Uhm Jung-hwa and Koo Hye-sun are each other’s muse in the newly launched TV series, “You’re Too Much.”

In the 50-episode project series, Uhm plays the nation’s iconic diva Yoo Jina, who, in her zeal to excel in career, shirked away her ties with family.

Koo plays the contrary Jung Haedang, who discards her dreams to sing cabaret in order to support her family. Jung closely emulates Yoo Jina’s singing on stage.
