Lee Dong Wook was a divorced man for the third time ‘Shocking’, money and soul were completely taken away… (Divorce Insurance)
Lee Dong-wook, Lee Joo-bin, Lee Kwang-soo, and Lee Da-hee are heading to the small screen.
The production team of tvN‘s new Monday-Tuesday drama ‘Divorce Insurance’ (directed by Lee Won-seok and Choi Bo-kyung, written by Lee Tae-yoon) released the refreshing ‘Life Assurance’ teaser on the 24th.
‘Divorce Insurance’ is a pure insurance-type office romantic comedy that takes place when the best brains gather at the innovation product development team of an insurance company to introduce a divorce insurance product to deal with divorce, the hottest disaster of this era. Through the process of creating divorce insurance that guarantees life after the potential disaster of divorce and the unexpected breakup, it humorously unfolds the realistic and relatable growth story of adults trying to live ‘their own way’.
The teaser video for Life Guarantee released by the production team stimulates curiosity about a divorce insurance product that has never existed before. Plus Insurance’s Noh Ki-jun (played by Lee Dong-wook) looks back on the numerous types of insurance that exist in the world. The insurance he ambitiously comes up with is not feng shui insurance, earthquake disaster insurance, fire insurance, or car insurance, but ‘Divorce’. Following the narration, “Divorce insurance that guarantees your happiness,” the appearances of Noh Ki-jun, Kang Han-deul (played by Lee Joo-bin), An Jeong-man (played by Lee Kwang-soo), and Jeon Na-rae (played by Lee Da-hee) raise expectations for the life insurance that the Divorce Insurance team will present to those preparing for their second life, a product like no one has ever seen before.
Lee Dong-wook plays Noh Ki-jun, an insurance actuary on the innovation product development team of Plus Insurance who seems like a perfect man with both qualifications and expertise, but has gone through three divorces. He is a man of conviction who proudly reveals his divorce history even in the face of prejudice, despite having lost both his wallet and soul after three marriages and three divorces. In an era where divorce rates are skyrocketing, he decides to develop a divorce insurance product with the idea that divorce is an unexpected disaster in life.
Lee Joo-bin plays the role of ‘Kang-handeul’, an underwriter (insurance contract review job) at an insurance company who was reborn through divorce. Kang-handeul, who has lived for a long time thinking that patience is the answer, decides to become a completely different person after divorce, and is a capable underwriter who joins Noh Ki-joon‘s divorce insurance development team equipped with ‘Bbang-ddol (Bbang-gut Dorai)’. He gains the courage to take a step forward in the world while working on the development team and draws a new type of relationship with Noh Ki-joon.
Lee Kwang-soo plays ‘An Jeong-man’, a cautious and prudent safety-first person. As a risk surveyor who values safety and suggests accident prevention measures and efficient insurance programs, An Jeong-man joins Noh Ki-joon’s divorce insurance project and goes on the biggest adventure of his life. He pretends to be cool on the outside but is actually timid. He struggles with the divorce insurance development team members and reaches a turning point in his life.
Dahee Lee plays the role of Jeon Na-rae, a financial mathematician who only sees the world from an investment perspective. He cannot agree with the concept that marriage requires you to go all-in on one person, and because of differences in values, he gets divorced right after returning from his honeymoon. Jeon Na-rae, who has no regrets about any of the choices and decisions she has made and is confident, begins to experience changes in her life little by little after joining Noh Ki-joon‘s divorce insurance team as a special advisory quant.
The production team said, “Lee Dong-wook, Lee Joo-bin, Lee Kwang-soo, and Lee Da-hee have formed a special team to prepare for divorce,” and “They will present a different kind of fun through the unexpected disasters in life, the process of putting a price on divorce, and the stories of various people they meet along the way.”
‘Divorce Insurance’ will first air on March 31st at 8:50 PM.
