Ready to dive into a unique drama with a stellar cast and an intriguing storyline? Netflix has announced that The Trunk, a highly anticipated K-drama, will premiere on November 29. With the recent teaser release, excitement is mounting as fans eagerly await more details about this intense and mysterious story.
The Trunk is based on a novel and brings a fresh concept to the screen: a secret marriage service run by an organization called NM (New Marriage), which arranges unions based on specific contracts.
The plot follows Noh In Ji (played by Seo Hyun Jin), a vice-head of NM who lives a solitary life but takes on a new contract marriage each year. Her routine takes a surprising turn when she meets Han Jeong Won (played by Gong Yoo), a renowned music producer who joins NM’s marriage program as a way to move on from his previous relationship.
Mystery deepens when an enigmatic trunk is found submerged in a lake, revealing startling secrets about NM and the nature of contract marriages. This story pushes viewers to wonder how far the characters are willing to go in pursuit of love, happiness, and self-discovery.
The star-studded cast is one of The Trunk key attractions.
Seo Hyun Jin (known for Another Miss Oh!) plays Noh In Ji, a resolute woman who chooses to stay single despite her role at a marriage agency. Her cool, introspective demeanor hides a complex personal history.
On the other hand, Gong Yoo (widely known for Goblin) steps into the role of Han Jeong Won, a man ready to try contract marriage after the end of his first marriage.
Directed by Kim Gyu Tae, celebrated for hits like Moon Lovers and Our Blues, and written by Park Eun Young, known for Hwarang, the drama brings together a talented team and a captivating storyline, promising yet another Netflix hit.
In the recently released teaser, we see the initial meeting between Noh In Ji and Han Jeong Won, with Jeong Won still uncertain about the mechanics of contract marriage. He asks her, “Do I call you my wife? Is that how this works?” – highlighting the initial awkwardness and tension in their relationship.
Another intriguing moment in the teaser shows Jeong Won interacting with his ex-wife, Lee Seo Yeon (played by Jung Yun Ha), whose presence only complicates things further. In one scene, she tells Jeong Won, “Congratulations on your marriage, darling,” and offers In Ji a cryptic piece of advice: “Please, be happy. I may be punishing Jeong Won, but I’m also giving him a break.”
The drama is set to launch exclusively on Netflix on November 29. For fans of series that explore complex themes like relationships, secrets, and personal growth, The Trunk promises to be a must-watch.
