Actresses Shin Min Ah and Lee Bong Ryun are officially reuniting in Disney+'s upcoming fantasy romance drama The Remarried Empress, five years after working together in the hit series Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha.
On October 29, Lee Bong Ryun was confirmed to join The Remarried Empress, where she will play Eliza, the trusted head court maid who serves Empress Navier, portrayed by Shin Min Ah.
In the drama, Eliza oversees the palace maids of the West Palace and is one of the few people Navier can openly share her true feelings with.
Known for her loyalty, intelligence, and warm personality, Eliza remains by the empress's side and helps her make important decisions during difficult situations.
The casting has drawn attention as it marks Shin Min Ah and Lee Bong Ryun's first drama reunion in five years, following their appearance together in tvN's popular 2021 romantic comedy Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha.
Their previous collaboration showed their natural chemistry on screen, and viewers can now look forward to seeing the actresses together again in a completely different setting.
While Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha focused on life and relationships in a peaceful seaside village, The Remarried Empress will place the two actresses in a royal setting, with Lee Bong Ryun's character serving as a dependable supporter of Shin Min Ah's empress.
Lee Bong Ryun is expected to bring depth to Eliza through her experienced acting, portraying a character who balances strict professionalism with genuine care for Navier.
Based on the popular web novel of the same name, The Remarried Empress follows Empress Navier, whose life changes after Emperor Sovieshu, played by Ju Ji Hoon, announces his decision to divorce her.
Rather than simply accepting her situation, Navier makes an unexpected request involving Prince Heinrey of the Western Kingdom, played by Lee Jong Suk.
The drama also stars Lee Se Young as Rashta.
With Shin Min Ah and Lee Bong Ryun reuniting after five years, their on-screen relationship is expected to be one of the interesting parts of the upcoming series.
The Remarried Empress is scheduled to premiere on November 4 on Disney+, with a total of 10 episodes.
