Watch: Lee Joo Young's Life Is Turned Upside Down In Teaser For New OCN Drama "Times"

Feb 08, 2021

OCN’s upcoming drama “Times” has released a preview of the first episode!

“Times” is a time-warp political mystery drama starring Lee Joo Young as Seo Jung In, the daughter of South Korean president Seo Gi Tae (Kim Young Chul). Through a phone call, she is mysteriously connected to a journalist named Lee Jin Woo (Lee Seo Jin) who is living five years in the past. Using this, she attempts to prevent the death of her father—but stumbles upon a dangerous truth in the process.

In the first episode preview, Seo Jung In congratulates her father, Seo Gi Tae, as he wins the presidential election. It is also revealed that Seo Jung In works as an anchorwoman on a news program. But at the sound of a gunshot, Seo Jung In’s world is turned upside down. She answers a phone call from someone she doesn’t recognize, who turns out to be the reporter Lee Jin Woo.

However, Lee Jin Woo seems to be unaware that he is calling someone in the future. He is shown to be a bold and unconventional reporter, running away from people who are chasing him and yelling from the back of a taxi, “The article is going out tomorrow so tell them to sue! I’m Lee Jin Woo from Times!”

Meanwhile, Seo Jung In witnesses her father being shot, to her shock and horror, but she is also confused when her place of work doesn’t recognize her and security escorts her out of the building. In voice-over, she says, “In one morning, everything changed. As if it had been manipulated.” In the end, Lee Jin Woo seems to be the only one she can turn to, as he says impatiently through the phone call, “You said that you’d do an interview to help Seo Gi Tae. You said you wanted to help your father.”

“Times” premieres on February 20 at 10:30 p.m. KST. Check out the preview below!
