Attorneys Lee Jong-suk, Moon Ga-young, Kang Yoo-seok, Ryu Hye-young, and Lim Sung-jae fill ‘Seocho-dong’ with their various personalities.

The character teaser video(https ? si =HW2fJ3btcyCYS4c8)for tvN new weekend drama ‘Seocho-dong’, which will be youtu for the first time on the 5th, is raising expectations for the cheerful tiki-taka of salaryman lawyers who are at the max level in everything from their abilities to their appetites.

The released teaser video sequentially captures the characteristics of the five associate lawyers(lawyers employed by law firms and receiving a salary)who go to work at the Hyungmin Building in Seocho-dong’s Law Town.Among the associate lawyers who frequently change jobs and open their own practices, An Joo-hyung(Lee Jong-suk), who has maintained the life of a salaried lawyer for 9 years, shows an indifferent reaction, as if he has completely adapted to his current situation, saying, “I feel the most comfortable just doing what I’m told.”

On the other hand, Kang Hee-ji(Moon Ga-young), who has just become an associate attorney and is now at work in Seocho-dong, shows off her social skills by talking to associate attorneys including Ahn Joo-hyung and people passing by without hesitation.Jo Chang-won(Kang Yoo-seok), the energizer who is the only one who is cheerful even when everyone else is exhausted on their way to work, boasts an incredible ability to talk despite the many persecutions from his dinner friends.

Bae Moon-jung(Ryu Hye-young), a professional latecomer who runs around with her eyebrows fluttering every morning, relieves stress from work life and losing lawsuits by eating with the Avengers(Avengers + lawyers).Ha Sang-gi(Im Sung-jae), a lawyer who treats work-related fatigue with bonuses, shows off his signature capitalist smile in front of his clients and exudes the aura of a top-level social worker.

The five members of ‘Abyeonjus’ boast a hexagonal spec that is full of abilities, friendliness, energy, appetite, and social life, and they gather together whenever it’s mealtime to share food and affection.As An Ju-hyung says, “Are we coworkers?” , the relationship between these people, who seem a little closer than coworkers, is intriguing.

In this way, ‘Seocho-dong’ is foreshadowing the cheerful Seocho-dong life of ‘Abyeonjeos’ who are busy bickering when they meet, but are sincere when it comes to taking care of each other’s meals.As the phrase ‘Forget the lawyers you’ve known so far! ‘suggests, the first episode of’ Seocho-dong ‘is anticipated to see what will happen in the daily lives of salaried lawyers who live their own lives faithfully, rather than heroes who are dedicated to implementing a sense of mission and justice.

‘ Seocho-dong’, which depicts the joys and sorrows of growing up as a group of five lawyers who commute to Seocho-dong Law Town every day, will be first aired on July 5th.
