Lee Yoo Mi and Ong Seung Woo to Star in K-drama Strong Woman Kang Nam Soon the Sequel to Strong Woman Do Bong Soon
The breakout from Squid Game has vaulted Lee Yoo Mi to the headlining spot and she’s signed on for the upcoming Strong Woman Kang Nam Soon, the sequel to the Park Bo Young and Park Hyung Sik drama Strong Woman Do Bong Soon. The male lead will be Ong Seung Woo with Byun Woo Seok as the second male lead, and the drama will involve the mother-daughter relationships as well with Kim Jung Eun and Kim Hae Sook as the veteran actresses. The Kang Nam Soon of this drama is Do Bong Soon’s distant cousin with the same massive strength which spans both her mom and grandma so three generations of kickass ladies. It’s from the same writer of Baek Mi Kyung and has the PD of Work Later, Drink Now.

I watched the original just for Park Hyung Sik and Park Bo Young. I'll skip this one since non of my faves are in it. Good luck to it though - hope it makes me want to watch it when it airs.
It'll be great if PBY and PHS could make cameo appearances. I wonder why the producers want to do a sequel. Have they run out of stories to write? There will be endless comparisons in terms of chemistry and comedic set ups.
I feel like Strong Woman Do Bong Soon relied heavily on the chemistry between the leads and really funny supporting cast. The story wasn’t strong by any means, and I can see this being a disaster. I liked Lee Yoo Mi a lot from Squid Game, so I hope this turns out good!
Totally. The chemistry is a giant-size shoe that they have to fill...
Having watched LYM's work in zombie dramas and 365 RTY she didn't strike me as having comedy chops. I would much rather see Kang Mina or even Lee Hyeri in the role. My dream of Min Bong crime fighting family with their twin girls are forever dashed. Imagine the endless possibilities of new plotlines.
PBY and PHS had a great chemistry but it was the only good thing of this drama, the story and the characters weren't good. After Melting Me Softly, I though would understand that the writer is not really good...
PHS and PBY chemistry + the gang's members were the best things of the drama . And I dare to say that Park Hyung Shik was the one who really shined . Ong Seung Woo hasn't the same charism .
