According to Ten Asia’s report on the 25th, Choo So Jung will join the cast of 'Divorce Insurance,' an office romantic comedy centered on the innovative product development team of an insurance company. The drama explores the creation of a product called "Divorce Insurance" and features a team of top-tier professionals tasked with its development. Lee Dong Wook, Lee Joo Bin, Lee Kwang Soo, and Lee Da Hee have been confirmed as lead actors, with Choo So Jung portraying a member of the development team.

The drama promises a fresh and relatable storyline, using the unique concept of "Divorce Insurance," which quantifies divorce-related factors to determine insurance coverage.

She showcased her acting skills in the 2021 drama 'IDOL [Idol: The Coup],' where she delivered a memorable performance, and made a notable special appearance last month in the drama 'Marry You,' playing Lee Yi Kyung’s blind date partner. Despite her brief screen time, her strong presence left an impression on viewers.

She is also awaiting the release of the drama 'Huh’s Kitchen' and the movie 'Eighteen Youth,' both of which have completed filming. 'Huh’s Kitchen' is a fantasy comedy in which Choo So Jung takes on her first romantic lead role, working alongside EXO’s Xiumin.
