Actress Jeon Yeo-been is stepping into one of her most emotionally charged roles yet—as a terminally ill actress chasing one last dream in the new SBS weekend drama 'Our Movie', premiering June 13 at 9:50 PM KST.
🎬 "Today could be her last"—but she won't stop acting
In Our Movie (우리영화), Jeon plays Lee Da-eum, a vibrant and warm-hearted aspiring actress battling a rare illness. Despite her diagnosis, she lives each day with contagious energy and refuses to give up on her dream of becoming a lead actress.
Da-eum's life takes a dramatic turn when she's invited to consult on a film—one that happens to feature a terminally ill character. On a whim, she auditions… and lands the lead. What follows is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity: to shine on screen before her own life fades to black.
💊 Painkillers and persistence—Da-eum's fearless fight
Even as her illness progresses, Da-eum pours herself into acting, fueled by passion and hope. She endures through pain, auditions, and film sets, all while embracing every moment she has left.
Still cuts released show Da-eum radiating determination—never letting go of her dream, even as her health declines.
🌅 A bittersweet love story unfolds
Our Movie is not just a story of survival, but also one of love. It follows the poignant relationship between Da-eum and Je-ha (played by Namgoong Min), a director with no future and an actress with no time to spare. Together, they chase a love that can't wait for tomorrow.
💬 "A sunbeam of a character"—Jeon Yeo-been brings Da-eum to life
The production team described Da-eum as "a sunbeam of a character who lives each day with meaning because her time is limited." They added, "With Jeon Yeo-been's heartfelt energy, viewers will find both warmth and comfort in Da-eum's journey."
📺 Coming June 13 on SBS
Following the conclusion of Repatriation (귀국), Our Movie will bring a heartfelt new story to the screen—one that asks what we'd do if today really were our last.
