It's no mystery that we all love Gong Yoo and any project that has him in it. So we're pretty hyped up as Netflix announces his return in an upcoming mystery series, The Trunk.
Alongside Gong Yoo, A-list actress Seo Hyun-jin, known for her transformative performances in Another Miss Oh and The Beauty Inside, will play the lead female role as In-ji, an employee of an intriguing matchmaking organization, NM.
Gong Yoo, celebrated for his roles in Guardian: The Lonely and Great God and Train to Busan, and Netflix's Squid Game & The Silent Sea, is set to depict Jeong-won, a solitary music producer who finds himself in an unexpected marriage contract with In-ji.
Jeong-won ironically encounters his “second wife” In-ji through a contract-based marriage service arranged by his ex-wife Seo-yeon. However, their lives take a twist when a mysterious trunk found in the lake throws them into a whirlwind of secrets and events behind the matchmaking service.
Penned by Park Eun-young of Hwarang: The Poet Warrior Youth and directed by Kim Gyu-tae, famed for his work in Our Blues, The Trunk is set to attract attention for its unique storyline and the dream pairing of Seo Hyun-jin and Gong Yoo.
Watch out for The Trunk as it will premiere exclusively on Netflix.
