Mark your calendars—Jung Kyung Ho is returning to the small screen in a bold new role as “Labor Attorney Noh Moo Jin,” which officially premieres on May 30 at 9:50 p.m. KST. The upcoming drama is penned by Kim Bo Tong, the acclaimed writer behind “D.P.,” and directed by Yim Soon Rye, known for “Little Forest” and “The Point Men.”
Blending legal drama with supernatural flair, the series follows Noh Moo Jin, a pragmatic labor attorney who stumbles into the bizarre world of spirits. After a near-death experience, he gains the uncanny ability to see ghosts—an unexpected twist that completely alters the trajectory of his life and career.
Noh Moo Jin isn’t your typical hero. He’s more concerned with scraping together enough to pay his office rent than fighting for justice. But when the dead begin seeking his help to resolve unresolved labor disputes, he finds himself unwillingly drawn into their world. What begins as reluctant involvement soon evolves into a journey of growth, purpose, and survival.
The newly dropped poster adds intrigue, showing a visibly rattled Moo Jin surrounded by spectral figures. With the haunting tagline “The 180-day journey of fulfilling a labor contract—at the cost of life,” the show promises a gripping blend of tension, humor, and heart.
Jung Kyung Ho is expected to deliver a dynamic performance in this genre-bending series, which shifts seamlessly between gritty reality and otherworldly encounters. With elements of comedy, action, and the supernatural all wrapped in a unique labor law setting, “Labor Attorney Noh Moo Jin” is shaping up to be one of the most original K-dramas of the year.
Stay tuned for a ride that’s as emotionally charged as it is thrilling—ghosts, lawsuits, and all.
