The Impossible Heir has unveiled stills featuring Lee Jae Wook and Lee Jun Young.
The Impossible Heir tells the story of people of desperate people aiming to acquire the throne of the wealthiest conglomerate in South Korea. The characters are driven by the desire to reach the pinnacle.
The most anticipated aspect of The Impossible Heir is undoubtedly seeing Lee Jae Wook (Alchemy of Souls, Extraordinary You) and Lee Jun Young (Class of Lies, Badland Hunters, Brave Citizen) in one frame.
Han Tae Oh (Lee Jae Wook), the son of a murderer, and Kang In Ha (Lee Jun Young), the illegitimate child of a chaebol family, form an alliance to seize the throne of Kang Oh Group, the top conglomerate in South Korea.
Abandoned by his chaebol family, In Ha felt the need to prove his worth. To do that, he needed someone with a genius intellect like Han Tae Oh by his side. On the other hand, Han Tae Oh couldn't climb the social ladder on his own and needed an ally like Kang In Ha.
Tae Oh decides to become a dog that raises his owner, and In Ha has set his mind on becoming the owner of Kang Oh Group.
Though they have a give-and-take relationship, there are moments when they grow suspicious of each other.
Evident from their sharp gazes, they maintain a sense of caution towards each other. As the duo form an alliance out of necessity and desperation, their character dynamics promise to keep viewers entertained with twists and tension.
The K-drama is directed by Missing: The Other Side director Min Yeon Hong, and the script is penned by Choi Won.
The Impossible Heir is set to premiere worldwide exclusively on Disney+ on February 28.
