Family By Choice is gearing up to captivate audiences with its heartwarming tale of a family that’s closer than blood.
The upcoming JTBC drama stars Hwang In Youp, Jung Chaeyeon, Bae Hyun Sung, Choi Won Young, and Choi Moo Sung, who have already formed a strong bond during the script reading. The five actors, who are expected to transcend generational boundaries with their performances, have already shown remarkable synergy, sparking curiosity about the dynamic they will bring to the screen.

The drama promises to explore the complexities of love and relationships as these characters navigate their shared pasts and uncertain futures.
Hwang In Youp, Jung Chaeyeon, and Bae Hyun Sung bring a youthful and refreshing dynamic to the drama. Their on-screen interactions are filled with laughter and camaraderie, mirroring the playful banter of real siblings. Choi Won Young and Choi Moo Sung, seasoned actors with powerful presences, add depth and complexity to the story. Their portrayals of the two fathers, Yoon Jung-jae and Kim Dae-wook, are filled with warmth, affection, and occasional bickering.

As the reading progressed, the actors seamlessly embodied their characters, fully immersing themselves in the script. Their dialogue, which flowed effortlessly between dialect and standard language, painted a vivid picture of the fictional port city of Haedong, the drama’s setting. The lively banter and interactions between the characters brought the script to life.
The series promises to deliver a touching and relatable story about a family bound not by blood, but by the deep affection and shared experiences that make them stronger together.
