Chae Jung Ahn's drama Yongpal ends well.

Ever since debuted in the acting industry for nearly 20 years, it was the time actress Chae Jung Ahn shine in her latest SBS drama Yongpal that wrapped up so well with high ratings at 20% over. Her co-stars Joo Won, Kim Tae Hee and Jo Hyun Jae were enjoying massive success from the drama's popularity.


In 2007, Chae plays as Han Yoo Joo in the popular drama The 1st Shop of Coffee Prince who was Gong Yoo's first love - a typical woman who is career minded and ended up dating different men later on. In the past Chae used to portray those type of roles and it was good this round she is playing a different role- a vicious type of character. She was also in the dramas Queen of Reversals, When a Man Falls In Love, The Prime Minister and I and A New Leaf. 

In Yongpal, Chae plays as Lee Chae Young - a rich woman who marries a man whom she doesn't love at all. Then she started plotting her revenge but tormenting the marriage and relationship with her husband Han Do Joon (played by Jo Hyun Jae). Despite all the spites and insults, Do Joon ignores her but keeps her as his official wife in the Hanshin Group. She betrays the husband and sucks up to the abandoned heiress Yeo Jin (played by Kim Tae Hee). However Chae Young has tons of motives behind her plans. Chae Young is a woman in disguise- she wanted to punish Do Joon and greed for the wealth and status for her own.


Chae Young's apperances, fashion and movements do attract lots of attention from viewers and netizens. She is often dressed in colorful striking clothes and accessories due to her status. In the beginning Chae Young takes an interest in the young skillful doctor Tae Hyun (played by Joo Won) whom she often thinks he's like her cousin brother. Chae Young's failed marriage has led her to seeking younger bachelors. 

Chae Young is always waiting for the right time to strike back and avenge. Eventually her revenge on Yeo Jin has failed as Tae Hyun and Sang Chul protected her well.
She was keeping the faith that she will be the new owner of Hanshin Group thinking she can dispose off the sick Yeo Jin however because of her lies/revenge and coming down from the 12th floor of Hanshin Hospital has ruined her. 


Yongpal drama has topped the 20% ratings of viewership for the past one year in 6 times and has become one of this year's biggest hit drama. The final episode recorded 20.4% and the highest rating soared up to 25.62%. 

On 4th October, Chae Jung Ahn has attended the Busan International Film Festivals 2015.
She mentioned love melodramas as if you love your friends.  

Well done to the casts and crew of Yongpal drama. They all deserved a good pat on the back for their hard work and efforts. Now let's look forward for them to receive some awards for end of year's SBS Drama Awards.
