‘Catch the Big Fortune’ is the epitome of a cheerful and touching family drama.

The new KBS 1TV daily drama ‘Catch the Big Fortune’ (written by Son Ji-hye / directed by Park Man-young, Lee Hae-woo), which will be aired for the first time on Monday the 14th at 8:30 PM, is a drama that depicts the turbulent and heartbreaking growth period of three friends, one rich, one poor, and one who wants to be rich, and their families.

In the drama, Son Chang-min, Sunwoo Jae-deok, and Park Sang-myun play the roles of Han Moo-chul, Kim Dae-sik, and Choi Gyu-tae, who have been called the Three Musketeers since childhood and are very loyal. Lee Ah-hyun, Oh Young-sil, and Ahn Yeon-hong play the female members of the Three Musketeers: Lee Mi-ja, Lee Hye-sook, and Hwang Geum-ok. Childhood friends Son Chang-min, Sunwoo Jae-deok, and Park Sang-myeon, who used to share even a single loaf of bread together, have become adults and find themselves in a building owner and tenant relationship. The delightful story of the three musketeers who became A and B and the exciting story of a family reaching a turning point in their lives will bring laughter and emotion.

Amidst the buzz of being a highly anticipated drama that will continue the success of KBS 1TV daily dramas, writer Son Ji-hye, who wrote ‘Catch the Big Fortune’, has revealed some key points to watch ahead of the first broadcast.

First, writer Son Ji-hye said about what prompted her to write, “I wanted to write a daily drama that was different from the others. “I was tired of the common stories of secret birth, infidelity, and conglomerates, so I thought of a fun story and the idea of three middle-aged male friends came to mind,” he said.

Writer Son started the story by asking, “What if the relationships of three friends who live as A and B under the pretext of being friends were overturned? What if money was at the center of it all?” He added, “I wanted to tell a story about how love, friendship, and family affection change because of money.”

Writer Son, who wanted to tell a story about parents and children understanding each other through ‘Catch the Big Luck,’ confessed, “I wanted to convey the message that when money suddenly appears or disappears, you ask yourself what true ‘big luck’ is for you, and that the answer is the precious people next to you.”

He also said about the reason he made ‘money’ the main keyword of the drama, “Everyone wants money, but not everyone can have it, so you want to turn away from it, but in the end, you can‘t. “Because it is an eternal and inseparable topic as long as humans exist,” he answered.

On the other hand, regarding the unique difference of ‘Catch the Grand Fortune’, he said, “As you may have noticed from the previously released poster, ‘Catch the Grand Fortune’ features middle-aged actors, not young friends, as the main characters. The stories of middle-aged people, who usually appear only as someone’s father or mother, form the center of the play. “I want to show that middle-aged friendship and love can be this beautiful through their past and present, where they were the main characters who shined brighter than anyone else,” he said.

Lastly, writer Son said, “I hope you watch the dramatic transformation of K-Scrooge Moo-cheol (played by Son Chang-min) who has been through many incidents, how his friends’ relationships change due to the money he suddenly has, and how the characters change depending on where they place their value on money,” introducing the points to watch.

KBS 1TV’s new daily drama ‘Catch the Big Fortune’ is scheduled to premiere on the 14th (Mon) at 8:30 PM as the follow-up to ‘Let’s Get Married, Frog!’.
