Little Women cast and characters
tvN's K-drama Little Women is a modern take on Louisa May Alcott's novel of the same name with a thriller twist. Like the March sisters, the Oh sisters also live in poverty. However, the twist in their story is the 70 billion won that the older sister's friend leaves her. This brings many challenges in their lives, putting them against each other and then bringing them together, as they fought with Park Jae-sang and his family.
Here's a list of the cast and characters of Little Women:
1) Kim Go-eun as Oh In-joo
Kim Go-eun's character, Oh In-joo, is the oldest of the three sisters in Little Women. She is depicted as a naive character who gave up her education to raise her younger sisters after their parents left. While she dreamt of living a normal life out of poverty, she got entangled in a complicated situation after receiving an amount of 70 billion won from her deceased friend, Hwa-young. The danger escalates when she decides to keep the money, resulting in the involvement of Jae-sang's family, who make her life a living hell.
Go-eun is among the most celebrated actresses of South Korea, with spectacular performances in both films and K-dramas. She came into prominence after playing the character of Eun-tak in Guardian: The Lonely and Great God.

Nam Ji-hyun plays the middle sister in the K-drama. She is described as the courageous one among the sisters and works as a journalist. However, she is also an alcoholic, due to which her job is always at risk. In-kyung's only motive was to bring justice to the victims, due to which she also ends up in a conflict with her sister when she decides to keep the money. But ultimately helps her in bringing down Jae-sang and his wife and their dubious activities.
The 30-year-old actress became a fan-favorite after her role opposite Ji Chang-wook in Suspicious Partner. She has also been a part of K-dramas such as Queen Seondeok and Good Partner.
3) Wi Ha-joon as Choi Do-il
Wi Ha-joon's character, Choi Do-il, is also among the crucial characters in Little Women who drive the narrative, and also In-joo's life. Initially, he is introduced as Hwa-young's acquaintance who worked for Jae-sang's family. While it looked like he was only interested in money, he became a great help to In-joo in surviving Jae-sang and his wife.
Another prominent actor in the Korean industry, Ha-joon, is known for his roles in acclaimed K-dramas such as Squid Game, The Worst of Evil, Gyeongseong Creature, and Bad and Crazy, among others.
