‘Undercover High School’ Seo Kang-joon and Kim Shin-rok have a straight-up showdown.

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), which is scheduled to premiere on the 21st (Friday) at 9:50 PM, has released stills of Seo Kang-joon (as Jung Hae-sung) and Kim Shin-rok (as Seo Myung-joo), stimulating the curiosity of potential viewers.

Seo Kang-joon and Kim Shin-rok, who are completely immersed in their characters in the photos, have intense gazes while also feeling relaxed at one end. This is why the special combination of these two people with strong presences is anticipated.

Seo Kang-joon plays Jung Hae-sung, a National Intelligence Service agent who goes undercover as a high school student to find missing gold bars, and Kim Shin-rok plays Seo Myung-joo, the chairman of the school Hae-sung attends. At first, Haesung was just a transfer student, but as he started to get involved in big and small problems at school, such as grades and corruption, he became a thorn in Myungju’s side. As a result, Myungju gradually began to approach Haesung, and the two engaged in a fierce survival battle for their own purposes.

Not only that, but Myungju is said to be keeping a secret that even Haesung doesn‘t know. Anticipation is rising for the shocking story that will unfold between the two, wondering what secret will surprise Haesung and how Myungju will reveal it. Also, attention is focused on what kind of ripples the conflict between the National Intelligence Service agent and the chairman of a prestigious private high school will create in the drama.

The production team of ‘Undercover High School’ said, “Seo Kang-joon and Kim Shin-rok’s unique character digestion skills that will properly bring out the chemistry between the two characters and their unique acting transformations that will increase immersion will firmly hold the center of the drama. He said, “Please look forward to how the two people’s acting will come together and their chemistry that will properly bring out the antipathy moment.”

‘Undercover High School’ is a drama that contains the adventures of a National Intelligence Service agent who disguises himself as a high school student to track down the whereabouts of Emperor Gojong’s missing gold bars.

‘Undercover High School’ will air for the first time on Friday, the 21st at 9:50 PM.
