The new drama “Graduation” starring Jung Ryeo-won and Wi Ha-joon will be available for exclusive unlimited viewing as a U-NEXT original for the first time in Japan.

The new Saturday and Sunday drama “Graduation” presented by tvN is a sweet secret teacher-pupil romance between a veteran female cram school instructor and her former student who has become a new instructor. This is a new work by director Ahn Pan-seok, who has skillfully depicted romances between younger men and older women, such as “A beautiful lady who often buys me meals” and “Secret meetings”, so expectations are high for an adult love story. There is.

Jung Ryeo-won, who has shown off her charm and solid acting skills in numerous romantic comedies such as “Greedy Romance” and “Witch’s Court,” appears to be in a relaxed mood as she plays a veteran cram school teacher who has been working for 14 years. However, it realistically depicts a woman with many worries. In addition, Wi Ha-joon, who has shown off the charm of a tough man in “Bad and Crazy” and “18 Again,” will play the role of a sweet and gentle new teacher who is a former student, allowing her new charm to bloom.

When Seo Hye-jin (Jung Ryeo-won), a cram school teacher who has been working at the cram school for 14 years, is worried about her life, her former student Lee Jun-ho (Wi Ha-joon) shows up as a new teacher for the first time in 10 years. Attention will be focused on what kind of love will develop between Jun-ho, who has changed from a child to an adult, and returned to the cram school in the same position as Hye-jin, and his teacher Hye-jin.

U-NEXT will start exclusive unlimited viewing from 23:20 on Saturday, May 11, 2024, the same day as the Korean broadcast.
