Lee Young Ae becomes a genius female conductor in tvN’s new weekend drama.
Maestra: Strings of Truth is a mystery drama about Cha Se-eum, portrayed by Lee Young Ae (Inspector Koo, Jewel In The Palace).
She is one of only 5% of female conductors in the world, and a genius or legend, who searches for the truth about the events surrounding the orchestra while hiding her secret. The story is based on Philharmonia – a French drama.
From mystery to human to melodrama, the renowned actress will portray the struggles and growth she experiences as a female conductor.
Maestra Se Eum is a passionate person who rehearses eagerly as if there was no tomorrow. Everyone was envious of her position. Little did they know that her life would be greatly shaken by a secret that others did not know about her.
Genius Maestra, Cha Se-eum
Additionally, Cha Se-eum is a world-renowned female conductor who is renowned in the United States and Europe. She is a show-up genius who is bold, and passionate. She can sometimes take unconventional steps without hesitation.
With her charisma that overwhelms the crowd and her delicate interpretation of songs, she is a leader on stage, and even though there are admirers and detractors of her style, her skills can’t be questioned.
Interestingly, Se-eum chose the Hangang Philharmonic Orchestra, a third-rate orchestra in Korea, despite offers from the world’s most prestigious orchestras.
Her decision to move to Korea after 20 years was shocking enough to turn the classical world upside down, but she had many reasons and circumstances to do so.
Attention is being paid to Lee Young-ae’s transformation, which will captivately portray a character with such an interesting narrative.
In the released character stills, attention is focused on Cha Se-eum’s sophisticated appearance and confident posture without losing composure. A clear sense of self-confidence can be felt in her soft smile, befitting her title of ‘the perfect female leader.’
The moments when one is immersed in the interpretation of her work and how to present her music give a glimpse into the artist’s agonizing side.
Notably, Cha Se-eum, who holds the baton on her podium, shines especially brightly. Before starting her long musical journey, her brilliantly shining eyes, as if she is reorganizing her battle lines, show her control over her numerous performers.
Accordingly, expectations are high for a strong performance from Lee Young-ae, who will again show off her sincere acting as her unique character, Maestra Cha Se-eum.
Maestra: Strings of Truth will be broadcast for the first time at 9:20 p.m. on Saturday, December 9.
