Go Hyun-jung and Yoon Sang-hyun train Ryeoun in Namib

The promo campaign has set sail with a pretty first poster and script reading stills for ENA’s upcoming Namib, promising an underdog tale about music, healing, family, and growth with Go Hyun-jung (Mask Girl) as our heroine and entertainment agency CEO lead.

Although she’s the star producer who brought great success to her company, our story begins with Kang Soo-hyun (Go Hyun-jung) facing a surprising and abrupt termination, leaving her with limited options on how to move forward in her career.

This is when her eyes turn to long-time trainee Ryeoun (Twinkling Watermelon) in the role of Yoo Jin-woo. Having been stuck as an idol trainee for years on end with little hope for a real debut, Jin-woo’s self-confidence is on the rocks and though a challenge, Soo-hyun decides to bank in on his promising talent.

Also stepping up in this new journey is Soo-hyun’s husband Yoon Sang-hyun (Perfect Family). For the last ten years, Shim Jun-seok (Yoon Sang-hyun) was the homemaker and stay-at-home dad for their family. But he used to work in the industry as a music producer and he’s enlisted by Soo-hyun to help with Project Jin-woo.

Coincidentally – though the last names are different – our aspiring singer shares a name twice with Soo-hyun and Jun-seok’s son Shim Jin-woo, who is hearing-impaired (played by Lee Jin-woo (Snap and Spark)).

On the production side, the series has PD Han Sang-jae (Cold Blooded Intern) and PD Kang Min-goo co-directing with screenwriter Eom Sung-min (Default) penning the scripts. Bringing in the holiday cheer with a December 23 premiere, ENA’s Namib will be following Brewing Love in the Monday-Tuesday slot.

So up for this Yoon Sang Hyun and Ryeoun reunion! Having 2 Jin Woo characters with one played by a real Jin Woo is so trippy 😂

Looks like ... hasn't he played an aspiring musician a bit too often. 😂 He has his limitations but he's good. Hopefully he will learn and get better.

I'm not sure if he has completed his military service or is yet to go.

I don't know. I have seen a photo of him wearing a military uniform but I can't find any information.

What a fun cast! I'm all for healing and music and feel good so it's definitely on my list.

They've been so lowkey with the promotions that I'm taking it as a sign this could end up being really good (at least, that's the way 2024 has been going for me so far 😉)
