"Beautiful World" is a drama about trust, betrayal, and pain in the search for hope. Choi Yeon-ho's role will be as the mother of Da-hee, who is to be played by Park Ji-hu. As Da-hee is to suffer an unfortunate turn of fate, Choi Yeon-ho's reaction as the mother will be critical to selling the drama of that particular plot hook.
Later this year, Choi Yeon-ho will also appear in "When the Devil Calls Your Name". That drama will center around the titular devil Harib, to be played by Jung Kyung-ho, who seeks out human souls in the fantasy drama premise.
Choi Yeon-ho will play the mother of Luca, played by Song Kang, who is taken in to this storyline. Choi Yeon-ho has often played mothers to younger more central characters. Such is perhaps the fate of a relatively minor actress in her late forties, although it's a character type she does play well.
