MBC’s New Fantasy Hit: ‘Noh Moo-jin, the Labor Attorney’ Unveils Stills of Unlucky Yet Endearing Hero
K-Drama Aficionados Anticipate Yim Soon-rye’s Directorial Debut on TV, Starring Jung Kyung-ho as a Down-on-His-Luck Labor Consultant Who Sees Ghosts
MBC’s Latest Fantasy-Comic Drama ‘Noh Moo-jin’ Premieres June 30
Anticipation is building for MBC’s new Friday-Saturday drama, ‘Noh Moo-jin, the Labor Attorney’, set to air its first episode on June 30 at 9:50 p.m. The show promises a unique blend of comedy, fantasy, and workplace drama centered on a labor attorney with an unusual ability: he can see ghosts.
Jung Kyung-ho Transforms Into A Luckless Hero
Renowned for his versatility in professional roles, Jung Kyung-ho once again reinvents himself—this time as Noh Moo-jin, a labor attorney nicknamed for the character ‘Moo’ that means ‘nothing’. His life is defined by a comical lack of luck, money, and awareness, making his journey both touching and hilariously relatable.
Early Stills Show Off Hard-Luck Comedy
Newly released stills reveal the extent of Moo-jin’s adversity: we see him tearfully downing soju and, in another scene, covered in dust, unkempt after what can only be described as a catastrophic day. First episodes will chronicle his hapless transformation from a humble office worker who quits his job in pursuit of something greater—only to find fate stacking failure upon failure.
Comic Relief Through Relentless Misfortune
Despite relentless setbacks, Moo-jin’s stubborn spirit keeps him striving, even as he stumbles through one unlucky incident after another on his way to becoming a certified labor attorney. The show’s creative team teases that Jung Kyung-ho’s ‘painfully funny’ performance will capture viewers’ hearts in the opening episodes as Moo-jin’s journey wades through personal and supernatural chaos.
K-Drama Powerhouse Creative Team
‘Noh Moo-jin, the Labor Attorney’ draws K-drama watchers’ attention for another reason: this is director Yim Soon-rye’s (Forever the Moment, The Negotiation) first drama series, penned by Kim Bo-tong (D.P.) and Yoo Seung-hee (I Can Speak). The collaboration between these renowned film and streaming talents signals a high-quality, genre-blending spectacle.
Mark your calendars: MBC’s ‘Noh Moo-jin’ premieres June 30, bringing a fresh, supernatural workplace comedy to your screens.
