Park Shin-hye, Go Kyung-pyo, Ha Yoon-kyung, and Jo Han-gyeol will star in the new tvN drama ‘Miss Undercover Boss’ (working title, directed by Park Seon-ho, written by Moon Hyun-kyung).

‘Miss Undercover Boss’ is a retro office comedy that depicts the hilarious events that unfold when Sammo Hung, a 30-something elite financial supervisor who only knows work in the 1990s, goes undercover as a 20-year-old high school graduate employee at a securities firm where a suspicious flow of funds has been detected.It is a work that is the result of Director Park Seon-ho, who directed ‘Suspicious Partner’, ‘Wok of Love’, ‘Matchmaking’, and ‘Drunken Romance’, and Writer Moon Hyun-kyung, who wrote the drama ‘Into the Ring’.

Park Shin-hye will transform her acting by playing the role of Sammo Hung, who goes from an elite supervisor at the Financial Supervisory Service to a high school graduate rookie at a securities firm overnight.Park Shin-hye will go back and forth between a cool-headed career woman who only knows work and a fresh new member of society, and comically unravel the chaotic incidents that occur in the Yeouido financial district.In particular, Park Shin-hye, who drew a hot response with her intense transformation in her previous work, “The Judge from Hell,” is drawing attention as to whether she will renew her life character once again through this work and whether she will display an unprecedented character spectrum.


Go Kyung-pyo plays Shin Jung-woo, the new CEO of Hanmin Securities, a natural-born management consultant and corporate raider who believes that only numbers are honest.He is known as the “unofficial cold-hearted man” in Yeouido who will not hesitate to use any means necessary to achieve his goals.He meets Hong Jang-mi, who has the face of Sammo Hung(played by Park Shin-hye), a 20-year-old whom he once loved, and their relationship becomes complicated.Having shown stable acting skills and unique charm in “The Truth Beneath” and “Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday,” Go Kyung-pyo plans to solidify the center of the drama by deeply unraveling the intense story set in the financial world through this production.

Ha Yoon-kyung plays the role of Ko Bok-hee, the secretary to the president of Hanmin Securities and the eldest sister of room 301 of the dormitory where Geum-bo, who got a fake job, lives.Bok-hee is a character who confidently wears flashy clothes and strides around the colorless Yeouido.She is a cute tsundere character who survived in the secretary’s office with her own winning strategy.Ha Yoon-kyung, who has shown dazzling performances in various works such as ‘Please Take Care of Me in This Life Too’ and ‘Strange Lawyer Woo Young-woo’, is drawing attention to what new side of her she will show.

Jo Han-gyeol gives a passionate performance as Albert Oh, the grandson of the chairman of Orange Tribe Hanmin Securities and a cinephile who crash-lands in Yeouido on a golden parachute.He has no interest in management, but he creates trouble at the company and receives new stimulation from Geum-bo, an old rookie employee who has been impressive since their first meeting.Jo Han-gyeol, who recently left a deep impression in the drama ‘Return to the Palace’, is expected to make a strong impression on the small screen with the bubbly and charming character of Albert Oh.

The production team said, “We are very happy to be working with actors Park Shin-hye, Go Kyung-pyo, Ha Yoon-kyung, and Jo Han-gyeol, whom we trust and watch,” and added, “Please look forward to ‘Miss Undercover Boss,’ which will penetrate the hearts of viewers with a lighthearted and refreshing story set at the point where the chaos of the end of the century and today’s reality meet.”

‘Miss Undercover Boss’ is scheduled to premiere in the first half of 2026.
