Taking place during the end of the Joseon dynasty, the series is about a royal inspector who works undercover. The historical comedy and detective series centers on Sung Yi-gyeom, the secret royal inspector played by Kim Myung-soo.

Although Sung Yi-gyeum topped the state examination, he lacks ambition and has a gambling addiction. When he is caught gambling one day, he is tasked to keep an eye on corrupt government officials as punishment. With the help of fellow inspectors Hong Da-in (Kwon Na-ra) and Park Chun-sam (Lee Yi-kyung), he starts the investigation.

KBS2 broadcasts Royal Secret Agent every Monday and Tuesday at 9:30 pm KST. It is also streaming on iQIYI.

KakaoTV’s romantic short series centers on young individuals searching for love and happiness within a chaotic city. Lovestruck in the City is KakaoTV’s first installment to their multi-part web shows. The showrunners decided to experiment and applied an interview-style or documentary format to the series.

Lovestruck in the City tells the story of six people who talk about love and relationships in response to questions from an interviewer. The series centers on Park Jae-won (Ji Chang-wook), an architect who falls for the person who stole his camera. Meanwhile, Lee Eun-oh (Kim Ji-won) is a marketer with an alter ego named Yoon Seon-a. When she meets Park Jae-won on a beach under her false identity, she develops a crush on him.

Netflix provides streaming of Lovestruck in the City for audiences worldwide. The series also airs every Tuesday and Friday at 5:00 pm KST on KakaoTV.

Sisyphus: The Myth

The upcoming action-mystery series, Sisyphus: The Myth, was labeled as “JTBC’s 10th Anniversary Special Drama.” The series stars Cho Seung-woo, who plays a genius engineer named Han Tae-sool. Park Shin-hye will join him as Kang Seo-hae, an elite warrior who acts as his savior throughout their journey.

“The drama simultaneously covers the story of the current time in 2020 and the future of South Korea, which has fallen into ruin,” said Cho. “As the unique script and art blended well together, I had high expectations for how the two time periods could be portrayed with great artistic sense.”

With 16 episodes, JTBC will premier Sisyphus: the Myth on February 17. It will air every Wednesday and Thursday at 9:00 pm KST, replacing the time slot previously occupied by Run On.
