The shocking scenario: abandoned children ready to do anything to survive

At the heart of this disturbing tale, Yum Jung-ah as Kim Se-heeA respected president of a hospital and a charitable foundation, she is also the head of an illegal adoption network. Guided by her deviant vision that only "good genes" deserve to survive, she establishes herself as a chilling figure. Her poster sets the tone: "My job is to create humans."

Facing her, Kim Ah-hyun, played by Won Jin-ah, is a survivor. Rejected after adoption, she returns stronger, driven by anger and a desire for justice. Her tagline: "The parents who threw us away... it's our turn to eliminate them." The actress hopes the public will support these children who refuse to bend in the face of pain.

Choi Young-joon as Woo Tae-sika guilt-ridden man who tries to save the children left behind. His protective gaze and his promise - "I'm going to save you" - contrast with the ambient darkness of the drama. He emphasizes that this scenario, though fictional, is perhaps not so far removed from a certain reality.

The actor, who has directed most of his own action scenes, describes the drama as a "pizza combination", where each character brings his or her own flavor to the story.

Carried by an intense cast, omnipresent dramatic tension and a subject as sensitive as it is hard-hitting, The Defects is shaping up to be one of this summer's most memorable thrillers. Join us on July 21 to find out just how far these broken children will go to survive... and seek revenge.
