Lee Cho-hee and Heo Nam-joon Star as Unique Space Scientists in 'Ask the Stars'

Lee Cho-hee (이초희) and Heo Nam-joon (허남준) are set to portray distinctive space scientists in the upcoming tvN drama 'Ask the Stars' (별들에게 물어봐), which premieres on January 4, 2025, at 9:20 PM. This new Saturday-Sunday series, written by Seo Suk-hyang (서숙향) and directed by Park Shin-woo (박신우), follows the story of Eve (공효진), the boss of a space station, and a mysterious visitor named Dinosaur (이민호) who has a secret mission. The show is anticipated to be the first space office drama in South Korea, making it one of tvN's most awaited projects for the first half of 2025.

In the series, Lee Cho-hee plays Mina Lee, a passionate space scientist responsible for the plants aboard the International Lunar Station (ILS). Mina is characterized by her caring yet timid nature, constantly worrying about her crops of lettuce and tomatoes, fearing they might mold or wilt.

On the other hand, Heo Nam-joon portrays Lee Seung-joon, a space scientist studying mice in the station. Coming from a poor background, he is a self-made man who has risen to the heights of the space station, finding the dangers of space more appealing than the noisy life on Earth.

Despite their different reasons for being in space and their distinct research areas, Mina Lee and Lee Seung-joon will bring a lively energy to the barren environment of the space station, creating a delightful dynamic. Viewers are eager to see what possibilities they will discover as they navigate life in zero gravity.

The transformation of Lee Cho-hee and Heo Nam-joon into their respective characters promises to showcase a charm never seen before. With Lee Cho-hee sporting a cute short haircut and Heo Nam-joon being one of the rising stars in the industry, the synergy between the two is highly anticipated as 'Ask the Stars' prepares for its premiere.
