Netflix has confirmed the production of a new series, ‘Lady Dua’, drawing attention.

Netflix has confirmed the production of a new series, ‘Lady Dua’, and revealed the casting lineup including Shin Hye-sun and Lee Joon-hyuk. The Netflix series ‘Lady Dua’ is the story of ‘Sarah Kim’, a woman who wants to become a luxury item even if it is fake, and ‘Moo-kyung’, a man who pursues her desire.

Shin Hye-sun, who has shown her solid acting skills in the dramas ‘Secret Forest’, ‘My Golden Life’, ‘Welcome to Samdal-li’, ‘To My Harry’, and the movies ‘Innocence’, ‘Target’, ‘She Died’, will appear in the Netflix series ‘Lady Dua’ and leave a strong impact. ‘Sarah Kim’, played by Shin Hye-sun, is the Asia branch manager of a high-end brand. She is a mysterious figure whose name can be heard everywhere, but ironically, she is not easily seen anywhere. In the world of the most glittering upper class, ‘Sarah Kim’ was suddenly identified as the victim of an unidentified murder case. What is the story behind her and what her hidden identity is, will be excitingly portrayed through Shin Hye-sun‘s passionate acting. Lee Joon-hyuk, who has built unique characters in the dramas ‘My Perfect Secretary’, the ‘Secret Forest’ series, and ‘Good or Bad Dong-jae’, and boasts a wide spectrum of acting that goes back and forth between good and evil in the dramas ‘Designated Survivor: 60 Days’, ‘365: A Year of Defying Fate’, ‘Vigilante’, the ‘Along with the Gods’ series, and ‘The Outlaws 3’, leads the development of the drama by taking on the role of ‘Mu-kyung’, a violent crimes detective who doggedly digs into cases with a sharp eye. As ‘Mu-gyeong’ takes a step forward, the mysterious identity of ‘Sarah Kim’, who has a different name, age, job, and background, is gradually revealed.

Meanwhile, ‘Lady Dua’ is drawing attention as the new work of director Kim Jin-min, who has received favorable reviews for his solid directing, from the Netflix series ‘Human Class’ to ‘My Name’. Here, veteran production staff such as cinematographer Joo Sung-rim, who delicately yet dynamically captures the psychological changes of characters in Netflix series ‘The School Nurse Files’, ‘Mask Girl’, and the movie ‘The Outlaws’, and editing director Nam Na-young and costume director Cho Sang-kyung from Netflix series ‘Squid Game’, have all been gathered, raising expectations.

‘Lady Dua’, which is raising expectations by revealing an attractive casting lineup along with the confirmation of production, will be released only on Netflix.
