New K-dramas are going to be released next month, and you have to be ready because the feels would be very much overwhelming!
High Class
Dramas about the high society has always impressed so many people, even in Korea. Dramas like Sky Castle, The World of Married, Mine, and the cult favorite Penthouse have unraveled the public's thirst to see how people in the upper classes live their normal lives.
Cho Yeo-jong of Parasite fame will lead the cast of this another high society drama, as a former lawyer who loses everything she has when she got framed for her husband's murder. Sporting a fierce pixie cut, she and the other women would try to hover around a former athlete who is now teaching in their children's school. Looks like this drama will be fierce, feisty, and fiery for all the right reasons.
You can watch this on tvN on September 6 at 10:30PM.
Hometown Cha-cha-cha
