Actors Kim Moo-yeol, Lee Sung-min, Jin Ki-joo, and Pyo Ji-hoon will star in the new Netflix series ‘True Education’.

‘True Education’ is a refreshing and exhilarating story about true education created by the Educational Rights Protection Agency to protect the educational environment in South Korea that has collapsed due to students, teachers, and parents who cross the line. Based on the setting of the original webtoon of the same name, this newly adapted and planned work boldly addresses realistic issues in education with a straightforward message that is both refreshing and relatable.

In the drama, Kim Moo-yeol plays the role of Na Hwa-jin, an inspector of the Educational Rights Protection Agency. He will solve various problems that occur at school in his own refreshing way, giving viewers refreshing fun and satisfaction.

Kim Moo-yeol said, “Everyone was very enthusiastic. Before talking about the difficult topic of education, I read the script together and realized once again that I am working with colleagues that I can trust and rely on, and I gained great strength from it. It is a start that makes me look forward to the story that we will create together.”

Minister of Education Choi Kang-seok, who founded the Educational Protection Agency, said, “I have high expectations because I was impressed by writer Lee Nam-gyu’s previous work. This is my second time working with director Hong Jong-chan, following ‘Juvenile Justice’, so I have confidence in working with him. More than anything, I am happy to be able to work with such great actors. I will work hard to come back with a good project.”

Jin Ki-joo will play the role of Lim Han-rim, a former special forces officer at the Educational Protection Agency, and Pyo Ji-hoon will play Bong Geun-dae, a genius officer at the Educational Protection Agency.

Jin Ki-joo said, “The script that has both feet firmly planted on the reality we are living in now was attractive. He said, “The fantasy of a ‘religious state’ added to that reality makes us think about what we need to worry about together,” and Pyo Ji-hoon said, “It‘s true that I feel pressure and nervous because it’s a work with a heavy message and a highly anticipated production team that has joined forces, but I will do my best to learn a lot on set and contribute to completing a good drama.”
