In the lead roles, we find a cast as solid as it is endearing:
- Lee Sun-bin embodies Jung Da-hae,
- Ra Mi-ran play Kang Eun-sang,
- Jo Aram is Kim Ji-song,
- and Kim Young-dae completes the line-up as Ham Ji-woo.
The new poster unveiled by MBC sets the tone: the 3 heroines, phones in hand, flash hopeful smiles in the midst of a gloomy subway setting. A powerful image, both luminous and symbolic.
The metro, nicknamed "the train from hell" by Korean workersbecomes a powerful metaphor. For these three women, it could well become the train to the moona destination often evoked in the world of cryptos to symbolize dazzling wealth.
The poster slogan, "Do we also have... that famous secret move to change everything?"reflects this quest for transformation, for revenge on a life that leaves few options. Behind the screens, a whole world of dreams, risks and disillusionment awaits them.
With To the MoonMBC takes on a contemporary subject rarely explored in depth in dramas: that of the digital investments and their human consequencesespecially for those who have nothing to lose... but everything to gain. Scheduled to premiere on September 19 on MBC (international broadcaster pending).
