In 2017, the television series Go Back Couple won over the screens on the weekend with the power couple Jang Na Ra and Son Ho Joon bagging the role of main leads. The story was about a middle-aged couple with a son who was unhappy with their lives.
One day, they wake up to find the wheel of time going backward as they are now 20-year-old university students. Not knowing how long it will last, they make the best use of it as love gets another chance. Nobody ever got over the drama, and their onscreen chemistry was highly appreciated by the viewers.
Since then, the two have not gotten a project together to fulfill the desires of the fans, but finally, the wait is over. The two are ready to rule the hearts and screens again as they return as a married couple in the upcoming K-drama ‘My Happy End’. Let’s find out in detail about this professional reunion of the costars after six years in this article.
‘My Happy End’ First Look: The “Go Back Couple” stars are back!
The first trailer of the show has already dropped a while ago. Jang Na Ra, the versatile actress, is gearing up for the role of a CEO named Seo Jae Won in the upcoming drama My Happy End. Her childhood was traumatic, which made her unhappy and chasing success every single time.
After years of obsession and hard work, she becomes the righteous owner of a big fortune with wealth and an equally flourishing personal life. Her furniture company is doing well, with her social media reach growing at a good pace. Her husband, Heo Soon Young, played by Son Ho Joon, is the best man possible who prioritizes his family.
He is a freelance designer with the calmest temperament. Seo Jae Won hires a talented designer, Yoon Te-O(played by Lee Ki-Taek), to work at her company. Jae Won also reunites with her university companion, Kwon Yoo-Jin (So E-Hyun).
Despite studying from the same place, the latter shares the opposite fate as her career is on the verge of collapsing, and her failed marriage and divorce keep troubling her.
She gets jealous of the perfect life Jae Won is living. However, things quickly come crashing down when Jae Won gets to know that people around her have been betraying her and keeping secrets. Seeing her close ones turning their back on her, she is driven into the dark world again as she cannot trust anyone anymore.

Jang Na Ra and Son Ho Joon: An Unhappy Married Couple Again?
Although more information about the drama is yet to be revealed, the trailer hints at the betrayal Seo Jae Won (Jang Na Ra) will face from her loved ones. Seems like her picture-perfect life will be shattering into a million pieces again as her marriage will not be her happy place anymore.
Jang Na Ra and Son Ho Joon are playing a married couple again after six years, and adding to the similarities with “Go Back Couple,” she also has a child with her beloved. Just like she struggled with her husband in the 2017 K-drama, this time, she is in a tough spot again.
Perhaps it’s just her trauma making her question everything, and we may get to see the perfect chemistry and romance between Seo Jae Won and Son Ho Joon, who will ultimately have a happy ending, as the name of the K-drama hints. I hope this one does not end up giving a K-trauma, as we will live for those happy endings of our favorite couples!
When is My Happy End Scheduled to Release?
The drama is expected to be out in October this year and will be airing on Saturdays and Sundays. It is TV Chosun, the local South Korean Television network, that has made this dreamy reunion possible. So the viewers can tune in on TV Chosun when the drama airs.
It is also expected to have 16 episodes, which will run for over an hour and ten minutes to deliver a perfect suspense drama. You can expect it to be centered around the themes of physiological thriller and mystery instead of being romance-centric. Regardless, Ho Joon and Na Ra are bliss when they share the screen. Add the drama to your binge list in advance because who can afford to miss them?
