--
ASTON OTONITY – Jang Ki Yong and Oh Jung Se have been officially announced as the lead actors in MBC’s new drama titled “Law of Lines,” which is scheduled to air in the first half of 2027. This announcement has heightened anticipation for their on-screen chemistry, given that the drama explores the theme of office politics filled with power struggles, workplace alliances, and ambition.
“Drakor” is short for “Korean Drama,” referring to television series or web series produced in South Korea in the Korean language. Popular globally as part of the Hallyu (Korean Wave), drakor is known for its high production quality, diverse storylines, and captivating performances that appeal to a wide audience.
Korean dramas offer a realistic portrayal of the social life of their society through dramas, films, and television programs—all forms of mass media. One example is the emphasis on the concept of beauty in every drama series.
This encompasses both physical beauty and inner beauty—such as good behavior, polite speech, and a caring attitude toward others. Koreans believe that beauty is not limited to physical appearance alone but must also play an important role in social life within the surrounding community.
Korean dramas are an art form originating in South Korea, a culture that has spread not only within South Korea but also to nearly every corner of the world, including Indonesia.
Korean dramas come in a variety of genres, such as action, historical, school, medical, legal, and even horror-comedy. Although most dramas contain romantic elements and deeply emotional themes, some may also feature tragedy or themes related to everyday life.
“Law of Lines” tells the story of Tak Do Il, an ordinary bank employee with no strong connections or influential background. Although he began his career with little support, Tak Do Il uses his intelligence and understanding of office politics to challenge the bank’s established power structure.
This drama will explore how employees navigate competition, hidden alliances, and difficult decisions in their quest to gain influence within a major financial institution. Jang Ki Yong will play Tak Do Il, a talented bank employee who has mastered the art of office politics.
Although he graduated from a regional university and lacks influential connections, Tak Do Il knows how to turn difficult situations to his advantage. His quick thinking and strategic decision-making help him challenge those in power at the bank.
Jang Ki Yong has previously starred in various popular dramas such as “Come and Hug Me,” “Search: WWW,” “Now, We Are Breaking Up,” and “The Atypical Family.” He also showcased his romantic and comedic acting skills in “Dynamite Kiss.”
Meanwhile, Oh Jung Se will play Chun Kyung Ho, vice president of the sales division at Nara Bank. Chun Kyung Ho is a successful executive who built his career despite having only a high school education. He is now considered the strongest candidate to become the bank’s next president.
As an experienced corporate leader, Chun Kyung Ho is embroiled in a complex strategic battle with Tak Do Il. Their relationship is expected to be a central focus of the drama, with both characters using their intelligence and political skills to navigate the bank’s competitive environment.
