Netflix is all set to add another thrilling Korean show to its list in the month of August. The Swoon dropped A Model Family Trailer on YouTube and social media after teasing fans with stills a few days ago. The crime drama stars Jung Woo as Dong-ha, Park Hee-soon as Gwang-cheol, Yoon Jin-seo as Eun-joo and Park Ji-yeon as Joo-hyun.
In the trailer, we meet Dong-ha, a professor who needs money to get his son treated. Dong-ha’s wife, Eun-Joo is upset with him for not being able to provide money when the family needs it the most. One day, Dong-ha finds lots of money inside a vehicle. The professor takes that money without thinking much about the consequences.
Unfortunately, the money he takes belongs to a number 2 man in the drug dealing market, Gwang-Cheol. When Cheol finds out about Dong-Ha, he gets him involved in illicit drug activities/supply. Dong-Ha is in trouble as he not only fails to help his family but has to focus on the problems that he walked into.
To add more to the trouble, there’s Detective Joo-Hyun, the leader of an anti-drug crime team who is investigating Gwang-Cheol. During Cheol’s investigation, Hyun also learns about Dong-Ha. He’s shocked to see that a model family man, a professor like him, is a part of the business.
What will be Dong-Ha’s fate? Will he get caught and lose his family? We will find out when the show releases on Netflix. The makers describe the Korean thriller as, “They’re the perfect family on paper. In reality, they’re cash-strapped and on the verge of divorce. The husband comes across money that belongs to a drug ring—could this be their saving grace or their worst nightmare?”
