Actress Lee Jae-ryong's wife and actress Yoo Ho-jung directly revealed the reason why her work break was inevitably prolonged.

On the afternoon of the 28th, a production presentation for KBS 2TV's new weekend drama "I Prescribe Love" was held at The Saint in Sindorim-dong, Guro-gu, Seoul. Director Han Joon-seo and actors Jin Se-yeon, Park Ki-woong, Kim Seung-soo, Yoo Ho-jung, Kim Hyung-mook and So Yi-hyun attended.

"Prescribing Love" is a family makeup drama in which two families, who have been entangled in bad relationships for 30 years, resolve misunderstandings and heal each other's wounds, and eventually reborn as one family.

In particular, Yoo Ho-jung made a comeback to the small screen after 11 years with this work, drawing viewers' delight. The last drama he appeared in was SBS drama 'I Heard Through Rumors' in 2015.

He played the role of Han Sung-mi, a specialist in mental health medicine, in this "I Prescribe Love." Han Sung-mi is the mother of Gongju-ah (Jin Se-yeon) and the wife of Gong Jeong-han (Kim Seung-soo), the representative of Gong Myung-daehan.

When asked why she chose "I'll prescribe you love" as her return work, Yoo Ho-jung said, "I had a lot of worries."

He said, "I wanted to shoot the drama 'I Heard It Through a Rumour' and spend time with the children personally. "I was away from the entertainment industry for a while because I wanted to fully play the role of a mother until my children entered college," he said honestly.

Yoo Ho-jung said, "I was very nervous to come back and do my work. I wondered if I could do it, and I didn't have confidence. I had a lot of thoughts that I couldn't do it, but I really liked the work of Prescribing Love. It's been a long time since I've been acting, but I thought it was a very familiar drama," he said.

Yoo Ho-jeong married Lee Jae-ryong, five years older, in 1995. She held her first son in 2002 and her second daughter in 2005.

Yoo Ho-jung gave birth to her first child after seven years of marriage after two miscarriages, she said on SBS's "My Ugly Baby" in 2018. I was depressed and had a hard time thinking that I might not be able to give birth to a baby for the rest of my life. So, in the early stages of pregnancy, I only lay down," he said, revealing his desperate maternal love.

Meanwhile, the first episode of "Prescribing Love" will air at 8 p.m. on the 31st.
