Jung Ae Yeon, Han Groo, And More Make Final Special Appearances In “Confidence Queen”

With only two episodes left until its finale, TV CHOSUN’s “Confidence Queen” has unveiled its final lineup of special appearances!A Korean adaptation of the 2018 Japanese drama “The Confidence Man JP,” “Confidence Queen” tells the story of three talented con artists who pull off elaborate scams targeting villains from all walks of life. Park Min Young stars in the drama as team leader Yoon Yi Rang, a genius con artist with an IQ of 165. Park Hee Soon plays James, a charming master of disguise, while Joo Jong Hyuk plays Myung Gu Ho, the youngest member of the team.Veteran actors Kang Nam Gil and Uhm Hyo Sup will make memorable special appearances as Grandpa Jo Man Bok and Minister Yoo Sang Won of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, and Transport, respectively. Living in a tiny, low-cost room, Jo Man Bok is a comic yet endearing figure—dressed in a ketchup-stained T-shirt, holding an egg roll, and wearing a startled expression that adds to his charm. In contrast, Yoo Sang Won exudes refined sophistication in a sleek suit, his gentle smile and courteous demeanor amplifying his gentlemanly presence. Meanwhile, Jung Ae Yeon, Han Groo, and Yeo Hoe Hyun each add their own unique color to the story. Jung Ae Yeon transforms into Lee Na Ra, an acting attorney at J Fund International, while Han Groo takes on the role of Go Sang Hee, James’s romantic interest.

Lee Na Ra’s resolute expression as she clutches her tablet underscores her determination, while Go Sang Hee lights up the scene with her lively smile and playful energy, sporting a frilled blouse and holding a soju glass. Meanwhile, Yeo Hoe Hyun perfectly embodies his character’s arrogance and sense of entitlement.The three cast members also shared their excitement about joining the project.
