Byeon Woo seok & Park Ji hoon Return in Flower Crew Re-Broadcast
Facing severe financial restructuring under corporate rehabilitation proceedings, JTBC is pivoting to a unique strategy to anchor its weekend primetime slot: opening its vault to re-air fan-favorite classics under a new showcase banner, Drama Jewel Box.
Taking over the time slot following the conclusion of The Apartment Job, the network is re-broadcasting the 2019 historical rom-com Flower Crew: Joseon Marriage Agency starting Saturday, August 22.
Unlocking the Jewel Box: Why Flower Crew?
JTBC entered corporate rehabilitation earlier this summer after experiencing liquidity challenges. With several upcoming production schedules delayed, the network introduced its “Drama Jewel Box” programming strategy to maintain high viewer engagement without incurring fresh production costs.
Flower Crew: Joseon Marriage Agencyâwhich originally recorded a solid 4.3% rating during its initial 16-episode run in 2019âserves as the flagship title. The major draw for modern audiences is its star-studded young cast, featuring top-tier actors before their breakout rises to mega-stardom: Byeon Woo seok, Park Ji hoon, Kim Min jae, Gong Seung yeon, and Seo Ji hoon.
Young Byeon Woo seok and Park Ji hoon in One Frame
For fans of Byeon Woo seok and Park Ji hoon, the re-broadcast offers a rare chance to revisit their early rookie days side-by-side:
- Byeon Woo seok as Do Joon: The charismatic, laid-back information broker and matchmaker of the Flower Crew who hides a deeper emotional pain beneath his playful demeanor.
- Park Ji hoon as Go Young soo: The adorable, fashion-obsessed youngest matchmaker of the crew who brings puppy-like charm and energy to every scene.
The series follows Joseonâs top matchmaking agency as they attempt to transform the King’s humble first love, Gae-ddong (Gong Seung yeon), into a refined noblewoman to pull off the ultimate royal marriage match.
