Netflix's new series "Trunk," directed by Kim Kyu-tae of the drama "Our Blues" and starring actors Gong Yoo and Seo Hyun-jin, has confirmed its release date to Nov. 29.
'Trunk' is a mystery melodrama about a secret marriage service that begins to be revealed by a trunk floating on a lake and the strange marriage story of two men and women in it. Based on the novel of the same name by Kim Ryeo-ryeong, who drew attention for her bold material and ingenious imagination, director Kim Kyu-tae, who directed dramas "Our Blues" and "It's Okay, It's Love," and Park Eun-young, who wrote "Hwarang," will join forces to present an unconventional and sensuous mystery melodrama.
In this work, we will delve deeply into the complex emotions of characters related to "marriage" such as love, compassion, salvation, obsession, desire, loneliness, and emptiness, and portray their relationships in depth.
In particular, the meeting between Seo Hyun-jin and Gong Yoo raises expectations for the work. Expectations are high for the synergy between the two actors, who will marry "Noh In-ji" (Seo Hyun-jin), who became alone because of his marriage, and "Han Jung-won" (played by Gong Yoo), who became terribly lonely, and two people with their own secrets and losses, who will closely solve the process of filling the deficiency.

The teaser poster released on the same day catches the eye with the strong presence of Noh In-ji, who entered Han Jung-won's space with an impressive trunk.
The dry expressions and empty eyes of the two facing each other are strangely similar. Han Jung-won, who stands as if trapped in a cool spiral staircase, and Noh In-ji, who sits at the end of it, and the colorful but precarious-looking chandelier amplify the tension. On top of that, the phrase "real and fake, a secret marriage in which everything is intertwined" makes me even more curious about the story of Noh In-ji and Han Jeong-won.
'Trunk' will be released worldwide on Netflix on November 29.
