Kim Young-ok, Dong-ha lead KBS daily drama 'Mom Has Gone Crazy' premiering September 28

A grandmother who plays dumb, a grandson chasing a 23-year-old truth

Mom Has Gone Crazy (엄마가 미쳤어요) hits KBS 1TV on September 28 at 8:30 PM, replacing 기쁜 우리 좋은 날. Director Sung Jun-hae and screenwriter Na Seung-hyun lead the project, produced by Fantiago and Monster Union.

Dong-ha plays Cha Seung-yoon, chief designer at Hwanggeum Apparel and the eldest grandson of matriarch Hwang Geum-soon. His parents died when he was young. He built a career as an international fashion designer in the United States, then abandoned it all to return to Korea and uncover the truth behind his parents' accident from 23 years ago.

Kim Young-ok is Hwang Geum-soon, founder of Hwanggeum Capital. She arrived in Seoul alone with two sons and built the Hwanggeum family from scratch. A traffic accident took her eldest son and his wife. Now she makes a choice: play the fool to shield her grown grandson Cha Seung-yoon from what she knows.

The secret that cracks a stable marriage

Kang Kyung-heon plays Jeon Jin-hee, CEO of Hwanggeum Apparel. Nam Sung-jin plays her husband Cha In-sung. They've maintained a stable, mutually respectful marriage—until Cha Seung-yoon returns. A secret Jeon Jin-hee buried for years surfaces with him. The marriage fractures.

The supporting cast includes Kim Hee-jung as Jo Mi-mi, Jung Min-ah as Kang Da-mi, Kang Eun-tak as Kang Gang-nam, and Kim Jong-hoon as Kang Dae-chi.

The show frames itself as a family growth story built around two mothers. One lived entirely for her family. One lived entirely for herself. Their children end up tangled together. (Daily drama with a fashion-world backdrop and a cold-case mystery at its core—that's the pitch.)

Mom Has Gone Crazy airs weekdays on KBS 1TV starting September 28.
