K-Drama Like Flowers in Sand photos: Jang Dong-Yoon likely to announce retirement
Jang Dong-Yoon’s K-Drama Like Flowers in Sand is about his character Baek-Doo. He is the youngest son of a prestigious Ssireum family and a member of the Ssireum wrestling team.
The latest photos show Baek-Doo getting drunk. The first picture features the start of his drinking saga with his friends. He looks annoyed and stressed while consuming alcohol. The next two photos indicate that he gets provoked after one of his friends pulls his legs.
The fourth image shows him drunkenly dialing someone and likely announcing his retirement, according to the photo caption. The next picture includes him in a sober state, while the final one features the person he drunk-dialed.
The first Like Flowers in Sand trailer includes the drunken mistake scene. In it, Jang Dong-Yoon tells someone in a high-pitched voice, “I’ll retire! If I don’t earn the ‘Jangsa’ title again this time, I’ll retire.”
The video further shows Lee Joo-Myoung’s Oh Yoo-Kyung re-enter his life. Their growing closeness influences Baek-Doo to not retire.
