Set in the 1990s, the office comedy "Undercover Miss Hong" (tentatively translated: Miss Hong disguised) revolves around Hong Geum Bo (Park Shin Hye) - an excellent female inspector at the Financial Supervisory Agency.
In a secret mission, she infiltrates a securities company with the status of Hong Jang Mi - a subordinate employee. In the process, she is also drawn into a chaotic relationship with ambitious CEO Shin Jung Woo (Go Kyung Pyo).
Undercover Miss Hong" is a highly anticipated work when it airs in January. Female lead Park Shin Hye herself said that the film's attraction is "the relationship between the characters" and the interesting interaction between Geum Bo and her roommate living in dormitory room 301.
Meanwhile, Korean media commented that 2 opposite aspects of Park Shin Hye in the project are factors that attract attention.
In the images released by the producer, it can be seen that Geum Bo always appears in a neat vest, smooth long hair and a calm, confident face; while the Jang Mi version is warm and bright with short bob hair and personal hip-hop outfits.
Speaking about the "transformation of identity", Park Shin Hye admitted: "Playing a 20-year-old girl is really a burden. Because I debuted when I was very young, so many viewers still remember my image when I was really 20 years old, but time passes is inevitable.
In this project, the star born in 1990 said that she spent a lot of effort to change her appearance to suit the younger role. "To create a clear contrast, I have focused a lot on hairstyles and costumes. Even when my face looks a bit mature, I still try to compensate with fashion and hairstyles.
In addition, the actress also focuses on her voice and way of speaking for each character to suit her age.
The movie "Undercover Miss Hong" is scheduled to be released from the evening of January 17.
