Netflix confirmed the production of 'Hairaki' and revealed its attractive cast. 'Hairaki' is a Netflix series that tells the story of a crack in their once solid world after a transfer student with a secret enters a state high school where the top 0.01% reign as order and law. Founded by Jusin Group, Korea's top conglomerate, Jusin High School is a place where children who were selected from the moment they were born gather together. An exciting story of love, friendship, revenge, and compassion among eighteen young people unfolds at Jushin High School, which prides itself on being a prestigious private school of a different class.
The fresh casting lineup that will bring life to characters with distinct personalities and stories is also worth noting. The role of Jeong Jae-i, the eldest daughter of Jaeyul Group, which has a rivalry with Jushin Group, and the queen of Jushin High School queens, has a variety of performances in dramas such as the dramas 'That Year We Were' and '18 Again', and the movies 'I Want to See Your Parents' Faces' and 'The Day I Died'. Actor Noh Jeong-eui, who is expanding his spectrum, will take on the role. Kang Ha, a transfer student at Joo Joo High School, is a person who keeps a secret behind his bright smile, and is played by Lee Chae-min, who left a deep impression in the dramas 'One Hit Scandal' and '493km to You'. Kim Jae-won, who has proven his presence in the dramas 'Stealer: Seven Joseon Notices' and 'Our Blues', plays the role of Kim Rian, the number one high school student and successor to the Jusin Group. He is the youngest daughter of International Yoon, a leading domestic trading company. Ji Won Ji, who showed off her impactful acting in the Netflix series ‘Annarasumanara’ and the drama ‘Accidentally Encountered You’, plays the role of Yoon Hera, the embodiment of jealousy. The role of Lee Woo-jin, who is the second son of a family that has produced politicians for generations and has both visuals and kindness, will be played by Lee Won-jeong, who has shown stable acting skills through the drama 'You I Met by Chance'.
'Hairaki' is the first series directed by director Bae Hyun-jin, who participated in co-directing the dramas 'Illusion: Light and Shadow', 'Big Mouth', and 'Startup', and the script is based on the drama 'The Moment You Want to Stop: About', which increases immersion with fresh fantasy material. Time's writer Choo Hye-mi will be in charge of production, and Studio Dragon, which has many hit works, will be in charge of production.
'Hairaki', which is raising expectations with its unrivaled story and dazzling chemistry between next-generation young actors, will be released only on Netflix.
