MBC’s new drama “The Woman Who Swallowed the Sun” has revealed the stark contrast between Jang Shin Young’s and Yoon Ah Jung’s characters!

“The Woman Who Swallowed the Sun” follows the intense journey of Baek Seol Hee (Jang Shin Young), a single mother seeking revenge against a powerful conglomerate family for the sake of her only daughter.

The newly released images spotlight the vastly different worlds of Baek Seol Hee and Min Kyung Chae (Yoon Ah Jung). In one still, Seol Hee beams with a bright smile as she holds her phone, exuding warmth and positivity. Despite her modest appearance, her natural charm effortlessly shines through. Another photo captures her on a scooter, helmet in place, reflecting the strength and resilience of a single mother who has raised her daughter alone for 16 years. As the proud owner of a small eatery, Seol Hee radiates quiet determination and quiet confidence that leave a lasting impression.

In contrast, Min Kyung Chae represents a world of power and privilege. Dressed in a bold red suit, she stands poised before a crowd of reporters, confidently addressing their questions while holding a bouquet. Her commanding presence and unshakable composure highlight the charisma of a polished chaebol heiress—smart, powerful, and self-assured.

As these two women—living on opposite ends of the social spectrum—find their lives unexpectedly entangled, viewers are left wondering: What event will bring them together? And how is the influential Min family connected to the incident that shatters Seol Hee’s once-peaceful life?

“The Woman Who Swallowed the Sun” will premiere on June 9.
