Who else wants to volunteer in helping Cha Seung Won win the case of Kim Soo Hyun in the series One Ordinary Day?
Coupang Play’s first series, One Ordinary Day has fully got our attention by unveiling teaser photos of Kim Soo Hyun. To be released in November, Kim plays the role of Hyun-soo, an ordinary college student who becomes a murder suspect overnight. He is then helped by third-rate lawyer Shin Joon-han, played by Cha Seung Won.
Scheduled for an 8-episode run, the hardcore crime drama threads on the story of ordinary college student Kim Hyun-soo who, after one drunken night of fun, finds himself the prime suspect in the gruesome murder of a woman he had spent the night with.
With all circumstantial evidence pointing at him and the case receiving increasing scrutiny in the media and on social media, the prosecution is eager to declare him guilty.
The only person who comes forward to take his case is Shin Joong-han (played by Cha Seung Won), a small-time lawyer who barely passed the bar exam. He decides to help Hyun-soo on his intuition that he is innocent.
With the odds stacked against them, the pair must put up an intense fight to bring justice and reveal the real perpetrator in a case that will not only change their lives but also shake the criminal justice system of the country.
