My Liberation Diary tells the story of three siblings and a mysterious stranger who wants to escape their frustrating lives. Their “liberation” from the “now” will give the viewers a warm pleasure.

Director Kim Seok Yoon, whose credits include the Detective K series, The Light in Your Eyes, and Law School, will helm the production. His partner is My Mister and Another Miss Oh writer Park Hye Young.

First, Lee Min Ki plays Yeom Chang Hee, the second son who has neither dreams nor desires. He wants to live a wonderful life on his own terms, but his family ignores him. Though he may look simple, his words are often strangely very logical.

Kim Ji Won plays Yeom Mi Jung, the younger daughter who wants to break away from her colorless life. To her, who was born shy, life is nothing but complicated homework. She may smile but become blunt the next minute. Yeon had lived her entire life thinking that she was alone in the whole universe. But wanting to be freed from a life that has never been filled, she starts to change.

Stranger Goo, played by Son Seok Koo, is drunk for 365 days. He’s a mysterious man that showed up in Sanop Village, where people leave but don’t come in. One day, Mi Jung suddenly approaches him, who is living a hollow life.

Lee El takes on the role of Yeom Ki Jung, the eldest daughter who desperately wants love. Commuting to and from Seoul every day for her work, she thinks she spilled all her youth on the road. She’s completely dissatisfied with her life and wants to cut off her loveless life with her hair. But before that, she is dead set on falling in love with a man for one last time.

Meanwhile, My Liberation Diary will premiere next year.
