Hidden Agenda Special (2023)

This is how you promote your series

After I watched the pilot trailer of Hidden Agenda months ago, I became pretty hyped for this series. My excitement -- and that of many other viewers it seems -- waned after the release of the official trailer, which is in all aspects inferior to the pilot one, and I began to worry that JoongDunk will again get the short end of the stick with this project.

However, now that I have seen the special episode, I am happy to say that it eased my worries. Listening to the cast and the director talk about the series with so much love and excitement was a joy. The atmosphere on set feels amazing -- from the actors to the staff, everyone seems really happy to be there. Joong and Dunk's chemistry is even more charming, romantic, and natural, and Aou and Boom are a great pairing too. It was interesting to hear what the actors have to say about their characters and each other. There is also a funny behind the scenes story with Boom and his unplanned method acting.

Overall, whether you remain excited about Hidden Agenda or have lost enthusiasm after the underwhelming official trailer, you will most likely enjoy this special episode. There are snippets of the OSTs too.
