Lee Dong-wook, Lee Joo-bin, Lee Kwang-soo, and Lee Da-hee have teamed up for an office romantic comedy that‘s guaranteed to be fun.
tvN’s new Monday-Tuesday drama ‘Divorce Insurance’ (directed by Lee Won-seok and Choi Bo-kyung, written by Lee Tae-yoon) has confirmed its March 31 broadcast date and has released the ‘Divorce Preparation’ poster.
‘Divorce Insurance’ is a pure insurance-type office romantic comedy that takes place when the best brains gather at the innovative 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 for everyone and the unexpected breakup, it is expected to pleasantly unfold the realistic and relatable growth story of adults trying to live ‘their own way’. It is a work in which director Lee Won-seok of the movie ‘Killing Romance’ and writer Lee Tae-yoon of ‘The Inspector and Joy’ joined forces. Lee Dong-wook, Lee Joo-bin, Lee Kwang-soo, and Lee Da-hee appear.
In the meantime, the unveiled divorce preparation poster stimulates curiosity even more. There are many types of insurance in the world, from life insurance to car insurance and travel insurance, but divorce is also an unexpected disaster in life. The absurd imagination of Noh Ki-joon (played by Lee Dong-wook), who came up with a divorce insurance that guarantees happiness and supports a second life at a major turning point in life, and the phrase ‘You need to prepare for divorce, too’ make us curious about the story they will unfold.
Lee Dong-wook seems like a perfect man with both qualifications and expertise, but he undergoes a delightful transformation into ‘Noh Ki-joon’, an insurance actuary at Plus Insurance‘s innovative product development team who has experienced three divorces. He has lost both his wallet and soul due to three marriages and three divorces, but he is a man of conviction who proudly reveals his divorce history even amidst prejudice. 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 that was reborn through divorce. Kang-handeul, who has lived for a long time thinking that patience is the answer, is a person who vows to become a completely different person after divorce. Equipped with ‘Bbang-ddol (Bbang-gut-dorae) beauty’, he joins Noh Ki-jun’s divorce insurance development team as a capable underwriter. 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-jun.
Lee Kwang-soo plays ‘An-jeong-man’, a cautious and prudent safety-first person. An-jeong-man, who has become a risk surveyor who suggests accident prevention measures and efficient insurance programs as befitting his personality that values safety, joins Noh Ki-jun‘s divorce insurance project and goes on the biggest adventure of his life. He appears 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 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, “The colorful stories, and the process of quantifying everything related to divorce and putting a price on it will stimulate empathy with reality while having fun,” and added, “Please look forward to the perfect tiki-taka of the trustworthy actors such as Lee Dong-wook, Lee Joo-bin, Lee Kwang-soo, and Lee Da-hee.”
‘Divorce Insurance’ will first air on March 31st at 8:50 PM.
