BoA, the solo singer, is set to make a comeback to acting after a seven-year hiatus. Although her character in the upcoming drama ‘Marry My Husband’ hasn’t been officially revealed, the production team encourages viewers to await the drama’s release to discover her role.
Media outlets and online enthusiasts have been speculating about the character BoA might play in ‘Marry My Husband.’ In the 7th episode aired on January 22, the name “Oh Yu Ra” was casually mentioned, fueling further curiosity.
In conjunction with the mention of “Oh Yu Ra,” a scene between Yu Ji Hyuk (played by Na In Woo) and his grandfather Yu Han Il (played by Moon Sung Geun) included a newspaper photo showing a partial image of a woman’s upper body, adding intrigue to the unfolding storyline.
MyDaily reports that the photograph in the drama aligns with the image of BoA presented by SM Entertainment during a press conference for her 20th debut anniversary album, ‘BETTER,’ in 2020.
As per the original web novel, the character Oh Yu Ra is portrayed as the granddaughter of an influential chaebol family and is engaged to Yu Ji Hyuk through an arranged marriage. Her depiction includes extreme elitist views and a background of school bullying, positioning her as a ‘villain’ character in the narrative.

In a twist of fate, she time-travels a decade back, gaining a second chance at life and plotting revenge. The drama, led by Park Min Young, features a cast including Na In Woo, Lee Yi Kyung, Lee Kikwang, and others.
