tvN’s upcoming drama “Shin’s Project” has unveiled its first still of Bae Hyeon Seong in character!
“Shin’s Project” is a comedy series that follows the story of Mr. Shin, a man who takes it upon himself to mediate conflicts and assist people through seemingly unwinnable situations. Han Suk Kyu stars as Mr. Shin, a former legendary negotiator who now runs a modest chicken restaurant. He willingly rushes into every conflict, settles problems, and delivers justice as a neighborhood hero.
Bae Hyeon Seong plays Jo Philip, a man who, with natural intelligence and consistent effort, has always stayed at the top and enjoyed a smooth life. Just before starting his career as a judge, he unexpectedly lands a job through a connection at a fried chicken restaurant run by Mr. Shin, marking a major turning point in his life.
Jo Philip’s resume, submitted to the fried chicken restaurant, stands out for its impressive credentials. He entered and graduated from the police academy at the top of his class, passed the law school entrance exam with the highest score, and ranked first in the judge appointment exam—a record worthy of an elite among elites. In the “special skills” section, he listed “ranking first in the entire school” and “providing legal counsel,” showcasing the abilities of the rookie legal professional and raising expectations for his performance.
The remark, “If this is truly Judge Kim Sang Geun’s order, then I have to survive,” shows Jo Philip’s determination and his willingness to accept the situation with humility. Attention is on why Jo Philip, who dreamed of becoming a judge, is starting work at a fried chicken restaurant instead of a courtroom, and what connection Judge Kim Sang Geun, who sent him there, might have with Mr. Shin.
The stills show Jo Philip’s bewilderment as he begins working at the fried chicken restaurant just before launching his legal career. Dressed neatly in a suit, he carries the demeanor of a legal professional, while in another moment, wearing an apron and packaging fried chicken, he displays the awkward expression of a rookie employee trying to adapt to reality.
Jo Philip is set to begin a journey of growth as he witnesses everything from small, ongoing neighborhood disputes in daily life outside the courtroom to real social issues.
“Shin’s Project” is set to premiere on September 15 at 8:50 p.m. KST.
