On March 28th, an entertainment official announced, "Han Ji Eun will be the main character of the new drama 'Ask the Stars' which is a drama set in Korea's first attempt at a space station with a five-year preparation period, and drew attention early on.

Han Ji Eun will play Choi Eun, the CEO of Mirae Electronics in the current Mirae Group.
