Go Youn-jung to Star in 'Moving Season 2' and 'Nambeol,' Bridging OTT and Cinema

Actor Go Youn-jung has confirmed her upcoming projects, spanning both a series and a film.

In the Disney+ original series 'Moving Season 2,' she will continue the story of Jang Hee-soo, a character who was well-loved in the first season. Additionally, in the film 'Nambeol,' the directorial debut of cinematographer Lee Mo-gae, she is set to showcase action performances unlike any she has displayed before.

According to her agency, AAP, Go is currently undergoing training in action and horseback riding for 'Nambeol.' She also plans to continue her preparations to convincingly portray the movements and action sequences of Jang Hee-soo in 'Moving Season 2.'

The film 'Nambeol' is a hard-boiled martial arts action movie set in the early Joseon Dynasty, following nine warriors of varying abilities and social standings as they head to Tsushima Island to rescue captives abducted by Japanese raiders. Go plays the role of Aeryeong, a woman who loses her family in a raid by the Japanese and throws herself into the battlefield to save her younger sibling held captive on Tsushima. Aeryeong is a character who carries both the pain of loss and a determined purpose she must fulfill.

Go is expected to display a new side of her charm by delicately depicting the process through which the character's desperation translates into action. In particular, she plans to embody the movements and survival instincts of Aeryeong on the Joseon-era battlefield through rigorous preparation, including action and horseback riding training.

Unlike Aeryeong, whom she will introduce for the first time in 'Nambeol,' Go will return as Jang Hee-soo in 'Moving Season 2' to portray the growth and changes of the character with greater depth. 'Moving Season 2' is a human action series about superpowered individuals who have returned to their daily lives following the Jeongwon High School incident, only to face a new crisis and engage in a battle once again to protect those dear to them.

Jang Hee-soo, played by Go, is a character who possesses both warmth and strength. Go is set to once again showcase the inner world of Jang Hee-soo—who has continuously made choices and grown while protecting her family and friends—through her signature calm and restrained emotional acting.

In the second season, she is expected to not only show the changes and growth of Jang Hee-soo as she faces crises but also lead the character's emotions and movements at the center of an expanded human action narrative.
