Actress Son Na-eun is set to embark on a reward vacation to Guam with the "Manager Kim" team.

According to StarNews' investigation on the 29th, Son Na-eun will participate in the reward vacation schedule for the SBS Saturday-Sunday drama "Manager Kim" (script by Nam Dae-jung, directed by Lee Seung-young and Lee So-eun), scheduled for mid-August.

Son Na-eun, who successfully transformed her acting skills as Jeong Sang-a, an agent of the Special Missions Division in "Manager Kim," is expected to spend time recharging in Guam with the actors and staff who shed sweat together for the production. It is reported that key figures who drove the success of "Manager Kim," including So Ji-sub, Yoon Kyung-ho, and Joo Sang-wook, will also join this reward vacation.

Through "Manager Kim," Son Na-eun took on her first full-fledged action role since her debut, proving an expanded acting spectrum. Playing Jeong Sang-a, a deputy at Sangsaeng Savings Bank where Manager Kim (played by So Ji-sub) worked and an agent of the Special Missions Division, she received praise for delicately portraying complex emotions as she grappled with the sense of responsibility as an agent carrying out missions and her compassion toward Manager Kim.

It is reported that after the conclusion of the drama, Son Na-eun has been receiving numerous offers from the industry. Following a period of recharging during the reward vacation, she plans to carefully review her next project.

Meanwhile, "Manager Kim" is a revenge action drama about an ordinary father who becomes the world's most dangerous man to fight for his only daughter.

According to ratings survey company Nielsen Korea based on national households, the drama achieved a final viewership rating of 23%, concluding with great success. It broke through the 20th% viewership mark within four episodes and recorded its highest-ever rating of 23.1% in the eighth episode, ranking second among all SBS Saturday-Sunday dramas in history.

"Manager Kim," which concluded after 10 episodes on the 25th, is scheduled to meet viewers again through special broadcasts over two days on the 31st of this month and August 1st. Production of a second season is also being positively discussed.
