‘Undercover High School’ has caught attention by revealing three second posters that well reveal character traits that stimulate the desire to watch the original episode.

MBC‘s new Friday-Saturday drama ‘Undercover High School’ (planned by Nam Goong Sung-woo/written by Lim Young-bin/directed by Choi Jung-in/produced by Neo Entertainment, Slingshot Studio), which is scheduled to premiere on February 21st (Friday) at 9:50 PM, is a drama that contains the adventures of a National Intelligence Service agent who goes undercover as a high school student in order to track down the whereabouts of Emperor Gojong’s missing gold bars.

The released second posters contain unique looks that give a glimpse into the character traits of Seo Kang-joon (as Jung Hae-sung), Jin Ki-joo (as Oh Soo-ah), and Kim Shin-rok (as Seo Myung-joo). Each of them exudes an aura that cannot be approached in their own places, showing off a strong presence.



First, Seo Kang-joon‘s appearance passing by the students catches the eye. The phrase, ‘I’m Jung Hae-sung. I‘m the new transfer student this time’ makes us wonder what he will do when he enters the school. As he is given a mission, he encounters unexpected things as he gets entangled with not only the students but also the teachers in the process.

Jin Ki-joo says with a faint smile, ‘Nice to meet you. I’m your homeroom teacher, Oh Soo-ah’. Oh Soo-ah, a temporary teacher, is proud that no one can beat her in her love for children, and she passionately approaches school life. However, even to him, who is always bright and positive, there is a wound in her heart that she cannot tell others.

Kim Shin-rok‘s intense moment also steals the spotlight. With the copy, ‘Let’s take a look at how they play’, we can feel his charisma and authority as he looks down from above with a poisonous gaze. The tension rises as we wonder what exactly happens in this school where nothing goes well and what kind of waves his sharp gaze will create as he watches it.

In this way, Seo Kang-joon, Jin Ki-joo, and Kim Shin-rok continue their school life with their own complicated stories. Expectations are high for the various intertwining stories of the three people that will pique the interest of viewers and what kind of activities they will display.

The production team of ‘Undercover High School’ said, “The second poster contained Hae-sung standing in front of the school, Soo-ah, a member of the school, and Myeong-joo who reigns over the school. All three are in the same space, Byeongmun High School, but I focused on the fact that they are in different positions and have different meanings,” he said. “Haesung was portrayed with a high angle as if someone was watching him, Suah was portrayed with an eye-level perspective from the students’ perspective, and Myeongju was portrayed with a low angle as she looks down on everyone.”

‘Undercover High School’ will premiere on Friday, February 21 at 9:50 p.m.
