Strong Girl Nam-soon” is a spin-off of the hit Korean drama “Strong Girl Bong-soon.” Nam-soon is a distant relative of Bong-soon, so she is neither an ancestor nor a descendant of the Strong Girl from the first series. For those who wish to see Bong-soon return, she might make a cameo.
However, for those curious about the first series, it is still available for streaming on Netflix. Since “Strong Girl Nam-soon” is a Netflix original, the streaming service chose the familiar actress Lee Yoo-mi, who has previously appeared in both “Squid Game” and “All of Us Are Dead.”
Lee Yoo-mi assumed her career-defining role when she portrayed Ji Yeong in “Squid Game.” Her character’s demise, although heart-wrenching, marked one of the series’ pivotal moments, catapulting her to international acclaim due to the character’s endearing nature. In “All of Us Are Dead,” she adeptly showcased her versatility by embodying the villainous Lee Na-yeon. Transitioning from a character audiences rooted for in one series to a character they wished to see meet her demise in a horror-zombie context, she demonstrated her acting range.Following her success in supporting roles, Netflix conferred upon her the lead role in “Strong Girl Nam-soon.”

In this series, she portrayed Gang Nam-soon, a Mongolian girl who made a startling discovery, her separation from her birth parents and her Korean heritage. With the guidance of her nomadic, adopted Mongolian parents, she embarked on a journey to master the Korean language and reconnect with her roots in Korea.
She has no idea that she is the missing daughter of Hwang Geum-Ju, one of the richest people in South Korea. She is a distant relative of Bong Soon, but she never used her powers to be a superhero or for personal gain. Instead, she utilized her intellect and business acumen to amass wealth. Her powers were likely reserved for self-defense and protecting her loved ones. Geum-Ju divorced her husband when he lost their daughter during a vacation trip in Mongolia. Each year, she hosted a contest for the strongest Asian-descent woman, hoping to locate her missing daughter. Unexpectedly, an imposter emerged as the winner of the competition. Will Nam-Soon ever reunite with her parents now that an imposter has assumed her identity? “Strong Girl Nam-Soon” is now available on Netflix
