around the world to the center of Chungmuro, the mecca of Korean movies in the 1980s, through Aema. Aema’s production company is The Lamp Co., Ltd., which has received favorable reviews from the public and critics by presenting works based on true stories such as ‘Taxi Driver’, ‘Mal Moi’, and ‘Samjin Group English TOEIC Class’, raising expectations.
