JTBC's new Saturday-Sunday drama "Everyone Is Fighting Their Own Worthlessness" (hereinafter "Moja Mussa") will premiere on April 18 at 10:40 PM.
"Moja Mussa" is a work produced through the collaboration of director Cha Young-hoon and writer Park Hae-young, depicting the journey of one person struggling with envy and jealousy while being the only one failing among successful friends, seeking peace. The drama features a large cast of talented actors including Koo Kyo-hwan, Go Yoon-jung, Oh Jung-se, Kang Mal-geum, Park Hae-joon, and Han Sun-hwa, raising expectations. Koo Kyo-hwan plays Hwang Dong-man, who has dreamed of debuting as a film director for 20 years, and Go Yoon-jung portrays PD Byun Eun-ah. Oh Jung-se plays director Park Kyung-se, who suffers from inferiority complex trapped by the reputation of his debut work, and Kang Mal-geum takes on the role of Go Hye-jin, CEO of Go Park Film. Park Hae-joon acts as former poet Hwang Jin-man, and Han Sun-hwa plays top star Jang Mi-ran, who struggles to find her true value.
In addition, various actors such as Bae Jong-ok (top actress Oh Jung-hee), Choi Won-young (CEO Choi Dong-hyun of Choi Film), Jeon Bae-soo (film director Park Young-soo), Shim Hee-seop (Choi Film director Lee Joon-hwan), Bae Myung-jin (Lee Gi-ri), Jo Min-guk (Woo Seung-tae), and Park Ye-ni (Choi Film planning PD Choi Hyo-jin) form an ensemble by establishing different relationships with Hwang Dong-man.
Director Cha Young-hoon has been noted for his direction capturing the solidarity of ordinary people, and writer Park Hae-young for dialogues that deeply portray the abyss of life. In this work as well, lines from the released teaser videos such as "If you fight for your life every day, you really die!" and "Not being anxious, I just need not to be anxious" have attracted attention. Writer Park Hae-young's dialogues are expected to gain three-dimensional vitality when combined with director Cha Young-hoon's delicate direction.
The drama transparently depicts the base emotions humans feel such as worthlessness, envy, jealousy, and anxiety without glorifying them. It centers on the image of a character who rambles to hide their own worthlessness, and the message that if one cannot embrace even such a person, they cannot love themselves either. The work portrays not a race toward success, but a process of liberation by accepting one's petty self.
"Moja Mussa" will premiere tonight (the 18th) at 10:40 PM on JTBC.
