Lee Yoo Ri has not appeared in a KBS drama since "Mom's Dead Upset" and that dramas was eight years ago. To make up for her absence from KBS she will play not one but two characters, a set of very different twins, in her upcoming KBS drama "Heaven's Promise."

"I'm happy to be in 'Heaven's Promise' and I look forward to it," Lee Yo Ri recently told the Korean media outlet TV Report.

In "Heaven's Promise" she will play twin sisters Lee Na Yeon and Baek Do Hee. The twins may look alike but their personalities are nothing alike. Lee Na Yeon is brave, loyal and sweet, while Baek Do Hee is arrogant and not very likable.

The drama will feature four generations of women who suffered through bad relationships. But it will focus on one whose life is ruined by a relationship.

It may be Lee's first KBS drama in eight years but she has kept busy. In 2011 she appeared as the character Hwang Geum Ran in the MBC drama "Twinkle Twinkle." She had a 2012 role in the drama "Yellow Boots" and appeared in the 2013 morning melodrama "Your Lady." In 2014 she played Yeon Min Jung in the weekend drama "Jang Bo Ri Is Here." It was a breakout role for her.

That year Lee won the Grand Prize at the MBC Drama Awards, gaining about 54 percent of the vote. She was also ranked in the top five of Gallup Korea's "Actor of the Year", reaching second place just behind Kim Soo Hyun.

In 2015 she appeared in "Super Daddy Yeol" with co-star Lee Dong Gun.

"Heaven's Promise" also stars Park Ha Na, who appeared in "Apgujeong Midnight Sun" and "Empress Ki," and Seo Joon Young, whose last drama was also "Super Daddy Yeol."

Heo In Moo wrote "Heaven's Promise" and Jeon Woo Sung will direct the drama. It will air in February.
