Watch: Rowoon, Shin Ye Eun, And Park Seo Ham Fight For Justice In A Corrupt Era In “The Murky Stream” Teaser
Disney+’s upcoming series “The Murky Stream” has announced its release date along with striking new posters and a teaser! Set in a lawless Joseon era where the once-clear Gyeong River has turned into a murky stream, “The Murky Stream” follows the turbulent fates of Si Yool (Rowoon), who hides his past and becomes a rogue, the wise and righteous Choi Eun (Shin Ye Eun), and Jeong Cheon (Park Seo Ham), who dreams of becoming an incorruptible official. The posters feature dramatic ink splatters representing both the rough currents of the Gyeong River (which flowed through the capital during the Joseon era, around the area of today’s Han River) and the corruption of those in power that have darkened the once-clear waters. At the center, the three determined youths stand resolutely, while the phrase “It’s your fault. You were born into a corrupt world” sparks curiosity about how they will carve out their destinies in such a harsh era. Notably, the poster’s logo was created by Chong Tae Chun, a renowned Korean folk singer and singer-songwriter, adding another layer of interest. The bold brushstrokes of the title hint at a story full of twists and unpredictable turns. The teaser plunges viewers into a chaotic Joseon, tilted and oppressed by the powerful, and follows the three youths as they pursue their own sense of justice. It opens with Si Yool delivering a chilling line: “Living is like a ferocious dream. There will be a price to pay.” The calm of the Gyeong River is shattered by the shadow of a looming invasion, accompanied by Jeong Cheon’s urgent warning: “Joseon is a land in decline. Everywhere reeks of rot.” Tension escalates as Choi Eun boldly cries: “This is outrageous!” She is met by the oppressors’ chilling retort: “Nothing is impossible for the powerful.” Undeterred, the three youths ready themselves for battle, sharpening their blades and declaring: “Let’s fight. In this weary world, dying would be a blessing.” “The Murky Stream” will premiere with three episodes on September 26, followed by two new episodes weekly, for a total of nine episodes.
Shin Eun Soo Rescues Transfer Student Gong Myoung In Their Fateful First Meeting In “Love Untangled”
Netflix’s upcoming film “Love Untangled” has released a new set of stills! Set in 1998 Busan, “Love Untangled” follows 19-year-old Park Se Ri (Shin Eun Soo), who sets out on a mission to fix her lifelong insecurity—her curly hair—before finally confessing her feelings to her crush. Along the way, she gets entangled with Han Yoon Seok (Gong Myoung), a transfer student from Seoul. The newly unveiled stills capture both the sparkling moments of youth and the indispensable figures who play key roles in Se Ri’s grand confession mission. Yoon Seok’s arrival in Busan leads to a fateful encounter when he accidentally falls into the sea—only to be saved by Se Ri, marking the beginning of their unforgettable connection. Another still shows Yoon Seok lost in thought while holding a comic book Se Ri introduced to him, while a playful shot of the two dressed as a pro golfer and caddie raises curiosity about where their relationship is headed. Meanwhile, the school’s heartthrob Kim Hyun (Cha Woo Min) radiates star power even in stills alone. Known as the school’s most popular boy, he has it all—good looks, athletic talent, and irresistible charm. A photo of him holding a glass jar filled with origami cranes hints at his immense popularity. Adding more fun is the scene-stealing Seong Rae (Yoon Sang Hyun), a chatterbox who excels at everything but studying. Serving as Se Ri’s right-hand strategist, he brings humor and precision to her confession mission. Se Ri’s world also shines brighter with her loyal best friends, affectionately called “Sol.Bang.Ul”—Ma Sol Ji (Choi Gyu Ri), Bang Ha Young (Lee So Yi), and Jung Da Ul (Son Hee Rim). Always by her side, this trio brings warmth and energy as her strongest supporters. On the other hand, Se Ri’s curly-haired rival Go In Jeong (Kang Mina) turns heads when she suddenly shows up with sleek, straight hair, sparking fresh tension. Veteran actors further enrich the film: Hong Eun Hee plays Baek Jang Mi, Yoon Seok’s mother and owner of the only salon in Busan offering the famous Seoul magic straight perm, who becomes pivotal to Se Ri’s mission. Kim Ji Young takes on the role of Se Ri’s mother Bok Hee, while Ryu Seung Soo plays Se Ri’s father Park Hong Il, the school’s official photographer who also passed down his curly-hair genes to Se Ri. “Love Untangled” will premiere on August 29.
Watch: Han Suk Kyu’s True Identity Remains A Mystery As Bae Hyeon Seong Probes In “Shin’s Project” Teaser
tvN’s upcoming drama “Shin’s Project” has unveiled a new teaser! “Shin’s Project” is a new drama starring Han Suk Kyu as Mr. Shin, a former legendary negotiator who now runs a modest chicken restaurant while hiding a mysterious secret. A neighborhood hero who takes it upon himself to mediate conflicts and assist people through seemingly unwinnable situations, Mr. Shin willingly jumps into other people’s conflicts to settle their problems and deliver justice. The newly released teaser opens with the humble view of Mr. Shin’s alleyway chicken restaurant. Amid the laid-back atmosphere, he continues frying chicken despite frantic calls from his employee Jo Philip (Bae Hyeon Seong), casually replying, “Why, I’m busy,” as he stays focused on his craft. Over his skilled hands, the words “The Chicken Master” appear on screen, hinting at his exceptional abilities. Other scenes reveal a very different side of Mr. Shin. When rookie lawyer Jo Philip points out, “You just violated the road traffic law,” Shin brushes it off with ease, dramatically tears up an important-looking document, and playfully gestures as if telling someone to zip their lips. His free-spirited approach to rules has earned him another nickname: “The Master of Shortcuts.” Just when his unpredictable actions raise more questions, Mr. Shin switches into “Master Negotiator” mode. Calls for his help echo from all directions, and he expertly resolves a tense conflict, impressing everyone around him. After closing the deal, he cheerfully announces, “Negotiation complete!” and punctuates the moment with a playful wink. Watching it all unfold, Jo Philip can no longer hold back his curiosity. “I’m really curious… what exactly is it that you do?” he asks. Calmly, Shin replies, “Me? I’m Mr. Shin,” leaving a cryptic impression that deepens the mystery surrounding him even further. Watch the teaser below: “Shin’s Project” is set to premiere on September 15 at 8:50 p.m. KST.
Song Seung Heon Shows Up In Time To Help Uhm Jung Hwa Amid Chaos In “My Troublesome Star”
Song Seung Heon comes in time to rescue Uhm Jung Hwa in tonight’s episode of “My Troublesome Star”! “My Troublesome Star” is a romantic comedy about Korea’s biggest star Im Se Ra (Jang Da Ah), who mysteriously vanishes and wakes up one day as Bong Cheong Ja (Uhm Jung Hwa), an ordinary middle-aged woman. Song Seung Heon stars as Dokgo Chul, a former detective who helps Bong Cheong Ja as she struggles to navigate life after losing 25 years in the blink of an eye. Spoilers The previous episode showed Bong Cheong Ja struggling to adjust to reality after losing 25 years of her life. She came to accept that she was no longer Im Se Ra, the “nation’s goddess” adored by all, but an ordinary, middle-aged woman unknown to anyone. The chaotic reunion between the amnesiac Bong Cheong Ja and Dokgo Chul, now a demoted police officer, also raised anticipation for what comes next. In particular, Dokgo Chul’s suspicion about Bong Cheong Ja’s traffic accident added intrigue to the mystery of the years she lost. The newly released stills capture Bong Cheong Ja at the center of a gosiwon (Korean accommodation) commotion. Surrounded and questioned by the residents, her flustered expression hints that something serious has happened. Caught not in cheers or affectionate looks but in suspicious stares, she faces a situation she has never encountered before, and her reddened eyes reveal her sadness. In the following still, Dokgo Chul’s commanding presence stands out. Appearing like a black knight once again at the worst moment of Bong Cheong Ja’s life, his arrival raises questions about whether he can resolve the crisis. The next still captures Bong Cheong Ja, who looks as if she’s entranced and drawn to something. Go Hee Young (Lee El) won the Cannes Best Actress award, and all eyes are on how Bong Cheong Ja will react to the news that Go Hee Young achieved the dream she once aspired to. The complex emotions in Bong Cheong Ja’s wistful and sorrowful gaze further heighten anticipation for her comeback as she strives to reclaim the position she lost. The production team shared, “In today’s episode, Bong Cheong Ja faces a decisive moment as she begins her comeback. Look forward to the exciting changes in her relationship with Dokgo Chul, and the turning point that opens a new chapter in her dream.” The next episode of “My Troublesome Star” airs on August 25 at 10 p.m. KST.
Park Hee Soon’s Harrowing Injury Leaves Park Min Young And Joo Jong Hyuk In Tears In “Confidence Queen”

A Korean adaptation of the 2018 Japanese comedy drama “The Confidence Man JP,” “Confidence Queen” follows three con artists with extraordinary talents as they pull off elaborate scams targeting villains from all walks of life. Park Min Young stars as Yoon Yi Rang, a con artist with an IQ of 165 and a genius-level intellect in the top 1 percent. With her eccentric thinking and cold charisma, she leads the team in their intricate schemes. Park Hee Soon plays James, the eldest member and trusted mentor whose steady presence grounds the team. With his commanding yet composed charisma, sharp instincts, refined humor, and free-spirited edge, James exudes a multifaceted charm that sets him apart. The newly released stills capture James in a harrowing state—hospitalized and unconscious after a severe injury. Lying motionless in a patient gown with a neck brace and casts on all four limbs, he paints a grim picture. The sight leaves Yoon Yi Rang (Park Min Young) and Myung Gu Ho (Joo Jong Hyuk) visibly shaken as they arrive at his hospital room, their tearful expressions heightening the ominous atmosphere. The production team commented, “This scene highlights Park Hee Soon’s weighty influence and plays an essential role in driving the story forward.

Meanwhile, Lee Hyo Ri came to realize her feelings for Ryu Bo Hyeon and made a bold, heartfelt confession in the rain. The newly released stills capture even more developments. Lee Ji An, who recently opened a restaurant in Cheonghae with her best friend Kim Sun Young (Kim Sun Young), is seen leaving her guests behind as she anxiously waits for Ryu Jeong Seok—who had promised to be her steadfast support. Keeping his word, he hurries over and even puts on an apron to help, hinting at how much closer the two have grown.
