Kim Mi Kyung and Park Min Young are reuniting as mother and daughter for the sixth time in SBS's upcoming romantic comedy Nine to Six, continuing one of the most familiar on-screen family pairings in K-drama.
On November 12, it was confirmed that Kim Mi Kyung will join the new SBS Wednesday-Thursday drama, which premieres on November 25 at 9 PM KST.
In Nine to Six, Park Min Young plays Kang Yi Ji, a career-focused woman who has spent her life proving herself through work. Her perspective on love and happiness begins to change after meeting a warm and caring man.
Meanwhile, Kim Mi Kyung takes on the role of Lee Kyung Shim, Kang Yi Ji's mother.
Lee Kyung Shim is a former Korean language teacher who now works as a calligraphy instructor. After raising her daughter alone following a divorce, she places great importance on her daughter's happiness and stability.
Although she deeply cares for her daughter, she also worries about her future, especially when it comes to marriage.
However, what makes this casting particularly interesting is the long history between the two actresses.
Kim Mi Kyung and Park Min Young have previously played mother and daughter in several popular dramas, including Sungkyunkwan Scandal, Her Private Life, and Forecasting Love and Weather.
Their repeated collaborations have made their mother-daughter relationship familiar to many K-drama viewers.
During a variety show appearance last year, Kim Mi Kyung even shared a sweet story about how Park Min Young reacted after learning they would play mother and daughter for the fifth time.
“I've played Park Min Young's mother five times. When we met for the fifth time, she sent me a message saying, 'Mom, we're destined to be together,'” Kim Mi Kyung recalled.
The actress's story highlighted the close relationship they have developed through years of working together.
Now, with Nine to Six marking their sixth mother-daughter pairing, viewers will get to see the two actresses portray another family relationship with a different story.
Kim Mi Kyung has also remained active in various dramas, including A Love Other Than Yours and Netflix's Take Charge of My Heart, where she portrayed characters with different personalities.
This time, she returns to a familiar role as a caring but realistic mother who wants the best for her daughter.
With Park Min Young and Kim Mi Kyung reuniting once again, their sixth collaboration is expected to bring familiar chemistry and emotional family moments to the upcoming romance drama.
Nine to Six will premiere on November 25 at 9 PM KST on SBS.
