As the premiere date of Delightfully Deceitful approaches near, tvN has unveiled a set of character posters, heightening the anticipation surrounding the drama.

The posters portray the ensemble cast in their respective characters, which are: the unempathetic swindler Ro Um (Chun Woo Hee), lawyer Han Moo Young (Kim Dong Wook) with hyper-empathy syndrome, veteran hacker Jung Da Jung (Lee Yeon), versatile engineer Nasa (Yoo Hee Je), and language genius Ringo (Hong Seung Bum), Ro Um’s probation officer Go Yo Han (Yoon Park), and Moo Young’s psychiatrist Mo Jae In (Park So Jin). 

The group poster is of particular interest as it hints at the presence of an unidentified observer, who has been collecting information on the characters. The polished nail on the bottom-right corner of the poster and the expanding flame on the top-left corner, which is burning the file, pique curiosity about the hidden character and their intentions behind compiling information on the seven people. 

Furthermore, the checkmark on Han Moo Young's profile gives an uncanny vibe, hinting at the enigmatic observer vigilantly monitoring his actions.

The inclusion of Ro Um’s probation officer Go Yo Han, and Moo Young’s psychiatrist Mo Jae In (Park So Jin), on the list of targets, sends chills down the spine. The extent to which the observer has delved into Ro Um and Moo Young’s private lives, as well as the reasons behind their focus on these seven people, sets an intriguing premise. 

In this intricate web of revenge, Lee Ro Um and Han Moo Young find themselves navigating the fine line between collaboration and confrontation, ensuring Ro Um remains within the bounds of the law. The file folder in the hands of an unknown being that seems to have infiltrated their secrets amplifies the allure of Delightfully Deceitful and its captivating narrative.
