JTBC's upcoming Wednesday-Thursday drama, The Miracle Brothers, has released a captivating preview a week ahead of its premiere.

Written by Kim Ji Woo and directed by Park Chan HongThe Miracle Brothers is a mystery drama that follows the story of an aspiring writer Yook Dong Joo, burdened by debt, who longs to become a successful writer. Alongside him is Kang San, a boy with unique abilities. The duo embarks on a quest to uncover the truth that transcends the boundaries of time, crafting miracles along the way.

The preview centers on Kang San's lost memories, revealing fragments of the unique storyline that is intended to captivate viewers in the episodes to come.

Dong Joo (Jung Woo) stumbles upon the manuscript of "God Is Dead" by sheer coincidence, and publishes it, rising to the stardom as a best-selling author. However, the murder case in the novel ominously comes to reality, leading Detective Park Hyeon Soo (Park Yoo Rim), to see Dong Joo as a prime suspect.

Anxious about the exposure of his plagiarism, Dong Joo responds to Hyeon Soo's inquiries about the origin and creation of the novel with a light-hearted laugh, questioning, "Is imagination a crime?". However, a sense of bewilderment is evident in his face and voice.

Dong Joo's uneasiness escalates when he encounters Kang San, a boy who lost his memories after a tragic traffic accident. As Kang San gradually recovers fragments of his lost memories, Dong Joo asks, "What do you remember?" to which Kang San cryptically responds, "It seems I have turned into a monster". 

The connection between the real owner of the novel and Kang San raises suspicion, amplifying the impact of Dong Joo's remark: "I envy those who have no memories they want to forget and erase. Memories are truly wretched." Furthermore, he says, "Hell is empty, and all the devils are here", and the following scenes portray a series of brutal and inexplicable murders, while Dong Joo's encounter with the supernaturally gifted Kang San heightens the suspense to its zenith.

The production team commented, "Mystery explodes from the very first episode of The Miracle Brothers, enveloping viewers in its grip. We invite you to join Dong Joo and Kang San on their enthralling journey as they embark on their quest for truth, uncovering the identity of the novel's true author, delving into the eerie correlation between the unfolding real-life murder cases and Kang San's haunting memories, which he yearns to forget and erase".
