Kim Hee Sun is set to showcase her talents as a former home-shopping host in the upcoming episode of the comedy series “No Next Life.” The show features Kim Hee Sun alongside co-stars Han Hye Jin and Jin Seo Yeon, portraying three women navigating the challenges of their 40s while juggling work and parenting. The latest episode, airing on November 17, 2023, at 10 p.m. KST, promises to highlight a pivotal moment for Kim’s character, Jo Na Jung.
In the previous episode, Na Jung successfully secured a spot in a return-to-work program designed for mothers who have paused their careers. Despite facing resistance from her husband, competition from a former schoolmate, and condescension from a colleague, Na Jung is determined to regain her footing in the professional world.
In tonight’s episode, the narrative shifts as Na Jung embraces her past as a top-earning home shopping presenter. Newly released promotional stills depict her confidently navigating a kindergarten flea market, where she supports her friend’s daughter by selling handmade scrubbers. One image shows Na Jung holding a red basin, while another captures her joyfully displaying a scrubber, clad in pink rubber gloves. This moment serves as a reminder of her former glory, as her enthusiasm reignites the persona of the legendary “Jo Na Jung, the home-shopping ace.”
As the episode unfolds, viewers are eager to witness how this experience might serve as a turning point for Na Jung, helping her reclaim her lost confidence. The series itself has resonated with audiences, skillfully blending humor with the relatable struggles of middle age.
Fans can look forward to the next installment of “No Next Life,” which continues to explore the dynamics of friendship and self-discovery. In the meantime, those interested can catch Kim Hee Sun in the series “Bitter Sweet Hell,” available for streaming on Viki.
