tvN’s upcoming drama “Shin’s Project” has unveiled a new teaser! “Shin’s Project” is a comedy series that follows the story of Mr. Shin, a man who takes it upon himself to mediate conflicts and assist people through seemingly unwinnable situations. Han Suk Kyu stars as Mr. Shin, a former legendary negotiator who now runs a modest chicken restaurant. He willingly rushes into every conflict, settles problems, and delivers justice as a neighborhood hero. The newly released teaser opens with the chaotic scene of a bustling marketplace, crowded with people each carrying their own troubles. Amid flying objects, intense scuffles, and heated arguments, frustration and anger are written all over people’s faces. Over the chaos, Mr. Shin’s narration asks, “How did our society get so quick to anger?” Just as the situation threatens to spiral out of control under a storm of insults and aggression, Mr. Shin appears. Wearing a white shirt and an apron that reads, “Mr. Shin to the rescue,” he proposes with a wide smile, “Let’s talk it out, with words,” signaling his method of negotiation. In an era where expressing oneself often outweighs listening to others, viewers are left curious about how Mr. Shin’s focus on dialogue will deliver refreshing, satisfying solutions. As the teaser’s tagline declares, “Troublesome problem? Mr. Shin will solve it,” anticipation builds for the ways he will cool down a world boiling over with anger. Watch the teaser below: “Shin’s Project” is set to premiere on September 15 at 8:50 p.m. KST.
Watch: Angel And Debt Collector Ma Dong Seok Pays A Prison Visit To Collect What’s His In “Twelve” Premiere Teaser
The upcoming action hero series “Twelve” has dropped a sneak peek of its premiere episode! Inspired by the 12 zodiac animals of the East, “Twelve” tells the story of 12 angels living in the human world in human form to protect the Korean Peninsula from evil spirits. Long ago, the angels barely managed to seal the forces of evil in the gates of hell through their sacrifice, bringing peace. However, with the evil spirits awakening, chaos returns. The first-episode preview kicks off with Tae San (Ma Dong Seok), the formidable leader of the 12 Zodiac Angels, making a bold entrance in a tiger-print outfit as he pays a visit to a debtor in jail. Flashing a smile, he introduces himself: “I’m from Angel Capital.” In the human world, Tae San quietly runs Angel Capital, a company that lends money exclusively to wrongdoers—gangsters and criminals—and always collects, no matter what. Beneath his composed demeanor, however, lies the grief of having lost his comrades in past battles against evil. During the jailhouse meeting, he lays out the details of Jo Yang Soo’s (Shin Seung Hwan) debt. When Jo Yang Soo shamelessly tries to stall repayment, Tae San coolly responds, “In the past 100 years doing this job, I’ve never failed to collect my money once,” leaving the debtor confused. After exiting the room, Tae San immediately calls Jwi Dol (Sung Yoo Bin) and instructs, “Jwi Dol, send the money for Jo Yang Soo”—a cryptic order that leaves viewers questioning his true method of debt collection. Watch the teaser below: “Twelve” will premiere on August 23 at 9:20 p.m. KST.
Park Hee Soon Is The Smooth And Dependable Big Brother Figure Of Park Min Young’s Con Team In “Confidence Queen”
The upcoming drama “Confidence Queen” has unveiled new stills of Park Hee Soon in character! A Korean adaptation of the 2018 Japanese comedy drama “The Confidence Man JP,” “Confidence Queen” follows three con artists with extraordinary talents as they pull off elaborate scams targeting villains from all walks of life. Park Min Young stars as Yoon Yi Rang, a con artist with an IQ of 165 and a genius-level intellect in the top 1 percent. With her eccentric thinking and cold charisma, she leads the team in their intricate schemes. Park Hee Soon stars as James, the eldest member and big brother figure of the team. James balances the group with his smooth attitude, disarming humor, and quietly commanding presence—a character exuding timeless, classic charm. The new stills highlight James’s infinite charms as the “gentleman” of the team. In one still, James sports a hip, colorful outfit and neatly organizes stacks of cash on a table, flashing a bright smile that reflects his role as the group’s anchor. In another, holding a champagne glass with a soft gaze, James radiates effortless warmth in transparent horn-rimmed glasses and a perfectly fitting denim shirt. A different shot captures James in a sharp suit, staring out of a building window with a piercing look befitting a master strategist. Sharing why he chose “Confidence Queen,” Park Hee Soon explained, “I’ve been taking on a lot of heavy and serious roles lately, so I wanted to try something light and fun. I also had a strong thirst for change.” He continued, “I was drawn to the multifaceted charms of James. He’s a character with both wit and the ability to resolve situations. What really appealed to me was the chance to not only do comedy but also transform into a variety of personas through James. I was excited to bring him to life in the unique, fast-paced, and exhilarating atmosphere of ‘Confidence Queen.’” The actor also opened up about the challenges of portraying the role in detail: “With every new script that came out, I had to directly set the character analysis, acting style, costumes, and makeup for each of James’s different personas, which wasn’t easy. For the external aspects, I worked closely with the costume and makeup teams, gathering a lot of references and ideas to create each character. After that, I studied speech patterns, gestures, and even walking styles to fully complete the portrayals.” Finally, Park Hee Soon added a message for viewers: “‘Confidence Queen’ is a thrilling, game-like drama filled with unique characters. Every moment is packed with unexpected twists, balancing humor and suspense. I hope everyone will enjoy the ride together.” “Confidence Queen” is set to premiere on September 6 at 9:10 p.m. KST.
Jang Da Ah And Lee Min Jae’s Tender Past Comes Crashing Into The Present With Uhm Jung Hwa And Song Seung Heon In “My Troublesome Star”
ENA’s “My Troublesome Star” has shared a sneak peek at the dramatic reunion between Uhm Jung Hwa and Song Seung Heon! “My Troublesome Star” is a romantic comedy about Korea’s biggest star Im Se Ra (Jang Da Ah), who mysteriously vanishes and wakes up one day as Bong Cheong Ja (Uhm Jung Hwa), an ordinary middle-aged woman. Song Seung Heon will star as Dokgo Chul, a former detective who helps Bong Cheong Ja as she struggles to navigate life after losing 25 years in the blink of an eye. The newly released stills spotlight the sharp contrast between Bong Cheong Ja and Dokgo Chul’s past and present. In one scene, Bong Cheong Ja wakes up in a hospital, only to be rattled when nobody recognizes her. Meanwhile, Dokgo Chul’s bewildered look as he listens to her insist she is the “nation’s goddess” Im Se Ra adds to the intrigue. With her hands firmly on her hips, Bong Cheong Ja looks ready for battle, hinting at the pair’s extraordinary reunion. The stills also revisit their youthful past, brimming with a very different kind of tension. Im Se Ra (played by Jang Da Ah), once the youngest actress ever to win Best Actress, captivates with her radiant smile. In 1999, she dominated the nation with her unparalleled star power, but behind the spotlight was a hidden darkness that raises questions about her story. In one photo, she tearfully phones none other than rookie detective Dokgo Chul (Lee Min Jae). Although worlds apart—a national icon and a greenhorn cop—the reason for their entanglement remains shrouded in mystery. Another still captures Dokgo Chul gently tending to Im Se Ra’s wounds, while she gazes back at him intently, unable to look away. What secret lies behind her sudden disappearance of 25 years, and what chaotic comeback show will unfold when Bong Cheong Ja and Dokgo Chul cross paths again after decades? “My Troublesome Star” will premiere on August 18 at 10 p.m. KST and will be available on Viki.
Song Joong Ki, Chun Woo Hee, Lee Joo Myung, And Seo Ji Hoon Revisit First Love As Adults In “My Youth” Poster
JTBC’s upcoming Friday drama “My Youth” has unveiled a nostalgic new poster! “My Youth” is a romance drama that tells the story of Sunwoo Hae (Song Joong Ki), who begins to live an ordinary life later than most people, and Sung Je Yeon (Chun Woo Hee), who must disrupt her first love’s tranquility for her own success. The group poster builds excitement, recalling the characters’ pure, awkward 19-year-old days as dazzling and radiant because they filled each other’s unspoken voids by being one another’s first love. Sunwoo Hae, who spent his 20s working to make a living, now seems to have found peace as he smiles brightly, surrounded by flowers. Also drawing attention is his first love, Sung Je Yeon, whose presence brings a rush of excitement that threatens to break his calm. For Sung Je Yeon, time with Sunwoo Hae was a refuge from the colorless routine of being 19, when life followed strict rules and left no room to dream of escape. Now, reunited as adults, anticipation grows over what emotions their first love will revive, and what new side of Sunwoo Hae Je Yeon will capture through the camera. Mo Tae Rin (Lee Joo Myung), who rose to fame with Sunwoo Hae as the “nation’s siblings,” now shows a different side in her focus on a script, shaped by the experience of overcoming the struggles of being a child star. Her only comfort, the one that freed her from the pressure to perform flawlessly because she was so loved, was the voice that came through the school’s broadcast system. Tae Rin’s first love, who consoled her childhood, was Kim Seok Joo (Seo Ji Hoon). Seok Joo’s flawless appearance and warm smile add to the excitement. As he crosses paths again with Tae Rin—someone who becomes more intriguing and fascinating the more he gets to know her—curiosity grows over what thrilling changes she might bring to his orderly life. The production team of “My Youth” said, “The reunion of Sunwoo Hae, Sung Je Yeon, Mo Tae Rin, and Kim Seok Joo, who remember each other’s 19-year-old days, will evoke emotions that are cheerful yet heartfelt, sometimes warm, and sometimes bold.” “My Youth” is set to premiere on September 5 at 8:50 p.m. KST and will air two consecutive episodes every Friday. The drama will be available on Viki.

“My Girlfriend is the Man!” has shared new stills ahead of its upcoming episode! Based on the popular webtoon of the same name, “My Girlfriend is the Man!” is a romantic comedy about a college student whose girlfriend unexpectedly transforms into a man.
