ENA’s “Namib” has shared a glimpse of the precarious encounter between former trainees Ryeoun and Lee Ki Taek!
“Namib” depicts the meeting of former entertainment agency CEO Kang Soo Hyun (Go Hyun Jung) and longtime trainee Yoo Jin Woo (Ryeoun), who gets kicked out of his agency, as they each head toward their respective goals.
Yoo Jin Woo, a trainee under Pandora Entertainment, possessed musical talent but repeatedly failed to debut, ultimately being let go by the company and left out on the streets. To make matters worse, Yoo Jin Woo is burdened with a debt of 200 million won (approximately $137,900) that his parents borrowed from the agency, forcing him to struggle to find a way to survive on his own.
The person Yoo Jin Woo thinks of in his desperate situation is none other than Chris (Lee Ki Taek), someone he once trained with in the past who now works as a staff member at Club Muse. Chris, who was once a promising talent with great potential, had to give up on his dreams due to an unspecified incident and has completely turned to the darker side of the world.
Although Yoo Jin Woo and Chris now live in completely different worlds, they share the same scar of having been forced to give up on their dreams due to harsh realities. Because of this, Chris, who once cared for Yoo Jin Woo like a younger brother, extends a helping hand by allowing him to stay in his territory.
What complicates matters further is that Yoo Jin Woo, after being let go, receives a scouting offer from Kang Soo Hyun, the former CEO of Pandora Entertainment. This sets the stage for Yoo Jin Woo to face a deeper dilemma between Kang Soo Hyun and Chris. While he harbors a desire to shine once again, he lacks the courage to take on the challenge and does not even have a place to rest his head. Curiosity is high regarding the decision Yoo Jin Woo will ultimately make.
“Namib” will premiere on December 23 at 10 p.m. KST.
